django display content manytomanyfield

I'm trying to show the content of a manytomanyfield in the admin interface. I have the following code:

class Member(models.Model):
    group = models.ManyToManyField('Group')

    def group_gp_name(self):
        return self.group.gp_name

    def __unicode__(self):

        return u'%s' % (self.id)

class Group(models.Model):
    gp_name = models.TextField(verbose_name=u'Group Name')

    def __unicode__(self):
        return u'%s - %s' % (self.id, self.gp_name)

In the admin i have something like this:

class MemberAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    list_display = ('group_gp_name')

This method worked for showing Foreignkey data. Obviously this doesn't work with ManytoManyFields.. so my question is, how can i show my group names in my admin page under Member. So when i click in the admin on 'Member' i want to see immediately the content of the Group names coupled by the manytomany relation?

UPDATE!!! - I don't want to show them in my change page is just want to see the result in the table. I've found this and it's almost what i want:

    def get_sol(self):
        return self.group.all()

This works but the view is little bit weird, it shows something like this:

<Group: Administrators >]

The problem is, i don't want to see those '[Group :' and '>]', so how do i get rid of these?

UPDATE2!!!

It helpe开发者_JAVA百科d me out, but what if for example this happens? I've got a 3rd table called Test like this:

class Test(models.Model):
    member = models.ForeignKey('Member')

Now i wanna show in the admin view 'Test' the group name from the table 'Group', how is that possible?

Any help is appreciated.

If you want to see your many to many field from the change page, then you need to use admin inlines.

class GroupInline(admin.TabularInline):
    model = Group

class MemberAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    list_display = ('group_gp_name')
    inlines = [
        GroupInline,
    ]

Post your update, that you're interested in the list display rather than the change page, try changing get_sol to:

def get_sol(self):
  return '; '.join([group.gp_name for group in self.group.all()])

Post your second update, add a method on Test:

class Test(models.Model):
    member = models.ForeignKey('Member')

    def get_member_sol(self):
      return self.member.get_sol()

You can not use it like that. Because ManyToManyFields creates an intermadiate table to connect two tables. So group may return more than one result.

def group_gp_name(self):
    a = self.group.select_related()
    # this will return you a list, so
    return ','.join(x.gp_name for x in a)

This will return you all related pg_name values separated by (,)

UPDATE :

class Test(models.Model):
    member = models.ForeignKey('Member')


def get_gp_name(self):
    ','.join(x.gp_name for x in self.member.group.select_related())

Since msmber is a foreignkey, you do not have problem using "." notation to use foreignkey relation.
