# Django Drifter Project

_*Currently only supports PostgreSQL*_

## Overview

The Drifter project provides custom Django management commands to
manage database migrations. It includes commands to revert and redo
migrations for a specified app or the entire project.

These commands are most useful during development and so cannot be
run in production (`DEBUG = False`).

## Features

- **Revert Migration**: Reverts one or more migrations, optionally for a specified app.
- **Redo Migration**: Reverts and re-applies the last migration, optionally for a specified app.
- **Reset Database**: Drops all tables and runs all migrations.

## Installation

1. Install the package:
```sh
pip install django-drifter
```
2. Add `drifter` to the `INSTALLED_APPS` setting in your Django project's `settings.py` file:
```python
INSTALLED_APPS = [
"drifter",
...,
]
```

## Usage

### Revert Migration

The `revert_migration` command reverts the last migration for a specified app.

```sh
python manage.py revert_migration [app_name] [--num N]
```

- `app_name`: The name of the app whose migration you want to revert.
- `--num N`: (Optional) The number of migrations to revert. Defaults to 1.

### Redo Migration

The `redo_migration` command undoes and redoes the last migration for a specified app.

```sh
python manage.py redo_migration [--app app_name]
```

- `--app app_name`: (Optional) The name of the app whose migration you want to redo.

### Reset Database

The `reset_database` command drops all tables and runs all migrations.

```sh
python manage.py reset_database [--yes]
```

- `--yes`: (Optional) Skips the confirmation prompt.

## Running Tests

Before running the tests, start a local Postgres database:

```shell
docker run --name drifter-postgres -e POSTGRES_USER=django -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=django -p 5432:5432 -d polls
```

To run the tests, use the following command:

```sh
pytest
```

## Example

### Revert Migration Example

```sh
python manage.py revert_migration polls --num 2
```

This command reverts the last two migrations for the `polls` app.

### Redo Migration Example

```sh
python manage.py redo_migration --app polls
```

This command redoes the last migration for the `polls` app.

### Reset Database Example

```sh
python manage.py reset_database
```

This command drops all tables and runs all migrations.
