#django

ok how about this. 2 models Parent, Child. Child has fk to Parent. can I do Parent.objects.filter(child__name="Johnny") ?

i want all parents who have a child named Johnny?

i think you can do that yes

dman777_alter: if you could paste something in http://dpaste.org ?

do I send get variables to views.py ?

dman777_alter: name your column account_type_id

(in the db, not in django)

is there a good way to filter for objects that have empty sets for a particular foreign key relationship?

shoerain: sorry, here it is....http://bpaste.net/show/8dnmUawPZrkwrW8GKT5N/

apollo13: how? I thought the pk was automatic in the model...I have class AccountType(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length="25")

def __unicode__(self): return self.name

and the complement, so a Shelf has many Books, I want to get the Shelves that have Books

apollo13: here is a list of the columns from both Request and AccountType http://bpaste.net/show/K90ZL8iL0Nj1srJWSUOB/. I dion't see a id field for ether one so I am a little confused about a id needing to be there

It does not seem practical, when using generic class based views, to have one view per model, like is common rails' controllers. Is there a different design style that is more "right" for django, or am I missing something?

it seems verbose and bloated with a CreateView, a DetailView, an EditView, etc. PER MODEL

guys sorry to be direct .... but "i need the freaking code"

apollo13: oh wait...I think I see

anybody got any good video tutorials on how to get started?

setting up django , and getting going seems to be a bit overwhelming for someone new to coding

apollo13: in the shell there is a In [38]: requests[0].account_type_id; Out[38]: 3

The column is there, but the function isn't finding it...

marquee = [x for x in requests if x.account_type.name == 'Marquee']

It there anything wrong with this?

It works in the shell with no issues, but in the function I get OperationalError: no such column: requests_app_request.account_type_id

Hi guys. I am having a hard time getting my model to save while editing.

dman777_alter: please see the topic

apollo13: ugh...I see. I was in the wrong project directory! sorry. 2 hours ruined

dman777_alter: :/

thank you for trying to help

fix.verify is a BooleanField
