class documentation

Django provides full support for anonymous sessions. The session framework lets you store and retrieve arbitrary data on a per-site-visitor basis. It stores data on the server side and abstracts the sending and receiving of cookies. Cookies contain a session ID -- not the data itself. The Django sessions framework is entirely cookie-based. It does not fall back to putting session IDs in URLs. This is an intentional design decision. Not only does that behavior make URLs ugly, it makes your site vulnerable to session-ID theft via the "Referer" header. For complete documentation on using Sessions in your code, consult the sessions documentation that is shipped with Django (also available on the Django web site).

Class Meta Undocumented
Class Method get_session_store_class Undocumented
Class Variable objects Undocumented

Inherited from AbstractBaseSession:

Method __str__ Undocumented
Method get_decoded Undocumented
Class Variable expire_date Undocumented
Class Variable session_data Undocumented
Class Variable session_key Undocumented

Inherited from Model (via AbstractBaseSession):

Class Method check Undocumented
Class Method from_db Undocumented
Method __eq__ Undocumented
Method __getstate__ Hook to allow choosing the attributes to pickle.
Method __hash__ Undocumented
Method __init__ Undocumented
Method __reduce__ Undocumented
Method __repr__ Undocumented
Method __setstate__ Undocumented
Method clean Hook for doing any extra model-wide validation after clean() has been called on every field by self.clean_fields. Any ValidationError raised by this method will not be associated with a particular field; it will have a special-case association with the field defined by NON_FIELD_ERRORS.
Method clean_fields Clean all fields and raise a ValidationError containing a dict of all validation errors if any occur.
Method date_error_message Undocumented
Method delete Undocumented
Method full_clean Call clean_fields(), clean(), validate_unique(), and validate_constraints() on the model. Raise a ValidationError for any errors that occur.
Method get_constraints Undocumented
Method get_deferred_fields Return a set containing names of deferred fields for this instance.
Method prepare_database_save Undocumented
Method refresh_from_db Reload field values from the database.
Method save Save the current instance. Override this in a subclass if you want to control the saving process.
Method save_base Handle the parts of saving which should be done only once per save, yet need to be done in raw saves, too. This includes some sanity checks and signal sending.
Method serializable_value Return the value of the field name for this instance. If the field is a foreign key, return the id value instead of the object. If there's no Field object with this name on the model, return the model attribute's value.
Method unique_error_message Undocumented
Method validate_constraints Undocumented
Method validate_unique Check unique constraints on the model and raise ValidationError if any failed.
Class Variable pk Undocumented
Class Method _check_column_name_clashes Undocumented
Class Method _check_constraints Undocumented
Class Method _check_default_pk Undocumented
Class Method _check_field_name_clashes Forbid field shadowing in multi-table inheritance.
Class Method _check_fields Perform all field checks.
Class Method _check_id_field Check if `id` field is a primary key.
Class Method _check_index_together Check the value of "index_together" option.
Class Method _check_indexes Check fields, names, and conditions of indexes.
Class Method _check_local_fields Undocumented
Class Method _check_long_column_names Check that any auto-generated column names are shorter than the limits for each database in which the model will be created.
Class Method _check_m2m_through_same_relationship Check if no relationship model is used by more than one m2m field.
Class Method _check_managers Perform all manager checks.
Class Method _check_model Undocumented
Class Method _check_model_name_db_lookup_clashes Undocumented
Class Method _check_ordering Check "ordering" option -- is it a list of strings and do all fields exist?
Class Method _check_property_name_related_field_accessor_clashes Undocumented
Class Method _check_single_primary_key Undocumented
Class Method _check_swappable Check if the swapped model exists.
Class Method _check_unique_together Check the value of "unique_together" option.
Class Method _get_expr_references Undocumented
Method _do_insert Do an INSERT. If returning_fields is defined then this method should return the newly created data for the model.
Method _do_update Try to update the model. Return True if the model was updated (if an update query was done and a matching row was found in the DB).
Method _get_FIELD_display Undocumented
Method _get_field_value_map Undocumented
Method _get_next_or_previous_by_FIELD Undocumented
Method _get_next_or_previous_in_order Undocumented
Method _get_pk_val Undocumented
Method _get_unique_checks Return a list of checks to perform. Since validate_unique() could be called from a ModelForm, some fields may have been excluded; we can't perform a unique check on a model that is missing fields involved in that check...
Method _perform_date_checks Undocumented
Method _perform_unique_checks Undocumented
Method _prepare_related_fields_for_save Undocumented
Method _save_parents Save all the parents of cls using values from self.
Method _save_table Do the heavy-lifting involved in saving. Update or insert the data for a single table.
Method _set_pk_val Undocumented
Instance Variable _order Undocumented
Instance Variable _prefetched_objects_cache Undocumented
Instance Variable _state Undocumented
