s it possible to allow editing on django admin site of objects in database only for creators of these objects? is extension django-guardian essential for this case? as i understood with django guardian i need manually assign permissions for each db objects and it seems not effective
I tried to use django-guardian for this case, but documentation for it is not very clear for me and I am not sure this extension solve this case
If you’re tracking who the creator is, yes, the admin can do that. You don’t need django-guardian or any other third-party library.
Where something like django-guardian may be necessary are those situations where you don’t directly track the creator of an object. In those situations, you still need to provide some information as to who the creator is, and be able to make your permissions test based on that information. Those libraries provide the facilities to do that.
