Access params in methods (post_create)

[Zerotask]

The problem

I'd like to pass an argument which is not part of the model, but used in the post_create method to create another object

Proposed solution

1. define it a a regular field and then set in in Meta's exclude would be one option
2. define it in Params and make this available, e.g. self.params.xxx

Example

class MyFactory(factory.django.DjangoModelFactory):
    class Meta:
        model = MyModel
        
    class Params:
        with_reminder = False
        
    first_name = factory.Faker("first_name")
    last_name = factory.Faker("last_name")
    
    def post_create(self, create, extracted, **kwargs):
        if create and self.params.with_reminder:
            Reminder.objects.create(related_object=self)


MyFactory() # no reminder
MyFactory(with_reminder=True)
