I am writing my first django app. I have Items, which can have multiple
comments associated with them.
Normally, I could express this in my model as:
---
class Comment(models.Model):
comment = models.TextField(core=True)
item = models.ForeignKey(Item)
class Item(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(core=True, max_length=255, unique=True)
---
However, I am trying to learn to split my project up into individual
applications, and have thus put the comment functionality in its own
app. I dont mind if the Item app knows about the Comment app, but I
don't want to Comment app to reference the Item app (so I can use
comments with other apps / types in the future).
So, is there anyway to express a OneToMany relationship from the Item?
Something like:
class Comment(models.Model):
comment = models.TextField(core=True)
class Item(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(core=True, max_length=255, unique=True)
comments = models.OneToMany(Comment)
That would accomplish the same as above, but would allow me to keep my
Comment model from having to know what type of objects it is being
associated with.
I apologize if this has an obvious answer. Again, I am new to django,
and trying to work my way through the best way to use the framework
(which I love, btw).
