Django 2.2 release notes - UNDER DEVELOPMENT
|
|
============================================
|
|
|
|
*Expected April 2019*
|
|
|
|
Welcome to Django 2.2!
|
|
|
|
These release notes cover the :ref:`new features <whats-new-2.2>`, as well as
|
|
some :ref:`backwards incompatible changes <backwards-incompatible-2.2>` you'll
|
|
want to be aware of when upgrading from Django 2.1 or earlier. We've
|
|
:ref:`begun the deprecation process for some features
|
|
<deprecated-features-2.2>`.
|
|
|
|
See the :doc:`/howto/upgrade-version` guide if you're updating an existing
|
|
project.
|
|
|
|
Django 2.2 is designated as a :term:`long-term support release`. It will
|
|
receive security updates for at least three years after its release. Support
|
|
for the previous LTS, Django 1.11, will end in April 2020.
|
|
|
|
Python compatibility
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
Django 2.2 supports Python 3.5, 3.6, and 3.7. We **highly recommend** and only
|
|
officially support the latest release of each series.

|
|
|
Backwards incompatible changes in 2.2
|
|
=====================================
|
|
|
|
Database backend API
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
* Third-party database backends must implement support for table check
|
|
constraints or set ``DatabaseFeatures.supports_table_check_constraints`` to
|
|
``False``.
|
|
|
|
* Third party database backends must implement support for ignoring
|
|
constraints or uniqueness errors while inserting or set
|
|
``DatabaseFeatures.supports_ignore_conflicts`` to ``False``.
|
|
|
|
:mod:`django.contrib.gis`
|
|
-------------------------
|
|
|
|
* Support for GDAL 1.9 and 1.10 is dropped.
|
|
|
|
Miscellaneous
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
* On SQLite, ``PositiveIntegerField`` and ``PositiveSmallIntegerField`` now
|
|
include a check constraint to prevent negative values in the database. If you
|
|
have existing invalid data and run a migration that recreates a table, you'll
|
|
see ``CHECK constraint failed``.
|
|
|
|
* For consistency with WSGI servers, the test client now sets the
|
|
``Content-Length`` header to a string rather than an integer.
|
|
|
|
* The return value of :func:`django.utils.text.slugify` is no longer marked as
|
|
HTML safe.
|
|
|
|
.. _deprecated-features-2.2:
|
|
|
|
Features deprecated in 2.2
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
Miscellaneous
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
* ``django.utils.timezone.FixedOffset`` is deprecated in favor of
|
|
:class:`datetime.timezone`.
