Given the following models:(don't mind the TextFields there're just for illustration)
class Base(models.Model):
field1 = models.TextField()
class Meta:
abstract=True
class Child1(Base):
child1_field = models.TextField()
class Child2(Base):
child2_field = models.TextField()
class Content(models.Model):
aso_items = models.ManyToManyField('Base')
According to these definitions a Content object can be associated with more than one Base object, eg. an interview(=Content object) can be linked with a musician(=Child1 object), a filmdirector(=Child2), etc.
Now, for my question: Is it possible to filter Content objects according to which model the aso_items field points to? An example : Say I would like a Queryset containing all the Content objects that are associated with a specific object of Child1(eg. all the interviews associated with the musician Bob Dylan), how can I achieve this?
Further, what if I'd want a QuerySet containing all the Content objects that are associated with Child1 objects?(eg. all the interviews that associated with musicians) How does this change the filtering?
Thanks in advance ps: I'm experiencing some problems with white space in the preview, forgive me
