armstrong.apps.related_content 2.0.3

Usage

You do not have to change your models to utilize related content—it exists outside of your model. There are two fields that you can add that give you easy access to your related content:

• armstrong.apps.related_content.fields.RelatedObjectsField

• armstrong.apps.related_content.fields.ReverseRelatedObjectsField

The first let’s you access objects where your model is the source, the latter lets you access objects where your model is the destination. Note that these return the actual models that are related, not the RelatedContent model. If you need access to the raw RelatedContent model directly from your model, see armstrong.apps.related_content.fields.RelatedContentField.

You can also use the RelatedContentInline for exposing an admin interface to your related content inside Django’s admin.

{{ my_article.related.articles.0 }}
