# Description In #392, we want to improve plugin models to support foreign keys to other plugins' models. Currently, the `import_whitebox_model` wrapper does not play well with migrations, and there are a lot of unknowns that need to be figured out: - How should foreign keys even work - Should they be DB enforced or not - If DB enforced, what happens when a plugin is not loaded/removed - If not DB enforced, should there be some kind of Whitebox-specific mechanism for handling missing relations - How should eventual replacements work - Specific implementation details are out of scope, but investigation of overall constraints around replacement, deprecation, migration are within scope - How should all this be represented in migrations # Scope - WIP, possibly a POC - two phases # MRs - https://gitlab.com/whitebox-aero/whitebox/-/merge_requests/222 - https://gitlab.com/whitebox-aero/whitebox-plugin-device-insta360/-/merge_requests/31 - https://gitlab.com/whitebox-aero/whitebox-plugin-device-manager/-/merge_requests/25 - https://gitlab.com/whitebox-aero/whitebox-plugin-flight-annotations/-/merge_requests/4 - https://gitlab.com/whitebox-aero/whitebox-plugin-flight-management/-/merge_requests/19 - https://gitlab.com/whitebox-aero/whitebox-plugin-gps-simulator/-/merge_requests/16 - https://gitlab.com/whitebox-aero/whitebox-plugin-location/-/merge_requests/4 - https://gitlab.com/whitebox-aero/whitebox-plugin-map-icons/-/merge_requests/9 - https://gitlab.com/whitebox-aero/whitebox-plugin-map/-/merge_requests/32 - https://gitlab.com/whitebox-aero/whitebox-plugin-stratux/-/merge_requests/12 - https://gitlab.com/whitebox-aero/whitebox-plugin-telegraf/-/merge_requests/2 - https://gitlab.com/whitebox-aero/whitebox-plugin-transfer-manager/-/merge_requests/2 - https://gitlab.com/whitebox-aero/whitebox-plugin-traffic-display/-/merge_requests/11 - https://gitlab.com/whitebox-aero/whitebox-plugin-ui-components/-/merge_requests/5 - https://gitlab.com/whitebox-aero/whitebox-plugin-icons/-/merge_requests/8 - https://gitlab.com/whitebox-aero/whitebox-plugin-device-status/-/merge_requests/9 - https://gitlab.com/whitebox-aero/whitebox-plugin-videojs/-/merge_requests/6 - https://gitlab.com/whitebox-aero/whitebox-plugin-pannellum/-/merge_requests/7 - https://gitlab.com/whitebox-aero/whitebox-plugin-demo-mode/-/merge_requests/2
