Question

I am playing around with using Django and a few arduinos. From my models.py I have

class Arduino(models.Model):
    ...
    address = models.CharField(max_length=100)
    ...

I am wondering if it is possible for ‘address’ to have an auto-generated choice-tuple from a script (or if this is even the right approach).

I was having a few arduinos around the house connected to a django server for sensor monitoring. I can of course put the address in by hand but I am trying to learn more about Django and programming in general.

Simple app with configuration of arduinos done through the admin interface

Thanks for any assistance

Set the choices for the field in the initializer.
