With multidb routers, how to move all django_* tables (models) to another db than default (moving also the django_migrations table) ?
By "move", I accept to simply put them in another db initially
EDIT : Ok, it seems that django_migration can't be moved and is present to every database...
but with that code, I'm getting a strange error :
web/settings.py:
DATABASES = {
'intern_db': {
'ENGINE': 'mysql.connector.django',
'NAME': 'django_cartons',
'USER': 'root',
'PASSWORD' : '',
},
'default': {
'ENGINE': 'mysql.connector.django',
'NAME': 'carton2',
'USER': 'root',
'PASSWORD' : '',
}
}
DATABASE_ROUTERS = ['web.AuthRouter.AuthRouter']
web/AuthRouter.py
class AuthRouter(object):
"""

auth application.

def db_for_read(self, model, **hints):

if obj1._meta.app_label == 'auth' or \
obj2._meta.app_label == 'auth':
return True
return None
def allow_migrate(self, db, model):

return False
if db == 'intern_db':
return (model._meta.app_label == 'auth')
elif model._meta.app_label == 'auth':
return False
return None

As said knbk, You have to pass the --database
option to choose the db.
Actually, it's a bad choice to put django tables in another db than default since other applications assume these tables are in default. moreover, there is still a "migration" table automatically created that is required by django.
