Hi,
Adding to the above, I have two migration-related ideas.
The first is quite down-to-earth: Support for moving models between
apps. This is a long-standing problem, esp. in enterprise-y or just
long-running projects. I have expressed my dissatisfaction with the
current state of things a couple of years ago[1], and maybe it's time
to change that.
The second is a bit of a pie-in-the-sky: Allow auto-detection of custom
migration operations. The auto-detector has its change-detection mostly
hard-coded into it[2], and it doesn't seem easy or even possible to
allow third-party code to intervene. But I dream...
Note: These two are quite independent. Auto-detection of the fact that
a model has moved between apps is not required, supporting such moves
with flags to makemigrations or even a dedicated management-command
would be completely satisfactory as far as I'm concerned.
Thanks,
Shai.
