Hi I have created an data migration script for populating one of app db tables with data from a JSON file. First I ran
python manage.py makemigrations --empty TPP_App
(‘TPP_App’ is the name of my app) and then I added a custom
method called populate_db which will use bulk_create to add
multiple entries to the table, and then do a save() to write the
changes to the db. At the moment the custom method is empty
because I am still working on it, but the script looks like this right
now
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
from __future__ import unicode_literals
from django.db import models, migrations
def populate_db( apps, schema_editor ):
print ‘Populating db from JSON file...'
class Migration(migrations.Migration):
dependencies = [
('TPP_App', '0003_auto_20150224_2024'),
]
operations = [
migrations.RunPython( populate_db ),
]
How do I test this script to make sure the custom method works
as expected, before I run it fully? Can I call this from the interpreter
and test it with the db API?
At the moment if I do
python manage.py migrate
it reports there are no migrations to apply.
