I am working on one python(django framework) project in which i have one user model which has 1000 users. I want to make one another column named priority id and need to put default id values in that priority id column accordingly (you can see it below).

ofcourse i can do it manually using admin panel but for 1000 users it is time consuming.

how do i change models.py or admin.py or something else to achieve this?

def save(self, *args, **kwargs):
    self.priority_id = self.id
    return super().save(*args, **kwargs)

CodePudding user response：

I don't know why you would ever want to do this, but you can achieve it by adding adding a BigAutoField to your user model. The field will then auto-increment the values for new users according to available ids.

In your models where you define the user, add following field.

priority_id = models.BigAutoField(null=False, unique=True)

well, i tried it using shell and it worked:

p = Users.objects.all()
for x in p:
    profile = Users.objects.get(pk=x.id)
    profile.priority_id= x.id
    profile.save()

you can use this for me its working fine first you have to create with a default value and then use this function in views and just call once it will update the value as in id.

    def update_value(request):
        totaldata = modelsName.objects.all()
        for j in totaldata:
            
            modelsName.objects.filter(id=j.id).update(myid=j.id)
            
    return HttpResponse('Success')
