How to work around lack of support for foreign keys across databases in Django

Question

I know Django does not support foreign keys across multiple databases (originally Django 1.3 docs)

But I\'m looking for a workaround.

What doesn\'t work

Answer 1

You could make a view in the database that has the cross database query in it, then define the model for the view in a separate file to keep syncdb working.

Happy programming. :)
