How to remove all of the data in a table using Django
Inside a manager:
def delete_everything(self): Reporter.objects.all().delete()def drop_table(self): cursor = connection.cursor() table_name = self.model._meta.db_table sql = "DROP TABLE %s;" % (table_name, ) cursor.execute(sql)
As per the latest documentation, the correct method to call would be:
Reporter.objects.all().delete()
If you want to remove all the data from all your tables, you might want to try the command python manage.py flush
. This will delete all of the data in your tables, but the tables themselves will still exist.
