11. Relating an object to itself, many-to-one
|
|
|
|
To define a many-to-one relationship between a model and itself, use
|
|
``ForeignKey('self')``.
|
|
|
|
In this example, a ``Category`` is related to itself. That is, each
|
|
``Category`` has a parent ``Category``.
|
|
|
|
Set ``related_name`` to designate what the reverse relationship is called.
