Welcome to django-migration-zero - the holistic implementation of "migration zero" pattern for Django covering local changes and CI/CD pipeline adjustments.
This package implements the "migration zero" pattern to clean up your local migrations and provides convenient management commands to recreate your migration files and updating your migration history on your environments (like test or production systems).
Working with any proper ORM will result in database changes which are reflected in migration files to update your different environment's database structure. These files are versioned in your repository and if you follow any of the most popular deployment approaches, they won't be needed when they are deployed on production. This means, they clutter your repo, might lead to merge conflicts in the future and will slow down your test setup.
Django's default way of handling this is called "squashing". This approach is covered broadly in the official documentation. The main drawback here is, that you have to take care of circular dependencies between models. Depending on your project's size, this can take a fair amount of time.
The main benefit of squashing migrations is, that the history stays intact, therefore it can be used for example in package which can be installed by anybody and you don't have control over their database.
If you are working on a "regular" application, you have full control over your data(bases) and once everything has been applied on the "last" system, typically production, the migrations are obsolete. To avoid spending much time on fixing squashed migrations you won't need, you can use the "migration zero" pattern. In a nutshell, this means:
Install the package via pip:
pip install django-migration-zero
or via pipenv:
pipenv install django-migration-zero
Add module to INSTALLED_APPS
within the main django settings.py
:
INSTALLED_APPS = (
...
'django-migration-zero',
)
Apply migrations by running:
python ./manage.py migrate
Add this block to your loggers in your main Django settings.py
to show logs in your console.
LOGGING = { "loggers": { "django_migration_zero": { "handlers": ["console"], "level": "INFO", "propagate": True, }, }, }Publish to ReadTheDocs.io
Update documentation about new/changed functionality
Update the Changelog
Increment version in main __init__.py

This project uses the flit package to publish to PyPI. Thus, publishing should be as easy as running:
To publish to TestPyPI use the following to ensure that you have set up your .pypirc as shown here and use the following command:
flit publish --repository testpypi
Please note that this package supports the ambient-package-update. So you don't have to worry about the maintenance of this package. This updater is rendering all important configuration and setup files. It works similar to well-known updaters like pyupgrade
or django-upgrade
.
To run an update, refer to the documentation page of the "ambient-package-update".
