Django import export Line number: 1 - u"Column 'id' not found

问题

I am trying to import excel documents into a Django DB. I have added the following code to admin.py and model.py. There seems to be an error in the development of Django. I have read through several different documentations about how to fix this error. But I am still a little lost on how to implement it exactly.

In the Trace it keeps saying that my excel document needs an id field. There is no id field in my excel docs nor did I tell my model to look for an id field.

The documentation that I have found states that I should use get_or_init_instance here:

https://django-import-export.readthedocs.org/en/latest/import_workflow.html

Any help that you guys could give would be great.

admin.py

class VinCasesAndCampaignsResource(resources.ModelResource):
    published = fields.Field(column_name='published_date')

    def get_instance(self, instance_loaders, row):
        return False

    class Meta:
        model = VinCasesAndCampaigns
        widgets = {}
        fields = ('VIN','LatestOpenCaseID','LatestClosedCaseID', 
                  'OpenDate', 'CloseDate', 'HasCampaigns',)
        import_id_fields = ['VIN']
        export_order = ('VIN',)
        exclude = ('id')

model.py

class VinCasesAndCampaigns(models.Model):
    VIN = models.CharField(max_length=30)
    LatestOpenCaseID = models.DateField()
    LatestClosedCaseID = models.DateField()
    OpenDate = models.DateField()
    CloseDate = models.DateField()
    HasCampaigns = models.BooleanField(default = False)
    HasOpenCampaigns = models.BooleanField(default = False)
    HasCases = models.BooleanField(default = False)
    HasEstimates = models.BooleanField(default = False)
    HasDwell = models.BooleanField(default = False)
    HasClaims = models.BooleanField(default = False)

    exclude = ('id',)

Trace:

回答1:

Here is a working example. I also used "exclude" and it works and no need to add exclude = ('id',) in models.py. My data set does not contain "id" field.

Just create an empty column namely id before and then import the same file via Django import_export.

Make sure id column should be of your first column in the CSC or Excel file

回答3:

include field id in the field of ModelResource

fields = ('id','VIN','LatestOpenCaseID','LatestClosedCaseID', 
              'OpenDate', 'CloseDate', 'HasCampaigns',)

and in your excel file add a column with filed id with empty values. this add a new field with autoincrement.

file.xls

id  VIN  OpenDate ...

    24   05-11-2018
