Dedicated to Malcolm Tredinnick
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On March 17, 2013, the Django project and the free software community lost
|
|
|
|
|
a very dear friend and developer.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Malcolm was a long-time contributor to Django, a model community member, a
|
|
|
|
|
brilliant mind, and a friend. His contributions to Django — and to many other
|
|
|
|
|
open source projects — are nearly impossible to enumerate. Many on the core
|
|
|
|
|
Django team had their first patches reviewed by him; his mentorship enriched
|
|
|
|
|
us. His consideration, patience, and dedication will always be an inspiration
|
|
|
|
|
to us.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This release of Django is for Malcolm.

These release notes cover the :ref:`new features <whats-new-1.6>`, as well as
|
|
|
|

some :ref:`backwards incompatible changes <backwards-incompatible-1.6>` you'll
|
|
|
|
|
want to be aware of when upgrading from Django 1.5 or older versions. We've
|
|
|
|
|
also dropped some features, which are detailed in :ref:`our deprecation plan
|
|
|
|

Python compatibility
|
|
|
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Django 1.6, like Django 1.5, requires Python 2.6.5 or above. Python 3 is also
|
|
|
|
|
officially supported. We **highly recommend** the latest minor release for each
|
|
|
|
|
supported Python series (2.6.X, 2.7.X, 3.2.X, and 3.3.X).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Django 1.6 will be the final release series to support Python 2.6; beginning
|
|
|
|
|
with Django 1.7, the minimum supported Python version will be 2.7.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2014-03-26 14:55:59 +00:00
|
|
|
|
Python 3.4 is not supported, but support will be added in Django 1.7.

Author: Aymeric Augustin <aymeric.augustin@m4x.org>
Date: Tue Jan 29 13:59:27 2013 +0100
Minor fixes in tutorials 5 and 6.

Author: Aymeric Augustin <aymeric.augustin@m4x.org>
Date: Tue Jan 29 13:51:11 2013 +0100
Updated tutorial 2 for the new project template.
commit 29ddae87bdaecff12dd31b16b000c01efbde9e20
Author: Aymeric Augustin <aymeric.augustin@m4x.org>
Date: Tue Jan 29 11:58:54 2013 +0100
Updated tutorial 1 for the new project template.
commit 0ecb9f6e2514cfd26a678a280d471433375101a3
Author: Aymeric Augustin <aymeric.augustin@m4x.org>
Date: Tue Jan 29 11:29:13 2013 +0100
Adjusted the default URLconf detection to account for the admin.
It's now enabled by default.
commit 5fb4da0d3d09dac28dd94e3fde92b9d4335c0565
Author: Aymeric Augustin <aymeric.augustin@m4x.org>
Date: Tue Jan 29 10:36:55 2013 +0100
Added security warnings for the most sensitive settings.
commit 718d84bd8ac4a42fb4b28ec93965de32680f091e
Author: Aymeric Augustin <aymeric.augustin@m4x.org>
Date: Mon Jan 28 23:24:06 2013 +0100
Used an absolute path for the SQLite database.
This ensures the settings file works regardless of which directory
django-admin.py / manage.py is invoked from.
BASE_DIR got a +1 from a BDFL and another core dev. It doesn't involve
the concept of a "Django project"; it's just a convenient way to express
relative paths within the source code repository for non-Python files.
Thanks Jacob Kaplan-Moss for the suggestion.
commit 1b559b4bcda622e10909b68fe5cab90db6727dd9
Author: Aymeric Augustin <aymeric.augustin@m4x.org>
Date: Mon Jan 28 23:22:40 2013 +0100
Removed STATIC_ROOT from the default settings template.
It isn't necessary in development, and it confuses beginners to no end.
Thanks Carl Meyer for the suggestion.
commit a55f141a500bb7c9a1bc259bbe1954c13b199671
Author: Aymeric Augustin <aymeric.augustin@m4x.org>
Date: Mon Jan 28 23:21:43 2013 +0100
Removed MEDIA_ROOT/URL from default settings template.
Many sites will never deal with user-uploaded files, and MEDIA_ROOT is
complicated to explain.
Thanks Carl Meyer for the suggestion.
commit 44bf2f2441420fd9429ee9fe1f7207f92dd87e70
Author: Aymeric Augustin <aymeric.augustin@m4x.org>
Date: Mon Jan 28 22:22:09 2013 +0100
Removed logging config.
This configuration is applied regardless of the value of LOGGING;
duplicating it in LOGGING is confusing.
commit eac747e848eaed65fd5f6f254f0a7559d856f88f
Author: Aymeric Augustin <aymeric.augustin@m4x.org>
Date: Mon Jan 28 22:05:31 2013 +0100
Enabled the locale middleware by default.
USE_I18N is True by default, and doesn't work well without
LocaleMiddleware.

Author: Aymeric Augustin <aymeric.augustin@m4x.org>
Date: Mon Jan 28 16:54:11 2013 +0100
Avoided misleading TEMPLATE_DEBUG = DEBUG.
According to the docs TEMPLATE_DEBUG works only when DEBUG = True.

Author: Aymeric Augustin <aymeric.augustin@m4x.org>
Date: Mon Jan 28 16:46:25 2013 +0100
Removed STATICFILES_FINDERS/TEMPLATE_LOADERS from default settings file.
Only developers with special needs ever need to change these settings.
commit 574da0eb5bfb4570883756914b4dbd7e20e1f61e
Author: Aymeric Augustin <aymeric.augustin@m4x.org>
Date: Mon Jan 28 16:45:01 2013 +0100
Removed STATICFILES/TEMPLATES_DIRS from default settings file.
The current best practice is to put static files and templates in
applications, for easier testing and deployment.

Author: Aymeric Augustin <aymeric.augustin@m4x.org>

Removed settings related to email reporting from default settings file.
While handy for small scale projects, it isn't exactly a best practice.

Normalized the default application template.
Removed the default test that 1 + 1 = 2, because it's been committed
way too many times, in too many projects.
Added an import of `render` for views, because the first view will
often be:

return render(request, "mysite/home.html")

Updated tutorial 1 for the new project template.
commit 0ecb9f6e2514cfd26a678a280d471433375101a3
Author: Aymeric Augustin <aymeric.augustin@m4x.org>
Date: Tue Jan 29 11:29:13 2013 +0100
Adjusted the default URLconf detection to account for the admin.
It's now enabled by default.

Author: Aymeric Augustin <aymeric.augustin@m4x.org>
Date: Tue Jan 29 10:36:55 2013 +0100
Added security warnings for the most sensitive settings.
commit 718d84bd8ac4a42fb4b28ec93965de32680f091e
Author: Aymeric Augustin <aymeric.augustin@m4x.org>
Date: Mon Jan 28 23:24:06 2013 +0100
Used an absolute path for the SQLite database.
This ensures the settings file works regardless of which directory
django-admin.py / manage.py is invoked from.
BASE_DIR got a +1 from a BDFL and another core dev. It doesn't involve
the concept of a "Django project"; it's just a convenient way to express
relative paths within the source code repository for non-Python files.
Thanks Jacob Kaplan-Moss for the suggestion.
commit 1b559b4bcda622e10909b68fe5cab90db6727dd9
Author: Aymeric Augustin <aymeric.augustin@m4x.org>
Date: Mon Jan 28 23:22:40 2013 +0100
Removed STATIC_ROOT from the default settings template.
It isn't necessary in development, and it confuses beginners to no end.
Thanks Carl Meyer for the suggestion.
commit a55f141a500bb7c9a1bc259bbe1954c13b199671
Author: Aymeric Augustin <aymeric.augustin@m4x.org>
Date: Mon Jan 28 23:21:43 2013 +0100
Removed MEDIA_ROOT/URL from default settings template.
Many sites will never deal with user-uploaded files, and MEDIA_ROOT is
complicated to explain.
Thanks Carl Meyer for the suggestion.
commit 44bf2f2441420fd9429ee9fe1f7207f92dd87e70
Author: Aymeric Augustin <aymeric.augustin@m4x.org>
Date: Mon Jan 28 22:22:09 2013 +0100
Removed logging config.
This configuration is applied regardless of the value of LOGGING;
duplicating it in LOGGING is confusing.

Author: Aymeric Augustin <aymeric.augustin@m4x.org>
Date: Mon Jan 28 22:05:31 2013 +0100

USE_I18N is True by default, and doesn't work well without
LocaleMiddleware.

Author: Aymeric Augustin <aymeric.augustin@m4x.org>
Date: Mon Jan 28 16:54:11 2013 +0100
Avoided misleading TEMPLATE_DEBUG = DEBUG.
According to the docs TEMPLATE_DEBUG works only when DEBUG = True.

Author: Aymeric Augustin <aymeric.augustin@m4x.org>
Date: Mon Jan 28 16:46:25 2013 +0100
Removed STATICFILES_FINDERS/TEMPLATE_LOADERS from default settings file.
Only developers with special needs ever need to change these settings.

Author: Aymeric Augustin <aymeric.augustin@m4x.org>
Date: Mon Jan 28 16:45:01 2013 +0100
Removed STATICFILES/TEMPLATES_DIRS from default settings file.
The current best practice is to put static files and templates in
applications, for easier testing and deployment.

Author: Aymeric Augustin <aymeric.augustin@m4x.org>
Date: Mon Jan 28 16:24:16 2013 +0100
Removed settings related to email reporting from default settings file.
While handy for small scale projects, it isn't exactly a best practice.

commit 50417e51996146f891d08ca8b74dcc736a581932
Author: Aymeric Augustin <aymeric.augustin@m4x.org>
Date: Mon Jan 28 15:51:50 2013 +0100
Normalized the default application template.
Removed the default test that 1 + 1 = 2, because it's been committed
way too many times, in too many projects.
Added an import of `render` for views, because the first view will
often be:
def home(request):
return render(request, "mysite/home.html")
2013-01-28 14:51:50 +00:00
|
|

If the default templates don't suit your tastes, you can use :ref:`custom
|
|
|
|
|
project and app templates <custom-app-and-project-templates>`.

Improved transaction management
|

|
|

|
-------------------------------
|
2013-03-03 14:55:11 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Django's transaction management was overhauled. Database-level autocommit is
|
|
|
|
|
now turned on by default. This makes transaction handling more explicit and
|
|
|
|
|
should improve performance. The existing APIs were deprecated, and new APIs
|
2013-03-13 13:47:48 +00:00
|
|
|
|
were introduced, as described in the :doc:`transaction management docs
|
|
|
|
|
</topics/db/transactions>`.

Persistent database connections
|
2016-01-03 10:56:22 +00:00
|
|
|
|
-------------------------------
|
2013-02-18 10:37:26 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Django now supports reusing the same database connection for several requests.
|
2022-03-11 08:11:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
This avoids the overhead of reestablishing a connection at the beginning of
|
2013-05-09 13:42:14 +00:00
|
|
|
|
each request. For backwards compatibility, this feature is disabled by
|
|
|
|
|
default. See :ref:`persistent-database-connections` for details.

Discovery of tests in any test module
|
2016-01-03 10:56:22 +00:00
|
|
|
|
-------------------------------------
|
2013-05-11 03:08:45 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Django 1.6 ships with a new test runner that allows more flexibility in the
|
|
|
|
|
location of tests. The previous runner
|
|
|
|
|
(``django.test.simple.DjangoTestSuiteRunner``) found tests only in the
|
|
|
|
|
``models.py`` and ``tests.py`` modules of a Python package in
|
|
|
|
|
:setting:`INSTALLED_APPS`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2013-06-03 07:59:20 +00:00
|
|
|
|
The new runner (``django.test.runner.DiscoverRunner``) uses the test discovery
|
2013-06-05 16:55:50 +00:00
|
|
|
|
features built into ``unittest2`` (the version of ``unittest`` in the
|
|
|
|
|
Python 2.7+ standard library, and bundled with Django). With test discovery,
|
|
|
|
|
tests can be located in any module whose name matches the pattern ``test*.py``.
|
2013-05-11 03:08:45 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In addition, the test labels provided to ``./manage.py test`` to nominate
|
|
|
|
|
specific tests to run must now be full Python dotted paths (or directory
|
|
|
|
|
paths), rather than ``applabel.TestCase.test_method_name`` pseudo-paths. This
|
|
|
|
|
allows running tests located anywhere in your codebase, rather than only in
|
|
|
|
|
:setting:`INSTALLED_APPS`. For more details, see :doc:`/topics/testing/index`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This change is backwards-incompatible; see the :ref:`backwards-incompatibility

Time zone aware aggregation

|
|
|
|
|
|
The support for :doc:`time zones </topics/i18n/timezones>` introduced in
|
|
|
|
|
Django 1.4 didn't work well with :meth:`QuerySet.dates()
|
|
|
|
|
<django.db.models.query.QuerySet.dates>`: aggregation was always performed in
|
|
|
|
|
UTC. This limitation was lifted in Django 1.6. Use :meth:`QuerySet.datetimes()
|
|
|
|
|
<django.db.models.query.QuerySet.datetimes>` to perform time zone aware
|
|
|
|
|
aggregation on a :class:`~django.db.models.DateTimeField`.

2013-06-05 16:55:50 +00:00
|
|
|

A new :class:`django.db.models.BinaryField` model field allows storage of raw
|

binary data in the database.

2014-11-26 17:46:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
GeoDjango now provides :doc:`form fields and widgets </ref/contrib/gis/forms-api>`
|
|
|
|
|
for its geo-specialized fields. They are OpenLayers-based by default, but they
|
|
|
|
|
can be customized to use any other JS framework.

``check`` management command added for verifying compatibility

|
|
|
|
|
2013-07-12 16:48:49 +00:00
|
|
|
|
A :djadmin:`check` management command was added, enabling you to verify if your
|
2013-06-14 01:39:02 +00:00
|
|
|
|
current configuration (currently oriented at settings) is compatible with the
|
|
|
|
|
current version of Django.

2013-08-30 06:41:07 +00:00

:meth:`Model.save() <django.db.models.Model.save()>` algorithm changed
|
2016-01-03 10:56:22 +00:00
|
|
|
|
----------------------------------------------------------------------
|
2013-08-30 06:41:07 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The :meth:`Model.save() <django.db.models.Model.save()>` method now
|
|
|
|
|
tries to directly ``UPDATE`` the database if the instance has a primary
|
|
|
|
|
key value. Previously ``SELECT`` was performed to determine if ``UPDATE``
|
|
|
|
|
or ``INSERT`` were needed. The new algorithm needs only one query for
|
|
|
|
|
updating an existing row while the old algorithm needed two. See
|
|
|
|
|
:meth:`Model.save() <django.db.models.Model.save()>` for more details.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In some rare cases the database doesn't report that a matching row was
|
|
|
|
|
found when doing an ``UPDATE``. An example is the PostgreSQL ``ON UPDATE``
|
|
|
|
|
trigger which returns ``NULL``. In such cases it is possible to set
|
|
|
|
|
:attr:`django.db.models.Options.select_on_save` flag to force saving to
|
|
|
|
|
use the old algorithm.

|
--------------
|
2012-11-17 19:24:54 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Authentication backends can raise ``PermissionDenied`` to immediately fail
|
|
|
|
|
the authentication chain.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2013-06-05 16:55:50 +00:00
|
|
|
|
* The ``HttpOnly`` flag can be set on the CSRF cookie with
|
2013-02-07 08:48:08 +00:00
|
|
|
|
:setting:`CSRF_COOKIE_HTTPONLY`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2022-09-24 10:29:58 +00:00
|
|
|
|
* The ``assertQuerysetEqual()`` now checks
|
2014-04-26 14:00:15 +00:00
|
|
|
|
for undefined order and raises :exc:`ValueError` if undefined
|
2013-06-05 16:55:50 +00:00
|
|
|
|
order is spotted. The order is seen as undefined if the given ``QuerySet``
|
2021-02-26 08:10:52 +00:00
|
|
|
|
isn't ordered and there is more than one ordered value to compare against.
|
2012-12-13 11:33:11 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
2013-01-12 08:37:19 +00:00
|
|
|
|
* Added :meth:`~django.db.models.query.QuerySet.earliest` for symmetry with
|
|
|
|
|
:meth:`~django.db.models.query.QuerySet.latest`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2013-02-10 15:15:49 +00:00
|
|
|
|
* In addition to :lookup:`year`, :lookup:`month` and :lookup:`day`, the ORM
|
|
|
|
|
now supports :lookup:`hour`, :lookup:`minute` and :lookup:`second` lookups.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2020-04-30 09:30:11 +00:00
|
|
|
|
* Django now wraps all :pep:`249` exceptions.

Removed redundant exception wrapping.
This is now taken care of by the cursor wrapper.
commit 524bc7345a724bf526bdd2dd1bcf5ede67d6bb5c
Author: Aymeric Augustin <aymeric.augustin@m4x.org>
Date: Tue Feb 26 14:55:10 2013 +0100
Wrapped database exceptions in the base backend.
This covers the most common PEP-249 APIs:
- Connection APIs: close(), commit(), rollback(), cursor()
- Cursor APIs: callproc(), close(), execute(), executemany(),
fetchone(), fetchmany(), fetchall(), nextset().
Fixed #19920.

Author: Aymeric Augustin <aymeric.augustin@m4x.org>
Date: Tue Feb 26 14:53:34 2013 +0100
Added a wrap_database_exception context manager and decorator.
It re-throws backend-specific exceptions using Django's common wrappers.

Fixed #20084 -- Provided option to validate formset max_num on server.
This is provided as a new "validate_max" formset_factory option defaulting to
False, since the non-validating behavior of max_num is longstanding, and there
is certainly code relying on it. (In fact, even the Django admin relies on it
for the case where there are more existing inlines than the given max_num). It
may be that at some point we want to deprecate validate_max=False and
eventually remove the option, but this commit takes no steps in that direction.
This also fixes the DoS-prevention absolute_max enforcement so that it causes a
form validation error rather than an IndexError, and ensures that absolute_max
is always 1000 more than max_num, to prevent surprising changes in behavior
with max_num close to absolute_max.
Lastly, this commit fixes the previous inconsistency between a regular formset
and a model formset in the precedence of max_num and initial data. Previously
in a regular formset, if the provided initial data was longer than max_num, it
was truncated; in a model formset, all initial forms would be displayed
regardless of max_num. Now regular formsets are the same as model formsets; all
initial forms are displayed, even if more than max_num. (But if validate_max is
True, submitting these forms will result in a "too many forms" validation
error!) This combination of behaviors was chosen to keep the max_num validation
simple and consistent, and avoid silent data loss due to truncation of initial
data.
Thanks to Preston for discussion of the design choices.
2013-03-21 06:27:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
* The ``validate_max`` parameter was added to ``BaseFormSet`` and
|
|
|
|
|
:func:`~django.forms.formsets.formset_factory`, and ``ModelForm`` and inline
|
|
|
|
|
versions of the same. The behavior of validation for formsets with
|
|
|
|
|
``max_num`` was clarified. The previously undocumented behavior that
|
|
|
|
|
hardened formsets against memory exhaustion attacks was documented,
|
|
|
|
|
and the undocumented limit of the higher of 1000 or ``max_num`` forms
|
|
|
|
|
was changed so it is always 1000 more than ``max_num``.

|
|
|
|
1.8). To upgrade, you should **first** uninstall PIL, **then** install

Pillow.

``django.contrib.auth.views.logout()``,

|
|
|
|
``django.contrib.auth.views.password_reset_confirm()``,

and ``django.contrib.auth.views.password_change()``, you can now pass
|
2013-05-19 10:57:06 +00:00
|
|
|

URL names and they will be resolved.

|
* Added ``QuerySet`` methods :meth:`~django.db.models.query.QuerySet.first`
|
|
|
|
|
and :meth:`~django.db.models.query.QuerySet.last` which are convenience
|
|
|
|
|
methods returning the first or last object matching the filters. Returns
|
|
|
|

|
* ``GenericForeignKey`` now takes an optional ``for_concrete_model`` argument,
|
|
|
|
|
which when set to ``False`` allows the field to reference proxy models. The
|
|
|
|
|
default is ``True`` to retain the old behavior.

|
|
|
* The :class:`~django.middleware.locale.LocaleMiddleware` now stores the active
|
|

into a number of subclasses, and each will log to a matching named logger
|
|
|
|
|
under the ``django.security`` logging hierarchy. Along with this change,
|
|
|
|
|
a ``handler400`` mechanism and default view are used whenever

2013-06-05 18:55:05 +00:00
|
|
|
|
* :class:`~django.forms.ModelForm` fields can now override error messages

2013-06-18 19:41:36 +00:00
|
|
|
|
* :class:`~django.contrib.admin.ModelAdmin` now preserves filters on the list view
|
|
|
|
|
after creating, editing or deleting an object. It's possible to restore the previous

* Added
|
|
|
|
|
:meth:`FormMixin.get_prefix<django.views.generic.edit.FormMixin.get_prefix>`

|
(which returns
|
|
|
|
|
:attr:`FormMixin.prefix<django.views.generic.edit.FormMixin.prefix>` by

New transaction management model

Behavior changes

2013-03-17 10:05:41 +00:00
|
|
|
|
Database-level autocommit is enabled by default in Django 1.6. While this
|
|
|
|
|
doesn't change the general spirit of Django's transaction management, there
|
2015-04-03 00:35:15 +00:00
|
|
|
|
are a few backwards-incompatibilities.
|

Savepoints and ``assertNumQueries``
|
2016-01-03 10:56:22 +00:00
|
|
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
2013-03-24 12:08:29 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The changes in transaction management may result in additional statements to
|
|
|
|
|
create, release or rollback savepoints. This is more likely to happen with
|
|
|
|
|
SQLite, since it didn't support savepoints until this release.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2013-05-18 22:04:34 +00:00
|
|
|
|
If tests using :meth:`~django.test.TransactionTestCase.assertNumQueries` fail
|
|
|
|
|
because of a higher number of queries than expected, check that the extra
|
|
|
|
|
queries are related to savepoints, and adjust the expected number of queries
|
|
|
|
|
accordingly.

|
|
|
|
2013-03-17 10:05:41 +00:00
|
|
|

In previous versions, database-level autocommit was only an option for
|
2014-03-24 15:42:56 +00:00
|
|
|
|
PostgreSQL, and it was disabled by default. This option is now ignored and can

In order to maintain greater consistency with Python's ``unittest`` module, the
|
|
|
|
|
new test runner (``django.test.runner.DiscoverRunner``) does not automatically
|
2013-05-11 03:08:45 +00:00
|
|
|
|
support some types of tests that were supported by the previous runner:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Tests in ``models.py`` and ``tests/__init__.py`` files will no longer be
|
|
|
|
|
found and run. Move them to a file whose name begins with ``test``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Doctests will no longer be automatically discovered. To integrate doctests in
|
2016-05-08 22:07:43 +00:00
|
|
|
|
your test suite, follow the :ref:`recommendations in the Python documentation
|

<doctest-unittest-api>`.

Django bundles a modified version of the :mod:`doctest` module from the Python
|
2013-05-27 20:41:39 +00:00
|
|
|
|
standard library (in ``django.test._doctest``) and includes some additional
|
|
|
|
|
doctest utilities. These utilities are deprecated and will be removed in Django
|
|
|
|
|
1.8; doctest suites should be updated to work with the standard library's
|
2018-07-31 15:32:38 +00:00
|
|
|
|
doctest module (or converted to ``unittest``-compatible tests).
|
2013-05-11 03:08:45 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you wish to delay updates to your test suite, you can set your
|
|
|
|
|
:setting:`TEST_RUNNER` setting to ``django.test.simple.DjangoTestSuiteRunner``
|
2013-05-27 20:41:39 +00:00
|
|
|
|
to fully restore the old test behavior. ``DjangoTestSuiteRunner`` is deprecated
|
|
|
|
|
but will not be removed from Django until version 1.8.

Removal of ``django.contrib.gis.tests.GeoDjangoTestSuiteRunner`` GeoDjango custom test runner

This is for developers working on the GeoDjango application itself and related
|
|
|
|
|
to the item above about changes in the test runners:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The ``django.contrib.gis.tests.GeoDjangoTestSuiteRunner`` test runner has been
|
|
|
|
|
removed and the standalone GeoDjango tests execution setup it implemented isn't
|
|
|
|
|
supported anymore. To run the GeoDjango tests simply use the new
|
2014-05-11 02:13:50 +00:00
|
|
|
|
``DiscoverRunner`` and specify the ``django.contrib.gis`` app.

Custom user models in tests

2013-10-08 02:32:56 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The introduction of the new test runner has also slightly changed the way that
|
|
|
|
|
test models are imported. As a result, any test that overrides ``AUTH_USER_MODEL``
|
|
|
|
|
to test behavior with one of Django's test user models (
|
2016-01-23 14:42:27 +00:00
|
|
|
|
``django.contrib.auth.tests.custom_user.CustomUser`` and
|
|
|
|
|
``django.contrib.auth.tests.custom_user.ExtensionUser``) must now
|
2013-10-08 02:32:56 +00:00
|
|
|
|
explicitly import the User model in your test module::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
from django.contrib.auth.tests.custom_user import CustomUser
|
|
|
|
|
|

|

|
|
|
# Test code here
|
|
|
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This import forces the custom user model to be registered. Without this import,
|
|
|
|
|
the test will be unable to swap in the custom user model, and you will get an
|
|
|
|
|
error reporting:

Time zone-aware ``day``, ``month``, and ``week_day`` lookups

Django 1.6 introduces time zone support for :lookup:`day`, :lookup:`month`,
|
|
|
|
|
and :lookup:`week_day` lookups when :setting:`USE_TZ` is ``True``. These
|
|
|
|
|
lookups were previously performed in UTC regardless of the current time zone.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This requires :ref:`time zone definitions in the database
|
|
|
|
|
<database-time-zone-definitions>`. If you're using SQLite, you must install
|
|
|
|
|
pytz_. If you're using MySQL, you must install pytz_ and load the time zone
|
|
|
|
|
tables with `mysql_tzinfo_to_sql`_.

Addition of ``QuerySet.datetimes()``

When the :doc:`time zone support </topics/i18n/timezones>` added in Django 1.4
|
|
|
|
|
was active, :meth:`QuerySet.dates() <django.db.models.query.QuerySet.dates>`
|
|
|
|
|
lookups returned unexpected results, because the aggregation was performed in
|
|
|
|
|
UTC. To fix this, Django 1.6 introduces a new API, :meth:`QuerySet.datetimes()
|
|
|
|
|
<django.db.models.query.QuerySet.datetimes>`. This requires a few changes in
|
|
|
|
|
your code.

For the same reason, accessing ``date_list`` in the context of a date-based

2013-03-17 10:05:41 +00:00

|
|
|
|
|
Django 1.6 introduces ``hour``, ``minute``, and ``second`` lookups on
|
|
|
|
|
:class:`~django.db.models.DateTimeField`. If you had model fields called
|
|
|
|
|
``hour``, ``minute``, or ``second``, the new lookups will clash with you field
|
|
|
|
|
names. Append an explicit :lookup:`exact` lookup if this is an issue.

------------------------------------------------
|
2013-03-24 12:47:01 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When a :class:`~django.db.models.BooleanField` doesn't have an explicit
|
|
|
|
|
:attr:`~django.db.models.Field.default`, the implicit default value is
|
|
|
|
|
``None``. In previous version of Django, it was ``False``, but that didn't
|
2013-03-24 13:30:04 +00:00
|
|
|
|
represent accurately the lack of a value.
|
2013-03-24 12:47:01 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Code that relies on the default value being ``False`` may raise an exception
|
|
|
|
|
when saving new model instances to the database, because ``None`` isn't an
|
|
|
|
|
acceptable value for a :class:`~django.db.models.BooleanField`. You should
|
2013-03-24 13:30:04 +00:00
|
|
|
|
either specify ``default=False`` in the field definition, or ensure the field
|
|
|
|
|
is set to ``True`` or ``False`` before saving the object.

Quoting in ``reverse()``

When reversing URLs, Django didn't apply ``django.utils.http.urlquote``
|
2013-03-18 20:52:16 +00:00
|
|
|
|
to arguments before interpolating them in URL patterns. This bug is fixed in
|
|
|
|
|
Django 1.6. If you worked around this bug by applying URL quoting before
|
2015-12-30 15:51:16 +00:00
|
|
|
|
passing arguments to ``reverse()``, this may result in double-quoting. If this
|
|
|
|
|
happens, simply remove the URL quoting from your code. You will also have to
|
|
|
|
|
replace special characters in URLs used in
|
|
|
|
|
:func:`~django.test.SimpleTestCase.assertRedirects` with their encoded
|
|
|
|
|
versions.

Storage of IP addresses in the comments app

-------------------------------------------

2013-02-24 12:20:41 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
2014-03-21 11:05:36 +00:00
|
|
|
|
The comments app now uses a
|
2013-03-17 10:05:41 +00:00
|
|
|
|
``GenericIPAddressField`` for storing commenters' IP addresses, to support
|
|
|
|
|
comments submitted from IPv6 addresses. Until now, it stored them in an
|
|
|
|
|
``IPAddressField``, which is only meant to support IPv4. When saving a comment
|
|
|
|
|
made from an IPv6 address, the address would be silently truncated on MySQL
|
|
|
|
|
databases, and raise an exception on Oracle. You will need to change the
|
|
|
|
|
column type in your database to benefit from this change.

For MySQL, execute this query on your project's database:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: sql
|
2013-02-24 12:20:41 +00:00

|
|
|
|
|
|

ALTER TABLE django_comments MODIFY ip_address VARCHAR(39);
|
|
|
|
|
|
2013-03-17 10:05:41 +00:00
|
|
|
|
For Oracle, execute this query:
|
2013-02-24 12:20:41 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
2013-03-17 10:05:41 +00:00

|
2013-02-24 12:20:41 +00:00

|
|
|
|
|
|
2013-06-05 16:55:50 +00:00
|
|
|
|
If you do not apply this change, the behavior is unchanged: on MySQL, IPv6
|
2013-03-17 10:05:41 +00:00
|
|
|
|
addresses are silently truncated; on Oracle, an exception is generated. No
|
|
|
|
|
database change is needed for SQLite or PostgreSQL databases.

Percent literals in ``cursor.execute`` queries
|
2016-01-03 10:56:22 +00:00

----------------------------------------------
|
2013-04-05 12:15:30 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When you are running raw SQL queries through the
|
|
|
|
|
:ref:`cursor.execute <executing-custom-sql>` method, the rule about doubling
|
|
|
|
|
percent literals (``%``) inside the query has been unified. Past behavior
|
|
|
|
|
depended on the database backend. Now, across all backends, you only need to
|
|
|
|
|
double literal percent characters if you are also providing replacement
|
|
|
|
|
parameters. For example::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# No parameters, no percent doubling
|
|
|
|
|
cursor.execute("SELECT foo FROM bar WHERE baz = '30%'")
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# Parameters passed, non-placeholders have to be doubled
|
|
|
|
|
cursor.execute("SELECT foo FROM bar WHERE baz = '30%%' and id = %s", [self.id])
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``SQLite`` users need to check and update such queries.

Help text of model form fields for ManyToManyField fields

HTML rendering of model form fields corresponding to
|
2014-03-29 14:17:19 +00:00
|
|
|
|
:class:`~django.db.models.ManyToManyField` model fields used to get the
|
|
|
|
|
hard-coded sentence:
|
2013-04-15 13:54:37 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*Hold down "Control", or "Command" on a Mac, to select more than one.*
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(or its translation to the active locale) imposed as the help legend shown along
|
|
|
|
|
them if neither :attr:`model <django.db.models.Field.help_text>` nor :attr:`form
|
2014-03-29 14:17:19 +00:00
|
|
|
|
<django.forms.Field.help_text>` ``help_text`` attributes were specified by the
|
|
|
|
|
user (or this string was appended to any ``help_text`` that was provided).
|
2013-04-15 13:54:37 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
2014-03-29 14:17:19 +00:00
|
|
|
|
Since this happened at the model layer, there was no way to prevent the text
|
|
|
|
|
from appearing in cases where it wasn't applicable such as form fields that
|
|
|
|
|
implement user interactions that don't involve a keyboard and/or a mouse.
|
2013-04-15 13:54:37 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
2014-03-29 14:17:19 +00:00
|
|
|
|
Starting with Django 1.6, as an ad-hoc temporary backward-compatibility
|
|
|
|
|
provision, the logic to add the "Hold down..." sentence has been moved to the
|
|
|
|
|
model form field layer and modified to add the text only when the associated
|
|
|
|
|
widget is :class:`~django.forms.SelectMultiple` or selected subclasses.
|
2013-04-15 13:54:37 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The change can affect you in a backward incompatible way if you employ custom
|
|
|
|
|
model form fields and/or widgets for ``ManyToManyField`` model fields whose UIs
|
|
|
|
|
do rely on the automatic provision of the mentioned hard-coded sentence. These
|
|
|
|
|
form field implementations need to adapt to the new scenario by providing their
|
|
|
|
|
own handling of the ``help_text`` attribute.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Applications that use Django :doc:`model form </topics/forms/modelforms>`
|
|
|
|
|
facilities together with Django built-in form :doc:`fields </ref/forms/fields>`
|
|
|
|
|
and :doc:`widgets </ref/forms/widgets>` aren't affected but need to be aware of
|
|
|
|
|
what's described in :ref:`m2m-help_text-deprecation` below.

QuerySet iteration
|
2016-01-03 10:56:22 +00:00
|
|
|
|
------------------
|
2012-08-01 21:09:26 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The ``QuerySet`` iteration was changed to immediately convert all fetched
|
|
|
|
|
rows to ``Model`` objects. In Django 1.5 and earlier the fetched rows were
|
|
|
|
|
converted to ``Model`` objects in chunks of 100.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Existing code will work, but the amount of rows converted to objects
|
|
|
|
|
might change in certain use cases. Such usages include partially looping
|
|
|
|
|
over a queryset or any usage which ends up doing ``__bool__`` or
|
|
|
|
|
``__contains__``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Notably most database backends did fetch all the rows in one go already in
|
|
|
|
|
1.5.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It is still possible to convert the fetched rows to ``Model`` objects
|
|
|
|
|
lazily by using the :meth:`~django.db.models.query.QuerySet.iterator()`
|
|
|
|
|
method.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2012-06-08 13:32:35 +00:00
|
|
|
|
:meth:`BoundField.label_tag<django.forms.BoundField.label_tag>` now includes the form's :attr:`~django.forms.Form.label_suffix`
|
2016-01-03 10:56:22 +00:00
|
|
|
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
2012-06-08 13:32:35 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is consistent with how methods like
|
|
|
|
|
:meth:`Form.as_p<django.forms.Form.as_p>` and
|
|
|
|
|
:meth:`Form.as_ul<django.forms.Form.as_ul>` render labels.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you manually render ``label_tag`` in your templates:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: html+django
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
{{ form.my_field.label_tag }}: {{ form.my_field }}
|
|
|
|
|
|
2013-07-02 18:14:56 +00:00
|
|
|
|
you'll want to remove the colon (or whatever other separator you may be
|
2012-06-08 13:32:35 +00:00
|
|
|
|
using) to avoid duplicating it when upgrading to Django 1.6. The following
|
|
|
|
|
template in Django 1.6 will render identically to the above template in Django
|
2013-07-02 18:14:56 +00:00
|
|
|
|
1.5, except that the colon will appear inside the ``<label>`` element.
|
2012-06-08 13:32:35 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: html+django
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
{{ form.my_field.label_tag }} {{ form.my_field }}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
will render something like:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: html
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<label for="id_my_field">My Field:</label> <input id="id_my_field" type="text" name="my_field" />
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you want to keep the current behavior of rendering ``label_tag`` without
|
2013-07-26 18:43:46 +00:00
|
|
|
|
the ``label_suffix``, instantiate the form ``label_suffix=''``. You can also
|
|
|
|
|
customize the ``label_suffix`` on a per-field basis using the new
|
|
|
|
|
``label_suffix`` parameter on :meth:`~django.forms.BoundField.label_tag`.

To achieve preserving and restoring list view filters, admin views now
|
2020-03-31 08:37:38 +00:00
|
|
|
|
pass around the ``_changelist_filters`` GET parameter. It's important that you
|
2013-06-18 19:41:36 +00:00
|
|
|
|
account for that change if you have custom admin templates or if your tests
|
|
|
|
|
rely on the previous URLs. If you want to revert to the original behavior you
|
|
|
|
|
can set the
|
|
|
|
|
:attr:`~django.contrib.admin.ModelAdmin.preserve_filters` attribute to ``False``.

``django.contrib.auth`` password reset uses base 64 encoding of ``User`` PK
|
2016-01-03 10:56:22 +00:00
|

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
2013-06-21 20:59:33 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Past versions of Django used base 36 encoding of the ``User`` primary key in
|
|
|
|
|
the password reset views and URLs
|
2017-09-02 23:24:18 +00:00
|
|
|
|
(``django.contrib.auth.views.password_reset_confirm()``). Base 36 encoding is
|
2013-06-21 20:59:33 +00:00
|
|
|
|
sufficient if the user primary key is an integer, however, with the
|
|
|
|
|
introduction of custom user models in Django 1.5, that assumption may no longer
|
|
|
|
|
be true.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2017-09-02 23:24:18 +00:00
|
|
|
|
``django.contrib.auth.views.password_reset_confirm()`` has been modified to
|
2013-06-21 20:59:33 +00:00
|
|
|
|
take a ``uidb64`` parameter instead of ``uidb36``. If you are reversing this
|
|
|
|
|
view, for example in a custom ``password_reset_email.html`` template, be sure
|
|
|
|
|
to update your code.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2017-09-02 23:24:18 +00:00
|
|
|
|
A temporary shim for ``django.contrib.auth.views.password_reset_confirm()``
|
2013-06-21 20:59:33 +00:00
|
|
|
|
that will allow password reset links generated prior to Django 1.6 to continue
|
|
|
|
|
to work has been added to provide backwards compatibility; this will be removed
|
|
|
|
|
in Django 1.7. Thus, as long as your site has been running Django 1.6 for more
|
2021-01-07 12:10:37 +00:00
|
|
|
|
than ``PASSWORD_RESET_TIMEOUT_DAYS``, this change will have no effect.
|
2013-06-21 20:59:33 +00:00
|
|
|
|
If not (for example, if you upgrade directly from Django 1.5 to Django 1.7),
|
|
|
|
|
then any password reset links generated before you upgrade to Django 1.7 or
|
|
|
|
|
later won't work after the upgrade.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In addition, if you have any custom password reset URLs, you will need to
|
|
|
|
|
update them by replacing ``uidb36`` with ``uidb64`` and the dash that follows
|
|
|
|
|
that pattern with a slash. Also add ``_\-`` to the list of characters that may
|
|
|
|
|
match the ``uidb64`` pattern.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For example::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
url(
|
|
|
|
|
r"^reset/(?P<uidb36>[0-9A-Za-z]+)-(?P<token>.+)/$",
|
|
|
|
|
"django.contrib.auth.views.password_reset_confirm",
|
|
|
|
|
name="password_reset_confirm",
|
|
|
|
|
),
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
becomes::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
url(
|
|
|
|
|
r"^reset/(?P<uidb64>[0-9A-Za-z_\-]+)/(?P<token>.+)/$",
|
|
|
|
|
"django.contrib.auth.views.password_reset_confirm",
|
|
|
|
|
name="password_reset_confirm",
|
|
|
|
|
),
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You may also want to add the shim to support the old style reset links. Using
|
|
|
|
|
the example above, you would modify the existing url by replacing
|
|
|
|
|
``django.contrib.auth.views.password_reset_confirm`` with
|
|
|
|
|
``django.contrib.auth.views.password_reset_confirm_uidb36`` and also remove
|
|
|
|
|
the ``name`` argument so it doesn't conflict with the new url::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
url(
|
|
|
|
|
r"^reset/(?P<uidb36>[0-9A-Za-z]+)-(?P<token>.+)/$",
|
|
|
|
|
"django.contrib.auth.views.password_reset_confirm_uidb36",
|
|
|
|
|
),
|
|
|
|
|
|
2016-07-06 19:31:12 +00:00
|
|
|
|
You can remove this URL pattern after your app has been deployed with Django
|
2021-01-07 12:10:37 +00:00
|
|
|
|
1.6 for ``PASSWORD_RESET_TIMEOUT_DAYS``.

Default session serialization switched to JSON
|
2016-01-03 10:56:22 +00:00
|
|
|
|
----------------------------------------------
|
2013-08-22 00:12:19 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Historically, :mod:`django.contrib.sessions` used :mod:`pickle` to serialize
|
|
|
|
|
session data before storing it in the backend. If you're using the :ref:`signed
|
|
|
|
|
cookie session backend<cookie-session-backend>` and :setting:`SECRET_KEY` is
|
2013-09-03 11:48:03 +00:00
|
|
|
|
known by an attacker (there isn't an inherent vulnerability in Django that
|
2020-11-13 21:26:30 +00:00
|
|
|
|
would cause it to leak), the attacker could insert a string into their session
|
2013-08-22 00:12:19 +00:00
|
|
|
|
which, when unpickled, executes arbitrary code on the server. The technique for
|
|
|
|
|
doing so is simple and easily available on the internet. Although the cookie
|
|
|
|
|
session storage signs the cookie-stored data to prevent tampering, a
|
|
|
|
|
:setting:`SECRET_KEY` leak immediately escalates to a remote code execution
|
|
|
|
|
vulnerability.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This attack can be mitigated by serializing session data using JSON rather
|
|
|
|
|
than :mod:`pickle`. To facilitate this, Django 1.5.3 introduced a new setting,
|
|
|
|
|
:setting:`SESSION_SERIALIZER`, to customize the session serialization format.
|
|
|
|
|
For backwards compatibility, this setting defaulted to using :mod:`pickle`
|
|
|
|
|
in Django 1.5.3, but we've changed the default to JSON in 1.6. If you upgrade
|
|
|
|
|
and switch from pickle to JSON, sessions created before the upgrade will be
|
|
|
|
|
lost. While JSON serialization does not support all Python objects like
|
2013-11-18 12:58:43 +00:00
|
|
|
|
:mod:`pickle` does, we highly recommend using JSON-serialized sessions. Be
|
|
|
|
|
aware of the following when checking your code to determine if JSON
|
|
|
|
|
serialization will work for your application:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* JSON requires string keys, so you will likely run into problems if you are
|
|
|
|
|
using non-string keys in ``request.session``.
|
|
|
|
|
* Setting session expiration by passing ``datetime`` values to
|
|
|
|
|
:meth:`~django.contrib.sessions.backends.base.SessionBase.set_expiry` will
|
|
|
|
|
not work as ``datetime`` values are not serializable in JSON. You can use
|
|
|
|
|
integer values instead.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
See the :ref:`session_serialization` documentation for more details.

Object Relational Mapper changes
|
2016-01-03 10:56:22 +00:00
|
|
|
|
--------------------------------
|
2013-11-06 20:11:54 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Django 1.6 contains many changes to the ORM. These changes fall mostly in
|
|
|
|
|
three categories:
|
|
|
|
|
|
2014-12-17 13:01:19 +00:00
|
|
|
|
1. Bug fixes (e.g. proper join clauses for generic relations, query combining,
|
|
|
|
|
join promotion, and join trimming fixes)
|
|
|
|
|
2. Preparation for new features. For example the ORM is now internally ready
|
|
|
|
|
for multicolumn foreign keys.
|
|
|
|
|
3. General cleanup.
|
2013-11-06 20:11:54 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
These changes can result in some compatibility problems. For example, some
|
|
|
|
|
queries will now generate different table aliases. This can affect
|
|
|
|
|
:meth:`QuerySet.extra() <django.db.models.query.QuerySet.extra>`. In addition
|
|
|
|
|
some queries will now produce different results. An example is
|
|
|
|
|
:meth:`exclude(condition) <django.db.models.query.QuerySet.exclude>`
|
|
|
|
|
where the condition is a complex one (referencing multijoins inside
|
|
|
|
|
:class:`Q objects <django.db.models.Q>`). In many cases the affected
|
|
|
|
|
queries didn't produce correct results in Django 1.5 but do now.
|
|
|
|
|
Unfortunately there are also cases that produce different results, but
|
|
|
|
|
neither Django 1.5 nor 1.6 produce correct results.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Finally, there have been many changes to the ORM internal APIs.

Miscellaneous
|
2016-01-03 10:56:22 +00:00
|
|
|
|
-------------
|
2013-03-17 10:05:41 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* The ``django.db.models.query.EmptyQuerySet`` can't be instantiated any more -
|
|
|
|
|
it is only usable as a marker class for checking if
|
|
|
|
|
:meth:`~django.db.models.query.QuerySet.none` has been called:
|
|
|
|
|
``isinstance(qs.none(), EmptyQuerySet)``
|
|
|
|
|
|
2015-04-30 19:39:29 +00:00
|
|
|
|
* If your CSS/JavaScript code used to access HTML input widgets by type, you
|
2013-03-17 10:05:41 +00:00
|
|
|
|
should review it as ``type='text'`` widgets might be now output as
|
|
|
|
|
``type='email'``, ``type='url'`` or ``type='number'`` depending on their
|
|
|
|
|
corresponding field type.
|
2013-02-24 12:20:41 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
2013-04-18 18:38:07 +00:00
|
|
|
|
* Form field's :attr:`~django.forms.Field.error_messages` that contain a
|
|
|
|
|
placeholder should now always use a named placeholder (``"Value '%(value)s' is
|
|
|
|
|
too big"`` instead of ``"Value '%s' is too big"``). See the corresponding
|
|
|
|
|
field documentation for details about the names of the placeholders. The
|
|
|
|
|
changes in 1.6 particularly affect :class:`~django.forms.DecimalField` and
|
|
|
|
|
:class:`~django.forms.ModelMultipleChoiceField`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2013-10-31 16:45:51 +00:00
|
|
|
|
* Some :attr:`~django.forms.Field.error_messages` for
|
2015-01-18 01:42:41 +00:00
|
|
|
|
:class:`~django.forms.IntegerField`, :class:`~django.forms.EmailField`,
|
|
|
|
|
``IPAddressField``, :class:`~django.forms.GenericIPAddressField`, and
|
2013-10-31 16:45:51 +00:00
|
|
|
|
:class:`~django.forms.SlugField` have been suppressed because they
|
|
|
|
|
duplicated error messages already provided by validators tied to the fields.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2013-11-18 17:06:57 +00:00
|
|
|
|
* Due to a change in the form validation workflow,
|
|
|
|
|
:class:`~django.forms.TypedChoiceField` ``coerce`` method should always
|
|
|
|
|
return a value present in the ``choices`` field attribute. That limitation
|
|
|
|
|
should be lift again in Django 1.7.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2013-05-18 10:54:59 +00:00
|
|
|
|
* There have been changes in the way timeouts are handled in cache backends.
|
|
|
|
|
Explicitly passing in ``timeout=None`` no longer results in using the
|
|
|
|
|
default timeout. It will now set a non-expiring timeout. Passing 0 into the
|
|
|
|
|
memcache backend no longer uses the default timeout, and now will
|
|
|
|
|
set-and-expire-immediately the value.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2013-05-18 14:38:11 +00:00
|
|
|
|
* The ``django.contrib.flatpages`` app used to set custom HTTP headers for
|
|
|
|
|
debugging purposes. This functionality was not documented and made caching
|
|
|
|
|
ineffective so it has been removed, along with its generic implementation,
|
|
|
|
|
previously available in ``django.core.xheaders``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2013-05-18 15:43:21 +00:00
|
|
|
|
* The ``XViewMiddleware`` has been moved from ``django.middleware.doc`` to
|
|
|
|
|
``django.contrib.admindocs.middleware`` because it is an implementation
|
|
|
|
|
detail of admindocs, proven not to be reusable in general.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2013-05-28 19:11:41 +00:00
|
|
|
|
* :class:`~django.db.models.GenericIPAddressField` will now only allow
|
|
|
|
|
``blank`` values if ``null`` values are also allowed. Creating a
|
|
|
|
|
``GenericIPAddressField`` where ``blank`` is allowed but ``null`` is not
|
|
|
|
|
will trigger a model validation error because ``blank`` values are always
|
|
|
|
|
stored as ``null``. Previously, storing a ``blank`` value in a field which
|
|
|
|
|
did not allow ``null`` would cause a database exception at runtime.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2015-12-30 15:51:16 +00:00
|
|
|
|
* If a ``NoReverseMatch`` exception is raised from a method when rendering a
|
|
|
|
|
template, it is not silenced. For example, ``{{ obj.view_href }}`` will
|
2016-01-12 01:59:34 +00:00
|
|
|
|
cause template rendering to fail if ``view_href()`` raises
|
2015-12-30 15:51:16 +00:00
|
|
|
|
``NoReverseMatch``. There is no change to the :ttag:`{% url %}<url>` tag, it
|
|
|
|
|
causes template rendering to fail like always when ``NoReverseMatch`` is
|
|
|
|
|
raised.
|
2013-05-30 07:25:58 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
2013-09-09 08:59:47 +00:00
|
|
|
|
* :meth:`django.test.Client.logout` now calls
|
2013-06-04 16:37:44 +00:00
|
|
|
|
:meth:`django.contrib.auth.logout` which will send the
|
|
|
|
|
:func:`~django.contrib.auth.signals.user_logged_out` signal.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2013-06-13 20:07:27 +00:00
|
|
|
|
* :ref:`Authentication views <built-in-auth-views>` are now reversed by name,
|
|
|
|
|
not their locations in ``django.contrib.auth.views``. If you are using the
|
|
|
|
|
views without a ``name``, you should update your ``urlpatterns`` to use
|
2020-05-04 18:33:35 +00:00
|
|
|
|
``django.conf.urls.url()`` with the ``name`` parameter. For example::
|
2013-06-13 20:07:27 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(r"^reset/done/$", "django.contrib.auth.views.password_reset_complete")
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
becomes::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
url(
|
|
|
|
|
r"^reset/done/$",
|
|
|
|
|
"django.contrib.auth.views.password_reset_complete",
|
|
|
|
|
name="password_reset_complete",
|
|
|
|
|
)
|
|
|
|
|
|
2020-03-31 08:37:38 +00:00
|
|
|
|
* :class:`~django.views.generic.base.RedirectView` now has a ``pattern_name``
|
2013-06-14 10:59:26 +00:00
|
|
|
|
attribute which allows it to choose the target by reversing the URL.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2013-06-17 16:06:26 +00:00
|
|
|
|
* In Django 1.4 and 1.5, a blank string was unintentionally not considered to
|
|
|
|
|
be a valid password. This meant
|
|
|
|
|
:meth:`~django.contrib.auth.models.User.set_password()` would save a blank
|
|
|
|
|
password as an unusable password like
|
|
|
|
|
:meth:`~django.contrib.auth.models.User.set_unusable_password()` does, and
|
|
|
|
|
thus :meth:`~django.contrib.auth.models.User.check_password()` always
|
|
|
|
|
returned ``False`` for blank passwords. This has been corrected in this
|
|
|
|
|
release: blank passwords are now valid.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2013-06-19 20:09:40 +00:00
|
|
|
|
* The admin :attr:`~django.contrib.admin.ModelAdmin.changelist_view` previously
|
|
|
|
|
accepted a ``pop`` GET parameter to signify it was to be displayed in a popup.
|
|
|
|
|
This parameter has been renamed to ``_popup`` to be consistent with the rest
|
|
|
|
|
of the admin views. You should update your custom templates if they use the
|
|
|
|
|
previous parameter name.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2013-07-23 20:58:43 +00:00
|
|
|
|
* :meth:`~django.core.validators.validate_email` now accepts email addresses
|
|
|
|
|
with ``localhost`` as the domain.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2016-01-12 01:59:34 +00:00
|
|
|
|
* The new :option:`makemessages --keep-pot` option prevents deleting the
|
2022-03-10 09:18:31 +00:00
|
|
|
|
temporary ``.pot`` file generated before creating the ``.po`` file.
|
2013-08-05 00:18:10 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
2013-10-30 11:46:07 +00:00
|
|
|
|
* The undocumented ``django.core.servers.basehttp.WSGIServerException`` has
|
|
|
|
|
been removed. Use ``socket.error`` provided by the standard library instead.
|
|
|
|
|
This change was also released in Django 1.5.5.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2013-11-07 11:30:04 +00:00
|
|
|
|
* The signature of :meth:`django.views.generic.base.RedirectView.get_redirect_url`
|
|
|
|
|
has changed and now accepts positional arguments as well (``*args, **kwargs``).
|
|
|
|
|
Any unnamed captured group will now be passed to ``get_redirect_url()``
|
|
|
|
|
which may result in a ``TypeError`` if you don't update the signature of your
|
|
|
|
|
custom method.

Transaction management APIs
|
2016-01-03 10:56:22 +00:00

---------------------------
|
2013-03-04 22:26:31 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Transaction management was completely overhauled in Django 1.6, and the
|
|
|
|
|
current APIs are deprecated:
|
|
|
|
|
|
2013-03-06 10:12:24 +00:00
|
|
|
|
- ``django.middleware.transaction.TransactionMiddleware``

- ``django.db.transaction.commit_manually``
|
|
|
|
|
- the ``TRANSACTIONS_MANAGED`` setting

|
Django's comment framework has been deprecated and is no longer supported. It
|
|
|
|
|
will be available in Django 1.6 and 1.7, and removed in Django 1.8. Most users
|
|
|
|
|
will be better served with a custom solution, or a hosted product like Disqus__.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

The code formerly known as ``django.contrib.comments`` is `still available
|

|
|
in an external repository`__.

Support for PostgreSQL versions older than 8.4
|
2016-01-03 10:56:22 +00:00
|
|
|
|
----------------------------------------------
|
2013-03-17 10:45:45 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The end of upstream support periods was reached in December 2011 for
|
|
|
|
|
PostgreSQL 8.2 and in February 2013 for 8.3. As a consequence, Django 1.6 sets
|
|
|
|
|
8.4 as the minimum PostgreSQL version it officially supports.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You're strongly encouraged to use the most recent version of PostgreSQL
|
|
|
|
|
available, because of performance improvements and to take advantage of the
|
|
|
|
|
native streaming replication available in PostgreSQL 9.x.

Changes to :ttag:`cycle` and :ttag:`firstof`
|
2016-01-03 10:56:22 +00:00
|
|
|
|
--------------------------------------------
|
2013-02-23 14:07:21 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The template system generally escapes all variables to avoid XSS attacks.
|
|
|
|
|
However, due to an accident of history, the :ttag:`cycle` and :ttag:`firstof`
|
|
|
|
|
tags render their arguments as-is.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Django 1.6 starts a process to correct this inconsistency. The ``future``
|
|
|
|
|
template library provides alternate implementations of :ttag:`cycle` and
|
|
|
|
|
:ttag:`firstof` that autoescape their inputs. If you're using these tags,
|
2014-11-09 21:10:31 +00:00
|
|
|
|
you're encouraged to include the following line at the top of your templates to
|
2013-02-23 14:07:21 +00:00
|
|
|
|
enable the new behavior:

1.8, the old behavior will be replaced with the new behavior. To ensure

``CacheMiddleware`` and ``UpdateCacheMiddleware`` used to provide a way to
|
|
|
|
|
cache requests only if they weren't made by a logged-in user. This mechanism
|
|
|
|
|
was largely ineffective because the middleware correctly takes into account the
|
|
|
|
|
``Vary: Cookie`` HTTP header, and this header is being set on a variety of
|
|
|
|
|
occasions, such as:
|
2013-05-18 14:10:14 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* accessing the session, or
|
|
|
|
|
* using CSRF protection, which is turned on by default, or
|
|
|
|
|
* using a client-side library which sets cookies, like `Google Analytics`__.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This makes the cache effectively work on a per-session basis regardless of the
|
|
|
|
|
``CACHE_MIDDLEWARE_ANONYMOUS_ONLY`` setting.

Methods that return a ``QuerySet`` such as ``Manager.get_query_set`` or
|
|
|
|
|
``ModelAdmin.queryset`` have been renamed to ``get_queryset``.
|
2013-03-14 19:28:24 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
2014-10-02 10:19:18 +00:00
|
|
|
|
If you are writing a library that implements, for example, a
|
|
|
|
|
``Manager.get_query_set`` method, and you need to support old Django versions,
|
|
|
|
|
you should rename the method and conditionally add an alias with the old name::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
class CustomManager(models.Manager):
|
|
|
|
|
def get_queryset(self):
|
|
|
|
|
pass # ...
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
if django.VERSION < (1, 6):
|
|
|
|
|
get_query_set = get_queryset
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# For Django >= 1.6, models.Manager provides a get_query_set fallback
|
|
|
|
|
# that emits a warning when used.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you are writing a library that needs to call the ``get_queryset`` method and
|
|
|
|
|
must support old Django versions, you should write::
|
|
|
|
|
|
2014-11-24 15:31:41 +00:00
|
|
|
|
get_queryset = (
|
|
|
|
|
some_manager.get_query_set
|
|
|
|
|
if hasattr(some_manager, "get_query_set")
|
|
|
|
|
else some_manager.get_queryset
|
|
|
|
|
)
|
2014-11-24 10:09:39 +00:00
|
|
|
|
return get_queryset() # etc
|
2014-10-02 10:19:18 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
2014-11-24 15:31:41 +00:00
|
|
|
|
In the general case of a custom manager that both implements its own
|
|
|
|
|
``get_queryset`` method and calls that method, and needs to work with older Django
|
|
|
|
|
versions, and libraries that have not been updated yet, it is useful to define
|
|
|
|
|
a ``get_queryset_compat`` method as below and use it internally to your manager::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
class YourCustomManager(models.Manager):
|
|
|
|
|
def get_queryset(self):
|
|
|
|
|
return YourCustomQuerySet() # for example
|
|
|
|
|
|
2015-07-08 09:58:07 +00:00
|
|
|
|
if django.VERSION < (1, 6):
|
|
|
|
|
get_query_set = get_queryset
|
2014-11-24 15:31:41 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
def active(self): # for example
|
|
|
|
|
return self.get_queryset_compat().filter(active=True)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
def get_queryset_compat(self):
|
|
|
|
|
get_queryset = (
|
|
|
|
|
self.get_query_set if hasattr(self, "get_query_set") else self.get_queryset
|
|
|
|
|
)
|
|
|
|
|
return get_queryset()
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This helps to minimize the changes that are needed, but also works correctly in
|
|
|
|
|
the case of subclasses (such as ``RelatedManagers`` from Django 1.5) which might
|
|
|
|
|
override either ``get_query_set`` or ``get_queryset``.

``shortcut`` view and URLconf
|
2016-01-03 10:56:22 +00:00
|
|
|
|
-----------------------------
|
2013-03-14 19:28:24 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The ``shortcut`` view was moved from ``django.views.defaults`` to
|
2013-03-15 08:15:30 +00:00
|
|
|
|
``django.contrib.contenttypes.views`` shortly after the 1.0 release, but the
|
2013-03-14 19:28:24 +00:00
|
|
|
|
old location was never deprecated. This oversight was corrected in Django 1.6
|
|
|
|
|
and you should now use the new location.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The URLconf ``django.conf.urls.shortcut`` was also deprecated. If you're
|
|
|
|
|
including it in an URLconf, simply replace::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(r"^prefix/", include("django.conf.urls.shortcut")),
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
with::
|
|
|
|
|
|
2013-03-15 08:15:30 +00:00
|
|
|
|
(
|

|
|
|
r"^prefix/(?P<content_type_id>\d+)/(?P<object_id>.*)/$",
|
|
|
|
|
"django.contrib.contenttypes.views.shortcut",
|
|
|
|
|
),

``ModelForm`` without ``fields`` or ``exclude``
|
2016-01-03 10:56:22 +00:00
|
|
|
|
-----------------------------------------------
|
2013-02-21 21:56:55 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Previously, if you wanted a :class:`~django.forms.ModelForm` to use all fields on
|
|
|
|
|
the model, you could simply omit the ``Meta.fields`` attribute, and all fields
|
|
|
|
|
would be used.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This can lead to security problems where fields are added to the model and,
|
|
|
|
|
unintentionally, automatically become editable by end users. In some cases,
|
|
|
|
|
particular with boolean fields, it is possible for this problem to be completely
|
|
|
|
|
invisible. This is a form of `Mass assignment vulnerability
|
2015-08-08 10:02:32 +00:00
|
|
|
|
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_assignment_vulnerability>`_.
|
2013-02-21 21:56:55 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
2013-06-05 16:55:50 +00:00
|
|
|
|
For this reason, this behavior is deprecated, and using the ``Meta.exclude``
|
2013-02-21 21:56:55 +00:00
|
|
|
|
option is strongly discouraged. Instead, all fields that are intended for
|
|
|
|
|
inclusion in the form should be listed explicitly in the ``fields`` attribute.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If this security concern really does not apply in your case, there is a shortcut
|
|
|
|
|
to explicitly indicate that all fields should be used - use the special value
|
|
|
|
|
``"__all__"`` for the fields attribute::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
class MyModelForm(ModelForm):
|
|
|
|
|
class Meta:
|
|
|
|
|
fields = "__all__"
|
|
|
|
|
model = MyModel
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you have custom ``ModelForms`` that only need to be used in the admin, there
|
|
|
|
|
is another option. The admin has its own methods for defining fields
|
|
|
|
|
(``fieldsets`` etc.), and so adding a list of fields to the ``ModelForm`` is
|
|
|
|
|
redundant. Instead, simply omit the ``Meta`` inner class of the ``ModelForm``,
|
|
|
|
|
or omit the ``Meta.model`` attribute. Since the ``ModelAdmin`` subclass knows
|
|
|
|
|
which model it is for, it can add the necessary attributes to derive a
|
2013-06-05 16:55:50 +00:00
|
|
|
|
functioning ``ModelForm``. This behavior also works for earlier Django
|
2013-02-21 21:56:55 +00:00
|
|
|
|
versions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``UpdateView`` and ``CreateView`` without explicit fields
|
2016-01-03 10:56:22 +00:00
|

---------------------------------------------------------
|
2013-02-21 21:56:55 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The generic views :class:`~django.views.generic.edit.CreateView` and
|
|
|
|
|
:class:`~django.views.generic.edit.UpdateView`, and anything else derived from
|
|
|
|
|
:class:`~django.views.generic.edit.ModelFormMixin`, are vulnerable to the
|
|
|
|
|
security problem described in the section above, because they can automatically
|
|
|
|
|
create a ``ModelForm`` that uses all fields for a model.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For this reason, if you use these views for editing models, you must also supply
|
2013-09-13 13:34:12 +00:00
|
|
|
|
the ``fields`` attribute (new in Django 1.6), which is a list of model fields
|
|
|
|
|
and works in the same way as the :class:`~django.forms.ModelForm`
|
2014-11-09 21:31:53 +00:00
|
|
|
|
``Meta.fields`` attribute. Alternatively, you can set the ``form_class``
|
2013-09-13 13:34:12 +00:00
|
|
|
|
attribute to a ``ModelForm`` that explicitly defines the fields to be used.
|
|
|
|
|
Defining an ``UpdateView`` or ``CreateView`` subclass to be used with a model
|
|
|
|
|
but without an explicit list of fields is deprecated.
