[Fixed]-How to get the instance of the model in clean()

by

✅

As usual in all python instancemethods, the current instance is the first positional parameter, canonically named self:

class MyModel(models.Model):
    # fields etc here

    def clean(self):
       print("current instance is {}".format(self))

EDIT:

Since you clarified the question, it seems that what you want is the current instance’s related storage, not the Consumption instance itself (which is self). And quite simply, since the current instance is self, the related storage instance is self.storage.
