Description
While removing models in one of my migrations, I was prompted by Django to input yes/no. For development, this is no problem. For automatic deployments it is.
I want to know if there exists or if it's possible to add functionality to Django to do this. I've created a modification which works, but also want to learn if anyone else has solved this problem differently.
Modifying the deployment file to include --noinput does not solve this problem (it basically defaults to no which ultimately doesn't remove the model).
The patch I've created seems to be working just fine. My solution involves editing the contenttypes to take an additional argument. The argument can be invoked inside your migration file so that I have full control over when it's used. You can view the code below.
