I have written some custom actions for my django project, however cannot work out how to make them available to only superusers. I have tried putting an if statement round the actions line with Users.is_superuser but it keeps giving me an error saying there is no attribute called is_superuser.
Here is my admin.py file:
from django.contrib import admin
from models import Art, Agent, UserProfile
from django.contrib import admin
from django.contrib.auth.models import Group, User, AbstractUser
from django.contrib.auth import *
from import_export import resources
from import_export.admin import ImportExportModelAdmin
#admin.site.unregister(Group)
def approve_art(modeladmin, request, queryset):
queryset.update(authenticate = "approved")
def reject_art(modeladmin, request, queryset):
queryset.update(authenticate = "rejected")
# Add in this class to customized the Admin Interface
class ArtAdmin(ImportExportModelAdmin):
list_display = ['id', 'identification', 'name', 'artist', 'category', 'type', 'agent', 'authenticate', ]
search_fields = ('name', 'category', 'artist', 'id', 'authenticate', )
actions = [approve_art, reject_art]
list_filter = ["authenticate"]
class AgentAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
list_display = ['id', 'name', 'phone', 'postcode', ]
search_fields = ('name', 'id', )
class ArtResource(resources.ModelResource):
class Meta:
model = Art
# Update the registeration to include this customised interface
admin.site.register(Art, ArtAdmin)
admin.site.register(Agent, AgentAdmin)
You can customize the list of actions by overriding get_actions()
. For example:
class ArtAdmin(ImportExportModelAdmin):
list_display = ['id', 'identification', 'name', 'artist', 'category', 'type', 'agent', 'authenticate', ]
search_fields = ('name', 'category', 'artist', 'id', 'authenticate', )
list_filter = ["authenticate"]
actions = [approve_art, reject_art]
def get_actions(self, request):
actions = super(ArtAdmin, self).get_actions(request)
if not request.user.is_superuser:
del actions[approve_art]
del actions[reject_art]
return actions

Update for Django >= 2.1
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.2/ref/contrib/admin/actions/#setting-permissions-for-actions
in a nutshell:
def make_published(modeladmin, request, queryset):
queryset.update(status='p')
make_published.allowed_permissions = ('change',)
or custom:
from django.contrib import admin
from django.contrib.auth import get_permission_codename
class ArticleAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
actions = ['make_published']
def make_published(self, request, queryset):
queryset.update(status='p')
make_published.allowed_permissions = ('publish',)
def has_publish_permission(self, request):
"""Does the user have the publish permission?"""
opts = self.opts
codename = get_permission_codename('publish', opts)
return request.user.has_perm('%s.%s' % (opts.app_label, codename))
