A framework based on Django for SPA webapps with a REST-like API

Django-Binder

Code Yellow backend framework for SPA webapps with REST-like API.

This framework is a work-in-progress. There is no complete documentation yet. We are using it for a couple of projects and fine-tuning it.

Running the tests

There are two ways to run the tests:

• Run directly ./setup.py test (requires you to have python3 and postgres installed)
• Run with docker docker-compose run binder ./setup.py test

MySQL support

MySQL is supported, but only with the goal to replace it with PostgreSQL. This means it has a few limitations:

• where filtering on with relations is not supported.
• Only integer primary keys are supported.
• When fetching large number of records using with or the ids are big, be sure to increase GROUP_CONCAT max string length by:

DATABASES = {
	'default': {
		'OPTIONS': {
            'init_command': 'SET SESSION group_concat_max_len = 1000000',
        },
	},
}
