Re: Pass search term (key) to ViewField

[Alexander Shorin]

Hi Jason!

There you have two cases:

1. Through Database.view[1] method:

for row in db.view('by_post_id', key=3545639712):
print row

2. Through ViewField (assuming there is such for Post mapping):

for row in Post.by_post_id(db, key=3545639712):
print row

Both are equivalent: ViewField (actually, ViewDefinition) is just a
wrapper around Database.view method. Any query parameters you have to
pass as keyword arguments.
