Dependencies
------------

* MySQL (or compatible)
* PostgreSQL
* Microsoft SQL Server

Installation
------------
`pip install django-add-default-value`

You can then use ``AddDefaultValue`` in your migration file to transfer the default
values to your database. Afterwards, it's just the usual ``./manage.py migrate``.

Usage
-----

Add this manually to a autogenerated Migration, that adds a new field::

    AddDefaultValue(
        model_name='my_model',
        name='my_field',
        value='my_default'
    )


### Example

Given the following migration::

    operations = [
        migrations.AddField(
            field=models.CharField(default='my_default', max_length=255),
            model_name='my_model',
            name='my_field',
        ),
    ]

Modify the migration to add a default value::


    +from django_add_default_value import AddDefaultValue
    +
     operations = [
         migrations.AddField(
             field=models.CharField(default='my_default', max_length=255),
             model_name='my_model',
             name='my_field',
         ),
    +    AddDefaultValue(
    +        model_name='my_model',
    +        name='my_field',
    +        value='my_default'
    +    )
     ]

If you check ``python manage.py sqlmigrate [app name] [migration]``,
you will see that the default value now gets set.

Contributing
------------

First of all, thank you very much for contributing to this project. Please base
your work on the ``master`` branch and target ``master`` in your pull request.

There are a few packages needed on the host system. For ubuntu the following
commands will install these

```text
apt-get install freetds-dev unixodbc-dev tdsodbc
```
Then add the following text to `/etc/odbcinst.ini`:
```ini
[FreeTDS]
Description=FreeTDS unixODBC Driver
Driver=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/odbc/libtdsodbc.so
Setup=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/odbc/libtdsS.so
```

To succesfully use the `dbshell` management command (very useful for debugging),
the client binaries for the respective database engines are needed.

Then install [pipenv](https://pipenv.readthedocs.io/en/latest/install/#installing-pipenv).
Edit the `Pipfile` to select your Django version and the accompanying MS-SQL
driver. Make sure you don't commit this change in any pull request - we always
set it to the oldest supported version.

Once you've updated the Pipfile, run `pipenv install --python 3 --dev`. You
should now have a working development environment as a virtualenv. To access it,
run `pipenv shell` or prefix commands with `pipenv run`. For more information
see the [pipenv documentation](https://pipenv.readthedocs.io/en/latest/basics/).

### Testing
Copy the relevant sample settings file in `test_project` to the file without
 `.sample` in it. Adjust the values to match your environment (or match your
environment to the values).

You should now be able to run the tests using `tox`. Select your environment
when needed, using the `-e` command line flag. See
[Tox's excellent documentation](https://preview.tinyurl.com/y3faq6ab).

Roadmap
-------
- 0.1: Better and maintainable packaging
- 0.3: Tests work with tox. Supported platforms / versions frozen
- 0.5: Solid tests integrated with Travis or similar CI pipeline
- 0.9: Final API changes preparing for 1.0
- 1.0: API freeze
