Changes (by elijahr):
* keywords: inspectdb underscore => inspectdb underscore characters
digits
Comment:
There are a few other scenarios where invalid field names could be
generated via the inspectdb command. For instance, a column name of
"Foo/Bar", while unconventional, is a valid column name, at least in MySQL
5, but the invalid field name of 'foo/bar' would be generated.
Currently, inspectdb ensures that:
- field names do not contain spaces or dashes
- field names are not Python keywords
The patch I just attached improves this by also ensuring that:
- field names do not contain any characters outside of a-zA-Z0-9_
- field names do not contain double underscores
- field names neither start nor end with underscores
- field names do not start with digits
