multiple recipes with common foreign_keys

[Jacob G]

If I have recipes like this:

org = Recipe(

    'my.Organization',

    active=True

)

org_unit = Recipe(

    'my.OrganizationUnit',

    organization=foreign_key(org),

    active=True

)

dept = Recipe(

    'my.Department',

    organization=foreign_key(org),

    active=True

)

employee = Recipe(

    'my.Employee',

    organization=foreign_key(org),

    org_unit=foreign_key(org_unit),

    department=foreign_key(dept),

    active=True

)

And I want to create an employee with an existing organization like this:

org = mommy.make_recipe('my.org') 

 # ... use org to create some other models which have nothing to do with employee ....

mommy.make_recipe('my.employee', organization=org)

I would like the org passed to the Employee recipe to be automagically passed into the creation of org_unit and dept. But in reality, they're not. Is there a different way to accomplish this. Otherwise, I'd have to basically make every receipt explicitly.

maybe 

mommy.make_recipe('my.employee', organization=org, org_unit__organization=org, department__organization=org)

is what you're looking for.

Thanks, I mean a way to declare it in the recipe. For example, in factory_boy I can do this:

class EmployeeFactory(factory.django.DjangoModelFactory):
    class Meta:
        model = models.Employee

    first_name = u'Fédérée'
    last_name = u'Employee'
    active = True

    organization = factory.SubFactory(OrganizationFactory)
    org_unit = factory.SubFactory(OrganizationUnitFactory, organization=factory.SelfAttribute('..organization'))
    department = factory.SubFactory(DepartmentFactory, organization=factory.SelfAttribute('..organization'))

ok, i guess you can use the "related" function, in order to use other related recipes

Is this supported?

dept = Recipe(

    'my.Department',

    organization=foreign_key(org),

    active=True

)

employee = Recipe(

    'my.Employee',

    organization_set=related(dept_org)

)

i.e., in my scenario, I don't just want to share the same parent. I want to share the foreign key of a parent.

Currently, you can point to the same recipe, using the "related" function. 

But it will not point to the same registry used by other model (i think you meant this, if i understood correctly). It will just create other with the same parameters.
