Fixed #24716 -- Deprecated Field._get_val_from_obj()

Browse Source 
The method duplicates the functionality of Field.value_from_object()
and has the additional downside of being a privately named public
API method.

@@ -705,15 +705,16 @@ Converting field data for serialization
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
To customize how the values are serialized by a serializer, you can override
:meth:`~Field.value_to_string`. Calling ``Field._get_val_from_obj(obj)`` is the
best way to get the value serialized. For example, since our ``HandField`` uses
strings for its data storage anyway, we can reuse some existing conversion code::
:meth:`~Field.value_to_string`. Using ``value_from_object()`` is the best way
to get the field's value prior to serialization. For example, since our
``HandField`` uses strings for its data storage anyway, we can reuse some
existing conversion code::
class HandField(models.Field):
# ...
def value_to_string(self, obj):
value = self._get_val_from_obj(obj)
value = self.value_from_object(obj)
return self.get_prep_value(value)
Some general advice
