How popular is the app? Does it work nicely now? Depending on your answers to those, do you really need to rewrite?

- noelchurchill 18y agoRight. That is a different question all together. I'm really more curious about Djangos ability to tap into an existing database. I've heard that RoR has a very difficult time doing this. But to answer your question, there probably wouldn't be any need to rewrite my application. PHP is very adaptable and scalable and will probably continue to suit my needs.
- davidu 18y agoStick with PHP, Noel. :-)
- noelchurchill 18y agoBut how do I resist the hype around all these frameworks?! haha jk.
- mattdennewitz 18y agocheck out manage.py's inspectdb command. it will make its best attempt (its been great w/ mysql) to introspect your schema and dump as a set of django models.
