django-fullclean

Django app: forcing the model to call full_clean() method on save.

I make the fixture as a tiny PyPI package, to fix this problem.

Problem

Default in django, when we call the save() method on a model, the full_clean method will not be called, witch is useful in fact.

To enable the full_clean on model.save(), we can just introduce this app in settings.py, and everything is done.

Use the standard pip install:

pip install django-fullclean

If you have the requirements.txt in your project, adding django-fullclean inside:

# requirements.txt
# ...
django
django-fullclean
# ...

Then, in your django project, add django_fullclean inside your INSTALLED_APPS section in settings.py, the order do not matter:

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    # ...
    'django_fullclean',
    # ...
)

So now you can freely implement the clean method ref, checking for incorrect cases then throw ValidationError inside.

So you can got an error when you save the model object when the clean() checking is not pass.
