Django Admin- disable Editing and remove “Save” buttons for a specific model

Question

I have a Django Model which I wish to be only readonly. No adds and edits allowed.

I have marked all fields readonly and overridden has_add_permission in ModelAdmin

Answer 1

This has been possible for a while. The names are has_add_permission, has_change_permission and has_delete_permission. See the django admin documentation for reference. Here is also an example:

@admin.register(Object)
class Admin(admin.ModelAdmin):

    def has_add_permission(self, request):
        return False

    def has_change_permission(self, request, obj=None):
        return False

    def has_delete_permission(self, request, obj=None):
        return False
