Do these values stored in the database really contain space(s)? How many of them? Or are they empty strings?

  • Ticket #10114 – Description

    initial v1  
    11I have a model in which several fields are specified as follows:
    22
     3{{{
    34    lat_dec = models.FloatField(blank=True, null=True)
    45    lon_dec = models.FloatField(blank=True, null=True)
    56    lat_dms = models.CharField(max_length=9, blank=True, null=True)
    67    lon_dms = models.CharField(max_length=10, blank=True, null=True)
     8}}}
    79
    810In case of the CharFields, spaces are inserted into the database (PostgreSQL) when in the admin form the entry-fields are left blank. I found that out because I made some trigger procedures which update lat_dec and lon_dec when lat_dms and lon_dms (see model) are specified and vice versa. Now I made a workaround by adjusting the trigger procedure so it sets the fields to NULL when containing only spaces.
