How to change status of the object automatically?-CodePudding

I am working on a project, aim of the project is that user creates announcement and I need to change is_active status to False automatically after 30 days so announcement be active 30 days but I have no idea how to do that, I am using Django Rest Framework and VueJs.

CodePudding user response：

You would need to have a task system set up, something like celery.

Then have a task that runs daily getting announcement objects with a created date of greater than 30 days.

Once you have those objects you can set the is_active status to False.

CodePudding user response：

You can create a custom command for django which you can run with crontab every day. With this command you select everything with a creation-date greater than 30 days

This is not all this is only Little help......

import datetime
import calendar

def add_months(sourcedate, months):
    month = sourcedate.month - 1   months
    year = sourcedate.year   month // 12
    month = month % 12   1
    day = min(sourcedate.day, calendar.monthrange(year,month)[1])
    return datetime.date(year, month, day)
