Get_list not working for child table

[mrPauwHaan]

It is not possible to use the get_list command to fetch child table records. In the Frappe API, the get_all function is normally used to ignore permissions for child tables. However, Frappe client does not have such a function.

@mrPauwHaan @rmehta Any solution for getting child records of the parent document ?

@mrPauwHaan @akshat-canofy
that is a limitation of frappe
in frappe-js-sdk i end up doin

    db.getDocList(parentDocType, {
        // @ts-ignore - TODO: fix types
        fields: fields.map((field) => `${childTableDocType.toLowerCase().replaceAll(" ", "_")}.${field}`) as string[],
        // @ts-ignore - TODO: fix types
        filters: [[childTableDocType, "parent", "=", parentId]],
    });
};

so i guess in python would be

client.get_list("Parent Doc", fields=['child_doc.child_doc_field_name'], filters=[['child_doc', 'parent', '=', parentId]])

this should return a list of the child values
