Django. One app with many models vs. many apps with single model

Question

I\'m currently developing my own weblog in Django. But I\'ve already stucked right in the beginning. So, here is my tree hierarchy:

/pyroot/nemo         


        

Answer 1

My subjective view is that apps are meant to be reusable. If they are truly reusable you could pip install on your next project. So basically reusable apps should be separate from your codebase and ideally on pypi.

I just use one app per project and use packages to break up modules.

eg.

Before

journal/
  models.py

After

journal/
   models/  # All models share the same database namespace. In this case 'journal_'
      __init__.py
      auth.py
      page.py
