Hello,
I have to do a bit of a code rewrite and I want to measure twice and cut
once with this.
I need to store use extra information about each user, so I'm creating a
profile. And each user can follow other users, so I create a ManyToMany
field referencing the User model, and not "self" correct?
Like so:
class Profile(models.Model):
"""Storing extra info about user"""
name = models.OneToOneField(User, related_name='profile')
moreinfo = models.TextField()
friends = models.ManyToManyField(User, blank=True, through='Relationship',
symmetrical=False,
related_name='relationship')
class Relationship(models.Model):
from_user = models.ForeignKey(User, related_name='from_user')
to_user = models.ForeignKey(User, related_name='to_user')
rtype = models.TextField()
moreinfo = models.TextField(null=True, blank=True)
class Meta:
unique_together = ('from_user', 'to_user')
*Rather than like so:*
class Profile(models.Model):
"""Storing extra info about user"""
name = models.OneToOneField(User, related_name='profile')
moreinfo = models.TextField()
friends = models.ManyToManyField(self, blank=True, through='Relationship',
symmetrical=False,
related_name='relationship')
class Relationship(models.Model):
from_user = models.ForeignKey(Profile, related_name='from_user')
to_user = models.ForeignKey(Profile, related_name='to_user')
rtype = models.TextField()
moreinfo = models.TextField(null=True, blank=True)
class Meta:
unique_together = ('from_user', 'to_user')
