Add modified date to items model #enhancement

iamgollum opened this issue · comments

I realize that changuito is covering generic cases and is supposed to be flexible; however, it still may be important to have a modified date for each item in the model by default.

Case Study:

I have been customizing changuito to drive bidding for a auction platform [a very complex system depending on the type of auction (ie. auction theory and its algorithms and special cases). ] and bidders may be allowed to lower or raise bids. However, ties may occur in bidding and knowing the modification date of the item can prove useful for updating the under bidder, for example.

Just a thought

Would you mind to suggest an option that doesn't mean including new fields to the model? your case in particular is very special, and I am sure is not the common use, so if you elaborate a little bit more the problem and add some code examples we can think something right?

Sure thing. I am currently busy with school but i will give it some more thought.
