You can set more than 1 [pre,post]_save signal per-model, no problem. I generally, and I'm not saying this is the django way, do it like this: app_name/ __init__.py modes.py views.py signals.py
Inside my signals.py I have all my signal declarations and connections. And inside __init__.py I just do: import app_name.signals Rgds, Marcos On Sat, May 28, 2011 at 7:05 AM, Mateusz Harasymczuk <mate...@harasymczuk.pl > wrote: > I am thinking about splitting my model's save() method over few signals. > > For example, stripping spaces and making string capitalized. > > I have even more sophisticated problems such as making an object field > active set to False basing on various parameters from other fields, such as > expiration date, or good or bad karma points. > > What do you think, it is generally good idea, to keep models file clean out > of heavily overloaded save() methods? > > How about making more than one signal pre_save to the same model? > > > @receiver(pre_save, sender=X) > def strip_chars(sender, **kwargs): > pass > > @receiver(pre_save, sender=X) > def capitalize_name(sender, **kwargs): > pass > > @receiver(pre_save, sender=X) > def make_inactive(sender, **kwargs): > pass > > Will it work? > > I want to put those in signals/X.py > where X is my model name > > Where to import them? in my model file? > or it will happen "automagicly" like with admin.py file? > (I think that python's explicit rule forbids that way, therefore where to > import those signals, avoiding recurring imports [signal.py import model.py > and model imports signals])? > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Django users" group. > To post to this group, send email to django-users@googlegroups.com. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > django-users+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/django-users?hl=en. > -- Some people, when confronted with a problem, think “I know, I'll use regular expressions.” Now they have two problems.
