Reorganized the MySQLdb section into a "MySQL DB API Drivers" section that describes both MySQLdb and MySQL Connector/Python. Included description of the Django adaptors for these DB API drivers.
Corrected LANGUAGES documentation on how to translate language
names. Now using django.utils.translation.ugettext_lazy instead
of a dummy gettext() function.
Thanks to Salvatore for the report.
This patch introduces the Prefetch object which allows customizing prefetch
operations.
This enables things like filtering prefetched relations, calling select_related
from a prefetched relation, or prefetching the same relation multiple times
with different querysets.
When a Prefetch instance specifies a to_attr argument, the result is stored
in a list rather than a QuerySet. This has the fortunate consequence of being
significantly faster. The preformance improvement is due to the fact that we
save the costly creation of a QuerySet instance.
Thanks @akaariai for the original patch and @bmispelon and @timgraham
for the reviews.
Used pyinotify (when available) to replace the "pool-every-one-second"
mechanism in `django.utils.autoreload`.
Thanks Chris Lamb and Pascal Hartig for work on the patch.
``ModelAdmin.view_on_site`` defines wether to show a link to the object on the
admin detail page. If ``True``, cleverness (i.e. ``Model.get_absolute_url``) is
used to get the url. If it's a callable, the callable is called with the object
as the only parameter. If ``False``, not link is displayed.
With the aim of maitaining backwards compatibility, ``True`` is the default.
Previously, when collecting static files, the files would receive permission
from FILE_UPLOAD_PERMISSIONS. Now, there's an option to give different
permission from uploaded files permission by subclassing any of the static
files storage classes and setting the file_permissions_mode parameter.
Thanks dblack at atlassian.com for the suggestion.
Thanks dan at dlo.me for the initial patch.
- Added __pow__ and __rpow__ to ExpressionNode
- Added oracle and mysql specific power expressions
- Added used-defined power function for sqlite
select_related('foo').select_related('bar') is now equivalent to
select_related('foo', 'bar').
Also reworded docs to recommend select_related(*fields) over select_related()
`HttpRequest.scheme` is `https` if `settings.SECURE_PROXY_SSL_HEADER` is
appropriately set and falls back to `HttpRequest._get_scheme()` (a hook
for subclasses to implement) otherwise.
`WSGIRequest._get_scheme()` makes use of the `wsgi.url_scheme` WSGI
environ variable to determine the request scheme.
`HttpRequest.is_secure()` simply checks if `HttpRequest.scheme` is
`https`.
This provides a way to check the current scheme in templates, for example.
It also allows us to deal with other schemes.
Thanks nslater for the suggestion.
Added ``--natural-foreign`` and ``--natural-primary`` options and
deprecated the ``--natural`` option to the ``dumpdata`` management
command.
Added ``use_natural_foreign_keys`` and ``use_natural_primary_keys``
arguments and deprecated the ``use_natural_keys`` argument to
``django.core.serializers.Serializer.serialize()``.
Thanks SmileyChris for the suggestion.
Added docs/internals/mailing-lists.txt documenting the use of django's
mailing lists. All references across docs changed to point to this page.
The referencing makes use of substitution because there's no way to make
a :ref: link in a non-inline fashion in Sphinx. It also makes use of
rst_epilog Sphinx conf for making this substitutions across all the
docs.
