django-cdc 2.0.11

============================
django-cdc
============================

Tracking changes in django models and push it to logger/aws endpoints.


Quickstart Guide
===============================

Install it with pip from PyPi::

pip install django-cdc

before installing djangoCDC, make sure that you have already run the following command or
your environment the following packages:

pip install psycopg2
pip install django-bitfield
pip install boto3
pip install pyyaml
pip install django-extensions
pip install confluent-kafka

Add ``django_cdc`` to your ``INSTALLED_APPS``::
INSTALLED_APPS = (
'django.contrib.admin',
'django.contrib.auth',
'django.contrib.contenttypes',
'django.contrib.sessions',
'django.contrib.messages',
'django.contrib.staticfiles',
'django_extensions',
'django_cdc',
)

If you want to track full model changes, then you need to attach an ``DjangoCDC`` manager to the model.
For foreign key attributes, we need to pass kwargs foreign of dict type and partition_key is only used with kafka::

from django.db import models
from django_cdc.models.managers import DjangoCDC
from django_cdc.models.constants import ServiceType


class ProductCategory(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=150, primary_key = True)
description = models.TextField()
django_cdc = DjangoCDC(services=[ServiceType.SNS], partition_key=name,
service_custom_name= {ServiceType.ASYNC_KAFKA_PRODUCER : ''})

class Product(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length = 150)
description = models.TextField()
price = models.DecimalField(max_digits = 10, decimal_places = 2)
productcategory = models.ForeignKey(ProductCategory)
django_cdc = DjangoCDC(foreign_keys={'productcategory':['name','description']},services=[ServiceType.SNS,ServiceType.KINESIS],
service_custom_name= {ServiceType.SNS: '' , ServiceType.KINESIS: ''})

ServiceType is used for specifying on which you want to publish and service_custom_name is used
to specify own custom name for resource- KAFKA, SNS, KINESIS. Let us say,if you want to publish
data to kafka topic like ProductCategory in that case you need to pass service_custom_name as an
argument with the custom name as shown above. Also if "None" value is set for the
service_custom_name then it will publish to the topic derived e.g. <SERVICE_FUNCTION_PREFIX>-<tableName>.

Run the following commmand to deploy lambda function that pushes data to kinesis:
python manage.py setservice

By default warn, error, critical logging level are enabled.

To enable info logging:
python manage.py setservice --logging_level=info

To enable debugging:
python manage.py setservice --logging_level=debug

Following fields handled for json serialization:
BitHandler
datetime
time
ImageFieldFile
