Correct, signals won't help spot changes in the database that do not pass through Django. > A way which I think this can work is having field within the db that > gets polled every say 5 minutes OR using database triggers as a > callback (this one is the one I want to implement but is it even > possible?) I've done something similar to this in the past so I can integrate Plone (which pushes straight to the db) with Django. I have a database trigger that writes to an audit log table. That table has a matching Django model. So then I have a cron job that runs every couple of minutes, looking for any changes on the table and then does some work (in this case updating navigation and search). This lets me stay in the Django ORM as much as possible, with the addition of just one trigger. -- Andy McKay, @clearwind Training: http://clearwind.ca/training/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
