How to make an auto increment integer field Django

问题:

the question is simple, I am making an order for shopping cart and I need to make a field that auto increments when the order is made. But I don't know how to make the integer field auto increment :S any help.

order.py

class Order(models.Model):
    cart = models.ForeignKey(Cart)
    add_date = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True)
    order_number = models.IntegerField()
    enable = models.BooleanField(default=True)

回答1:

In Django 1 : There will be a default field with name "id" which is auto increment .
2 : You can define any field as auto increment field using AutoField field.

class Order(models.Model):
    auto_increment_id = models.AutoField(primary_key=True)
    #you use primary_key = True if you do not want to use default field "id" given by django to your model

db design

) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 |

1 row in set (0.01 sec)

If you want to use django's default id as increment field .

class Order(models.Model):
    dd_date = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True)

In django with every model you will get the by default id field that is auto increament. But still if you manually want to use auto increment. You just need to specify in your Model AutoField.

class Author(models.Model):
    author_id = models.AutoField(primary_key=True)

you can read more about the auto field in django in Django Documentation for AutoField

回答3:

class Belly(models.Model):
    belly_id = models.AutoField(primary_key=True)
    belly_name = models.CharField(max_length=50)

******** or *******

class Belly(models.Model):
   belly_name = models.CharField(max_length=50)

The difference is:

The first table has the primary key belly_id (specified as AutoField) and second table has the primary key id (implicitly).

I think no need to use this directly; a primary key field will automatically be added to your model if you don’t specify. Otherwise Check the Django Documentation for AutoField for further details related to AutoField.

回答4:

You can create an autofield. Here is the documentation for the same

Please remember Django won't allow to have more than one AutoField in a model, In your model you already have one for your primary key (which is default). So you'll have to override model's save method and will probably fetch the last inserted record from the table and accordingly increment the counter and add the new record.

Please make that code thread safe because in case of multiple requests you might end up trying to insert same value for different new records.

回答5:

You can use default primary key (id) which auto increaments.

Note: When you use first design i.e. use default field (id) as a primary key, initialize object by mentioning column names. e.g.

class User(models.Model):
    user_name = models.CharField(max_length = 100)

then initialize,

user = User(user_name="XYZ")

if you initialize in following way,

user = User("XYZ")

then python will try to set id = "XYZ" which will give you error on data type.

回答6:

What I needed: A document number with a fixed number of integers that would also act like an AutoField.

My searches took me all over incl. this page.

Finally I did something like this:

I created a table with a DocuNumber field as an IntegerField with foll. attributes:

• max_length=6
• primary_key=True
• unique=True
• default=100000

The max_length value anything as required (and thus the corresponding default= value).

A warning is issued while creating the said model, which I could ignore.

Afterwards, created a document (dummy) whence as expected, the document had an integer field value of 100000.

Afterwards changed the model key field as:

• Changed the field type as: AutoField
• Got rid of the max_length And defaultattributes
• Retained the primary_key = True attribute

The next (desired document) created had the value as 100001 with subsequent numbers getting incremented by 1.

So far so good.
