Description
To provide a link
attribute to Feed subclasses, django.core.urlresolvers.reverse
can't be used to provide that value, since Feed instances are created during URLConf initialization, so there is nothing to reverse yet. To use resolve
to retrieve this value, a link(self)
method must be used, so reverse
is called after URLConf init. This circular dependency is likely to be hard to solve, but at least must be documented, since no errors than NoReverseMatch
are thrown.
