If this is the wrong list to post a newbie question please let me
know. I'm getting an error message while trying to populate the tables
created by the models and not sure why. Here are the models
from django.db import models
class County(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=80)
slug = models.CharField(max_length=80)
def __unicode__(self):
return self.name
def get_absolute_url(self):
return "/countries/%s/" % self.slug
class Company(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=50)
address = models.CharField(max_length=80)
client = models.CharField(max_length=50)
city = models.CharField(max_length=50)
county = models.ForeignKey(Country)
dollar_amount = models.DecimalField('Cost (in dollars)',
max_digits=10, decimal_places=2)
def __unicode__(self):
return self.name
So I go into the shell and type this:
>>c=County(name='blah blah, slug="blah-blah")
then
>> l = Company(name='xyz corp', address='56 b. street', client='G corp', city =
>> 'Walla Walla', county='blah blah', dollar_amount =54000)
The error message I get is Valueerror: Cannot assign "blah blah" :
"Company.county" must be a "County" instance.
doesn't this create the instance?
>> c=County('blah blah', slug='blah-blah')
Any suggestion or point out my error would be appreciated.
