Changed the migration autodetector to remove models last so that FK
and M2M fields will not be left as dangling references. Added a check
in the migration state renderer to error out in the presence of
dangling references instead of leaving them as strings. Fixed a bug
in the sqlite backend to handle the deletion of M2M fields with
"through" models properly (i.e., do nothing successfully).
Thanks to melinath for report, loic for tests and andrewgodwin and
charettes for assistance with architecture.
Added reversible property to RunPython so that migrations will not
refuse to reverse migrations including RunPython operations, so long as
reverse_code is set in the RunPython constructor. Included tests to
check the reversible property on RunPython and the similar RunSQL.
This commit touchs various parts of the code base and test framework. Any
found usage of opening a cursor for the sake of initializing a connection
has been replaced with 'ensure_connection()'.
This commit is a refactoring with no change of functionality, according
to the following invariants:
- An app_label that was in app_configs and app_models stays in
app_config and has its 'installed' attribute set to True.
- An app_label that was in app_models but not in app_configs is added to
app_configs and has its 'installed' attribute set to True.
As a consequence, all the code that iterated on app_configs is modified
to check for the 'installed' attribute. Code that iterated on app_models
is rewritten in terms of app_configs.
Many tests that stored and restored the state of the app cache were
updated.
In the long term, we should reconsider the usefulness of allowing
importing models from non-installed applications. This doesn't sound
particularly useful, can be a trap in some circumstances, and causes
significant complexity in sensitive areas of Django.
Since the original ones in django.db.models.loading were kept only for
backwards compatibility, there's no need to recreate them. However, many
internals of Django still relied on them.
They were also imported in django.db.models. They never appear in the
documentation, except a quick mention of get_models and get_app in the
1.2 release notes to document an edge case in GIS. I don't think that
makes them a public API.
This commit doesn't change the overall amount of global state but
clarifies that it's tied to the app_cache object instead of hiding it
behind half a dozen functions.
