I'm trying to set up my first Django application and I'm trying to
figure out the database relationships. I want to be able to list
albums, with their corresponding tracks and album artwork. Right now
I only have foreign keys defined in the Track class and on the
AlbumArt class pointing to the Album class. I'm doing this so I can
keep a record of which track or which album art goes to which album.
However I also would like to add a ManyToManyField on my Album class
so I can pull the album data in my view. Defining this is both places
seems redundant to me, but I'm not sure how else I can accomplish
this. What would be best practice in this situation and how should I
proceed?
class Album(models.Model):
title = models.CharField(max_length=255)
prefix = models.CharField(max_length=20, blank=True)
subtitle = models.CharField(blank=True, max_length=255)
slug = models.SlugField(unique=True)
artist = models.ForeignKey('Artist')
class AlbumArt(models.Model):
title = models.CharField(max_length=200)
slug = models.SlugField()
album = models.ForeignKey('Album')
class Track(models.Model):
title = models.CharField(max_length=200)
slug = models.SlugField(unique=True)
album = models.ForeignKey('Album')
artist = models.ForeignKey('Artist')
