Puoi aggiungere alcuni metodi ai modelli legacy per recuperare gli elementi correlati in modo un po' più efficiente:
class Listflower(models.Model):
especies_id = models.AutoField(primary_key=True)
family_id = models.IntegerField(blank=True, null=True)
especies = models.CharField(max_length=255, blank=True, null=True)
class Meta:
managed = False
db_table = 'listflower'
def get_family(self):
return FamilyModel.objects.get(family_id=self.family_id)
class Estate(models.Model):
estate_id = models.AutoField(primary_key=True)
estate_name = models.CharField(max_length=100, blank=True, null=True)
class Meta:
managed = False
db_table = 'estates'
def get_flowers(self):
flower_ids = Flower2Estate.objects.filter(estate_id=self.estate_id).values_list('especies_id', flat=True)
return Listflower.objects.filter(especies_id__in=flower_ids)
Ma se non è l'ultima volta che lavori con questi dati, probabilmente il modo migliore è definire modelli django regolari con fks e scrivere una volta uno script per convertire i dati legacy in una nuova struttura del modello. La sfida non dovrebbe durare più di un'ora.
