I was reading this article
http://discuss.joelonsoftware.com/default.asp?joel.3.309321.4
and I really liked that django doesn't have any of the reasons the author has
mentioned, except no. 4
> 4. RAILS ATE MY DATA, OR AT LEAST STOOD IDLY BY WHILE MY \
> DATA WAS EATEN
I tried to check how django handles this, so I used this model
---------
class Task(Model):
title = CharField('Task', maxlength=100, unique=True)
description = TextField(blank=True)
priority = CharField(maxlength=1, choices=TASK_PRIO, radio_admin=True)
-------
and tried to execute this (on the shell)
-------
>>> t = models.Task(title='1'*200)
>>>
>>> t.save()
-------
Now, the problems are
1. The "title" field is exceeding the maximim size
2. Other *required* fields was not set
Shouldn't these be done at the "save" method? Django shouldn't depend on the
DBMS do these checks, because some fields cannot be represented by the
underlying DB
I'm using django version 0.96 pre & Sqlite
