How do I get the actual object id in a Django admin page (inside formfield_for_foreignkey)?

Question

I \'ve already solved the problem of getting the object id being edited using this code:

class CompanyUserInline(admin.StackedInline):
    \"\"\"
    Defines         


        

Answer 1

I made it work by creating a property() in model.py that returns the ID

models.py:

class MyModel(models.Model):
    myfield = models.CharField(max_length=75)
    ...
    def get_id(self):
        return str(self.id)
    getid = property(get_id)

admin.py:

from myapp.models import MyModel

class MyModelAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    list_display = ['mylink',]
    def mylink(self, object):
        return 'Edit'
    mylink.allow_tags = True

admin.site.register(MyModel, MyModelAdmin)
