So you want to use DJANGO AND MONGODB @flaper87
THAT’S COOL, but you n d to know A COUPLE
OF THINGS DJANGO AND MONGODB
LIKE: WHAT ARE THE OPTIONS?
An object-document mapper to connect Python and MongoDB ( http://mongoengine.org
)
Another ODM that takes mongodb into the web Mongokit (
http://namlook.github.com/mongokit/ )
OR, OF COURSE
DJANGO MONGODB ENGINE (A MongoDB backend for Django)
DJANGO-NONREL A good and up to date Django fork that
brings non-rel support
django.contrib.* Sadly, some of your may be broken, but not
the admin
erm... OKAY WHAT’S SO COOL ABOUT THIS THEN?
No anges n ded. WHAT’S SO COOL ABOUT THIS THEN?
No anges n ded. NOBODY’S GONNA TOUCH YOUR PRECIOUS BUILTINS.
ABOUT THIS THEN?
NOBODY’S GONNA TOUCH YOUR PRECIOUS BUILTINS. REDUCED IMPEDANCE MISSMATCH
WHAT ELSE? at’s c l
NEW FIELDS
AGGREGATIONS
GRIDFS
CACHING
MAP / REDUCE >>> for pair in Article.objects.map_reduce(_map, _reduce, 'wordcount'):
... print pair.key, pair.value
NEW INDEXES class Club(models.Model): location = ListField() rating = models.FloatField()
... class MongoMeta: indexes = [ [('rating', -1)], {'fields': [('location', '2d')], 'min': -42, 'max': 42}, ]
TONS OF DOCS Plus: (which never hurts)
Su estions
RAW QUERIES MyModel.objects.raw_query(field=“value”)
EMBEDD IF POSSIBLE class Comment(models.Model): created_on = models.DateTimeField() author =
EmbeddedModelField('Author') text = models.TextField()
RE-THINK YOUR MODELS class Post(models.Model): title = models.CharField() text =
models.TextField() tags = ListField() # Note: Use defer comments = ListField(EmbeddedModelField('Comment'))
DO NOT USE IT EVERYWHERE MONGODB_MANAGED_APPS = ['myapp'] MONGODB_MANAGED_MODELS =
['myapp.MongoDBModel']
SERVE STATIC FILES GridFSStorage + nginx-GridFS
AGGREGATIONS? MAP/REDUCE class Min(MongoAggregate): initial_value = float('inf') reduce_template = '{alias}
= ({lookup}<{alias})?{lookup}:{alias}' class Max(MongoAggregate): initial_value = float('-inf') reduce_template = '{alias} = ({lookup}>{alias})?{lookup}:{alias}'
DATES WORK But, MongoDB does not support month/day queries
DO NOT TRY TO MIGRATE It Wont Work!
CONTRIBUTE The Compiler’s a mess
