Just thinking about it again ... you could look at the Admin source to see how
it is working now and perhaps find a way to include the missing info in a
pre-save signal.Also, I found django-simple-history online but I suppose you
have seen that already.M--(Unsigned mail from my phone)

Re: logging admin accesses You seem to be asking for a full history 'system'. I
think the Admin history exists to show a bit of history with a link to go back
to the change form where it happened.Full history needs to be specified fairly
carefully so it doesn't bog the system down. For example, every write costs a
performance hit. Also, how resilient must it be to cope with database schema
changes? How is it going to be used in practice? What are the benefits and are
they worth the effort. I have worked through some of this in my current project
and decided to create separate 'mirror' tables for only the critical
information and automate data collection for others in a plain text field for
archival.It can be quite open ended and might reward very aggressive
specification.CheersMike--(Unsigned mail from my phone)-------- Original

wrote:Top posting because of phone email client.Have you seen the Admin
history? Might be already logged for you.Thanks, this is useful, but it does
not seem to be logging everything. We have a custom user admin page that
updates a few models in addition to User: UserInfo, UserExtendProduct, and
UserRole. If I add a new user I see
this:+-----------+-------------+-------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+-----------------+---------+|
object_id | object_repr | action_flag | change_message
| content_type_id | user_id
|+-----------+-------------+-------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+-----------------+---------+|
3 | x | 1 | [{"added": {}}, {"added": {"name":
"user info", "object": "x"}}, {"added": {"name": "user extend product",
"object": "x"}}] | 4 | 1
|+-----------+-------------+-------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+-----------------+---------+It
shows that a row in User, UserInfo, and UserExtendProdct were added, but it
does not show what was added to the latter 2, and it does not show that rows
were added to UserRole.When I modify a user and cause UserRole to be updated I
see
this:+-----------+-------------+-------------+----------------+-----------------+---------+|
object_id | object_repr | action_flag | change_message | content_type_id |
user_id
|+-----------+-------------+-------------+----------------+-----------------+---------+|
3 | x | 2 | [] | 4 |
1
|+-----------+-------------+-------------+----------------+-----------------+---------+No
info about that row being added. If I cause a row in UserRole to be deleted I
get the exact same entry, so I cannot distinguish between an add and a delete
and I can't see what was added or deleted. But if I cause a row in UserInfo or
UserExtendProduct to be added I see
this:+-----------+-------------+-------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+-----------------+---------+|
object_id | object_repr | action_flag | change_message
| content_type_id | user_id
|+-----------+-------------+-------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+-----------------+---------+|
3 | x | 1 | [{"added": {}}, {"added": {"name":
"user info", "object": "x"}}, {"added": {"name": "user extend product",
"object": "x"}}] | 4 | 1
|+-----------+-------------+-------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+-----------------+---------+Shows
an add, but not what was added.So my questions are:-how can I get it to show
the details of what was added or changed-why are updates to UserInfo and
UserExtendProduct shown, but updates to UserRole are not?Thanks!--------

admin accesses Is there a way to capture all admin changes (add, change,
delete). I have some middleware that gets called on any admin add, change, or
delete, but I have not figured out a way to capture specifically what was done,
something like: model, PK, action, e.g. user, 12, change, first name
changeduser, 15, adduser, 24, deleteI am looking for something generic that
will work for all models under admin control
