I have 3 tables defined in my model like so:
db.define_table('author',
Field('name', 'string'),
Field('bio', 'text'))
db.define_table('source',
Field('name', 'string'),
Field('description', 'text'))
# a table to store posted Quotes
db.define_table('post',
Field('body','text',label="Post Body"),
Field('posted_on','datetime',readable=False,writable=False),
Field('posted_by','reference auth_user',readable=False,writable=False),
Field('authorID', db.author),
Field('linkID', db.link))
I want to create a form that will allow the users to submit a post using
the following inputs:
- Post Body (db.post.body)
- Author Name (db.author.name)
- Link Name (db.link.name)
If the author already exists in the database, no record should be created.
If the link already exists then no record should be created either.
A record should be added to post containing either the newly created or
existing IDs for Author and Link.
How would I go about doing this? I am extremely new to Web2Py.
Thanks for your help!
