Djangotoolbox provides a common API for running Django on
non-relational/NoSQL databases (currently via Django-nonrel_).
In djangotoolbox.db
you can find base classes for writing
non-relational DB backends. Read
Writing a non-relational Django backend
_
for more information.
In djangotoolbox.fields
you can find several common field
types for non-relational DB backends (ListField
, SetField
,
DictField
, RawField
, BlobField
).
The djangotoolbox.admin
module provides admin overrides for
making django.contrib.auth
work correctly in the admin UI.
Simply add 'djangotoolbox'
to INSTALLED_APPS
after
django.contrib.admin
. This will disable features that
require JOINs. If you still need permission handling you should
use the nonrel permission backend
_.
