Check for pending Django migrations

Question

In Django, is there an easy way to check whether all database migrations have been run? I\'ve found manage.py migrate --list, which gives me the information I want,

Answer 1

Here is my Python soloution to get some information about the migration-states:

from io import StringIO  # for Python 2 use from StringIO import StringIO  
from django.core.management import call_command 

def get_migration_state():
    result = []
    out = StringIO()
    call_command('showmigrations', format="plan", stdout=out)
    out.seek(0)
    for line in out.readlines():
        status, name = line.rsplit(' ', 1)
        result.append((status.strip() == '[X]', name.strip()))
    return result

The result of this function looks like that:

[(True, 'contenttypes.0001_initial'),
 (True, 'auth.0001_initial'),
 (False, 'admin.0001_initial'),
 (False, 'admin.0002_logentry_remove_auto_add')]

Maybe it helps some of you guys..
