A django abstract model and form for handling extra content in a model.
Project Description
–
A django abstract model and form for handling extra content in a model.
Let’s say we have a model MyData which can point to different underlying data types:
from django.db import models from extracontent.models import ExtraContent from extracontent.forms import ExtraContentForm class DataModel1(models.Model): value = models.TextField() class DataModel2(models.Model): dt = models.DateField() class MyData(ExtraContent): name = models.CharField(max_length = 20) class MyDataForm(ExtraContentForm): class Meta: model = MyData
Then we can do this:
>>> from extracontent import content >>> elem = MyDataForm({'content_type':content('datamodel1'), ... 'value':'this is a test', name:'a data object'}).save() >>> elem.extra_content() <DataModel1: DataModel1 object> >>> elem.extra_content().value 'this is a test'
Running Tests
Once installed:
>>>from extracontent.tests import run >>>run()
or from within the tests directory:
python runtests.py
