RE: Run model check with Django 1.11 as deployment check only?
Hi Carsten,
I wish I could provide more help. I had no idea there was a check method or a
system check framework until your message.
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.11/topics/checks/
I have learned something new.
One thing mentioned in the topic guide above is this:
If you need to run system checks on your deployment server, trigger them
explicitly using check.
The check command documentation is here:
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.11/ref/django-admin/#django-admin-check
Hoping that helps,
Matthew

Normally, I would happily agree. However, in this case, the Status objects are
static and never supposed to change (without reloading the entire project).
Based on this assumption, all that I want is a constant `MAX_ID` that reflects
the largest possible ID of the existing Status objects, so that frequent access
to it does not each time inflict a database access.
Therefore, my older code just had a module global variable like this:
MAX_ID = Status.objects.aggregate(Max('id'))['id__max']
This is simple and "usually" works well, but note that it fails whenever an
empty database is initialized, that is, whenever the very first migration is
run (in which case the above global code is run even before the Status table
exists), which in turn happens when the project is deployed to a new site or
whenever the test database is populated.
In summary:
Code that is run at load time (such as the global `MAX_ID = ...` above) or
close to load time (such as the Django system checks) cannot access the
database if the database is only populated at a later time, as is the case with
initial migrations for new deployments or tests databases.
What I would like to check, though, is the production or development databases;
thus my question for marking the model check „for deployment only“.
Best regards,
Carsten

RE: Run model check with Django 1.11 as deployment check only?
I would argue that your code should be able to run successfully with an empty
database.
I would change your assignment of maxID to this:
maxID = cls.objects.aggregate(Max('id'))['id__max'] or 0
I often add the 'or 0' to my aggregates because I never really know if my
aggregate will deal with an empty QuerySet.

Subject: Run model check with Django 1.11 as deployment check only?
Dear Django group,
with Django 1.10, I used a model check like this:
class Status(models.Model):
id = models.AutoField(primary_key=True)
MAX_ID = 38
text = models.CharField(max_length=20, blank=True)
@classmethod
def check(cls, **kwargs):
errors = super(Status, cls).check(**kwargs)
maxID = cls.objects.aggregate(Max('id'))['id__max']
# The app sometimes computes histograms,
# so make sure that the Status.id values are as expected.
if cls.MAX_ID != maxID:
errors.append(checks.Warning(...))
return errors
This used to work well, considering that up to Django 1.10, this and other
checks weren't run along with `manage.py test`.
Now that Django 1.11 runs checks also with tests, the above check obviously
fails, because at the time the checks are run, the test database is still
empty, yielding `maxID = None`.
Declaring the above check as “at deployment only” seems to be a good
resolution, but is it possible to do that with a model (base-class based) check?
Best regards,
Carsten
