Saving ``ForeignKey`` and ``ManyToManyField`` fields

----------------------------------------------------

Updating ``ForeignKey`` fields works exactly the same way as saving a normal

This example updates the ``blog`` attribute of an ``Entry`` instance ``entry``::
|

|

>>> from mysite.blog.models import Entry
|

>>> entry = Entry.objects.get(pk=1)
|
||||
>>> cheese_blog = Blog.objects.get(name="Cheddar Talk")
|
||||
>>> entry.blog = cheese_blog
|
||||
>>> entry.save()
|
||||
|
||||
Updating a ``ManyToManyField`` works a little differently; use the ``add()``
|

method on the field to add a record to the relation::

method on the field to add a record to the relation. This example adds the

``Author`` instance ``joe`` to the ``entry`` object::

>> joe = Author.objects.create(name="Joe")
|
||||
>> entry.authors.add(joe)
|

>>> from mysite.blog.models import Author
|

>>> joe = Author.objects.create(name="Joe")

Django will complain if you try to assign or add an object of the wrong type.
