I am trying to create initial users in Django 1.7 via a simple data
migration like so:
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
from __future__ import unicode_literals
from django.conf import settings
from django.contrib.auth import get_user_model
from django.db import models, migrations
def populate_initial_data(apps, schema_editor):
User = apps.get_model(settings.AUTH_USER_MODEL)
Group = apps.get_model('auth', 'Group')
user = User.objects.create_user("test", email="[email protected]",
password="test")
# AttributeError: 'Manager' object has no attribute 'create_user'
group = Group.objects.create(name="Test Group")
user.groups.add(group)
class Migration(migrations.Migration):
dependencies = [
('auth', '__first__')
]
operations = [
migrations.RunPython(populate_initial_data)
]
However the instance of User does not have a UserManager, but rather a
vanilla Manager object?
Possibly related problem, if I instead retrieve User via get_user_model()
then I get a type error attempting to add that user to a group, like so:
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
from __future__ import unicode_literals
from django.conf import settings
from django.contrib.auth import get_user_model
from django.db import models, migrations
def populate_initial_data(apps, schema_editor):
User = get_user_model()
Group = apps.get_model('auth', 'Group')
user = User.objects.create_user("test", email="[email protected]",
password="test")
group = Group.objects.create(name="Test Group")
user.groups.add(group)
# TypeError: 'Group' instance expected, got <Group: Group object>
class Migration(migrations.Migration):
dependencies = [
('auth', '__first__')
]
operations = [
migrations.RunPython(populate_initial_data)
]
I'm trying to replace the functionality of fixtures, which has apparently
been deprecated with apps that use migrations.
Thanks!
