The paragraph in the note section of the `defer` documentation is not
immediately obvious to what it's implying. My understanding is that it's
suggesting that one can use two django models to load data from a single
database table, is that the only implication, or is there another?
I think adding an example would help to clarify what exactly is meant by
the paragraph.
This is what I think it means:
{{{#!python
class MyCommonlyUsedModel(models.Model):
class Meta:
managed = False
db_table = 'app_largetable'
f1 = models.Field(...)
f2 = models.Field(...)
class MyUsuallyDeferredFieldsModel(models.Model):
class Meta:
managed = False
db_table = 'app_largetable'
deferred_f3 = models.Field(...)
deferred_f4 = models.Field(...)
# A model that allows the migrations framework to also manage the table
# Not sure if this actually works, but would allow for a more DRY approach
class MyManagedModel(MyCommonlyUsedModel, MyUsuallyDeferredFieldsModel):
class Meta:
managed = True
tb_table = 'app_largetable'
}}}
If the above example is acceptable as an example - and is actually what
the note is about - I don't mind creating a PR.
