Hello, I wrote a model which is not abstract, and from which a few specialized classes derive:
| class Action( Model ): | item = ForeignKey( Item ) | # A few other properties | | class Move( Action ): | class Meta: | proxy = True | | class Pick( Action ) | class Meta: | proxy = True | (the foreign key to Item may seem strange, but Actions change their properties during the life cycle of an Item) My Action could be abstract, but I'd like to be able to select generic Actions. Am I correct in creating a non-abstract model for this purpose? My derived Actions add specialized interactions with other models, but I don't need more fields and I want to avoid changing the db when adding behaviours. Am I correct in creating proxy models for those specialized Actions? Consequently, my problem is that I can't restore a Move from an Action once saved. I tried to use ContentType, but its manager refers to the base model and loses the proxy. I could use a factory to instantiate the derived Actions, but fiddling with dynamic import doesn't sound right and portable. There is something I am missing here.
