Table Mixins ============ It's possible to create a mixin for a table that overrides something, however unless it itself is a subclass of `.Table` class variable instances of `.Column` will **not** be added to the class which is using the mixin. Example:: >>> class UselessMixin: ... extra = tables.Column() ... >>> class TestTable(UselessMixin, tables.Table): ... name = tables.Column() ... >>> TestTable.base_columns.keys() ["name"] To have a mixin contribute a column, it needs to be a subclass of `~django_tables2.tables.Table`. With this in mind the previous example *should* have been written as follows:: >>> class UsefulMixin(tables.Table): ... extra = tables.Column() ... >>> class TestTable(UsefulMixin, tables.Table): ... name = tables.Column() ... >>> TestTable.base_columns.keys() ["extra", "name"]
