Open markhepburn opened 10 years ago

Hi,

This is a notification as much as anything. Thanks very much for your work on this driver.

I've been developing GeoDjango support at condense/django-pyodbc-gis

Please let me know if you have any feedback, or if you'd like to work together on it.

@markhepburn Awesome! It would be very nice if we can make use of GeoDjango on SQL Server. I'll be glad to help you. Let me know if there's something I can do for you.

@michiya Great, thanks very much! Do you know if there's a standard test suite I could use? So far my testing is all by-hand and not very formal.

michiya commented 10 years ago

@markhepburn As you know, Django tarball contains the test cases for the spatial databases in django.contrib.gis.tests directory. I think they would be of help to you, though you might have to modify them a bit to make them work with SQL Server.

@michiya That's what I was looking for, thanks. I'll look at using those, then hopefully get a milestone release out!

(curiously, to get the admin interface to work we have to pretend to by mysql :))
