Database API reference

Once you've created your `data models`_, you'll need to lookup data from the

database. This document explains the database abstraction API derived from the
|

models, and how to create, retrieve, and update objects.

Changing objects

Once you've retrieved an object from the database using any of the above

options, changing it is extremely easy. Make changes directly to the

objects fields, then call the object's ``save()`` method::

We think it's very purty, but if you don't agree you can modify the admin site's

presentation by editing the CSS stylesheet and/or associated image files. The

site is built using semantic HTML, so any changes you'd like to make should be

possible by editing the CSS stylesheet. We've got a `guide to the CSS used

Django grew from a very practical need: in our fast-paced newsroom, we often
|
||||
have only a matter of hours to take a complicated web application from
|
||||
concept to public launch. Django was designed to not only allow us to
|
||||
build web applications quickly, but to allow us to build them right.
|
||||
|
||||
Django would not be possible without a whole host of open-source projects --
|
||||
Apache, Python, and PostgresSQL to name a few -- and we're thrilled to be
|
||||
able to give something back to the open source community.

Does Django scale?
|

------------------

Yes. Compared to development time, hardware is cheap, and so Django is

designed to take advantage of as much hardware as you can throw at it.

Django ships with clean separation of the database layer from the

application layer and a simple yet powerful `cache framework`_.

Relationships
|
||||
=============
|
||||
|
||||
The ``rel`` option for a field marks that field as being a relationship to
|
||||
another object. For the most common cases, using ``ForeignKey`` or
|
||||
``ManyToManyField`` is best; these "shortcuts" encapsulate best practices
|
||||
in database design (i.e. using integer foreign keys into another table's
|
||||
primary key). If you do need to explicitly create a relation, these relation
|
||||
objects should be used as the value of the ``rel`` attribute. Also, all
|
||||
the options for ``ManyToOne`` are allowed as options for ``ForeignKey``,
|
||||
and the same goes for ``ManyToMany`` and ``ManyToManyField``.
|
||||
|
||||
``ManyToOne``
|
||||
-------------
|
||||
|
||||
Signifies a many-to-one relation: if a ``Pizza`` can have many ``Topping``s,
|
||||
then the ``Topping`` object should have a ``ManyToOne`` relation to ``Pizza``.
|
||||
|
||||
The three positional arguments to ``ManyToMany`` are:
|
||||
|
||||
* The class to relate to (i.e. ``Pizza`` or ``core.Site``).
|
||||
|
||||
* The name of the relation (i.e. ``pizza``, or ``site``); this is used in
|
||||
the generated functions for managing that relationship (i.e.
|
||||
``get_pizza`` and ``get_site``).
|
||||
|
||||
* The name of the field the relationship "points" to. In most cases this
|
||||
will be "id", but if the other object's PK isn't named "id", this
|
||||
must match the PK field name.

|

``IPAddressField``
|

An IP address, in string format (i.e. "24.124.1.30").

Signifies a one-to-one relationship. This is most useful on the primary key

of an object when that object "extends" another object in some way.

XXX document once Adrian reworks this XXX

For example, if you are building a database of "places", you would build pretty
|
||||
standard stuff like address, phone number, etc. in the database. If you then
|
||||
wanted to build a database of restaurants on top of the places, instead of
|
||||
repeating yourself and replicating those fields in the restaurants object, you
|
||||
could make ``Restaurant`` have a ``OneToOne`` relation to ``Place`` (since
|
||||
a restaurant "is-a" place).
|
||||
``NullBooleanField``
|
||||
Like a ``BooleanField``, but allows ``NULL`` as one of the options. Use this
|
||||
instead of a ``BooleanField`` with ``null=True`` .
|
||||
|
||||
This has a few repercussions in the admin interface:
|
||||
``PhoneNumberField``
|
||||
Validates that the value is a valid phone number.
|
||||
|
||||
* No selection interface is displayed on ``Restaurant`` pages; there will
|
||||
be one (and only one) ``Restaurant`` for each place.
|
||||
``PositiveIntegerField``
|
||||
Like an ``IntegerField``, but must be positive.
|
||||
|
||||
* On the ``Restaurant`` change list, every single ``Place`` -- weather it
|
||||
has an associated ``Restaurant`` or not -- will be displayed. Adding
|
||||
a ``Restaurant`` to a ``Place`` just means filling out the required
|
||||
``Restaurant`` fields.
