**Custom validation:**

* There's a custom model validation, defined in `clean`. This validation uses only model fields and no relations.

* This requires someone to call `full_clean()` on the model instance. The best place to do that is in the `save()` method of the model. Otherwise people can forget to call `full_clean()` in the respective service.

|

- `visible_teachers` is a great candidate for a **selector**.
|
||||
|
||||
We have few general rules for custom validations & model properties / methods:
|
||||
|
||||
### Custom validation
|
||||
|
||||
* If the custom validation depends only on the **non-relational model fields**, define it in `clean` and call `full_clean` in `save`.
|
||||
* If the custom validation is more complex & **spans relationships**, do it in the service that creates the model.
|
||||
* It's OK to combine both `clean` and additional validation in the `service`.
|
||||
|
||||
- If the custom validation depends only on the **non-relational model fields**, define it in `clean` and call `full_clean` in `save`.
|
||||
- If the custom validation is more complex & **spans relationships**, do it in the service that creates the model.
|
||||
- It's OK to combine both `clean` and additional validation in the `service`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Properties
|
||||
|
||||
* If your model properties use only **non-relational model fields**, they are OK to stay as properties.
|
||||
* If a property, such as `visible_teachers` starts **spanning relationships**, it's better to define a selector for that.
|
||||

||||
- If your model properties use only **non-relational model fields**, they are OK to stay as properties.
|
||||
- If a property, such as `visible_teachers` starts **spanning relationships**, it's better to define a selector for that.
|
||||
|
||||
### Methods
|
||||
|
||||
* If you need a method that updates several fields at once (for example - `created_at` and `created_by` when something happens), you can create a model method that does the job.
|
||||
* Every model method should be wrapped in a service. There should be no model method calling outside a service.

The way we do Django is inspired by the following things:

* [Boundaries by Gary Bernhardt](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yTkzNHF6rMs)
