## django-clone

Create copies of a model instance with explicit control on how the instance should be duplicated (limiting fields or related objects copied) with unique field detection.

This solves the problem introduced by using `instance.pk = None` and `instance.save()` which results in copying more object state than required.

## Features

*   100% test coverage.
*   More control over how a model instance should be duplicated
*   Multi Database support i.e Create a duplicate on one or more databases.
*   Restrict fields used for creating a duplicate instance.
*   Detect unique fields and naively adds a suffix (`copy {count}`) to each new instance.

## Installation

Run

```bash script
pip install django-clone
```

## Usage

### Subclassing the `CloneModel`

**CHANGE**

```python
from django.db import models

class MyModel(models.Model):
    title = models.CharField(max_length=200)
```

**TO**

```python
from django.db import models
from model_clone.models import CloneModel

class MyModel(CloneModel):
    title = models.CharField(max_length=200)
```

**Example**

```python
from django.db import models
from django.utils.translation import gettext_lazy as _
from model_clone.models import CloneModel

class TestModel(CloneModel):
    title = models.CharField(max_length=200)
    tags =  models.ManyToManyField('Tags')

    _clone_m2m_fields = ['tags']


class Tags(models.Model):  #  To enable cloning tags directly use `CloneModel` as shown above.
    name = models.CharField(max_length=255)

    def __str__(self):
        return _(self.name)
```

### Using the `CloneMixin`

```python
from django.db import models
from django.utils.translation import gettext_lazy as _
from model_clone import CloneMixin

class TestModel(CloneMixin, models.Model):
    title = models.CharField(max_length=200)
    tags =  models.ManyToManyField('Tags')

    _clone_m2m_fields = ['tags']


class Tags(models.Model):  #  To enable cloning tags directly use `CloneMixin` as shown above.
    name = models.CharField(max_length=255)

    def __str__(self):
        return _(self.name)
```

### Duplicating a model instance

```python
In [1]: test_obj = TestModel.objects.create(title='New')

In [2]: test_obj.pk
Out[2]: 1

In [3]: test_obj.title
Out[3]: 'New'

In [4]: test_obj.tags.create(name='men')

In [4]: test_obj.tags.create(name='women')

In [5]: test_obj.tags.all()
Out[5]: <QuerySet [<Tag: men>, <Tag: women>]>

In [6]: test_obj_clone = test_obj.make_clone()

In [7]: test_obj_clone.pk
Out[7]: 2

In [8]: test_obj_clone.title
Out[8]: 'New copy 1'

In [9]: test_obj_clone.tags.all()
Out[9]: <QuerySet [<Tag: men>, <Tag: women>]>

In [6]: test_obj_clone = test_obj.make_clone(attrs={'title': 'Updated title'})

In [7]: test_obj_clone.pk
Out[7]: 3

In [8]: test_obj_clone.title
Out[8]: 'Updated title'

In [9]: test_obj_clone.tags.all()
Out[9]: <QuerySet [<Tag: men>, <Tag: women>]>
```

#### Bulk cloning a model

```python
In [1]: test_obj = TestModel.objects.create(title='New')

In [2]: test_obj.pk
Out[2]: 1

In [3]: test_obj.title
Out[3]: 'New'

In [4]: test_obj.tags.create(name='men')

In [4]: test_obj.tags.create(name='women')

In [5]: test_obj.tags.all()
Out[5]: <QuerySet [<Tag: men>, <Tag: women>]>

In [6]: test_obj_clones = test_obj.bulk_clone(1000)

In [7]: len(test_obj_clones)
Out[7]: 1000

In [8]: test_obj_clone = test_obj_clones[0]

In [9]: test_obj_clone.pk
Out[9]: 2

In [10]: test_obj_clone.title
Out[10]: 'New copy 1'

In [11]: test_obj_clone.tags.all()
Out[11]: <QuerySet [<Tag: men>, <Tag: women>]>
```

#### Multi database support

```python

In [6]: test_obj_clone = test_obj.make_clone(using='replica')  # Replicate test object to a different database.

In [7]: test_obj_clone.pk
Out[7]: 1

In [8]: test_obj_clone.title
Out[8]: 'New'

In [9]: test_obj_clone.tags.all()
Out[9]: <QuerySet [<Tag: men>, <Tag: women>]>

In [10]: test_obj_clone._state.db
Out[10]: 'replica'
```

### CloneMixin attributes

|    Attribute        |  Description |
|:------------------------------:|:------------:|
| `DUPLICATE_SUFFIX` | Suffix to append to duplicates <br> (NOTE: This requires `USE_DUPLICATE_SUFFIX_FOR_NON_UNIQUE_FIELDS` <br> to be enabled and supports string fields). |
`USE_DUPLICATE_SUFFIX_FOR_NON_UNIQUE_FIELDS` | Enable appending the `DUPLICATE_SUFFIX` to new cloned instances. |
`UNIQUE_DUPLICATE_SUFFIX` | Suffix to append to unique fields |
`USE_UNIQUE_DUPLICATE_SUFFIX` | Enable appending the `UNIQUE_DUPLICATE_SUFFIX` to new cloned instances. |
`MAX_UNIQUE_DUPLICATE_QUERY_ATTEMPTS` | The max query attempt while generating unique values for a case of unique conflicts. |

#### Explicit (include only these fields)

|    Attribute        |  Description |
|:------------------------------:|:------------:|
| `_clone_fields` | Restrict the list of fields to copy from the instance (By default: Copies all fields excluding auto-created/non editable model fields) |
`_clone_m2m_fields` | Restricted Many to many fields (i.e Test.tags) |
`_clone_m2o_or_o2m_fields` | Restricted Many to One/One to Many fields |
`_clone_o2o_fields` | Restricted One to One fields |

#### Implicit (include all except these fields)

|  Attribute  | Description |
|:--------------------:|:-----------:|
| `_clone_excluded_fields` | Excluded model fields. |
`_clone_excluded_m2m_fields` | Excluded many to many fields. |
`_clone_excluded_m2o_or_o2m_fields` |  Excluded Many to One/One to Many fields. |
`_clone_excluded_o2o_fields` | Excluded one to one fields. |

> **NOTE:** :warning:
>
> *   Ensure to either set `_clone_excluded_*` or `_clone_*`. Using both would raise errors.

### Creating clones without subclassing `CloneMixin`.

```python

In [1]: from model_clone.utils import create_copy_of_instance

In [2]: test_obj = TestModel.objects.create(title='New')

In [3]: test_obj.pk
Out[3]: 1

In [4]: test_obj.title
Out[4]: 'New'

In [5]: test_obj.tags.create(name='men')

In [6]: test_obj.tags.create(name='women')

In [7]: test_obj.tags.all()
Out[7]: <QuerySet [<Tag: men>, <Tag: women>]>

In [8]: test_obj_clone = create_copy_of_instance(test_obj, attrs={'title': 'Updated title'})

In [9]: test_obj_clone.pk
Out[9]: 2

In [10]: test_obj_clone.title
Out[10]: 'Updated title'

In [11]: test_obj_clone.tags.all()
Out[11]: <QuerySet []>
```

> **NOTE:** :warning:
>
> *   This method won't copy over related objects like Many to Many/One to Many relationships.
> *   Ensure that required fields skipped from being cloned are passed in using the `attrs` kwargs.

### Django Admin

#### Duplicating Models from the Django Admin view.

**Change**

```python
from django.contrib import admin
from django.contrib.admin import ModelAdmin

@admin.register(TestModel)
class TestModelAdmin(ModelAdmin):
    pass
```

**to**

```python
from model_clone import CloneModelAdmin

@admin.register(TestModel)
class TestModelAdmin(CloneModelAdmin):
    pass
```

##### List View

![Screenshot](Duplicate-action.png)

##### Change View

![Screenshot](Duplicate-button.png)

#### CloneModelAdmin class attributes

```python

from model_clone import CloneModelAdmin

@admin.register(TestModel)
class TestModelAdmin(CloneModelAdmin):
    # Enables/Disables the Duplicate action in the List view (Defaults to True)
    include_duplicate_action = True
    # Enables/Disables the Duplicate action in the Change view (Defaults to True)
    include_duplicate_object_link = True
```

> **NOTE:** :warning:
>
> *   Ensure that `model_clone` is placed before `django.contrib.admin`

```python
INSTALLED_APPS = [
    'model_clone',
    'django.contrib.admin',
    '...',
]
```
