How to prepare django migrations?

Question

Migrating data in django involves two steps:

python manage.py makemigrations
python manage.py migrate

The first step prepares migrations that, as far as I know, are database specific; that is, depending on which database backend you are going to use, you will receive different migrations.

If I use in development sqlite, but in the production process, postgresdoes this mean that the migration that I prepare in development will not work for the production machine?

Answer 1

Migrations created by the makemigrations team are database independent; they can be run in any database.

python manage.py sqlmigrate # which displays the SQL statements for a migration
