How to access model's class level variable in data migration?

Question

Here is my model.

Poll(models.Model):
   title = models.CharField(max_length=1024)
   MY_VAR = [\'my_class_level_attribute\'] # I want to access this


        

Answer 1

You should be able to import the model

from my_app.models import Poll

If you do this, you shouldn't delete the Poll model or the MY_VAR attribute, otherwise your migrations will stop working.

Answer 2

I think you can't access model method in migration. I found the answer here How to call a static methods on a django model class during a south migration
