Hi. Still learning, slowly. This is Django 1.0.2
The relevant models are Unit, Connector and Cable
class Cable(models.Model):
cable = models.CharField(max_length=8, blank=False)
desc = models.CharField(max_length=128, blank=True)
cabletype = models.ForeignKey(Cabletype, blank=True, null=True)
connector_left = models.ForeignKey(Connector,
related_name='cable_left', blank=True, null=True)
connector_right = models.ForeignKey(Connector,
related_name='cable_right', blank=True, null=True)
length = models.DecimalField
(max_digits=8,decimal_places=2,blank=True,null=True)
version = models.ForeignKey(Version, blank=True, null=True)
def __unicode__(self):
return '%s:%s' % (self.cable, self.version)
class Meta:
ordering = ['cable']
unique_together=('cable','version')
class Unit(models.Model):
unit = models.CharField(max_length=8, blank=False)
desc = models.CharField(max_length=128, blank=True)
rack = models.ForeignKey(Rack)
version = models.ForeignKey(Version, blank=True, null=True)
def __unicode__(self):
return '%s-%s' % (unicode(self.rack), self.unit)
class Meta:
ordering = ['rack','unit']
unique_together=('rack','unit')
class Connector(models.Model):
connector = models.CharField(max_length=8, blank=False)
desc = models.CharField(max_length=128, blank=True)
unit = models.ForeignKey(Unit)
connectortype = models.ForeignKey(Connectortype, blank=True,
null=True)
def __unicode__(self):
return '%s-%s' % (unicode(self.unit), self.connector)
class Meta:
ordering = ['unit','connector']
unique_together=('unit','connector')
Attempting my first reportlab report I get this TypeError:
coercing to Unicode: need string or buffer, Connector found
at the last line in the following view (very much a prototype)
<snip>
cables = Cable.objects.all()
for cable in cables:
print "cable=",
cable # prints OK
print "connector_left=", cable.connector_left
#prints OK
p = Paragraph(cable.cable+cable.desc+cable.connector_left,
style)
If I make the last line:
p = Paragrapg(cable.cable+cable.desc,style)
the report is generated correctly.
What does the TypeError want me to change?
Thanks
Mike
