Hello, I am trying to create a self reference so that a Node has children and parents but the information is stored in an association parent so that a Node can have more than one parent.
http://www.sqlalchemy.org/docs/04/mappers.html#advdatamapping_relation_selfreferential Tables like this: node_table = Table("node", model.metadata, Column("id", Integer, primary_key=True), Column("title", String(255), nullable=False), Column("customer_id", Integer, ForeignKey('customer.id')), Column("content", String, default=''), Column("created", DateTime), Column("createdby_id", Integer, default=24), Column("username", String, default='') ) node_association_table = Table('nodelink', model.metadata, Column("id", Integer, primary_key=True), Column('child_id', Integer, ForeignKey('node.id')), Column('parent_id', Integer, ForeignKey('node.id')), ) mapper(Node, node_table, properties={ 'children':relation(Node, primaryjoin=(node_association_table.c.parent_id==Node.c.id)), 'parents':relation(Node, primaryjoin=(node_association_table.c.child_id==Node.c.id)), }) I have tried several (many) variations on how to relate, and it seems that no matter what it doesn't want the same type (Node) to be listed twice? Any suggestions would be much appreciated. I also looked at the tree examples, but they all only supported one parent. http://www.sqlalchemy.org/trac/browser/sqlalchemy/trunk/examples/adjacencytree Thanks Aaron --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sqlalchemy" group.
