Previously, saving a model instance to a non-related field (in
particular a FloatField) would silently convert the model to an Integer
(the pk) and save it. This is undesirable behaviour, and likely to cause
confusion so the validatio has been hardened.
Thanks to @PirosB3 for the patch and @jarshwah for the review.
Change database test settings from "TEST_"-prefixed entries in the
database settings dictionary to setting in a dictionary that is itself
an entry "TEST" in the database settings.
Refs #21775
Thanks Josh Smeaton for review.
Also took the opportunity to slightly refactor gettext options
so as to ease customization by subclassing the command.
Thanks Michal Čihař for the report and initial patch.
GenericRelation now supports an optional related_query_name argument.
Setting related_query_name adds a relation from the related object back to
the content type for filtering, ordering and other query operations.
Thanks to Loic Bistuer for spotting a couple of important issues in
his review.
This feature allows the default `TIMEOUT` Cache argument to be set to `None`,
so that cache instances can set a non-expiring key as the default,
instead of using the default value of 5 minutes.
Previously, this was possible only by passing `None` as an argument to
the set() method of objects of type `BaseCache` (and subtypes).
The original patch for custom prefetches didn't allow usage of custom
queryset for single valued relations (along ForeignKey or OneToOneKey).
Allowing these enables calling performance oriented queryset methods like
select_related or defer/only.
Thanks @akaariai and @timgraham for the reviews. Refs #17001.
Allows custom behavior for setting initial form data in ModelAdmin.
By default, initial data is set via GET params. The new method allows
this behavior to be overridden.
Thanks egasimus for the suggestion.
Introduced a number of settings to configure max-age, path, and domain
for the language cookie: LANGUAGE_COOKIE_AGE, LANGUAGE_COOKIE_PATH and
LANGUAGE_COOKIE_DOMAIN.
Thanks sahid for the suggestion.
By removing the 'supported' keyword from the detection methods and only relying
on a cached settings.LANGUAGES, the speed of said methods has been improved;
around 4x raw performance. This allows us to stop checking Python's incomplete
list of locales, and rely on a less restrictive regular expression for
accepting certain locales.
HTTP Accept-Language is defined as being case-insensitive, based on this fact
extra performance improvements have been made; it wouldn't make sense to
check for case differences.
