FAQ

I use Django-Rest-Framework and django-concurrency seems do not work

Use CONCURRENCY_IGNORE_DEFAULT accordingly or be sure that serializer does not set 0 as initial value

Just added django-concurrency to existing project and it does not work

Check that your records do not have 0 as version number and use CONCURRENCY_IGNORE_DEFAULT accordingly

South support ?

South support has been removed after version 1.0 when Django <1.6 support has been removed as well.

If needed add these lines to your models.py:

from south.modelsinspector import add_introspection_rules
add_introspection_rules([], ["^concurrency\.fields\.IntegerVersionField"])

How is managed update_fields

It is possible to use save(update_fields=…) parameter without interfree with the concurrency check algorithm

x1 = MyModel.objects.create(name='abc')
x2 = MyModel.objects.get(pk=x1.pk)

x1.save()
x2.save(update_fields=['username'])  # raise RecordModifiedError

anyway this will NOT raise any error

x1 = MyModel.objects.create(name='abc')
x2 = MyModel.objects.get(pk=x1.pk)

x1.save(update_fields=['username'])  # skip update version number
x2.save()  # saved

Note

TriggerVersionField will be always updated
