Dynamically adding new data model but not re-runserver.

[Bo Zhao]

Hi all,

My client has several requests on adding new shapefiles to the postgresql, then I need to create new data model and import the data. but my question is that should I re-runserver everytime I adding a new data model, or is there any alternatives?

best,

Bo

I assume by "create new data model" you mean generate a new Django
model and save it to a .py file? If that's true, why not just import
it right after you've saved it to the file?

Thanks for your prompt reply.

so that's what I think about. but I assumed that  adding a new .py is not that easy, I have to build new .py and run "syncdb". then the data model and shapefile be in the database. right?
