Limit queryset in field

[Jakob Damgaard Møller]

Hello,
if i have a model like:

class Model1(models.Model):
name = models.CharField()
owner = models.ForeignKey(User)

class Model2(models.Model):
name = models.CharField()
model2 = models.ForeignKey(Model2)
owner = models.ForeignKey(User)

And i want to limit the queryset in my serializer, so that when creating
Model2, the only allowed "model2-objects" is the one that will match this
query:

Model2.objects.filter(owner=CURRENT_USER)

Is the right way to do it like this in __init__()

self.fields['model2'].queryset = Models2.objects.filter(owner=CURRENT_USER)
or is there a better way to solve this ?

Hi Jakob.

That looks about right. 🙂

for me the most way is to specify that in your view class
try to define the ___init__ method and put your logic in.
