How can I update a Model and do something with this object or other?

My model has 7 fields, but I want update a only field. I'm using CBC(generic.UpdateView) with model and form_class. My forms works normally, but,
I want do things depending on value for this Field.



I don't know what method override.



ModelA:
atribute_a
atribute_b
atribute_c


I need change only atribute_a, but atribute_b is a dateTime, and a I want update atribute_b with timezone.now() when update atribute_a, and after that I want update a another object with ForeignKey with atribute_c for example.



basically in a UpdateView, I want this:
In a some method(save, post, dispatch or other)



atribute_b = timezone.now()
if atribute_a == 'abc':
ModelB.objects.filter(atribute_c=atribute_c).update(atribute_c = atribute_c+1)

  • Did you look at Django Signals, I would check out the post_save and pre_save signals. You can also override the model's save method, but I don't think that's good practice

  • you can add auto_now to attribute_b

  • This a update, auto_now when object is created, I want the time when object will change. The signal is when, always object have changes, created or updated, I want make changes only in this casa?

code from my forms.



class MyForm(ModelForm):
class Meta:
fields = ['atribute_a']
exclude = ['atribute_b', 'atribute_c']

def save(self, commit=True):
instance = super(MyForm, self).save(commit=False)
instance.atribute_b = timezone.now()
# do something with FK
