Thanks for the reply. I'm not new to Python so much as I'm overwhelmed
fairly often by all the jargon, but I'm wading my way through it.
Thanks for the link.
I added the import as you suggested to my model and for some reason
I'm still getting the error. I'll post my model in it's entirety,
which hopefully adds some more insight but I doubt anything else is
relevant.
from django.db import models
from projects.models import Project, Location
from users.models import User
class AlphaEvent(models.Model):
project = models.ForeignKey('projects.Project')
location = models.ForeignKey('projects.Location')
employee = models.ForeignKey('users.User')
task = models.CharField(max_length = 10) #Need
Task Model
notes = models.CharField(max_length = 1000)
completed = models.BooleanField()
def __unicode__(self):
return u'%s: %s' % (self.project, self.employee)
class BetaEvent(models.Model):
alpha_event = models.ForeignKey(AlphaEvent)
date = models.DateField() #Needs to be unique
for date on user
def __unicode__(self):
return u'%s: %s (%s)' % (AlphaEvent.project,
AlphaEvent.employee,
self.date)
