Extensions to Django for use with MySQL/MariaDB
Project description
The dolphin-pony - proof that cute + cute = double cute.
Django-MySQL is a non-inventively named package that helps you use some MySQL/MariaDB-specific features in the world of Django.
What kind of features?
Includes:
QuerySet extensions - ‘smart’ iteration, approx_count for quick estimates of count(), quick pt-visual-explain of the underlying query
Model fields for storing lists and sets in comma-separated strings, with the ability to query them
ORM expressions for MySQL-specific functions
Handler API for quicker-than-SQL reads using the ‘NoSQL’ HANDLER commands
Status variable inspection and utility methods
Named locks for easy locking of e.g. external resources
To see them all, check out the exposition at http://django-mysql.readthedocs.org/en/latest/exposition.html .
Requirements
Tested with all combinations of:
Python: 2.7, 3.3, 3.4
Django: 1.7, 1.8
MySQL: 5.5, 5.6 / MariaDB: 5.5, 10.0, 10.1
mysqlclient: 1.3.5 (Python 3 compatible version of MySQL-python)
Any combination of these should be good, and also MySQL-python should work since it’s just an older version of mysqlclient.
History
0.1.10 (2015-04-30)
Added the MySQLCache backend for use with Django’s caching framework, a more efficient version of DatabaseCache
Fix a ZeroDivision error in WeightedAverageRate, which is used in smart iteration
0.1.9 (2015-04-20)
pt_visual_explain no longer executes the given query before fetching its EXPLAIN
New pt_fingerprint function that wraps the pt-fingerprint tool efficiently
For List fields, the new ListF class allows you to do atomic append or pop operations from either end of the list in a single query
For Set fields, the new SetF class allows you to do atomic add or remove operatiosn from the set in a single query
The @override_mysql_variables decorator has been introduced which makes testing code with different MySQL configurations easy
The is_mariadb property gets added onto Django’s MySQL connection class automatically
A race condition in determining the minimum and maximum primary key values for smart iteration was fixed.
0.1.8 (2015-03-31)
Add Set and List fields which can store comma-separated sets and lists of a base field with MySQL-specific lookups
Support MySQL’s GROUP_CONCAT as an aggregate!
Add a functions module with many MySQL-specific functions for the new Django 1.8 database functions feature
Allow access of the global and session status for the default connection from a lazy singleton, similar to Django’s connection object
Fix a different recursion error on count_tries_approx
0.1.7 (2015-03-25)
Renamed connection_name argument to using on Lock, GlobalStatus, and SessionStatus classes, for more consistency with Django.
Fix recursion error on QuerySetMixin when using count_tries_approx
0.1.6 (2015-03-21)
Added support for HANDLER statements as a QuerySet extension
Now tested on Django 1.8
