Django Migration Operation that can be used to transfer a field's default value to the database scheme.
pip install django-add-default-value
You can then use AddDefaultValue
in your migration file to transfer the default values to your database. Afterwards, it's just the usual ./manage.py migrate
.
Add this manually to a autogenerated Migration, that adds a new field
AddDefaultValue( model_name='my_model', name='my_field', value='my_default' )
Given the following migration:
BEFORE
from django.db import migrations, models class Migration(migrations.Migration): dependencies = [ ... ] operations = [ migrations.AddField( field=models.CharField(default='my_default', max_length=255), model_name='my_model', name='my_field', ), ]
Modify the migration to add a default value:
AFTER
from django.db import migrations, models from django_add_default_value import AddDefaultValue class Migration(migrations.Migration): dependencies = [ ... ] operations = [ migrations.AddField( field=models.CharField(default='my_default', max_length=255), model_name='my_model', name='my_field', ), AddDefaultValue( model_name='my_model', name='my_field', value='my_default' ) ]
If you check python manage.py sqlmigrate [app name] [migration]
, you will see that the default value now gets set.
First of all, thank you very much for contributing to this project. Please base your work on the master
branch and target master
in your pull request.
To succesfully use the dbshell
management command (very useful for debugging), the client binaries for the respective database engines are needed.
Then install pipenv. Edit the Pipfile
to select your Django version and the accompanying MS-SQL driver. Make sure you don't commit this change in any pull request - we always set it to the oldest supported version.
Once you've updated the Pipfile, run pipenv install --python 3 --dev
. You should now have a working development environment as a virtualenv. To access it, run pipenv shell
or prefix commands with pipenv run
. For more information see the pipenv documentation.
Copy the relevant sample settings file in test_project
to the file without .sample
in it. Adjust the values to match your environment (or match your environment to the values).
You should now be able to run the tests using tox
. Select your environment when needed, using the -e
command line flag. See Tox's excellent documentation.
