Hi everyone , I am new with Django and I try to connect with external
database to read the data and show in my view.
Hi create a new entry in setting.py file with the new database info that I
want connect. Something like this.
'externDB': {
'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.mysql',
'NAME': '*****',
'USER': '*****',
'PASSWORD': '*****',
'HOST': '*****',
'PORT': '',
}
In the View file inside my app I create this to read the info from the
database
def index(request):
all_rows = NewModel.objects.using('externDB').all()
return render_to_response('info/index.html', {'rows': all_rows})
But now I obtain this error
global name 'NewModel' is not defined
I undestand the error, I have to include the model, something like that "from
info.models import NewModel"
but my model in empty, I don't want to save any data from the model, to my
local database, I only want to read then and show in my view.
Any idea , I am missing something with the models, any example that I can read
to understand better.
Thanks in advance!
