在我的模型中我有:

class Alias(MyBaseModel):
remote_image = models.URLField(
    max_length=500, null=True,
    help_text='''
        A URL that is downloaded and cached for the image.
        Only used when the alias is made
    '''
)
    image = models.ImageField(
        upload_to='alias', default='alias-default.png',
        help_text="An image representing the alias"
    )

    
    def save(self, *args, **kw):
        if (not self.image or self.image.name == 'alias-default.png') and self.remote_image :
            try :
                data = utils.fetch(self.remote_image)
                image = StringIO.StringIO(data)
                image = Image.open(image)
                buf = StringIO.StringIO()
                image.save(buf, format='PNG')
                self.image.save(
                    hashlib.md5(self.string_id).hexdigest() + ".png", ContentFile(buf.getvalue())
                )
            except IOError :
                pass

这在remote_image第一次改变的时候工作得很好。

当有人修改了别名上的remote_image时,我如何获取一个新的图像?其次,是否有更好的方法来缓存远程映像?

如果你正在使用一个表单,你可以使用表单的changed_data (docs):

class AliasForm(ModelForm):

    def save(self, commit=True):
        if 'remote_image' in self.changed_data:
            # do things
            remote_image = self.cleaned_data['remote_image']
            do_things(remote_image)
        super(AliasForm, self).save(commit)

    class Meta:
        model = Alias

修改@ivanperelivskiy的回答:

@property
def _dict(self):
    ret = {}
    for field in self._meta.get_fields():
        if isinstance(field, ForeignObjectRel):
            # foreign objects might not have corresponding objects in the database.
            if hasattr(self, field.get_accessor_name()):
                ret[field.get_accessor_name()] = getattr(self, field.get_accessor_name())
            else:
                ret[field.get_accessor_name()] = None
        else:
            ret[field.attname] = getattr(self, field.attname)
    return ret

这里使用了django 1.10的公共方法get_fields。这使得代码更经得起未来的考验,但更重要的是还包括了外键和edititable =False的字段。

作为参考,这里是.fields的实现

@cached_property
def fields(self):
    """
    Returns a list of all forward fields on the model and its parents,
    excluding ManyToManyFields.

    Private API intended only to be used by Django itself; get_fields()
    combined with filtering of field properties is the public API for
    obtaining this field list.
    """
    # For legacy reasons, the fields property should only contain forward
    # fields that are not private or with a m2m cardinality. Therefore we
    # pass these three filters as filters to the generator.
    # The third lambda is a longwinded way of checking f.related_model - we don't
    # use that property directly because related_model is a cached property,
    # and all the models may not have been loaded yet; we don't want to cache
    # the string reference to the related_model.
    def is_not_an_m2m_field(f):
        return not (f.is_relation and f.many_to_many)

    def is_not_a_generic_relation(f):
        return not (f.is_relation and f.one_to_many)

    def is_not_a_generic_foreign_key(f):
        return not (
            f.is_relation and f.many_to_one and not (hasattr(f.remote_field, 'model') and f.remote_field.model)
        )

    return make_immutable_fields_list(
        "fields",
        (f for f in self._get_fields(reverse=False)
         if is_not_an_m2m_field(f) and is_not_a_generic_relation(f) and is_not_a_generic_foreign_key(f))
    )

你可以使用django-model-changes来做到这一点,而不需要额外的数据库查询:

from django.dispatch import receiver
from django_model_changes import ChangesMixin

class Alias(ChangesMixin, MyBaseModel):
   # your model

@receiver(pre_save, sender=Alias)
def do_something_if_changed(sender, instance, **kwargs):
    if 'remote_image' in instance.changes():
        # do something

自从Django 1.8发布以来,你可以使用from_db类方法来缓存remote_image的旧值。然后在保存方法中,您可以比较字段的旧值和新值,以检查该值是否已更改。

@classmethod
def from_db(cls, db, field_names, values):
    new = super(Alias, cls).from_db(db, field_names, values)
    # cache value went from the base
    new._loaded_remote_image = values[field_names.index('remote_image')]
    return new

def save(self, force_insert=False, force_update=False, using=None,
         update_fields=None):
    if (self._state.adding and self.remote_image) or \
        (not self._state.adding and self._loaded_remote_image != self.remote_image):
        # If it is first save and there is no cached remote_image but there is new one, 
        # or the value of remote_image has changed - do your stuff!

从Django 1.8开始,就有了from_db方法,Serge提到过。事实上,Django文档中包含了这样一个特定的用例:

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/models/instances/#customizing-model-loading

下面是一个示例,展示如何记录从数据库加载的字段的初始值

最佳的解决方案可能是在保存模型实例之前不包括额外的数据库读取操作,也不包括任何进一步的django库。这就是为什么拉弗斯特的解决方案更可取。在管理站点的上下文中,可以简单地覆盖save_model-方法,并调用表单的has_changed方法,就像上面Sion的回答一样。你得到了类似这样的东西,利用Sion的例子设置,但使用changed_data来获得每一个可能的变化:

class ModelAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
   fields=['name','mode']
   def save_model(self, request, obj, form, change):
     form.changed_data #output could be ['name']
     #do somethin the changed name value...
     #call the super method
     super(self,ModelAdmin).save_model(request, obj, form, change)

覆盖save_model:

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.10/ref/contrib/admin/#django.contrib.admin.ModelAdmin.save_model

为字段内置changed_data-method:

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.10/ref/forms/api/#django.forms.Form.changed_data
