Django migrations--is it possible to use South in the middle of the project?

Question

I already started a project, and the models are all synced and everything.

Answer 1

It's quite straight forward to start using South.

Just follow the installation instructions (don't forget to run syncdb at the end).

Then you can convert the app to south:

./manage.py convert_to_south myapp

Then you can make modifications to your model and do schemamigrations or even do datamigrations.
