Model Logs

Model logs is a Django app for storing changes of yours objects

Quick start

1. Add "model_log" to your INSTALLED_APPS setting like this:

   INSTALLED_APPS = [
       ...
       'model_log',
   ]
   

2. Add "ModelLogMiddleware" to your MIDDLEWARE setting like this:

   MIDDLEWARE = [
       ...
       'model_log.middleware.ModelLogMiddleware',
   ]
   

3. Run python manage.py migrate to create the "model_logs" models.

4. For adding or excluding the models you want to log, in the settings.py:

   MODELS_FOR_LOGGING = (
       'app.ClassName',    # logging only for this model
       'another_app'     # logging of all models in this app
   )
   
   MODELS_FOR_EXCLUDE = (
       'app.ClassName',    # excluding from logging only for this model
   )
   

5. To override Django's default view to show the history of a log, use LogModelAdmin instead of ModelAdmin:

   class ExampleAdmin(LogModelAdmin):
       pass
