MVC, Database, & Class-Based Views #11

Closed sshami closed 10 years ago

Note: This is written assuming that the developers have basic knowledge of the Django framework.

In our meeting last Thursday I mentioned the use of Class-Based Views. If the developers have been using regular function Views on the prototype, then I wouldn't worry about implementing Class-Based Views. After some more thought and consideration, using Class-Based Views would not be significantly beneficial in the integration phase of the project unless we provide our complete source code including current base classes.

I do however strongly suggest that developers stay within the Django MVC (MTV) architecture as much as possible, as this will make integration easier along with commenting and clean code.

Finally, I just have a quick question that either of the developers can answer. We currently use a postSQL database with Django. My question is what database (mySQL, postSQL, SQLite, Oracle, etc.) is going to be used in this project?

Let me know if you have any questions for me.

Thanks!

Any good documents or articles for MVC/Class-based views?

And yes there might be a possibility that we are using Gql in this project.
