Description
Initial migrations for an app with this kind of model setup will fail when running ./manage.py migrate
:
class Parent(models.Model): spouse = models.ForeignKey('self') class Child(models.Model): parent = models.ForeignKey(Parent) class Meta: order_with_respect_to = 'parent'
This is the resulting traceback:
File "./manage.py", line 10, in <module> execute_from_command_line(sys.argv) File "/home/jonas/temp/django/django/core/management/__init__.py", line 427, in execute_from_command_line utility.execute() File "/home/jonas/temp/django/django/core/management/__init__.py", line 419, in execute self.fetch_command(subcommand).run_from_argv(self.argv) File "/home/jonas/temp/django/django/core/management/base.py", line 288, in run_from_argv self.execute(*args, **options.__dict__) File "/home/jonas/temp/django/django/core/management/base.py", line 337, in execute output = self.handle(*args, **options) File "/home/jonas/temp/django/django/core/management/commands/migrate.py", line 145, in handle executor.migrate(targets, plan, fake=options.get("fake", False)) File "/home/jonas/temp/django/django/db/migrations/executor.py", line 60, in migrate self.apply_migration(migration, fake=fake) File "/home/jonas/temp/django/django/db/migrations/executor.py", line 88, in apply_migration if self.detect_soft_applied(migration): File "/home/jonas/temp/django/django/db/migrations/executor.py", line 132, in detect_soft_applied apps = project_state.render() File "/home/jonas/temp/django/django/db/migrations/state.py", line 48, in render model.render(self.apps) File "/home/jonas/temp/django/django/db/migrations/state.py", line 232, in render body, File "/home/jonas/temp/django/django/db/models/base.py", line 298, in __new__ new_class._prepare() File "/home/jonas/temp/django/django/db/models/base.py", line 322, in _prepare opts._prepare(cls) File "/home/jonas/temp/django/django/db/models/options.py", line 180, in _prepare self.order_with_respect_to = self.get_field(self.order_with_respect_to) File "/home/jonas/temp/django/django/db/models/options.py", line 397, in get_field raise FieldDoesNotExist('%s has no field named %r' % (self.object_name, name)) django.db.models.fields.FieldDoesNotExist: Child has no field named 'parent'
makemigrations
creates three migrations:
- The first migration creates the
Child
model without theparent
field as well as theParent
model without thespouse
field. - The second migration adds the
spouse
field toParent
. - The third migration adds
parent
toChild
.
The error occurs in the first migration, when the _prepare()
wants to access the parent
field for order_with_respect_to
and can't, as it doesn't exist yet.
I tried adding a test in Django proper but wasn't able to. Will keep trying but support is appreciated.

This is odd. I'd expect all the fields to be created immediately, and only the constraint creation to be delayed.

Hmm, that might be possible - we could replace the AddField(ForeignKey) with AddField(IntegerField) (or whatever the underlying type is) and then have the second thing be the AlterField to a ForeignKey. I'll try that approach.

Just noting that this will be fixed as part of the big autodetector rewrite.
comment:9 by , 10 years ago
This didn't land in the main autodetector merge, but it can now be fixed as that's in place. I plan to add a new operation for alterations to order_with_respect_to (or perhaps just alteration of model options in general) and implement that with proper dependency to fix this.

Urgh, this is nasty. I'm going to have to find some way of pushing back all Meta changes along with delayed ForeignKeys (this bug will also occur for index_together and unique_together among others).
