I'll just be talking about PostgreSQL, since it's the only one i've been
using, but it might also be possible with other Database Engines.
When you set a default on a field such as:
{{{
my_field = models.BooleanField(default=True)
}}}
This default is not applied to the PostgreSQL table:
{{{
Table "public.app_mytable"
Column | Type | Modifiers
-----------------+--------------------------+-----------
my_field | boolean | not null
}}}
SQLAlchemy provides a
[http://docs.sqlalchemy.org/en/latest/core/defaults.html#server-side-
defaults server_default] option.
It would be nice to have such an option in Django too.
