Description

After creating a new empty migration, I got an error when applying it. The error is pretty clear when you have the context but can be misleading for beginners: I created a migration containing a dot in its name so Django has split the migration and fails to import the module somehow.

$ python manage.py makemigrations myapp --empty -n "remove_foo.bar_thing"
Migrations for 'myapp':
  myproject/myapp/migrations/0085_remove_foo.bar_thing.py
                                            ^ notice the dot here


$ python manage.py migrate
Traceback (most recent call last):

ImportError: No module named 'myproject.myapp.migrations.0085_remove_foo'

I suggest to add a validation step that fails when the migration name supplied with the -n/--name argument contains dots (and why not spaces too?).

To be honest, I only tried this on Django 2.0.x, but I did not see any changes about this problem in Django 2.1 releases notes.

Replying to Prabakaran Kumaresshan:

Hi,

How are things going?

My first thought is to edit makemigrations and test_commands

I am not pushing. Not at all. I am just talking about the ticket. Feel free.

Hi,

This is my first contribution. I figured the code that needs patch just wondering where to place test scripts, thanks for the link.
I'll do regression and apply patch then let you know.

Much appreciate your help
