This is what I have working here:
db.define_table('father',
Field('name'),
format='%(name)s' # this format is not working on SQLTABLE as
reported by many users.
)
db.define_table('son',
Field('name'),
Field('father_id',db.father,represent=lambda r:r.name), #this is
the workaround
format='%(name)s'
)
That is what I got in *SQLTABLE*
my_sqltable :
son.id son.name son.padre 1 Mike John
without that workaround we got:
my_sqltable :
son.id son.name son.padre 1 Mike 1
with format='%(name)s' it is rendering as:
my_sqltable :
son.id son.name son.padre 1 Mike None
