#33885: Drop automatic PostGIS extension creation on PostGIS backend -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: Johannes | Owner: nobody Maron | Type: | Status: new Cleanup/optimization | Component: GIS | Version: 4.0 Severity: Normal | Keywords: Triage Stage: | fly.amur...@gmail.com Unreviewed | Has patch: 0 Needs documentation: 0 | Needs tests: 0 Patch needs improvement: 0 | Easy pickings: 1 UI/UX: 0 | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Thanks to our friends at Heroku, we currently can't execute `create extension` without our database throwing an error.
That made us aware of the fact, that the database wrapper for PostGIS execute a SQL statement every time it prepares the database. That behavior seems inconsistent with how any other PG extension works. Usually, those have to be initialized in a migration explicitly. There has been a debate in the past, if that statement can do any harm, but clearly Heroku has proven it can. Therefore, I would suggest deprecating this behavior and schedule it for deletion in Django 5.
