As a test application to learn Django, I'm trying to model a network of
computers,
switches, patch panels and the connections between them. As a start, I have:
class Node(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=80)
description = models.CharField(max_length=80, null=True)
nodeLeft = models.ForeignKey('self')
nodeRight = models.ForeignKey('self')
# name of wire connecting to left and right nodes
labelLeft = models.CharField(max_length=20, null=True)
labelRight = models.CharField(max_length=20, null=True)
class Computer(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=80)
description = models.CharField(max_length=80, null=True)
interfaces = models.ManyToManyField(ComputerInterface)
class ComputerInterface(Node):
ipAddr = models.IPAddressField(null=True)
mbitsPerSec = models.IntegerField(null=True)
computer = models.OneToOneField(Computer)
I run into a problem because ComputerInterface is not defined at the time its
needed for
the "Computer" class:
File "/home/andy/src/django-test/netlist/nodes/models.py", line 17, in
Computer
interfaces = models.ManyToManyField(ComputerInterface)
NameError: name 'ComputerInterface' is not defined
Is there a way I can refer to a class not yet defined?
Thanks,
Andy
