I'm looping through some JSON code and generating new model instances
that I am saving to my SQLiteDB.

I have 3 nested "for" loops, like this:

    for app_catalog in JSON_Object['TSS_WorkFlow_Catalog']:
        for eda_app in app_catalog['EDA_App']:
            new_eda_app =
EDA_App(isv=eda_app['isv'],product_name=eda_app['product_name'],product_category=eda_app['product_category'])
            new_eda_app.save()
            for cmd_str_pair in eda_app['CmdStrings']['name']:
                new_cmd_str = CmdString(name=cmd_str_pair['Text'],
cmd=cmd_str_pair['Value'], eda_app=new_eda_app)
                new_cmd_str.save()

My JSON file has 3 EDA_Apps, each EDA_App has 3, 4, and 4 CmdStrings,
respectively.

When I loop through the second nested "for" for the CmdStrings,
the .save() is writing to the same model instance, and at the end of
the first nested "for" loop, I have 3 CmdString instances in my DB,
NOT 3+4+4=11 CmdString instances.

Since my DB has 3 EDA_Apps in the DB, I think that the code to
instance a new model instance to save to the DB seems to be fine. It
is the second nested "for" loop that is acting fishy.  I don't know if
I am doing something wrong relative to the DB, because when I step
through the 2nd nested "for" loop, I can clearly see the "new_cmd_str"
taking on the next values from the JSON file.  This must be related to
how I am using the DB.

When I try using .save(force_insert=True) on the 2nd nested "for" loop
save, I receive a Django DEBUG page message that the "PRIMARY KEY must
be unique".

Any thoughts or observations on my code style?

Kind regards, Marc
