[Django]-How can I set a default value for a field in a Django model?

You can also use a callable in the default field, such as:

b = models.CharField(max_length=7, default=foo)

And then define the callable:

def foo():
    return 'bar'

You can set the default like this:

b = models.CharField(max_length=7,default="foobar")

and then you can hide the field with your model’s Admin class like this:

class SomeModelAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    exclude = ("b")
