peewee.IntegrityError: NOT NULL constraint failed: user.id

''' from peewee import *

forum_db = SqliteDatabase("forum.db")

class BaseModel(Model):
    class Meta:
        database = forum_db

class User(BaseModel):
    name = CharField(unique = True)
    id = IntegerField()

class Post(BaseModel):
    id = IntegerField()
    message = TextField()

    forum_db.connect()
    forum_db.create_tables([User, Post, Thread])

    User.create(id = 1, name = "Cameron")

I am creating a database for a simple forum API that I am making. Although when I try to create a User, it gives me the error in the title. I put ''' id = 1 ''', so I am unsure how to fix this.

Solution

You probably want to use an auto-incrementing primary key. These are created implicitly as "id = AutoField()", but you can explicitly define one as:

class User(...):
    id = AutoField()

You have specified id = IntegerField which requires that you set the value explicitly.

Also unrelated but your backref names are not correct. I don't think you quite understand them. They would be users in your examples.
