Comment (by liwee):
The view script can be quite long, please see attached file. I keep the
sql view script just above the relevant model in model.py. The
contrib.admin takes cares of the UI. If a view change is required, I run
the drop / create view script directly within the database, correcting
errors I see on the spot.
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.8/howto/initial-data/]
''If you require data for a test case, you should add it using either a
test fixture, or programmatically add it during the setUp() of your test
case.''
I wasn't aware that another method exist in RunSQL, thank you. To
summarize, I would need to export the view schema from the live database,
save the file, read the file and pass the contents to RunSQL to fake a
migration whenever I need to test my views. Would all these excessive
migration cause a problem? Is there anything wrong with my interpretation
of RunSQL?
It just seems cleaner if I can get create_test_db to read the exported
view schema directly or perhaps for create_test_db to extract the view
schema directly from the live database.
