Overriding the db_table attribute of event models

[stephan0h]

Hello,
Our models have all set the db_table attribute in the Meta class. Meaning the table names are different than the model names.
I would like to keep it that way also for the event tables. Example:
One model's name is 'Delivery' and the table name is 'ep_delivery'. I would like the name of the event table to be 'ep_delivery_event' instead of _deliveryevent. Is this not possible?
kind regards,
stephan

Found that I can solve this with a Custom Event Model ...

@stephan0h you can also pass meta to pghistory.track if you'd like to override Meta attributes of the event model. This may cut down on the code boilerplate of defining a custom event model:

@pghistory.track(meta={'db_table': 'my_custom_event_table_name'})
class MyTrackedModel(models.Model):
    pass

Oh, that's a nice way to solve this indeed! :-)
