SchemaEditor.create_model doesn't create a constraint name for unique_together

[Damien Nozay]

In BaseDatabaseSchemaEditor.create_model there are currently no names for unique_together constraints.

​http://stackoverflow.com/a/27836476/1733117

class BaseDatabaseSchemaEditor(object):
    # Overrideable SQL templates
    sql_create_table_unique = "UNIQUE (%(columns)s)"
    sql_create_unique = "ALTER TABLE %(table)s ADD CONSTRAINT %(name)s UNIQUE (%(columns)s)"
    sql_delete_unique = "ALTER TABLE %(table)s DROP CONSTRAINT %(name)s"

create_model has this bit:

        # Add any unique_togethers
        for fields in model._meta.unique_together:
            columns = [model._meta.get_field(field).column for field in fields]
            column_sqls.append(self.sql_create_table_unique % {
                "columns": ", ".join(self.quote_name(column) for column in columns),
            })

whereas adding a new unique_together constraint does this:

    def _create_unique_sql(self, model, columns):
        return self.sql_create_unique % {
            "table": self.quote_name(model._meta.db_table),
            "name": self.quote_name(self._create_index_name(model, columns, suffix="_uniq")),
            "columns": ", ".join(self.quote_name(column) for column in columns),
        }

In BaseDatabaseSchemaEditor.create_model there are currently no names for unique_together constraints.

possible fix:

class BaseDatabaseSchemaEditor(object):
    # Overrideable SQL templates
    sql_create_table_unique = "UNIQUE %(name)s (%(columns)s)"

create_model should have:

        # Add any unique_togethers
        for fields in model._meta.unique_together:
            columns = [model._meta.get_field(field).column for field in fields]
            column_sqls.append(self.sql_create_table_unique % {
                "name": self.quote_name(self._create_index_name(model, columns, suffix="_uniq")),
                "columns": ", ".join(self.quote_name(column) for column in columns),
            })

haven't tested it myself - but Travis will:

If we add unique_together constraints in create model, can we add index_together as well, please.

Replying to MarkusH:

If we add unique_together constraints in create model, can we add index_together as well, please.

please file a separate ticket. IMHO this is a separate concern / request.
