How to set initial tag data in django taggit Tag model

Question

Would it be possible to initialize tag data by fixtures as below;

[{
    "fields": {
        "name": "tag1"
    },
    "model": "taggit.Tag",
    "pk": 1
},
{
    "fields": {
        "name": "tag2"
    },
    "model": "taggit.Tag",
    "pk": 2
},
{
    "fields": {
        "name": "tag3"
    },
    "model": "taggit.Tag",
    "pk": 3
},]

When I try with above file I get below error. I guess it trying to insert 2nd slug same with 1st one so it is not unique. Would it be possible to set slug also in fixture file or should I try another way to initialize my tag data.

mn slug is not unique

Answer 1

slug field in the taggit.Tag model should also be unique, do something like

{
"model": "taggit.Tag",
"pk": 1,
"fields": {
    "name": "first",
    "slug":"first"
    }

},

{
"model": "taggit.Tag",
"pk": 2,
"fields": {
    "name": "second",
    "slug":"second"
    }

},

{
"model": "taggit.Tag",
"pk": 3,
"fields": {
    "name": "third",
    "slug":"third"
    }

}

It will work
