how to update django cached_property

Question

I would like to use @cached_property on model property to avoid too much db access.

class AttrGroup(models.Model):
    ...

    @cached_property
    def options(self):
        options = AttributeOption.objects.filter(group_id=self.id)
        return options
    ...

This works fine.

i want to use the following function to update the value of options.But how should i do it? for property decorator, there is setter for it.

def _set_options(self, value):
    for option in value:
        AttributeOption.objects.create(group_id=self.id, option=option.get('option'))

Answer 1

You can invalidate the cached_property by deleting it:

del self.options
