Sorry for the confusing title. Here is a simple example to illustrate
my question:
class Item(models.Model):
name = models.CharField()
class Manager(models.Model):
item = models.ForeignKey(Item)
On a POST I have the PK of the Item I want to link to a new instance
of the Manager object. I am saving a new Manager object that will be
linked to the Item with the PK i have. So I can do:
item_pk = request.POST.get('item')
item = Item.objects.get(pk=item_pk)
new_manager = Manager(item=item)
new_manager.save()
...but I don't like the idea of grabbing the item object first. Is
there any way to just save the new Manager object with just the PK of
the Item, thus avoiding the database call to grab the Item object?
Thanks!
