The relationship you've set up - one template can have many associated documents, do I understand correctly? So every document will have a reference to the Template that it's associated with. If that's the case, you've only set it up for one template per Document. A default doesn't make sense in that case.
If I've misunderstood and inverted your plan, then each template will have a reference to a single document. In that case I'd consider a reference to a default Template in the Document (foreignKey) that was labelled "default". You wouldn't want an "is_default" on the Template because each document could have a different one, and the references would quickly become confused. -joe On 2/2/07, [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Hi community, > > For a smallish app, I want to manage document templates (model: Template) > for > documents (model: Document). > Template has a foreign key on Document (many to one relationship). > > Now, I want a default Template per Document. > How would I do that? > > I thought of various implementations: > - having a field 'is_default' on model Template? > - using OneToOne relationship (though documentation advises not to use > that)? > - ... ? > > What would you suggest? > What is the most beautiful (djangotic/pythonic) way to implement this > "default" > Template for Document, and why? > > Thanks in advance. > > > > --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
