postgresql - how to sync django models with pre-existing database? -


i having hard time trying come reasonable design project. have existing postgres database gets updated other python scripts. web server built on django framework access postgres database update user models , display blog information logged in users. blog information being updated overnight other python scripts.

now question, if have syncdb blog model existing postgres database, cause problem? ex:

models.py class blog:    title=...    content=...    author=.... 

and postgres db called mydb has many tables, 1 of blog table , contains columns title, content , author. how make model in sync existing database? lets included new column in db date of entry.

if update model :

class blog:    title=...    content=...    author=....    date of entry=... 

will work.

what potential problems here , simpler solutions these?

p.s: have used south in past. situation here different. using db read-only django's point of view, , no data migration necessary of now.

if database read-only, don't have syncdb. use managed=false , db_table meta option on model specify table name corresponds to, , likewise field column names.

if haven't already, see the doc on legacy databases more info.
