django-netezza

==============

*FYI. I no longer have access to Netezza, so I'm not working on this anymore.*

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

A Django_ Netezza DB backend that uses ODBC by employing

the pyodbc_ library.

.. _Django: http://djangoproject.com/

.. _pyodbc: http://pyodbc.sourceforge.net

Currently, this is in a very, very experimental state. For one thing, I've only

tested this with read-only operations, because that's all I need at the moment.

I have only tried very simple models and simple queries and have not tested

anything with foreign keys, full-text search, etc.

Dependencies

============

* Django 1.3

* pyodbc 2.1.8 or newer

* Netezza ODBC driver

Installation

============

 1. Install pyodbc.

 2. Add the directory where you have copied the project files to your Python

    path. So, for example, if you have the following directory structure::

        /home/user/src/django-netezza

            |

            +- netezza

                  |

                  +- pyodbc

    you should add ``/home/user/src/django-netezza`` to you Python module search

    path. One way to do this is setting the ``PYTHONPATH`` environment

    variable::

       $ export PYTHONPATH=/home/user/src/django-netezza

 3. Now you can point the ``ENGINE`` setting in the settings file used

    by your Django application or project to the ``'netezza.pyodbc'``

    module path::

        DATABASES = {

            'default': {

                'OPTIONS': {'dsn': 'NETEZZA'},

                'ENGINE': 'netezza.pyodbc',

            },

        }
