May somebody provide an example of operating with many-to-many fields of django.db models' instances through django-tastypie and backbone-relational? That's possible now with using intermediate model.
from django.db import models
class Author(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=42)
class Book(models.Model):
authors = models.ManyToManyField(Author, related_name='books', through='Authorship')
title = models.CharField(max_length=42)
class Authorship(models.Model):
author = models.ForeignKey(Author)
book = models.ForeignKey(Book)
Here are possible tastypie resources' configuration:
from tastypie import fields, resources
class AuthorResource(resources.NamespacedModelResource):
books = fields.ToManyField('library.api.resources.AuthorshipResource', 'books')
class Meta:
resource_name = 'author'
queryset = models.Author.objects.all()
class BookResource(resources.NamespacedModelResource):
authors = fields.ToManyField('library.api.resources.AuthorshipResource', 'authors')
class Meta:
resource_name = 'book'
queryset = models.Book.objects.all()
class AuthorshipResource(resources.NamespacedModelResource):
author = fields.ToOneField('library.api.resources.AuthorResource', 'author')
book = fields.ToOneField('.api.resources.BookResource', 'book')
class Meta:
resource_name = 'authorship'
queryset = models.Authorship.objects.all()
