Re: moving from Postgres to MySQL

hm seriously... why not use Django 1.2 and multidb? It is very easy not? conf two dbs, default is your postgres db, I'll call db2 your mysql db and you assert that you did a syncdb in both... so for each model you do: for item in Model.objects.all(): item.save(using='db2',force_insert=True)

inheriting User class

Hello everyone, I'm not very aware about what's the direction Django is taking about the User model and making it swappable. Meanwhile I would like to ask if inheriting the User class is advisable or not. As I have read many places obscure bugs can happen and my code will be in production. I'm

Tried it out. Interestingly, natural keys are currently used only for foreign key references, the dump still contains primary keys. Looks like there's a patch for leaving out PK's when natural keys are used: http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/13252 That would get me 100% of the way there. - PW

Can't uninstall debug toolbar?

For some reason, even though I've removed it from my INSTALLED_APPS and MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES, and touched my wsgi file, the debug toolbar just won't go away. I'm sure I'm doing something remarkably stupid, but at this point can't fathom what that might be. Any ideas? Thanks! -- You received

Thanks Shawn! That was quick! Meanwhile I just discovered http://farmdev.com/projects/fixture which I have just confirmed works fine for hand-written fixtures with my app, although using python classes as fixtures feels a little odd. Nice that it's cross-platform though, it supports sqlalchemy

Fixtures with deferred / auto-generated primary keys?

It would sometimes be useful to be able to write fixtures that essentially say "I don't care what the PK of this record is, as long as I have a way for other records in this fixture to refer to it." Use case: I'd like a way to pass around useful data sets that people can load into deployments of

*I've Googled, but have not found any really organized and layman- friendly overview, which is why I came here* I know how to get python/django working on my computer (PC or Mac) and have developed simple test apps using django's built-in dev server and a mysql back-end. So I can get things to

Not spectacular, but mysqldump has flags that can increase the chances of portability, and one would hope pg_dumpall does too. I figured something like that might be worth a try before you write a custom migration script. On Oct 22, 2:58 am, Chris Withers wrote: > On

Cross Domain POST Request

Hi there, I am quite new to Django and encounters a problem which takes me a lot of time to figure out. As I known, Django provides some functionality to prevent cross domain AJAX requests. However, using jQuery you can specify a callback (JSONP) and could talk and get data back from the server.
