django: model / DB table coupling

stateless · 05-08-2013, 02:38 PM

Hi. How tight is the coupling between a model and its database table? Specifically: If I use the MySQL client to add a column onto a table (and I don't delete or alter any other columns) will the existing model and the code based on it continue to work as normal?

Yes it will.

Three whole minutes for a response! Terrible service around here!
