9. Many-to-many relationships via an intermediary table
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For many-to-many relationships that need extra fields on the intermediary
|
||
|
|
table, use an intermediary model.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In this example, an ``Article`` can have multiple ``Reporter``s, and each
|
||
|
|
``Article``-``Reporter`` combination (a ``Writer``) has a ``position`` field,
|
||
|
|
which specifies the ``Reporter``'s position for the given article (e.g. "Staff
|
||
|
|
writer").
