Tastypie obj_create - how to use newly created object?

问题

When a new item is created using Tastypie, I want to be able to add it to a user's attribute which is a many-to-many field. RIght now my obj_create looks like this:

  def obj_create(self, bundle, request=None, **kwargs):
    return super(GoalResource, self).obj_create(bundle, request, user=request.user)

I want to create the new object, but when I want to be able to add it to the request.user's attribute goal_list. But, what I have will immediately create the object in the database. How would I create the object and then add it to the user's goal_list attribute?

回答1:

You didn't show us your resource definition, but assuming you are using tastypie.resources.ModelResource as your base class, this should work:

def obj_create(self, bundle, request=None, **kwargs):
    bundle = super(GoalResource, self).obj_create(
        bundle, request, user=request.user)

    user = request.user
    user.goals.add( bundle.obj )
    user.save()
    return bundle

This is because the obj_create method of ModelResource class returns a bundle which contains the saved object (bundle.obj) and you can manipulate this object in your obj_create method as shown and only then return it.

I have also assumed that request.user contains a valid User object (i.e. authenticated), you need to make sure it does for above to work or you should add some error handling code for the case when it does not.

Hope this helps :)

I don't have enough reputation to comment yet so I figured I would put a second answer. The answer above is correct I just wanted to add that request no longer exists in the obj_create call. You can access the current request via bundle.request:

Thanks for the answer above, it helped me as well!
