Use Django Models in any Python Web Framework

Project description

# DJ Models

Use the Django ORM in any Python web framework.

## Install

pip3 install djmodels


## Getting Started

Create an app directory for your models and settings (DB connection details).

mkdir app
touch app/{__init__.py,models.py,settings.py}


Add your database settings to the settings module. See Django's docs on this for more info.

```python
SECRET_KEY = '<ACTUAL SECRET KEY>'
DATABASES = {
'default': {
'ENGINE': 'djmodels.db.backends.postgresql',
'NAME': 'postgres',
'USER': 'postgres',
'PASSWORD': 'mysecretpassword',
'HOST': '0.0.0.0',
'PORT': '5432',
}
}

INSTALLED_APPS = ['app']

```


Add a model to `app/models.py`

```python
from djmodels.db import models

class Person(models.Model):
name = models.CharField()
age = models.PositiveIntegerField()

```
Export your settings module

export DJMODELS_SETTINGS_MODULE=app.settings


Create migrations

$ djmodels-admin makemigrations app
# Migrations for 'app':
# - Create model Person


Run Migrate

$ djmodels-admin migrate app
# Operations to perform:
# Apply all migrations: app
# Running migrations:
# Applying app.0001_initial... OK


Import the model into any webframework and make queries. For example, Flask.

```python

from flask import Flask
from app.models import Person
app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route("/person/")
def get_random_person():
person = Person.objects.order_by('?').first()
return '{}'.format(person.name)

```
