Info: When i create a new customer i want to make pending_customer True which i set with Default value True so it's working fine and after the month the pending_customer make to false automatically.
I also try to make function get_pending_customer who could do it i know this is not the way to what i want to do. It's like a task based funcion which is automatically make pending_customer field True to false after the month. i want to know how can I do this?
Can anyone tell me what is the best way to do this?
models.py
from django.utils.timezone import datetime
class Customer(models.Model):
"""Customer Model"""
name = models.CharField(max_length=255)
phone = models.CharField(max_length=11)
created_on = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True)
pending_customer = models.BooleanField(default=True)
"""Example""" # I know it's wrong way
def get_pending_customer(self):
today = datetime.date.today()
month = datetime.timedelta(30)
after_month = today + month
if after_month:
panding = self.object
panding.pending_payment = False
panding.save()
return today
I will suggest you use custom-management-commands.
Write your code in a python file and put it in cron to run every day at a certain time. In the program look for objects older than 30 days and update them for your use case.
Project structure:
App_Name/
__init__.py
models.py
management/
__init__.py
commands/
__init__.py
update_old_data_moreover_30_days.py
tests.py
views.py
It's your update_old_data_moreover_30_days.py file:
from django.core.management.base import BaseCommand, CommandError
from App_Name.models import Customer
from datetime import datetime, timedelta
class Command(BaseCommand):
def handle(self, *args, **options):
Customer.objects.filter(created_on__lte=datetime.now()-timedelta(days=30)).update(pending_customer=False)
self.stdout.write('Updated customers older than 30 days')
