ViewActionMixin¶

ViewActionMixin ¶

djadmin.actions.base.ViewActionMixin

Mixin for actions that generate a full Django CBV (Pattern B).

This is for actions that redirect to a complete view (CreateView, UpdateView, FormView, DetailView, etc.) where the view is factory-generated with all logic. The action provides configuration for ViewFactory or a custom view class.

Use this for: AddAction (→ CreateView), EditRecordAction (→ UpdateView) NOT for: ChangeStatusAction, SendEmailAction (use FormActionMixin instead)

Note: This is future functionality for Milestone 3. The action itself would be passed to ViewFactory which would generate the appropriate view based on the action's view-type mixin (e.g., FormViewActionMixin, DetailViewActionMixin).

Methods

`get_view_class(self) -> type`

Defined in: <class 'djadmin.actions.base.ViewActionMixin'>

Get the view class for this action.

If view_class is set, returns it directly (bypassing factory). Otherwise, uses ViewFactory to generate a view class based on the action's view-type mixin.

Returns: View class ready for .as_view()

Source code in base.py line 454

        from djadmin.factories import ViewFactory

        factory = self.view_factory or ViewFactory()
        return factory.create_view(action=self)

`get_view_config(self) -> dict`

Defined in: <class 'djadmin.actions.base.ViewActionMixin'>

Get configuration dict for this action's view.

This provides action-specific configuration that can be used by the factory or custom view classes.

Returns: Dict of configuration
