I kind of like that suggestion. I just finished refactoring that way. It has the
effect of putting the admin and browse stuff with the data model which makes
sense to me.

Cheers, Bob

I would say that is slightly sub optimal.

There is nothing wrong with an app that consists solely of models, and another
app which provides views, templates and forms which uses models from the first
app and has no models of its own.

Yes, they just need to import the models from the module that they need. Be
aware, of circular imports, though. That is when one module imports from
another which also imports from the first one. Check the imports at the top
to make sure the module from which you are importing classes, modles, defs,
constants, does not import anything from the module that you are importing
into. Funny things happen, when you have circular imports, and when you are
beginning out they can be hard to troubleshoot.

Dumb newbie question

2012-02-17 Thread Bob Carlson
I'm well into beginning building my actual app after going through the tutorial,
but I have no feel yet for the answer to this question.

 

Can apps share a set of models? My application neatly divides into three pieces,
but all the pieces share the same data. Should these be 3 apps or 1? Can apps
freely share access to data models?

 

Cheers, Bob
