Hello,
Can I use django's generic relations to create a model (GenericPost) that can
point to other model (APost) or model (ReviewPost) ?
And then use this GenericPost model to get a list of all latest APost's and
ReviewPost's ?
I've been trying this all day long but I couldn't get around the API.
Here's what I've done:
from django.db import models
from django.contrib.contenttypes.models import ContentType
from django.contrib.contenttypes import generic
# Create your models here.
class Post(models.Model):
title = models.CharField(max_length=100)
class Meta:
abstract = True
class APost(Post):
content = models.CharField(max_length=100)
class Review(Post):
rcontent = models.CharField(max_length=100)
class GenericPost(models.Model):
content_type = models.ForeignKey(ContentType)
object_id = models.PositiveIntegerField()
content_object = generic.GenericForeignKey('content_type', 'object_id')
Some shell code trying to build up some data:
In [1]: from genericv.foo.models import APost, GenericPost, Review
In [2]: a = APost(content="something")
In [3]: a.save()
In [4]: g = GenericPost(content_object=a)
In [5]: g.save()
In [6]: GenericPost.objects.all()
Out[6]: [<GenericPost: GenericPost object>, <GenericPost: GenericPost object>,
<GenericPost: GenericPost object>, <GenericPost: GenericPost object>]
Why is it that I have 4 objects already when I only have created one ? And how
do I access that particular object by using the GenericPost model ?
