In this public preview release, the Official Django MongoDB Backend offers developers the following capabilities:
The ability to use Django models with confidence. Developers can use Django models to represent MongoDB documents, with support for Django forms, validations, and authentication.
Django admin support. The package allows users to fire up the Django admin page as they normally would, with full support for migrations and database schema history.
Native connecting from settings.py. Just as with any other database provider, developers can customize the database engine in settings.py to get MongoDB up and running.
MongoDB-specific querying optimizations. Field lookups have been replaced with aggregation calls (aggregation stages and aggregate operators), JOIN operations are represented through $lookup, and it’s possible to build indexes right from Python.
Limited advanced functionality. While still in development, the package already has support for time series, projections, and XOR operations.
Aggregation pipeline support. Raw querying allows aggregation pipeline operators. Since aggregation is a superset of what traditional MongoDB Query API methods provide, it gives developers more functionality.
