Did you try Django-nonrel? It supports a lot of Django features out of the box (even the admin). Also, it makes it a lot easier to move somewhere else. You might not be able to switch to SQL, but you can at least switch to MongoDB or some other NoSQL database.
- StavrosK 16y agoWhich version of Django is Django-nonrel? Did they only change the backend? I've browsed their site a bit but they don't answer the important questions...
- wkornewald 16y agoIt's based on the latest trunk code. The only changes are in the ORM layer and they're pretty small (maybe less than 100 lines). Which other questions do you want to see answered on the website?
- StavrosK 16y agoActually, this exact response tells me 95% of what I need to know. Another good thing to know would be how easy it is to use existing apps with it (provided they don't use JOINs, of course), but it looks like I need to give it a try, thanks!
- wkornewald 16y agoIf they don't use JOINs or aggregates your apps might just run unmodified. In some cases you'll need extra index definitions, either for djangoappengine or django-dbindexer, but you can keep those separate from your app, so you don't need to fork the code. BTW, I've updated the docs and added a short note that should answer your original questions.
- StavrosK 16y agoThank you very much, I think I'll be using it very soon!
