Hello all, Up to now, (admittedly not long - I'm not a total newbie but I still have a LOT to learn) when making a foreign key I would just put the pk of that instance in the fk field, as the docs suggest:
By default ForeignKey will target the pk of the remote model but this behavior can be changed by using the ``to_field`` argument. *https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.0/_modules/django/db/models/fields/related/#ForeignKey * However, recently while working with a scrapy pipeline, these fields started catching errors, which told me "...must be an instance of ...(foreign object)" And sure enough, if I did a get queryset for the one specific instance in question, that worked. My question is why, or maybe it should be, what's the difference, or maybe even, what's going on here, or wtf? Any light you can shed on this for me would, as always, be greatly appreciated. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
