{{{
my_instance =
MyModel.objects.using('NonDefaultDBConn').filter(some_field='XXXX')
my_instance.local_field #This works
my_instance.fk_field #This doesn't work
}}}
It fails when trying to access my_instance.fk_field as it defaults to
using the 'default' connection and not 'NonDefaultDBConn'
I would assume that when fetching a model using 'NonDefaultDBConn' that
all subsequent lookups should go through 'NonDefaultDBConn' and not
'default'
If this is not the case, and this is expected behaviour how can I force fk
lookups to go through 'NonDefaultDBConn'
I know I can run
{{{
MyLinkedModel.objects.filter(x_instance=my_instance)
}}}
But this is massively in-efficient both from a performance and code
maintainability point of view.
I am using Django 2.0 with the Oracle backend.

The behavior you describe shouldn't happen.
[https://github.com/django/django/blob/da92ec79621fc0bba671d8afa52b7f6884962fe5/tests/multiple_database/tests.py#L444-L448
There are tests] in Django's test suite that demonstrates. I also tried
this:
{{{
dive = Book.objects.using('other').filter(title="Dive into Python")[0]
self.assertEqual(dive.editor.name, "Chris Mills")
}}}
Please provide a test case or a sample project that reproduces the problem
you're seeing.

Apologies I should have been clearer with the problem, it's similar to
what is being described here:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/40457351/why-is-the-database-used-by-
django-subqueries-not-sticky
My application has a single 'MetaSchema' and 'n' identical
ApplicationSchemas.
The default connection points to the meta-schema, and the default router
routes everything via 'defaut'
AppModel1 is not present in the default 'MetaSchema', but is present in
all of the ApplicationSchemas
Running this fails on the second line:
{{{
obj = AppModel1.objects.using('ApplicationSchema1').first()
obj.objects.fk_field # <--- This fails
}}}
However, looking at the router configuration for the tests, I think it may
be a misconfiguration issue on my part. It looks like I need to setup the
router as follows:
{{{
class TestRouter:
def db_for_read(self, model, instance=None, **hints):
if instance:
return instance._state.db or 'default'
return 'default'
.....
}}}
Is this something worth mentioning / or highlighting in the Documentation?

Comment (by Tim Graham):
The test router isn't used for the test that I linked to. I also tried
this and it works fine in the test:
{{{
dive = Book.objects.using('other').first()
self.assertEqual(dive.editor.name, "Chris Mills")
}}}
Are you using a database router in your project?

Comment (by Vackar Afzal):
I am indeed, and that's probably what's causing the odd behaviour:
{{{
class MyRouter(object):
def db_for_read(self, model, **hints):
return 'default'
def db_for_write(self, model, **hints):
return 'default'
def allow_relation(self, obj1, obj2, **hints):
return True
def allow_migrate(self, db, app_label, model_name=None, **hints):
return db == 'default'
}}}

Right, so you're overriding

the default behavior] of using the database from which the object was
fetched.
