> c = Comment(post=post, author_name=”Bob”, …

should be post=p as this is being done from the shell, not the controller (controller does use “post”, may cause confusion).

@Michael: I usually use this convention too but I wanted to be more explicit with the way that urls are created. It may not be apparent to someone new to TurboGears/CherryPy how exactly the post id is given to the method.

@Iain: No problem, I’m glad you found them useful.

@Matthew: Fixed. Thanks for pointing it out.

In the post kid template above, you need to add a closing html tag, which is to say

open-bracket forward-slash html close-bracket

I think a previous poster tried to say this, but the comment system mangled the text.

A few other things worth mentioning.

first:

make sure to add the closing “” tag in the post.kid template or you error.

second:

since TUrboGears/Cherrypy treat post?id=1 the same as /post/1

you can clean up the URL a bit by changing

Post title here

c = Comment(post=post, author_name=”Bob”…..

c = Comment(post=p, author_name=”Bob”….

Thanks, great series!

Just one question - does the short version of init work for you? It doesn’t for me. I think it’s because iterating over a dictionary returns just the keys, and you need setattr to set the attributes in self.

class Post(object):
def init(self, args, *kw):
for k,v in kw.iteritems():
if hasattr(self, k):
setattr(self, k, v)
