match_on referential fields

[gregoriopellegrino]

I can't find in the documentation how to match a record on an referential field.

Hey, yes the docs are a little light at the moment, but you can find some examples here:

https://django-nsync.readthedocs.io/en/latest/examples.html#example-referential-fields

NB: Nsync doesn't handle "through" style relationship yet (i.e. a plain ManyToMany).

Ok but how can I refer to Referential Field in the match_on column?

I've tried Publisher=>PublisherID or just PublisherID, but didn't worked.

[andrewdodd]

At this stage you can't. Sorry!

(You would have to try to set the related link from the other side of your relationship).

I am trying to understand your change that fixed this.

Could you comment here with your models (cutdown) and a 1-line CSV?

[gregoriopellegrino]

I've added this line (#75):
match_field = match.replace(ModelAction.REFERRED_TO_DELIMITER, "__")

To manage this CSV:
"action_flags","match_on","Publisher=>PublisherID","BookID","Title" "cu","Publisher=>PublisherID BookID",2,10,"My Book"
