Is there a way to adjust inherited verbose_name and help_text in child
tables depending on which child table is inheriting?
Sergiy Khohlov very kindly offered a generic OOP solution[1] to a recent
question I asked "how can an abstract class know which class inherits it"
I tried Sergiy's solution but couldn't get it working. However, I'm sure
this has been solved before. Maybe Sergiy's solution would have worked
if I coded it properly. Here is the problem ...
class Flavours(models.Model):
flavour = models.CharField(max_length=99, verbose_name="to be set
by inheritor", help_text="to be set by inheritor")
sauce = models.CharField(max_length=99, verbose_name="to be set by
inheritor", help_text="to be set by inheritor")
class Meta:
abstract = True
class Pizza(Flavours):
base = models.CharField(max_length=99)
class Pasta(Flavours):
pasta_shape = models.CharField(max_length=99)
Thanks
Mike
[1] Thanks Sergiy ...
class ParentClass(object):
def __init__(self, name):
print "Constructor parent"
print "Called from ", name
class ChildClass(ParentClass):
def __init__(self):
super(ChildClass,self).__init__("Child")
print "Child Constructor"
