Until [#11154] is fixed, django won't create permissions for proxy models for you as it does with other models, even the one you define using the permissions
option on your models.
This snippet will make sure all permissions are create for proxy models. Just make sure this code gets loaded after the update_contenttypes
handler is registered for the post_syncdb
signal. Putting this code in one of your INSTALLED_APPS' after
django.contrib.contenttypes' should do it.

Creates permissions for proxy models which are not created automatically

see https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/11154
This method is inspired by `django.contrib.auth.managment.create_permissions`.
Since we can't rely on `get_for_model' we must fallback to `get_by_natural_key`.
However, this method doesn't automatically create missing `ContentType` so
we must ensure all the model's `ContentType` are created before running this method.
We do so by unregistering the `update_contenttypes` `post_syncdb` signal and calling
it in here just before doing everything.

Hi,
I get in create_proxy_permissions Permission.objects.bulk_create(objs) AttributeError: 'PermissionManager' object has no attribute 'bulk_create'
Any idea?
Regards,

Hi Charettes,
i get the same error message 'dkdndes' described, when running a sync db command on a totally clean database.
Django code version is: (1, 3, 0, 'final', 0).
Am i doing something wrong?
Best regards, Volker

Unfortunately, bulk_create is new in the development version (1.4)

Hi,
thanks for the useful snippet. I had to make 2 small modifications:
(in order to make the modified line 23 to work, I had to import django). Actually I don't know why your line 23 didn't work for me, but it raised me an exception like:
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'get_models'
to verify, in a django shell i run:
and it executed it. nevertheless, the problem at line 38 seems a real bug (in django 1.5.1)
thanks again
