I am needing to do some duct taping for a project that is going on right now. In it I need to take a values_list of id's from a ManyToMany field and save those values to a varchar field so a mysql query can access the values. I am working with two different sets of developers and this is the best we can come up with in such a short period of time
Here is the model: Candidate filing_id = models.IntegerField() name = models.CharField() Race: name = models.CharField() primary_advance = models.ManyToManyField('Candidate') primary_advnace_list = models.CahrField() def(save, *args, **kwargs): primary_ids = self.primary_advace.values_list('id', flat=True) if primary_ids.count() > 0: primary_advance_list = primary_ids else: primary_advance_list = [] super(Race, self).save(*args, **kwargs) I've tried this but I'm coming back with empty values for the list fields. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
