How to remove all of the data in a table using Django

Question

I have two questions:

1. How do I delete a table in Django?
2. How do I remove all the data in the table?

This is my code, which is not succe

Answer 1

Django 1.11 delete all objects from a database table -

Entry.objects.all().delete()  ## Entry being Model Name. 

Refer the Official Django documentation here as quoted below - https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.11/topics/db/queries/#deleting-objects

Note that delete() is the only QuerySet method that is not exposed on a Manager itself. This is a safety mechanism to prevent you from accidentally requesting Entry.objects.delete(), and deleting all the entries. If you do want to delete all the objects, then you have to explicitly request a complete query set:

I myself tried the code snippet seen below within my somefilename.py

    # for deleting model objects
    from django.db import connection
    def del_model_4(self):
        with connection.schema_editor() as schema_editor:
            schema_editor.delete_model(model_4)

and within my views.py i have a view that simply renders a html page ...

  def data_del_4(request):
      obj = calc_2() ## 
      obj.del_model_4()
      return render(request, 'dc_dash/data_del_4.html') ## 

it ended deleting all entries from - model == model_4 , but now i get to see a Error screen within Admin console when i try to asceratin that all objects of model_4 have been deleted ...

ProgrammingError at /admin/dc_dash/model_4/
relation "dc_dash_model_4" does not exist
LINE 1: SELECT COUNT(*) AS "__count" FROM "dc_dash_model_4" 

Do consider that - if we do not go to the ADMIN Console and try and see objects of the model - which have been already deleted - the Django app works just as intended.
