You are trying to add a non-nullable field 'new_field' to userprofile without a default

Question

I know that from Django 1.7 I don\'t need to use South or any other migration system, so I am just using simple command python manage.py makemigrations

Answer 1

You can use method from Django Doc from this page https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.8/ref/models/fields/#default

Create default and use it

def contact_default():
   return {"email": "to1@example.com"}

contact_info = JSONField("ContactInfo", default=contact_default)
