Given the following: from pydal import DAL from pydal.objects import Field, FieldMethod, FieldVirtual from qlf import util ccfg = util.Config()
db = DAL(ccfg.connect_db.dal_string, migrate=False, pool_size=5) db.define_table('workorder', Field('parent_workorder', 'reference workorder'), Field('product'), Field('quantity', 'decimal(11,2)')) db.workorder.children = Field.Virtual(lambda row: db(db.workorder.parent_workorder == row.id).select()) wo = db.workorder(248222) print(wo.children) ...I get this when I run the code: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/jim/dev/miscellaneous/projects/scratch/virtual_fields_test.py" , line 15, in <module> print(wo.children) File "/home/jim/.local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pydal/objects.py", line 167, in __getattr__ raise AttributeError AttributeError What I'm trying to do is get a list of all child workorders for a specific workorder. I've also tried using Field.Method and calling as a function, but get an attribute error as well. Anyone have experience with Virtual Fields? I haven't used them in or out of web2py yet but am interested. Basically, I'm trying to reproduce the 'backref' behavior from SQLAlchemy.
