Django Current

One thing I've been experimenting with is model Mixins.  For example, the aim is to create small abstract classes that are each focused around a particular function.  These abstract classes can then be added to arbitrary models to apply those functions to models as desired. For example, say I define a RatingsFields abstract class and a TrackingFields abstract class.  These abstract classes can be mixed into any other model that we wish to add rating or tracking functionality to. core/mixins.py from djangoratings.fields import RatingField # 3rd party module class RatingFields(models.Model): rating = RatingField( range =5) # 5 possible rating values, 1-5 class Meta: abstract = True class TrackingFields(models.Model): deleted_on = models.DateTimeField(blank= True , null= True ) created = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add= True ) modified = models.DateTimeField(auto_now= True ) class Meta: abstract = True
