I get the error "name 'challenges' is not defined". I'm not sure what I've done wrong. Can someone point it out for me? Thanks!
from peewee import *
db = SqliteDatabase("challenges.db")
class Challenge(Model):
name = CharField(max_length=100)
language = CharField(max_length=100)
steps = IntegerField(default=1)
class Meta:
database = db
def initialize():
challenges.connect()
challenges.create_tables("Challenge", safe = True)

so use that in the initialize function instead of challenges
. Also the argument to create_tables
is a list of models and not text.
def initialize():
db.connect()
db.create_tables([Challenge], safe = True)
