Description

Sort of taking inspectdb/syncdb a little further. This could be a step closer to having database migration/versioning.

For example, if I had the following Model:

class Book(models.Model):
    name = models.CharField(maxlength=50, unique=True)
    author = models.CharField(maxlength=100)

the function could report things like:

  • "name" field doesn't have UNIQUE specified
  • "name" field is varchar(100) instead of varchar(50)
  • "name" field is set NULL instead of NOT NULL
  • "author" field does not exist in the database
