#30712: MySQL 8 supports defaults for BLOB and TEXT columns -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: Adam | Owner: nobody (Chainz) Johnson | Type: New | Status: new feature | Component: Database | Version: master layer (models, ORM) | Severity: Normal | Keywords: Triage Stage: | Has patch: 0 Unreviewed | Needs documentation: 0 | Needs tests: 0 Patch needs improvement: 0 | Easy pickings: 0 UI/UX: 0 | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Whilst implementing #27676 for MariaDB, I learned that MySQL 8.0.13+ allows defaults for BLOB and TEXT columns as well.
It has a caveat though - static defaults must always be wrapped in parentheses for such columns. https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/data-type-defaults.html -- Ticket URL: <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/30712> Django <https://code.djangoproject.com/> The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
