In web2py you would do
CLASS_TYPE = (('field1', 'Field1'), ('field2', 'Field2'))
db.define_table('myclass',
Field('type', length=12, requires=IS_IN_SET(CLASS_TYPE)),
Field('name',length=10),
Field('set','boolean',default=False),
Field('isset','boolean',default=False),
Field('enable','boolean',default=False),
Field('source','reference source'))
Then you can do
rows = db(db.myclass).select() # kind of like MyClass.objects
The difference in philosophical because:
1) In web2py methods maps 1-1 into SQL, in Django no
db.table.insert(...)
db(...).select()
db(...).update(...)
db(...).delete()
2) In web2py SQL TABLES are difference instances of one class Table, in
Django each table is its own class
3) In web2py a record is a Row object (like a dict) while in Django a
record is an instance of the corresponding class.
The problem with the latter which motivated web2py is the results of joins
and aggregates? What classes are those rows? In web2py they are always Row
objects. They can contain columns from multiple tables or results of
expressions that are not associated with any of the original tables and the
syntax is always the same.
