Part of your question can be answered with the use of signals. See this page: http://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/Signals The ones that are most important to you are (pre|post)_save and (pre|post)_delete. With this, you can distinguish between an insert/update pair and a delete. However, part of your question, distinguishing between an insert and an update, isn't yet part of the Django core. You could try checking for the ID while you're in one of the signals, but that's not exactly reliable. This ticket would give a "created=True/False" on the post_save signal, which would allow you capture exactly the information you want: http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/4879 If you need that functionality, add a vote for it. :) Anyway, with these bits, you should be able to add the signals in your app to catch all the changes, and then you could write them somewhere. Either hook into the Admin app and continue adding to the logger there, or start using an AuditTrail to track *all* changes and keep a full history of them. http://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/AuditTrail Good luck! gav --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
