GitHub - ambient-innovation/django-migration-zero: Django package to implement "migration zero" pattern

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:

LOGGING = {
    "loggers": {
        "django_migration_zero": {
            "handlers": ["console"],
            "level": "INFO",
            "propagate": True,
        },
    },
}
Publish to ReadTheDocs.io

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".
