#24135 closed Bug (fixed)

migrations.RenameModel does not rename m2m tables

Reported by: Ruben Nielsen Owned by: Tim Graham
Component: Migrations Version: 1.7
Severity: Release blocker Keywords: rename m2m
Cc: Triage Stage: Ready for checkin
Has patch: yes Needs documentation: no

Description

Observe the following models

class Tag(Model):
    content = Charfield(...)

class CustomerModel(Model):
    keywords = ManyToManyField('Tag')

this will generate 3 tables

applabel_customermodel
applabel_tag
applabel_customermodel_keywords

when I try to rename CustomerModel to Customer in a migration, the autogenerated table is not renamed

migration:

operations = [
        migrations.RenameModel('CustomerModel', 'Customer'),
    ]

tables:

applabel_customer
applabel_tag
applabel_customermodel_keywords

This causes my code to fail, since lookups on customer.keywords.all() expect to find the table applabel_customer_keywords, which does not exist.

The error is observed in 1.7.1 and 1.7.2

Managed to reproduce against master. Should this block the release of 1.8 alpha?

I presume it's an existing bug on 1.7 as well, in which case no.
