Hi I'm new to satchmo, but not to database applications.
I need to add an attribute to product but the default "satchmo product
attribute" and "brand attribute"doesn't fit my needs because it's a 1:n
relationship, and i need grouping and ordering every list on that field,
i know my english isn't good so it's better the simple bookshop example:
category.html
------------------ slug=science
Science
Technology
book1
book2
book3
Physics
book1
book2
book3
---------------------- slug =Child
Child
Fairy tales
book1
book2
book3
Adventure
book1
book2
book3
---------------------------------- slug = travel
Travel
Asia
book1
book2
book3
Europe
book1
book2
book3
Every book has a publisher, and as i read on satchmo docs I can use
product attribute but i have 2 problems
1- I would like in the admin page not to write everytime the name of
publisher but choose from a combo( brands let me do it, but it's 1:n too)
2 - I need every list has publisher as the last grouping field
Referring the example it should become
category.html
------------------ slug=science
Science
Technology
Publisher1
book1
book2
Publisher2
book3
Physics
Publisher1
book1
Publisher2
book2
book3
---------------------- slug =Child
Child
Fairy tales
Publisher3
book1
book2
book3
Adventure
Publisher1
book1
book2
book3
---------------------------------- slug = travel
Travel
Asia
Publisher2
book1
Publisher4
book2
book3
Europe
Publisher1
book1
book2
book3
In a normal database application i would add a field "pub_id" on product
table and make a lookup on a "Publisher table" (so I can order and
grouping without problems)
In Satchmo i think the best approach is to make almost the same thing,
modifing "Product" model adding pub_id field and creating Publisher table
Is this correct ?
Thanks to all
