Re: Django App - Accessing Remote MySQL Database

Thanks! I've just started really getting into Django, I had no idea there was a way to connect multiple databases and still be able to use django's ORM to control them.

You could use django's inbuild ORM:

And just copy the database.

Hello, I'm trying to make an app that can periodically access a remote mysql database.

This app will query the remote database and copy some data to the local postgresql database.

So far I know that celery can be used to schedule periodic tasks, but I'm not sure what to do about querying the remote mysql database server.

Should I just use python's MySQLdb module, does anyone know any other python module that I can use to query mysql db?

Would this even be a good way to access remote database server from a django app? I'll have to be running a function that is within tasks.py periodically (via celery-django), would there be any better way to access remote mysql server from a django app in this case?
