Django - manage.py sql APPNAME not generating model SQL

Question

I have a relatively large flat application that I\'m working on. To maintain separation of concerns, I\'ve split the model and view files into auth_models, d

Answer 1

If your auth_models.py contains a model class MyUserModel, you need to put the following in the __init__.py under app/models:

try:
    from .auth_models import MyUserModel
except ImportError as e:
    sys.stderr.write("Error: failed to import models module ({})".format(e))

P.S. Another suggestion would be to improve the style you name your files with. Since auth_models.py, dashboard_models.py and taxonomy_models.py are all under app/models you can simply truncate the _models.py ending. I.e. rename your files under /models:

auth_models.py -> auth.py
dashboard_models.py -> dashboard.py
taxonomy_models.py -> taxonomy.py

To import the Model classes as instructed above:

from .auth import MyUserModel
