Method ​_rename​_field​_sql Undocumented
Method ​_unique​_should​_be​_added Undocumented
Method ​_unique​_sql Undocumented
Method column​_sql Return the column definition for a field. The field must already have had set_attributes_from_name() called.
Method effective​_default Return a field's effective database default value.
Method prepare​_default Only used for backends which have requires_literal_defaults feature
Method quote​_name Undocumented
Method remove​_procedure Undocumented
Method skip​_default Some backends don't accept default values for certain columns types (i.e. MySQL longtext and longblob).
Method skip​_default​_on​_alter Some backends don't accept default values for certain columns types (i.e. MySQL longtext and longblob) in the ALTER COLUMN statement.

def __exit__(self, exc_type, exc_value, traceback):
def _alter_field(self, model, old_field, new_field, old_type, new_type, old_db_params, new_db_params, strict=False):
Perform a "physical" (non-ManyToMany) field update.
def _alter_many_to_many(self, model, old_field, new_field, strict):
Alter M2Ms to repoint their to= endpoints.
def _collate_sql(self, collation):
def _is_referenced_by_fk_constraint(self, table_name, column_name=None, ignore_self=False):
Return whether or not the provided table name is referenced by another one. If column_name is specified, only references pointing to that column are considered. If ignore_self is True, self-referential constraints are ignored.
def _remake_table(self, model, create_field=None, delete_field=None, alter_field=None):

Shortcut to transform a model from old_model into new_model

This follows the correct procedure to perform non-rename or column addition operations based on SQLite's documentation

https://www.sqlite.org/lang_altertable.html#caution

The essential steps are:
  1. Create a table with the updated definition called "new__app_model"
  2. Copy the data from the existing "app_model" table to the new table
  3. Drop the "app_model" table
  4. Rename the "new__app_model" table to "app_model"
  5. Restore any index of the previous "app_model" table.
def add_constraint(self, model, constraint):
def add_field(self, model, field):
Create a field on a model. Usually involves adding a column, but may involve adding a table instead (for M2M fields).
def alter_db_table(self, model, old_db_table, new_db_table, disable_constraints=True):
def alter_field(self, model, old_field, new_field, strict=False):
Allow a field's type, uniqueness, nullability, default, column, constraints, etc. to be modified. old_field is required to compute the necessary changes. If strict is True, raise errors if the old column does not match old_field precisely.
def delete_model(self, model, handle_autom2m=True):
def quote_value(self, value):
Return a quoted version of the value so it's safe to use in an SQL string. This is not safe against injection from user code; it is intended only for use in making SQL scripts or preparing default values for particularly tricky backends (defaults are not user-defined, though, so this is safe).
def remove_constraint(self, model, constraint):
def remove_field(self, model, field):
Remove a field from a model. Usually involves deleting a column, but for M2Ms may involve deleting a table.
