I have a Declarative Base model that is laid out like:
content -> page -> block
block
block
block is a meta that points to a block table and a further object of
element. page is a many to many to block placement, but, is a one to
one to block, blocks is a many to many to elements.
As part of the processing in the template, I need to pass
content.page.block[1] to a mako function where [1] is determined by a
match on the one to one name.
Basically, I need to get the position of:
content.page.blocks[].block.name where block.name = 'whatever'
so that I can pass content.page.blocks to my mako function.
As a temporary workaround, I've done the following which loops through
the objects, but, is there any way to force SQLAlchemy to use a
dictionary rather than a list when addressing blocks?
<%def name='element(blockname, content)'>
<% print content.page.blocks[0].block.name %>
% for block in content.page.blocks:
% if block.block.name == blockname:
% for element in block.elements:
<% output = getattr(h.CMS(), element.element.function)() %>
${output}
% endfor
% endif
% endfor
</%def>
In this situation, I need to know if content.page.blocks[0].block.name
== blockname and then pass content.page.blocks to h.CMS().
Or am I missing something obvious here?
Thank you.
