Hi all;
I'm experimenting with subclassing models at the moment. Specifically,
I'm trying to add an optional element to the user class. The following
code works fine:
from django.core import meta
from django.models.auth import User
class MyUser(User):
about = meta.TextField(blank=True, default='')
class META:
module_name = 'm_users'
...however, there are already some users in the auth.users table in the
database. My question is: is there any easy way to get the new class to
retrieve data from the old table, using the default string to populate
the /about/ field?
I'm guessing that I could replace the module's get_object() somehow, but
I don't really want to if I don't have to.
TIA,
-Andy
