Fake django database backends to generate sql without a real database

Project description

https://travis-ci.org/David-Wobrock/django-fake-database-backends.svg?branch=master https://img.shields.io/pypi/v/django-fake-database-backends.svg

Motivations

This project intends to propose django database backends which can be used to generated SQL, without actually having the databases set up. The main use case is using the built-in django command manage.py sqlmigrate.

These backends are not intended to be used for any production, migration or storage. They will nicely fail when you try to actually establish an actual database connection.

The need for this library comes from the tests of django-migration-linter which needed to generate SQL from a backend that was not sqlite3, but without having to install a database client library.

Installation

pip install django-fake-database-backends

Usage

In your project settings file, presumably settings.py, use one of the available backends:

DATABASES = {
    'default': {
        'ENGINE': 'django_fake_database_backends.backends.mysql',
    }
}

Available backends

  • django_fake_database_backends.backends.mysql

  • django_fake_database_backends.backends.sqlite3

  • django_fake_database_backends.backends.postgresql

More will come in the future.

Tests

The test suite uses tox and can be invoked using.
