The built-in comment models¶
- class Comment¶
Django’s built-in comment model. Has the following fields:
- content_object¶
A GenericForeignKey attribute pointing to the object the comment is attached to. You can use this to get at the related object (i.e. my_comment.content_object).
Since this field is a GenericForeignKey, it’s actually syntactic sugar on top of two underlying attributes, described below.
- content_type¶
A ForeignKey to ContentType; this is the type of the object the comment is attached to.
- site¶
A ForeignKey to the Site on which the comment was posted.
- user¶
A ForeignKey to the User who posted the comment. May be blank if the comment was posted by an unauthenticated user.
- user_name¶
The name of the user who posted the comment.
- user_email¶
The email of the user who posted the comment.
- user_url¶
The URL entered by the person who posted the comment.
- comment¶
The actual content of the comment itself.
- submit_date¶
The date the comment was submitted.
- ip_address¶
The IP address of the user posting the comment.
- is_public¶
False if the comment is in moderation (see Generic comment moderation); If True, the comment will be displayed on the site.
- is_removed¶
True if the comment was removed. Used to keep track of removed comments instead of just deleting them.
