Re: IntegrityError with proxy model but not with parent?

Hi,

As long as I know, a model form needs the fields to be included in order to get validation working, so I suspect you did something like this:

class ProxyForm(forms.ModelForm):

    class Meta:

        model = models.Myproxy

        fields = ('name', )

Since stuff field is not included in the form fields validation doesn't work for it, however you can get it working with something like this:

class ProxyForm(forms.ModelForm):

    stuff = forms.CharField(widget=forms.HiddenInput, initial='stuff')

    class Meta:

        model = models.Myproxy

        fields = ('name', 'stuff',)

Thought you probably need customize validation/error messages or you will get messages like:

Parent with this Name and Stuff already exists.

for a form that does´t include stuff as a hidden input.

I am working with a proxy model that does not seem to work with the 'unique_together' of the model being proxied.

What I have is:

class Parent(Model):
    id = AutoField(primary_key=True)
    name = CharField()
    stuff = CharField()

    class Meta:
        ordering = ['name']
        unique_together = (('name', 'stuff'),)

class Myproxy(Parent):

    class Meta:
        proxy = True

    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        super(Myproxy, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
        self.stuff = "test"

If I use the Parent model and try to enter, 'myname' and 'test' as the name/stuff entries twice, I get the usual warning on the second attempt; the admin telling me that this model entry already exists.
       
However, if I try the same thing on the Myproxy model (which has a form without the stuff field; as its meant to be a preset value), I get an:

IntegrityError at /admin/....../add/
(1062, "Duplicate entry 'myname-test' for key 'name'")

The stack trace is as follows:

(FTR, I have also tried overriding the model save(), but again get an IntegrityError, instead of Django performing the expected check).

I am obviously missing some key piece of code, but cannot see what it is.

Thanks
