db.delete_index

South 0.4 and up

db.delete_index(table_name, column_names, db_tablespace='')

Deletes an index created by db.create_index or one of the other South functions. Pass the column_names in exactly the same order as the other call to ensure this works; we use a hashing algorithm to make sure you can delete migrations by only specifying column names.

db_tablespace is an Oracle-specific option.

Examples

Deleting an index on 'name':

db.delete_index('core_profile', ['name'])

Deleting the unique index on the combination of 'name' and 'age' columns (from the db.create_index examples):

db.delete_index('core_profile', ['name', 'age'])
