Re: Create models using raw SQL queries

Thank you for your response. I am aware that django has for purpose to hide the SQL. the reason why I wanted to use django is that I had used it before and I didn't want to have to learn a new framework if possible.

hi Cameron, as Eric said, by doing this you might not fully take advantage of the features of django. But if you still want to proceed maybe you can use the managed option for models. https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.1/ref/models/options/#managed.

with this approach, you'll create the database tables manually first OUTSIDE of django, then connect django to it afterwards. I haven't tried it before but this might be what you need.

also if your teacher requires to perform raw sql queries rather than use the ORM, there is an option to use raw sql queries. https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.1/topics/db/sql/#executing-custom-sql-directly

Hi,

Not sure Django is the right choice in your case since one of its main purposes is to hide the SQL stuff by putting the ORM in front. 

You'd better use Flask, Tornado or any other Web framework which does not come with any special feature WRT data access.

Best

Subject: Create models using raw SQL queries

 

hello,

for a project for a database class, we wanted to create a web app using django. However, our teacher wants us to use raw SQL queries for everything involving the database. As such I was wondering if it was possible to create mdoels using raw SQL queries.

thank you in advance
