Postgres Connection Pooling for Django.
Project description
This is a fork of original [django-postgrespool](https://github.com/kennethreitz/django-postgrespool).
Usage
Using Django-PostgresPool is simple, just set django_postgrespool2 as your connection engine:
DATABASES = { 'default': { 'ENGINE': 'django_postgrespool2'
If you’re using the dj-database-url module:
import dj_database_url DATABASES = {'default': dj_database_url.config(engine='django_postgrespool')}
If you’re using south:
SOUTH_DATABASE_ADAPTERS = { 'default': 'south.db.postgresql_psycopg2' }
Everything should work as expected.
Installation
Installing Django-PostgresPool is simple, with pip:
$ pip install django-postgrespool2
Configuration
Optionally, you can provide additional options to pass to SQLAlchemy’s pool creation:
DATABASE_POOL_ARGS = { 'max_overflow': 10, 'pool_size': 5, 'recycle': 300 }
Here’s a basic explanation of two of these options:
pool_size – The minimum number of connections to maintain in the pool.
max_overflow – The maximum overflow size of the pool. This is not the maximum size of the pool.
The total number of “sleeping” connections the pool will allow is pool_size. The total simultaneous connections the pool will allow is pool_size + max_overflow.
As an example, databases in the Heroku Postgres starter tier have a maximum connection limit of 20. In that case your pool_size and max_overflow, when combined, should not exceed 20.
Check out the official SQLAlchemy Connection Pooling docs to learn more about the optoins that can be defined in DATABASE_POOL_ARGS.
Django 1.3 Support
django-postgrespool currently supports Django 1.4 and greater. See this ticket for 1.3 support.
