Thanks a lot! It works but I still have a problem. I want to make one query
to get the root directory, all its children and the filenames of Image
objects.
My directory model looks like this:
class Directory(Node):
is_root = db.Column(db.Boolean, default=False)
children = db.relationship(Node, cascade_backrefs=False, backref=db.
backref('parent', remote_side=[Node.id]), lazy='joined', join_depth=10)
When I use the query that you suggested I get the filenames instantly but I
don't get the eager loading of the children. I also tried this:
db.session.query(Node).with_polymorphic([Directory, Image]).all()
And I still only get the filenames without eager loading of Directory
children.
