Built-in Field Validations in Django models are the validations that come predefined to all Django fields. Every field comes in with built-in validations from Django validators. One can also add more built-in field validations for applying or removing certain constraints on a particular field. default=value will make the field default to value. There will be no need to explicitly define any value, even if field is not entered it will default to value. Value depends upon field itself, as if field is datefield, it will accept only date values with predefined validations.
Syntax
field_name = models.Field(default = value)
Django Built-in Field Validation null=True Explanation
Illustration of default=value using an Example. Consider a project named geeksforgeeks having an app named geeks.
Refer to the following articles to check how to create a project and an app in Django.
- How to Create a Basic Project using MVT in Django?
- How to Create an App in Django ?
Enter the following code into models.py file of geeks app. We will be using CharField for experimenting for all field options.
from django.db import modelsfrom django.db.models import Model# Create your models here. class GeeksModel(Model): geeks_field = models.CharField(max_length = 200, default = "GFG is best") |
After running makemigrations and migrate on Django and rendering the above model, let us try to create an instance using None from Django shell. To start Django shell, enter the command,
Python manage.py shell
Now let us try to create instance of GeeksModel using None.
# importing required modelfrom geeks.models import GeeksModel # creating instance of GeeksModel# without entering anythings = GeeksModel.objects.create() # saving current model instances.save() |
Let us check in admin interface if the instance of model is created.
Therefore, default=value modifies the field to set default value for a particular field.
Advanced Concepts with default
In BooleanField, if one wants to enable or disable the field by default, it can be easily done using default=True and default=false simultaneously.
More Built-in Field Validations
| Field Options | Description |
|---|---|
| Null | If True, Django will store empty values as NULL in the database. Default is False. |
| Blank | If True, the field is allowed to be blank. Default is False. |
| db_column | The name of the database column to use for this field. If this isn’t given, Django will use the field’s name. |
| 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. |
| help_text | Extra “help” text to be displayed with the form widget. It’s useful for documentation even if your field isn’t used on a form. |
| primary_key | If True, this field is the primary key for the model. |
| editable | If False, the field will not be displayed in the admin or any other ModelForm. They are also skipped during model validation. Default is True. |
| error_messages | The error_messages argument lets you override the default messages that the field will raise. Pass in a dictionary with keys matching the error messages you want to override. |
| help_text | Extra “help” text to be displayed with the form widget. It’s useful for documentation even if your field isn’t used on a form. |
| verbose_name | A human-readable name for the field. If the verbose name isn’t given, Django will automatically create it using the field’s attribute name, converting underscores to spaces. |
| validators | A list of validators to run for this field. See the validators documentation for more information. |
| Unique | If True, this field must be unique throughout the table. |
