Suppose my models.py is like so:
class Character(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=255)
is_the_chosen_one = models.BooleanField()
class Character(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=255)
is_the_chosen_one = models.BooleanField()
def clean(self):
from django.core.exceptions import ValidationError
c = Character.objects.filter(is_the_chosen_one__exact=True)
if c and self.is_the_chosen:
raise ValidationError("The chosen one is already here! Too late")
Doing this made the validation available in the basic admin form
