Django self-referential foreign key

问题

I\'m kind of new to webapps and database stuff in general so this might be a dumb question. I want to make a model (\"CategoryModel\") with a field that points to the primary id of another instance of the model (its parent).

class CategoryModel(models.Model):
    parentId = models.ForeignKey(CategoryModel)

How do I do this? Thanks!

回答1:

You can pass in the name of a model as a string to ForeignKey and it will do the right thing.

So:

parentId = models.ForeignKey("CategoryModel")

Or you can use the string "self"

parentId = models.ForeignKey("self")

回答2:

You can use the string 'self' to indicate a self-reference.

class CategoryModel(models.Model):
    parentId = models.ForeignKey('self')

class Employee(models.Model):
    manager = models.ForeignKey('self', on_delete=models.CASCADE)

OR

class Employee(models.Model):
    manager = models.ForeignKey("app.Employee", on_delete=models.CASCADE)
