Thanks Michael. It has been interesting so far and I'm looking forward to understanding what I've done😄 -------- Original message --------From: Michael MacIntosh <mmacint...@linear-systems.com> Date: 19/12/19 06:58 (GMT+10:00) To: django-users@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Renaming sequences Hey Mike,I'm not sure about your specific setup, but I assume you are using the django.contrib.auth user model and are moving it over to your own app, and you have your own userprofile model that links to it. The user model in django.contrib.auth is a swappable model. Basically meaning as long as it inherits from a base class (I believe BaseUser) and you configure your settings (AUTH_USER_MODEL) to look at it, you should be fine, as long as you get the user model via get_user_model.A link to the documentation on thishttps://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.0/topics/auth/customizing/#referencing-the-user-modelThe next section also goes into defining a custom user model.But in short there should be no ill-effects if you do everything right 😉.Also if you are moving your own user model into your own app, I would recommend naming it something other than common, something containing auth, like "catapp_auth" so it is clear that your user models and any custom authorization / authentication happens in there.Hope that helps!Cheers,Michael.On 12/17/2019 10:26 PM, Mike Dewhirst wrote:> Are there any consequences for renaming sequences to match the tables > which own them?>> In an existing production Django project I have just converted > auth.user into common.user and company.userprofile into > common.userprofile.>> Having gone through the migration process more or less unscathed the > original sequences are owned by the renamed tables.
