Re: Newbie : Object copy - weird error :-)

The following class is kinda weird:

class DataModel(DataModel):

A class which inherits itself???

Hi all :-)

I'd like to archive some data.

I did that :

class AbstractDataModel(models.Model):

xxx

class Meta:
        abstract = True


def __iter__(self):

        return iter([self.xxx, self.yyy, self.zzz, self.aaa,
            self.qqq, self.mode_bbb])

class DataModel(DataModel):

pass

class DataModelArchive(DataModel):
    # https://stackoverflow.com/questions/21699707/python-how-to-copy-all-attibutes-from-base-class-to-derived-one
    def __init__(self, source=None):
        if source is not None:
            self.__dict__.update(source.__dict__)

But when I want to access data in DataModelArchive, like DataModelArchive.objects.all() for example,
I get

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/.../tests.py", line 1090, in test_archive
    print(DataModelArchive.objects.all())
  File "/home/.../venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/django/db/models/query.py", line 248, in __repr__
    data = list(self[:REPR_OUTPUT_SIZE + 1])
  File "/home/.../venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/django/db/models/query.py", line 272, in __iter__
    self._fetch_all()
  File "/home/.../venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/django/db/models/query.py", line 1179, in _fetch_all
    self._result_cache = list(self._iterable_class(self))
  File "/home/.../venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/django/db/models/query.py", line 63, in __iter__
    obj = model_cls.from_db(db, init_list, row[model_fields_start:model_fields_end])
  File "/home/.../lib/python3.6/site-packages/django/db/models/base.py", line 507, in from_db
    new = cls(*values)
TypeError: __init__() takes from 1 to 2 positional arguments but 11 were given

What am I doing wrong ?

Thx
