Hi,
In a recent project I needed to clone django models (they will act as data entry templates, that a user can make, and new records can be created based on these templates). I liked the CloneableMixin a lot, but I needed many-to-one related objects (models with ForeignKeys pointing to the source model) to be copied as well.
I've added a new function
_clone_copy_fkto achieve this. What it does is that it iterates through all the related objects, removes the primary_key, changes the ForeignKey value to point to the duplicated record and bulk_create these new related records.Regards,
Josh
