<div class="textblock"><p><a class="el" href="classQDjango.html" title="The QDjango class provides a set of static functions.">QDjango</a> relies on the <a href="http://doc.qt.nokia.com/latest/qtsql.html">QtSql module</a> for database access, which supports a wide array of database drivers.</p>
<h2><a class="anchor" id="setup"></a>
Setting the database</h2>
<p>The first step is to open the database using <a href="http://doc.qt.nokia.com/latest/qsqldatabase.html#addDatabase">QSqlDatabase::addDatabase()</a>, for instance for an in-memory SQLite database:</p>
<div class="fragment"><pre class="fragment">QSqlDatabase db = QSqlDatabase::addDatabase(<span class="stringliteral">&quot;QSQLITE&quot;</span>);
db.setDatabaseName(<span class="stringliteral">&quot;:memory:&quot;</span>);
db.open();
</pre></div><p>You should now tell <a class="el" href="classQDjango.html" title="The QDjango class provides a set of static functions.">QDjango</a> to use the database you just opened:</p>
<div class="fragment"><pre class="fragment"><a class="code" href="classQDjango.html#a9a6962db6d787d8bcadc525a01fa6a2d" title="Sets the database used by QDjango.">QDjango::setDatabase</a>(db);
</pre></div><h2><a class="anchor" id="creating"></a>
Creating or dropping database tables</h2>
<p>Once you have set the database and declared all your models (see <a class="el" href="models.html">Database models</a>), you can ask <a class="el" href="classQDjango.html" title="The QDjango class provides a set of static functions.">QDjango</a> to create the database tables for all models:</p>
<div class="fragment"><pre class="fragment"><a class="code" href="classQDjango.html#a7b2c53fdd96b3d6db199e411bb76f0f4" title="Creates the database tables for all registered models.">QDjango::createTables</a>();
</pre></div><p>Conversely, you can ask <a class="el" href="classQDjango.html" title="The QDjango class provides a set of static functions.">QDjango</a> to drop the database tables for all models:</p>
<div class="fragment"><pre class="fragment"><a class="code" href="classQDjango.html#a048353657fcc85d02d136f0342da42c5" title="Drops the database tables for all registered models.">QDjango::dropTables</a>();
</pre></div><h2><a class="anchor" id="threading"></a>
Threading support</h2>
<p>Internally, <a class="el" href="classQDjango.html" title="The QDjango class provides a set of static functions.">QDjango</a> calls the <a class="el" href="classQDjango.html#a944127defa81b71150ae052fe596720f" title="Returns the database used by QDjango.">QDjango::database()</a> method whenever it needs a handle to the database. This method will clone the database connection as needed if it is invoked from a different thread. </p>
