Improve SyncDB #46

Closed dcramer closed 12 years ago

dcramer commented 12 years ago

Including:

Support --database option
Support --verbosity option
Call syncdb after upgrade is run to ensure things like custom models within the test suite still get created.

I'm not really sure about the last change in the list. It solved our problems but it's not the greatest solution.

I want to reconcile thoughts laid out by @brutasse in #48. It seems I was a bit too eager to pull in previous changes, that I broke backward compatibility with workflow others were using that I was unaware of. I need to think on this some more, but would love to hear everyone's opinion on the matter.

@brutasse would it be possible to supply a patched based on this pull request's changes to support the scenario you are looking for: "Check if the DB is being synced for the 1st time. If so: do syncdb + seed migrations". I am thinking you should be able to detect this if the nashvegas_migration table is in the database or not (see init_nashvegas in the management command)?

@brutasse I am going to merge this improvement of @dcramer's but still want to consider a way to reconcile his use cases with what it appears I have broken of yours.
