Python Build a Social Network with Flask Broadcasting Lunch Order Model

I don't know what I'm doing wrong

I just have no idea

models.py
import datetime

from flask.ext.bcrypt import generate_password_hash
from flask.ext.login import UserMixin
from peewee import *

DATABASE = SqliteDatabase(':memory:')

class LunchOrder(Model):
  order = TextField()
  date = DateField()
  user = ForeignKeyField(
    rel_model=User,
    related_name='orders'
  )


class User(UserMixin, Model):
    email = CharField(unique=True)
    password = CharField(max_length=100)
    join_date = DateTimeField(default=datetime.datetime.now)
    bio = CharField(default='')

    class Meta:
        database = DATABASE

    @classmethod
    def new(cls, email, password):
        cls.create(
            email=email,
            password=generate_password_hash(password)
        )


def initialize():
    DATABASE.connect()
    DATABASE.create_tables([User], safe=True)
    DATABASE.close()

Hi Miguel

Put the LunchOrder model below the User model and it will pass.

Yeah, when the LunchOrder is created, it can't find the User because that part hasn't been created in Python's memory yet. Darn procedural reading of files!

Thank you :)
