I have started down the path of trying to convert my squishdot based
product to use the Catalog instead of the "old" Squishdot indexing system.
I have set up the _searchable_result_columns, and _searchable_arguments
methods for 4 of the variables I am interested in. I have placed the
self.reindex_object() call in the manage_edit method. I commented out the
old search interface.
Now, all seememd good until I tried to add variables that belonged to a
different meta_type. Which results in an AttributeError value: 0
Within my base class I have four different meta_types that can be added.
People
Promoters
Events
Hosts
Each of these objects contain different variables. People objects contain
"name", and promoter objects contain "promotername". How do I set it up
so that all of these values can be cataloged and searched? Do I have to
standardize naming conventions so that all objects share common variable
names? Or, can I define searchable paramaters within these objects?
Thanks for any ideas or suggestions!
