I am learning Python and Django. Now, my challange is developing threaded generic comment system. There is two models, Post and Comment.
-Post can be commented.
-Comment can be commented. (endless/threaded)
-Should not be a n+1 query problem in system. (No matter how many comments, should not increase the number of queries)
My current models are like this:
class Post(models.Model):
title = models.CharField(max_length=100)
content = models.TextField()
child = generic.GenericRelation(
'Comment',
content_type_field='parent_content_type',
object_id_field='parent_object_id'
)
class Comment(models.Model):
content = models.TextField()
child = generic.GenericRelation(
'self',
content_type_field='parent_content_type',
object_id_field='parent_object_id'
)
parent_content_type = models.ForeignKey(ContentType)
parent_object_id = models.PositiveIntegerField()
parent = generic.GenericForeignKey(
"parent_content_type", "parent_object_id")
Are my models right? And how can i get all comment (with hierarchy) of post, without n+1 query problem?
Note: I know mttp and other modules but I want to learn this system.
Edit: I run "Post.objects.all().prefetch_related("child").get(pk=1)
" command and this gave me post and its child comment. But when I wanna get child command of child command a new query is running. I can change command to ...prefetch_related("child__child__child...")...
then still a new query running for every depth of child-parent relationship. Is there anyone who has idea about resolve this problem?
