On the other hand, this means two separate calls to .select() to draw
Files and Directories while with InheritableSQLObject it could be one.
And this means the original design was wrong, perhaps. I think you don't
need two different MultipleJoins - you need one (all directory entries) and
two filters. Let me show this with the code:
class DirEntry(InheritableSQLObject):
name = StringCol()
parent = ForeignKey("DirEntry")
class File(DirEntry):
pass
class Directory(DirEntry):
entries = MultipleJoin("DirEntry", joinColumn="parent_id")
def _filter_entries(self, klass):
return [entry for entry in self.entries if isinstance(entry, klass)]
def _get_files(self):
return self._filter_entries(File)
def _get_directories(self):
return self._filter_entries(Directory)
DirEntry.createTable()
File.createTable()
Directory.createTable()
root = Directory(name='/', parent=None)
etc = Directory(name='/etc', parent=root)
X11 = Directory(name='/etc/X11', parent=etc)
passwd = File(name='/etc/passwd', parent=etc)
print etc.directories
print etc.files
