Hello,
I'm just starting out in really trying to get a Django app on its
feet, even though I've played with it on and off for a couple weeks.
Here's where my first cryptic error begins.
I tried extend users.User in the most basic fashion I could think of:
class Stakeholder(meta.Model):
user = meta.ForeignKey(users.User, num_in_admin=1, \
max_num_in_admin=1, unique=True, blank = True, \
null=True, default = None, edit_inline=meta.TABULAR)
company = meta.CharField(maxlength=200)
class META:
admin = meta.Admin()
def __repr__(self):
return self.user.get_full_name()
It seemed that the model worked sort of correctly (even though I could
not figure out how to edit_inline a new user when creating a new
stakeholder, but this not a major issue at the moment).
The problems began when I tried adding the above __repr__. The error I
get when creating a new stakehold in the admin/ app is cryptic to me
(I pasted it at the end of this email).
How do I correctly access User variables in this model? Should I be
using a different approach?
I realize that it may be an obvious error, but I have gone through the
documentation, and have not found anything relevant to my problem.
Please help a new user from wasting many hours trying to debug
this. :-)
I'm using MR-branch, if that is relevant. And the reason I did not use
OneToOneField or inheritance is because I've read those options are
not currently the best idea for extending User.
Any advice or help would be most appreciated,
Norbert.
