In my model the validation is not validating for the boolean field, only one time product_field need to be checked , if two time checked raise validation error.
product_field = models.BooleanField(default=False) def clean(self): if (self.product_field is not None).count() < 1: raise ValidationError( { "product_field": _(" Product field can be select once") } )

Answer
Boolean and None
are not always the same. I think that is the root of your problem. Here is None
vs False
:
# python3 > False is None False
I find the code and information confusing.
I assume product_filed
is a typo. Generally models.BooleanField
have to possibilities True
and False
. If blank=True
and required=False
are set then None
can happen (unset aka NULL).
Keep the default=False
and don’t check for None
, you should never see None
with a default on a Bool.
You mention if two time checked raise validation error
– Huh? This is also confusing. What are you trying to accomplish? The logic and details do not make complete sense to me.
To check the bool you can use if not self.product_field:
… raise.
What is being counted?
