It lets you use MongoDB as your primary database for a Django project without rewriting your models or changing your Django code\u2014you configure it in settings.py and run migrations as normal. The package acts as a SQL-to-MongoDB transpiler, so Django's standard features like the admin interface, authentication, and sessions are meant to work out of the box.\n\nThe package depends on sqlparse for query parsing, pymongo for MongoDB communication, django itself, and pytz for timezone handling. It is maintained actively and has a low installation footprint as a pure-Python wheel. However, it carries an Alpha classification, indicating that the API and behavior may still evolve; users should expect this to be a work-in-progress integration rather than a production-hardened solution.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need to use MongoDB with Django and are comfortable with Alpha-stage software. The low install friction, active maintenance, and permissive license make it accessible. However, verify that your specific Django version and query patterns are supported, and test thoroughly in a non-production environment first\u2014the Alpha status means edge cases and compatibility gaps may exist."},"id":"djongo","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/djongo","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/djongo.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/djongo/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2024-11-12","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"djongo","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Djongo: The Django MongoDB connector"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":82114,"position":14183,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.3.7"}
