lint-django-migrations 1.1.0

Detect backward incompatible migrations for your django project

Lint Django migrations

Install

pip install lint_django_migrations

How to use

1. Install the app in settings.py

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    # ...
    "lint_django_migrations",
]

2. Check your migrations

python manage.py lintmigrations

This will return an error if any of the migrations are backwards incompatible.

3. Fix errors If there is an error, you have 2 options. Fix the migration or tell the linter that the migration is not backwards incompatible. If you feel the migration is ok, run the command again with the --interactive flag

python manage.py lintmigrations --interactive

Setup on existing code base

If you would like to setup the linter on the existing codebase, it can be tedious to mark every applied migration as valid. For that purpose, you can snapshot the current state and just run the linter on future migrations

python manage.py lintmigrations --force-update

## All API options

Run the linter in CI

If you want to run the linter, but not update the state use the following command

python manage.py lintmigrations --check-only
