DateTimeField doesn't show in admin system

Question

How come my \"date\" field doesn\'t come up in the admin system?

In my admin.py file i have

from django.contrib import admin
from glasses.players.mod         


        

Answer 1

Depending on your specific needs, and any nuances in difference in behavior, you could do the following:

from django.utils.timezone import now

class MyModel(models.Model):
    date = models.DateTimeField(default=now)

The default field can be used this way: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/models/fields/#default

The default value for the field. This can be a value or a callable object. If callable it will be called every time a new object is created.

This does not set editable to False
