I have a model class, 'A_base', and a 2nd model class, 'A_derived'. When I
save an object of A_derived, I want the data from both my base and derived
class to be saved.
Example code looks like this:
class A_base(models.model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=50)
class A_derived(A_base):
role = models.CharField(max_length=50)
So when I call save(), I want to save an instance of the derived object,
including the data in the base class into my sqlite3 database. I would like
my code to look like this:
...
derived_obj = A_derived.objects.get(name="john")
derived_obj.role = "parent"
derived_obj.save()
...
My question is whether the save method will save 'role' to the A_derived
table and save 'name' to the A_base table? Or do I have to override the
save method so that it saves 'role' and then calls the base class save
method to save 'name'?
I tried doing this using the default save method and it created a stack
trace, so I'm guessing that I am expecting too much from the default save
method.
