Use historycalRecords as default model in view class-CodePudding

I am using HistorycalRecords as table member

from simple_history.models import HistoricalRecords
class Delivery(BaseModel):
    history = HistoricalRecords(
        excluded_fields=['created_by', 'updated_by', 'updated_at'])

It create another table automatically named such as myapp_historicaldelivery

Now I want to use historical table itself as default model of view.

Because I would like to show the list of changed points.

class ActionLogListView(LoginRequiredMixin, ListSearchView):
    template_name = "message_logs/action_log.html"
    form_class = ActionLogSearchForm
    model = Delivery.history // want to set here.

However it shows error, maybe because Delivery.history is not model.

TypeError: object of type 'NoneType' has no len()

HistorycalModel source code is here

https://github.com/jazzband/django-simple-history/blob/master/simple_history/models.py

How can I treat history as model class to show the list in view?

CodePudding user response：

Use Model.history.model to access the history model for use in the generic views

class ActionLogListView(LoginRequiredMixin, ListSearchView):
    template_name = "message_logs/action_log.html"
    form_class = ActionLogSearchForm
    model = Delivery.history.model
