django-reversion is a Django extension that adds version control for model instances, tracking revisions and enabling rollback. It integrates with the Django admin and supports recovering deleted model instances.

Use cases

  • roll back a Django model instance to a previous version
  • recover deleted rows in a Django app
  • track change history of database records
  • add version history to Django admin
  • audit who changed model data over time

When to choose

  • you use Django's ORM and need per-model revision history
  • you want admin-integrated rollback and deleted-object recovery
  • you need a mature, BSD-licensed versioning library for Django models

When to avoid

  • you need full database-level audit logging across raw SQL
  • you use a non-Django framework or non-ORM data access
  • you need event-sourcing with replayable event streams
