autopopulate.py

This module defines class dj.AutoPopulate

AutoPopulate

AutoPopulate is a mixin class that adds the method populate() to a Relation class. Auto-populated relations must inherit from both Relation and AutoPopulate, must define the property key_source, and must define the callback method make.
