Run "Create" without changes breaks the code about peewee-moves HOT 3 CLOSED

Yes, that's the right functionality.

Running create generates the initial create_table commands but it does not have the ability to detect changes in models.

If you add a column to your model, you'll need to generate a new migration and add the add_column statement manually.

flask db revision "add content to tweet"

Then update your migration:

def upgrade(migrator):
    migrator.add_column('tweet', 'content', 'text')

def downgrade(migrator):
    migrator.drop_column('tweet', 'content')

• Are there plans to implement this feature in the future?
• This software is considered complete as is?
• Or in case I can contribute to the development of this feature, will my pull request be accepted?

I think it would be a great feature to have. I have no plans to implement it, mostly because I don't have time to dedicate to it.

I have given it much thought though. There are many different changes to a model that could take place like...

1. adding a column
2. removing a column
3. renaming a column
4. changing column data type
5. changing column length
6. and more...

Django and Alembic have both solved this, but using different strategies. Django keeps track of model history (it knows what your models look like before each change). I wouldn't be opposed to doing something like that, but it's definitely more complex.

Adding a column and removing a column are the easiest to detect and quite common actions, so even if it were able to do that, I think it would be helpful.

I will gladly accept pull requests for this feature (or any other feature for that matter). I don't use this library too often anymore, but if it's useful to other people I'd like to keep it alive. I'd be glad to help with development as well, I just don't have time to do it completely in any reasonable time frame.
