ViewsTwo projects use the same Postgres database, and the project on Django
I have two projects that use the same Postgresql database. One of these projects is written with Golange and the other with Django. I have a task in the Django project, to take the data from the table that is created in another project. More precisely I have to take the data from the Clients table, which is not created in Django. There is no information about Clients table on the Django project.
Below is how I take the date from the Cook table, which is created in the Django project.
How can I take the date from the Clients table in the same way as above?
Below are both project repositories, and some screenshots from the database.

Thanks in advance.

You have a couple of options:
- Use Django's raw SQL queries to just
SELECTdata from that table - Use
inspectdbto have Django generate a model for theclientstable. The model will haveMeta.managedset to False, so Django won't touch it (e.g. do migrations). You can then use regular Django ORM operations for it. - Manually write the model, setting
db_table = "clients"andmanaged = Falseon the Meta class. You can then use regular Django ORM operations for it.
The model Django (or you) might generate could look something like
class Client(models.Model):
id = models.IntegerField(primary_key=True)
first_name = models.CharField(max_length=50)
last_name = models.CharField(max_length=50)
# ... etc ...
class Meta:
managed = False
db_table = 'clients'

Create Django models based on the database structure by introspecting an it with inspectdb command:
$ python manage.py inspectdb > models.py
Then you can query the database with Django API.
Have a look at https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.2/howto/legacy-databases/#auto-generate-the-models
