在SQLAlchemy中创建外键失败

Question

I want every user to have a value called allocatedstorage and availablestorage . Those two values are stored in another table. However when I create the following database it shows the error below. What am I doing wrong? Thanks for your help.

class User(UserMixin, db.Model):
    __tablename__ = 'user'
    id = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True)
    username = db.Column(db.String(15), unique=True)
    email = db.Column(db.String(50), unique=True)
    password = db.Column(db.String(80))
    role= db.Column(db.String(20));
    usersessiontoken = db.Column(db.String(500), unique=True)
    hasstorage = db.Column(db.Integer, db.ForeignKey('storageinformation.allocatedstorage'))
    hasavailablestorage = db.Column(db.Integer, db.ForeignKey('storageinformation.availablestorage'))

    storageinformation = db.relationship('StorageInformation', backref='user')

class StorageInformation(UserMixin, db.Model):
    __tablename__ = 'storageinformation'
    id = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True)
    allocatedstorage = db.Column(db.Integer)
    availablestorage = db.Column(db.Integer)

Error:

sqlalchemy.exc.IntegrityError: (pymysql.err.IntegrityError) (1215, 'Cannot add foreign key constraint') [SQL: '\nCREATE TABLE user (\n\tid INTEGER NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, \n\tusername VARCHAR(15), \n\temail VARCHAR(50), \n\tpassword VARCHAR(80), \n\t`role` VARCHAR(20), \n\tusersessiontoken VARCHAR(500), \n\thasstorage INTEGER, \n\thasavailablestorage INTEGER, \n\tPRIMARY KEY (id), \n\tUNIQUE (username), \n\tUNIQUE (email), \n\tUNIQUE (usersessiontoken), \n\tFOREIGN KEY(hasstorage) REFERENCES storageinformation (allocatedstorage), \n\tFOREIGN KEY(hasavailablestorage) REFERENCES storageinformation (availablestorage)\n)\n\n']

• In my case, the actual reason was not shown in the output of migration command
• I was able found the problem only by running the same command in database console

Command was ALTER TABLE assignment ADD FOREIGN KEY(session_id) REFERENCES battery (session_id)

Actual problem Create table 'db_name/#sql-5f9_11e' with foreign key constraint failed. There is no index in the referenced table where the referenced columns appear as the first columns. Cannot add foreign key constraint Create table 'db_name/#sql-5f9_11e' with foreign key constraint failed. There is no index in the referenced table where the referenced columns appear as the first columns. Cannot add foreign key constraint

Mysql Doc -> Using FOREIGN KEY Constraints

MySQL requires indexes on foreign keys and referenced keys so that foreign key checks can be fast and not require a table scan. In the referencing table, there must be an index where the foreign key columns are listed as the first columns in the same order.

InnoDB permits a foreign key to reference any index column or group of columns. However, in the referenced table, there must be an index where the referenced columns are listed as the first columns in the same order.
