Answer 1

Don't call the _createHash() function in your field, but just pass the reference to the callable in your model, e.g.

hash_1 = models.CharField(max_length=10,default=_createHash,unique=True)

As Lennart Regebro mentioned in his answer, you'll get the same value for each time you start the server in your attempt.

The Django docs say this about it:

Field.default

The default value for the field. This can be a value or a callable object. If callable it will be called every time a new object is created.
