Django accessing OneToOneField
django, model, python
Solution
I think you need to pass the user object and not a string.
client1 = User.objects.get(username="client_1") # this is the user object
client_obj = Client.objects.get(user=client1) # pass object NOT STRING
you can also do this: (assuming the user's id is given)
client1 = Client_objects.get(user__id=1) # pass the user's id instead
I hope it works ;)
Problem
Made a view that extended User: ``` class Client(models.Model): user = models.OneToOneField(User, related_name='user') def __unicode__(self): return "%s" % (self.user) ``` I am currently trying to access the User model by accessing the Client object. At the moment I am getting an error in the python shell: ``` ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: ``` I know it has something to do with accessing an OneToOneField but I don't know why. All the solutions I found were from the perspective of the User model and not the extended Client, in my case. To make it abit clearer. Whenever I access the User. ``` >>> client1 = User.objects.get(username="client1") >>> client1.user >>> client1.user.attribute ``` It echos the attributes of the extended Model, in this case the Client attribute. How can I achieve this the other way around. So through the Client model instead of the User model.
