class Area (models.Model): name = models.CharField (= max_length 20, verbose_name = " name " ) parent = models.ForeignKey ( " Self " , verbose_name = " superior administrative division " ) class Meta: db_table = " db " verbose_name = " administrative division "
Inquired how that
If you know a city to pay a city, I want to check it belongs to what province
a = Area.objects.get(id=1)
# B is a city of the identity object
b = a.parent
If you know of a province, called a province, he check with what City
# B is the whole city of a province of the object
b = a.area_set.all () # lowercase class name + "set"
