Django Schema Graph
Django-schema-graph makes a colourful diagram out of your Django models. The diagram is interactive, and makes it easy to toggle models and apps on/off at will.
It looks like this:
Feature | Screenshot |
---|---|
Models | ![]() |
Apps | ![]() |
Both together | ![]() |
Graph editor | ![]() |
(Apologies that the images above don't work on PyPI. Check it out on GitHub.)
Installation
Install from PyPI:
pip install django-schema-graph
Add to INSTALLED_APPS
:
INSTALLED_APPS = [
...
'schema_graph',
...
]
Add to your URLs.
from schema_graph.views import Schema
urlpatterns += [
# On Django 2+:
path("schema/", Schema.as_view()),
# Or, on Django < 2:
url(r"^schema/$", Schema.as_view()),
]
Use
Browse to /schema/
(assuming that's where you put it in your URLs).
Note: DEBUG
mode is required, on the assumption that you don't want to leak
sensitive information about your website outside of local development.
Support
Tests run on sensible combinations of:
- Python (3.6-3.9)
- Django (1.11-3.1)
If you're stuck on old version of Python or Django, you may consider installing old versions. They will probably have fewer features, and there will be no support for them.
The last version to support Python 2.7 and 3.5 was 1.2.0
The last version to support Django 1.8 was 1.2.0
Alternatives
-
django-spaghetti-and-meatballs
is great. At the time of writing, it offers a lot more detailed information on the models in the diagram, but doesn't allow them to be turned on/off in the page.
