Support currently exists for Simple, Whoosh, Elasticsearch, Solr, and Xapian backends.
Installation is simple:
$ pip install dj-haystack-url
Configure your Haystack connections in settings.py from
HAYSTACK_CONNECTIONS (default is optional):

Parse an arbitrary Haystack connection URL:
HAYSTACK_CONNECTIONS = {'default': dj_haystack_url.parse('simple')}
