Hello, I'm new to web2py and python and currently try to build a small application just for learning purposes. Now I struggle because I don't know if my solution is the right way doing it.
I got three models called project, project_type and steps. A project belongs to a certain project_type and depending on what kind of project it is, includes different steps. For example "writing a book" is a project and belongs to the project_type "hobby project". "making a plan", "do it" and "get feedback" are steps for a "hobby project". So the project "writing a book" should contain this steps. Is it correct to create three tables, one for each model, and work with database reference or is this completly wrong and instead I should work with classes? Sorry for the silly question, but I'm just a noob trying to code something. ;-) This is my current database definition: db.define_table('project_type', Field('title', notnull=True, unique=True), Field('description', 'text', notnull=True), format='%(title)s') db.define_table('project', Field('name', notnull=True), Field('description', 'text', notnull=True), Field('project_type', db.project_type, notnull=True), format='%(name)s') db.define_table('step', Field('title', notnull=True, unique=True), Field('description', 'text', notnull=True), Field('project_id', db.project), format='%(title)s') db.define_table('project_type_with_steps', Field('type_id', db.project_type), Field('step_id', db.step)) All the best Andreas -- --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
