class OneToOneField(ForeignKey):

View In Hierarchy

A OneToOneField is essentially the same as a ForeignKey, with the exception that it always carries a "unique" constraint with it and the reverse relation always returns the object pointed to (since there will only ever be one), rather than returning a list.
Method __init__ Undocumented
Method ​_check​_unique Undocumented
Method deconstruct Return enough information to recreate the field as a 4-tuple:
Method formfield Pass limit_choices_to to the field being constructed.

Method convert​_empty​_strings Undocumented
Method db​_check Return the database column check constraint for this field, for the provided connection. Works the same way as db_type() for the case that get_internal_type() does not map to a preexisting model field.
Method db​_parameters Extension of db_type(), providing a range of different return values (type, checks). This will look at db_type(), allowing custom model fields to override it.
Method db​_type Return the database column data type for this field, for the provided connection.

Method get​_prep​_value Perform preliminary non-db specific value checks and conversions.
Method get​_reverse​_path​_info Get path from the related model to this field's model.
Method resolve​_related​_fields Undocumented
Method to​_python Convert the input value into the expected Python data type, raising django.core.exceptions.ValidationError if the data can't be converted. Return the converted value. Subclasses should override this.
Method validate Validate value and raise ValidationError if necessary. Subclasses should override this to provide validation logic.

Method __deepcopy__ Undocumented
Method __eq__ Undocumented

Method ​_check​_validators Undocumented
Method ​_description Undocumented
Method ​_get​_flatchoices Flattened version of choices tuple.

Method clean Convert the value's type and run validation. Validation errors from to_python() and validate() are propagated. Return the correct value if no error is raised.
Method clone Uses deconstruct() to clone a new copy of this Field. Will not preserve any class attachments/attribute names.
Method db​_type​_parameters Undocumented
Method db​_type​_suffix Undocumented
Method get​_choices Return choices with a default blank choices included, for use as <select> choices for this field.
Method get​_filter​_kwargs​_for​_object Return a dict that when passed as kwargs to self.model.filter(), would yield all instances having the same value for this field as obj has.
Method get​_internal​_type Undocumented
Method get​_pk​_value​_on​_save No summary
Method has​_default Return a boolean of whether this field has a default value.
Method pre​_save Return field's value just before saving.

Method run​_validators Undocumented
Method select​_format Custom format for select clauses. For example, GIS columns need to be selected as AsText(table.col) on MySQL as the table.col data can't be used by Django.
Method set​_attributes​_from​_name Undocumented
Method value​_from​_object Return the value of this field in the given model instance.
Method value​_to​_string Return a string value of this field from the passed obj. This is used by the serialization framework.

def __init__(self, to, on_delete, to_field=None, **kwargs):
def _check_unique(self, **kwargs):
def deconstruct(self):

Return enough information to recreate the field as a 4-tuple:

  • The name of the field on the model, if contribute_to_class() has been run.
  • The import path of the field, including the class, e.g. django.db.models.IntegerField. This should be the most portable version, so less specific may be better.
  • A list of positional arguments.
  • A dict of keyword arguments.

Note that the positional or keyword arguments must contain values of the following types (including inner values of collection types):

  • None, bool, str, int, float, complex, set, frozenset, list, tuple, dict
  • UUID
  • datetime.datetime (naive), datetime.date
  • top-level classes, top-level functions - will be referenced by their full import path
  • Storage instances - these have their own deconstruct() method

This is because the values here must be serialized into a text format (possibly new Python code, possibly JSON) and these are the only types with encoding handlers defined.

There's no need to return the exact way the field was instantiated this time, just ensure that the resulting field is the same - prefer keyword arguments over positional ones, and omit parameters with their default values.

def formfield(self, **kwargs):

Pass limit_choices_to to the field being constructed.

Only passes it if there is a type that supports related fields. This is a similar strategy used to pass the queryset to the field being constructed.
