#14305 closed New feature (fixed)

inspectdb should output unmanaged model definitions

Description

I'm a little surprised that this hasn't been brought up before, but I couldn't find any existing tickets or discussion.

inspectdb should automatically set managed = False on the model definitions it creates. Since these are preexisting tables, the user almost certainly does not want Django attempting to drop them when a reset is run.

Accepting on the basis this could mean user data is at risk and it is better to go with the safe choice- The additional work for the developer to remove the managed=False line would serve as an explicit opt in about allowing Django to handle the table.
