Noob question about accesing meta data

[ionesculiviucristian]

Hi. I have the following class:

class Migration(BaseModel):
    name = CharField(null=True, unique=True)

    class Meta:
        table_name = "migrations"

How can I access the table name without using it like this:

Migration._meta.table.__name__

Need something more "public" kinda way.

you can modify the source code just like me

Thanks for the response but I have no idea what you are referring to. What source code is that? Worst case I'm gonna add the same table_name on the parent class which is definitely not the way to do it.

The table name is accessible via:

ModelClass._meta.table_name

The full list of available meta options is here: http://docs.peewee-orm.com/en/latest/peewee/models.html#model-options-and-table-metadata

The ._meta is a holdover from Django and is kinda a namespace for metadata of the model class itself. It can be considered part of the public interface.

Note: I've removed a couple comments that were unhelpful or missed the point.
