从数据库重新加载Django对象

是否可以从数据库中刷新Django对象的状态?我的意思是行为大致相当于:

new_self = self.__class__.objects.get(pk=self.pk)
for each field of the record:
setattr(self, field, getattr(new_self, field))

更新:在跟踪器中发现重新打开/WontFix WAR:http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/901。 我还是不明白为什么维护人员不喜欢这样。

I've found it relatively easy to reload the object from the database like so:

x = X.objects.get(id=x.id)

In reference to @grep's comment, shouldn't it be possible to do:

# Put this on your base model (or monkey patch it onto django's Model if that's your thing)
def reload(self):
new_self = self.__class__.objects.get(pk=self.pk)
# You may want to clear out the old dict first or perform a selective merge
self.__dict__.update(new_self.__dict__)


# Use it like this
bar.foo = foo
assert bar.foo.pk is None
foo.save()
foo.reload()
assert bar.foo is foo and bar.foo.pk is not None

As of Django 1.8 refreshing objects is built in. Link to docs.

def test_update_result(self):
obj = MyModel.objects.create(val=1)
MyModel.objects.filter(pk=obj.pk).update(val=F('val') + 1)
# At this point obj.val is still 1, but the value in the database
# was updated to 2. The object's updated value needs to be reloaded
# from the database.
obj.refresh_from_db()
self.assertEqual(obj.val, 2)

As @Flimm pointed out, this is a really awesome solution:

foo.refresh_from_db()

This reloads all data from the database into the object.
