How to use this developer tool

  1. Paste the source structure.
  2. Select the conversion direction.
  3. Choose a database dialect where relevant.
  4. Run the converter and review exact, approximate, and unsupported items.

What this developer tool does

The converter maps supported Django field and code patterns to deterministic target templates.

Source parsing → supported-pattern mapping → approximation classification → target output

Custom fields, managers, decorators, descriptors, metaclasses, dynamic querysets, and runtime-generated URLs may require manual conversion.

Example

A CharField becomes VARCHAR, DecimalField becomes DECIMAL, and BooleanField becomes BOOLEAN in Model-to-SQL mode.

Tips for better output

  • Use literal model field declarations.
  • Review null, unique, default, and relationship constraints.
  • Choose the actual target database dialect.
  • Keep unsupported TODO markers until manually resolved.

FAQ

Does it support every Django field?

No. It supports common built-in fields and marks unsupported custom fields.

Are database constraints preserved?

Common null, unique, default, and primary-key signals are mapped when recognizable.

Can it reverse SQL perfectly?

No. Reverse conversion is inherently approximate without schema metadata and project conventions.

Does FBV to CBV preserve all behavior?

Only simple patterns can be converted reliably. Decorators and custom control flow require review.

Is conversion local?

Yes. All processing occurs in the browser.
