Add AbstractLogEntry class to allow extension without creating additional table #580
Description
I would like to be able to extend LogEntry with custom fields without introducing an additional table. I think this can be be accomplished by introducing a new class AbstractBaseLogEntry, containing all of the code from LogEntry and adding:
class AbstractBaseLogEntry
class Meta:
abstract = True
# Existing code from LogEntry
class LogEntry(AbstractBaseLogEntry):
passNew fields could then be accommodated in the log as follows:
# In myapp.models
from auditlog.models import AbstractBaseLogEntry
class CustomLogEntry(AbstractBaseLogEntry):
new_field1 = models.CharField(max_length=255, blank=True, null=True)
