Re: using a models fields

[bishwendu kundu]

You can try saving the data as
latitude=models.DecimalField(max_digits=7,decimal_places=4).Same for the
longitude field.Here the max_digits takes into account both decimal and
non-decimal places.All the data can be given in string form as it will be
automatically converted to proper format as specified in your models for
storing in database. I guess you will be using some criteria to extract data
from the database...so,code can look like

list_of_XYZ()=XYZ.objects.filter(criteria)
for i in list_of_XYZ:
i.latitude,i.longitude ,i.zoomlevel

 for different databases the query could be formatted as
s=temp1.objects.using("mytemp").filter(refId=table1.objects.using("normal").get(pk=something).id)
I cannot understand the get argument but may be if you give it a try with a
suitable args."using" differentiates between databases.

For the first problem;
   may be if you get the cursor to the connection you want to keep open and
execute sql commands directly on it.This can be done as

from django.db import connections
cursor=connection["your_db_alias used in settings"].cursor()
