Hi Mike,
I had the exact same problem and after investigating I ended up creating
a new app from scratch and porting the code and data across. I don't
remember finding any specific documentation on this on Django's website.
Did I miss something, or should we consider adding a couple of notes on
that?

I looked into Erik's suggestion but eventually decided to do exactly
what you did. Just finished and it all seems to be working except for a
m2m relationship which is currently eluding me. It will sort itself out
though.
I'm a big believer in refactoring so the apps, table names and column
names closely match the real world. It might be a good idea to document
replacing the app as a realistic approach to such refactoring.
It will be a week or two before I can think about that. I have a severe
deadline approaching.
What are your thoughts?
Mike

With Django 1.7 and Postgres I want to change the name of an app.
From my initial investigation it looks like I need to create a new
app
with the desired name and then blow the old one away after pumping the
data across.
Then comes the refactoring.
At the moment I just use a vanilla text editor (Textpad) on Windows.
However, based on my observation of the occasional IDE wars on this
list
I have lately been toying with the idea of teaching myself to use
PyCharm.
Does anyone have any experience with app-renames and maybe some
refactoring advice for me?
Maybe I don't even need to replace and destroy ...
Thanks
Mike
