Due to external constraints, I need to define two tables that are actually siblings and a third table's field that can choose from any of said tables.
e.g.: db.define_table('melon') db.define_table('watermelon') I need the third table's field to be a reference to either of the two first tables. Is there a way to define this in terms of field type and validators ? I was thinking along the lines of: db.define_table('my_table', Field('fruit_id', type=???, requires=IS_IN_DB(db, db.melon, _or=IS_IN_DB(db, db.watermelon))) or maybe: db.define_table('my_table', Field('fruit_id', type=???, requires=any([IS_IN_DB(db, db.melon), IS_IN_DB(db, db.watermelon)])) But of course it doesn't work... How can I work around this issue ? -- Resources: - http://web2py.com - http://web2py.com/book (Documentation) - http://github.com/web2py/web2py (Source code) - https://code.google.com/p/web2py/issues/list (Report Issues) --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
