Passing session data to ModelForm inside of ModelAdmin
- by theactiveactor
I'm trying to initialize the form attribute for MyModelAdmin class inside an instance method, as follows:
class MyModelAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
def queryset(self, request):
MyModelAdmin.form = MyModelForm(request.user)
My goal is to customize the editing form of MyModelForm based on the current session. When I try this however, I keep getting an error (shown below). Is this the proper place to pass session data to ModelForm? If so, then what may be causing this error?
