tastypie - Getting from ToManyField to Model values -

in django, have 2 models - user , userprofile. there may exist 0 or 1 profiles particular user. i'm trying include information userprofile model directly on userresource.

i use profile tomanyfield, if exists, access contents of associated userprofile model. i've tried variety of things in dehydrate, including self.profile.get_related_resource(self) , userprofile.objects.get(id=...), can't seem find way profile field model object. can me out?

i'm still new python, django, , tastypie, if i'm doing awful kind enough point out.

the goal have json looks this: { resourceuri: /v1/users/1 date_of_birth: jan 1, 1980 ... etc }

where date_of_birth property of userprofileresource. don't want of fields userprofileresource, , don't want userprofile nested object in response - want fields userprofileresource top-level fields in response, part of user resource.

class userresource(modelresource):     profile = fields.toonefield('foo.api.userprofileresource', 'user', null=true)      class meta:         queryset = user.objects.all()         resource_name = 'users'         allowed_methods = ['get']         #etc...   class userprofileresource(modelresource):     date_of_birth = ...     #etc 

i assume you're using django 1.4 , auth_profile_module?

since user:userprofile relationship 1:1 opt toonefield instead. serialize uri pointer userprofileresource (if 1 exists.) if you'd userprofileresource field data inline userresource, can specify full=true in toonefield definition. method should not need override dehydrate.

also, ensure second argument in toonefield definition user attribute points userprofile django model. example if have onetoonefield(user, related_name='profile') in django model attribute should profile.

class userresource(modelresource):     profile = fields.toonefield('foo.api.userprofileresource', 'profile',                                  full=true, null=true)      class meta:         queryset = user.objects.all()         resource_name = 'users'         allowed_methods = ['get'] 

---

if you're after specific fields userprofile instance mixed in user, should able this:

class userresource(modelresource):     date_of_birth = fields.datefield('profile__date_of_birth', null=true)      class meta:         queryset = user.objects.all()         resource_name = 'users'         allowed_methods = ['get']         fields = ['userfields', 'gohere', 'date_of_birth']
