Description
Suppose I have the following model:
class Food(models.Model):
restaurants = models.ManyToManyField(Restaurant)
The following table is created:
CREATE TABLE "main_food_restaurants" (
"id" integer NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
"food_id" integer NOT NULL,
"restaurant_id" integer NOT NULL,
UNIQUE ("food_id", "restaurant_id")
)
and the indexes:
CREATE INDEX "main_food_restaurants_0899c464" ON "main_food_restaurants" ("food_id");
CREATE INDEX "main_food_restaurants_be4c8f84" ON "main_food_restaurants" ("restaurant_id");
Notice that the single index on food_id is not needed due to the unique index (food_id, restaurant_id)
