I have made things!
BaseDatabaseWrapper
itself doesn't include this attribute, but all subclasses are required to add it for the ORM to work. For example in the dummy backend and postgresql.I used
MutableMapping
for a broader type, because at least the Oracle backend uses a funky descriptor.Using
connection.operators
is useful when implementing some ORM functions like custom lookups. The case I came across was in django-countries: https://github.com/smileychris/django-countries/blob/5bb48218ef77662b8287d979d652bc716082fe67/django_countries/fields.py#L470-L471Related issues
