This is true, and you can write your own constructor if you want to
override the behavior of the default constructor:
class Person(Entity):
has_field('name', Unicode, required=True)
has_field('lastname', Unicode, required=True)
has_field('title', Unicode)
def __init__(self, name='', lastname='', title='No Title'):
self.name = name
self.lastname = lastname
self.title = title
people = [
{ 'title':'Mr','name':'Darth','lastname':'Vader' },
{'name':'Luke', 'lastname':'Skywalker'}
]
for person in people:
Person(**person)
No need for changes in Elixir, you just need to take better advantage of
what Python has to offer :)
