Hi all, I’m pondering whether it might be feasible to use v2 with Django. I think writing a custom backend for v2 wouldn’t be so bad but I’ve never written a custom Django backend before so I’m not sure exactly how much it’d be. Just putting this out there in case anyone else is interested—I might be more motivated to do this if it weren’t just me 😂
hey @lgessler, sounds interesting 🙂 have you tried it with the standard Django postgres support? I daresay we're likely missing some of the database metadata that Django may query for, but we're looking to incrementally add support for more of these kinds of tools in the coming weeks
you mean telling django there’s a “postgres” database at a certain URL which is actually a XTDB v2 instance? haven’t tried that, no--that’s a good idea for a first step. If I get the time to do that I’ll report back
