Django Drifter Project

Currently only supports PostgreSQL

Overview

The Drifter project provides custom Django management commands to manage database migrations. It includes commands to revert and redo migrations for a specified app or the entire project.

These commands are most useful during development and so cannot be run in production (DEBUG = False).

Features

• Revert Migration: Reverts one or more migrations, optionally for a specified app.
• Redo Migration: Reverts and re-applies the last migration, optionally for a specified app.
• Reset Database: Drops all tables and runs all migrations.

Installation

1. Install the package: sh pip install django-drifter
2. Add drifter to the INSTALLED_APPS setting in your Django project's settings.py file: python INSTALLED_APPS = [ "drifter", ..., ]

Usage

Revert Migration

The revert_migration command reverts the last migration for a specified app.

python manage.py revert_migration [app_name] [--num N]

• app_name: The name of the app whose migration you want to revert.
• --num N: (Optional) The number of migrations to revert. Defaults to 1.

Redo Migration

The redo_migration command undoes and redoes the last migration for a specified app.

python manage.py redo_migration [--app app_name]

• --app app_name: (Optional) The name of the app whose migration you want to redo.

Reset Database

The reset_database command drops all tables and runs all migrations.

python manage.py reset_database [--yes]

• --yes: (Optional) Skips the confirmation prompt.

Running Tests

Before running the tests, start a local Postgres database:

docker run --name drifter-postgres -e POSTGRES_USER=django -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=django -p 5432:5432 -d polls

To run the tests, use the following command:

pytest
