How do I use the admin action to create a queryset which will apply a Many-to-Many value?
I understand the 'value' will have to already exist (in my case, the colour itsel will have to exist).
Models
class Colours(models.Model):
colour_name = models.CharField(max_length=50)
class Car(models.Model):
brand = models.CharField(max_length=200)
available_colours = models.ManyToManyField(Colours, blank=True)
Admin.py
class CarAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
actions = ['Red']
Attempt 1: only works for FK
def Red(self, request, queryset):
queryset.update(colour=Colour.objects.get(colour_name__iexact='Red'), updated=timezone.now())
Attempt 2: Did not work
def Red(self, request, queryset):
queryset.update = self.model._meta.app_label, self.model._meta.model_name
