One-to-One

A One-to-One relationship is used when one object of a model corresponds to exactly one object of another model. For example, a table of employees and another table of employee ID badges, where each employee has exactly one unique ID badge. To specify a One-to-One relation, use models.OneToOneField.

OneToOneField accepts all of the extra arguments accepted by ForeignKey.

There is just an example of usage One-to-One relations. We will not use it in our project.

You can learn more about this relation in the official documentation.
