Creating extension using migrations
|
||||
===================================
|
||||
|
||||
You can create a PostgreSQL extension in your database using a migration file.
|
||||
This example creates an hstore extension, but the same principles apply for
|
||||
other extensions.
|
||||
|
||||
Set up the hstore extension in PostgreSQL before the first ``CreateModel``
|
||||
or ``AddField`` operation that involves
|
||||
:class:`~django.contrib.postgres.fields.HStoreField` by adding a migration with
|
||||
the :class:`~django.contrib.postgres.operations.HStoreExtension` operation.
|
||||
For example::
|
||||
|
||||
from django.contrib.postgres.operations import HStoreExtension
|
||||
|
||||
class Migration(migrations.Migration):
|
||||
...
|
||||
|
||||
operations = [
|
||||
HStoreExtension(),
|
||||
...
|
||||
]
|
||||
|
||||
Creating the extension requires a database user with superuser privileges.
|
||||
If the Django database user doesn't have superuser privileges, you'll have
|
||||
to create the extension outside of Django migrations with a user that has
|
||||
the appropriate privileges. In that case, connect to your Django database and
|
||||
run the query ``CREATE EXTENSION IF NOT EXISTS hstore;``.
