Django 3.2 release notes - UNDER DEVELOPMENT
============================================
*Expected April 2021*
Welcome to Django 3.2!
These release notes cover the :ref:`new features <whats-new-3.2>`, as well as
some :ref:`backwards incompatible changes <backwards-incompatible-3.2>` you'll
want to be aware of when upgrading from Django 3.1 or earlier. We've
:ref:`begun the deprecation process for some features
<deprecated-features-3.2>`.
See the :doc:`/howto/upgrade-version` guide if you're updating an existing
project.
Django 3.2 is designated as a :term:`long-term support release
<Long-term support release>`. It will receive security updates for at least
three years after its release. Support for the previous LTS, Django 2.2, will
end in April 2022.
Python compatibility
====================
Django 3.2 supports Python 3.6, 3.7, and 3.8. We **highly recommend** and only
officially support the latest release of each series.
.. _whats-new-3.2:
What's new in Django 3.2
========================
Minor features
--------------
:mod:`django.contrib.admin`
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* :attr:`.ModelAdmin.search_fields` now allows searching against quoted phrases
with spaces.
:mod:`django.contrib.admindocs`
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* ...
:mod:`django.contrib.auth`
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* The default iteration count for the PBKDF2 password hasher is increased from
216,000 to 260,000.
* The default variant for the Argon2 password hasher is changed to Argon2id.
``memory_cost`` and ``parallelism`` are increased to 102,400 and 8
respectively to match the ``argon2-cffi`` defaults.
Increasing the ``memory_cost`` pushes the required memory from 512 KB to 100
MB. This is still rather conservative but can lead to problems in memory
constrained environments. If this is the case, the existing hasher can be
subclassed to override the defaults.
:mod:`django.contrib.contenttypes`
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* ...
:mod:`django.contrib.gis`
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* The :meth:`.GDALRaster.transform` method now supports
:class:`~django.contrib.gis.gdal.SpatialReference`.
:mod:`django.contrib.messages`
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* The :class:`~django.contrib.postgres.operations.CreateExtension` operation
now checks that the extension already exists in the database and skips the
migration if so.
:mod:`django.contrib.postgres`
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* The new :attr:`.ExclusionConstraint.include` attribute allows creating
covering exclusion constraints on PostgreSQL 12+.
* The new :attr:`.ExclusionConstraint.opclasses` attribute allows setting
PostgreSQL operator classes.
* The new :attr:`.JSONBAgg.ordering` attribute determines the ordering of the
aggregated elements.
:mod:`django.contrib.redirects`
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* ...
:mod:`django.contrib.sessions`
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* ...
:mod:`django.contrib.sitemaps`
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* ...
:mod:`django.contrib.sites`
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* ...
:mod:`django.contrib.staticfiles`
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* ...
:mod:`django.contrib.syndication`
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* ...

Forms
~~~~~
* The new ``absolute_max`` argument for :func:`.formset_factory`,
:func:`.inlineformset_factory`, and :func:`.modelformset_factory` allows
customizing the maximum number of forms that can be instantiated when
supplying ``POST`` data. See :ref:`formsets-absolute-max` for more details.
* The new ``can_delete_extra`` argument for :func:`.formset_factory`,
:func:`.inlineformset_factory`, and :func:`.modelformset_factory` allows
removal of the option to delete extra forms. See
:attr:`~.BaseFormSet.can_delete_extra` for more information.
Generic Views
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* The ``week_format`` attributes of
:class:`~django.views.generic.dates.WeekMixin` and
:class:`~django.views.generic.dates.WeekArchiveView` now support the
``'%V'`` ISO 8601 week format.
Internationalization
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* ...
Logging
~~~~~~~
* ...
Management Commands
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* :djadmin:`loaddata` now supports fixtures stored in XZ archives (``.xz``) and
LZMA archives (``.lzma``).
* :djadmin:`makemigrations` can now be called without an active database
connection. In that case, check for a consistent migration history is
skipped.
* :attr:`.BaseCommand.requires_system_checks` now supports specifying a list of
tags. System checks registered in the chosen tags will be checked for errors
prior to executing the command. In previous versions, either all or none
of the system checks were performed.
Migrations
~~~~~~~~~~
* The new ``Operation.migration_name_fragment`` property allows providing a
filename fragment that will be used to name a migration containing only that
operation.
* Migrations now support serialization of pure and concrete path objects from
:mod:`pathlib`, and :class:`os.PathLike` instances.
Models
~~~~~~
* The new ``no_key`` parameter for :meth:`.QuerySet.select_for_update()`,
supported on PostgreSQL, allows acquiring weaker locks that don't block the
creation of rows that reference locked rows through a foreign key.
* :class:`When() <django.db.models.expressions.When>` expression now allows
using the ``condition`` argument with ``lookups``.
* The new :attr:`.Index.include` and :attr:`.UniqueConstraint.include`
attributes allow creating covering indexes and covering unique constraints on
PostgreSQL 11+.
* The new :attr:`.UniqueConstraint.opclasses` attribute allows setting
PostgreSQL operator classes.
* The :meth:`.QuerySet.update` method now respects the ``order_by()`` clause on
MySQL and MariaDB.
* :class:`FilteredRelation() <django.db.models.FilteredRelation>` now supports
nested relations.
* The ``of`` argument of :meth:`.QuerySet.select_for_update()` is now allowed
on MySQL 8.0.1+.
Requests and Responses
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* ...
Security
~~~~~~~~
* ...
Serialization
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* The new :ref:`JSONL <serialization-formats-jsonl>` serializer allows using
the JSON Lines format with :djadmin:`dumpdata` and :djadmin:`loaddata`. This
can be useful for populating large databases because data is loaded line by
line into memory, rather than being loaded all at once.
Signals
~~~~~~~
* ...
Templates
~~~~~~~~~
* ...
Tests
~~~~~
* Objects assigned to class attributes in :meth:`.TestCase.setUpTestData` are
now isolated for each test method. Such objects are now required to support
creating deep copies with :py:func:`copy.deepcopy`. Assigning objects which
don't support ``deepcopy()`` is deprecated and will be removed in Django 4.1.
* :class:`~django.test.runner.DiscoverRunner` now enables
:py:mod:`faulthandler` by default. This can be disabled by using the
:option:`test --no-faulthandler` option.
* :class:`~django.test.Client` now preserves the request query string when
following 307 and 308 redirects.
* The new :meth:`.TestCase.captureOnCommitCallbacks` method captures callback
functions passed to :func:`transaction.on_commit()
<django.db.transaction.on_commit>` in a list. This allows you to test such
callbacks without using the slower :class:`.TransactionTestCase`.

.. _backwards-incompatible-3.2:
Backwards incompatible changes in 3.2
=====================================
Database backend API
--------------------
This section describes changes that may be needed in third-party database
backends.
* The new ``DatabaseFeatures.introspected_field_types`` property replaces these
features:
* ``can_introspect_autofield``
* ``can_introspect_big_integer_field``
* ``can_introspect_binary_field``
* ``can_introspect_decimal_field``
* ``can_introspect_duration_field``
* ``can_introspect_ip_address_field``
* ``can_introspect_positive_integer_field``
* ``can_introspect_small_integer_field``
* ``can_introspect_time_field``
* ``introspected_big_auto_field_type``
* ``introspected_small_auto_field_type``
* ``introspected_boolean_field_type``
* To enable support for covering indexes (:attr:`.Index.include`) and covering
unique constraints (:attr:`.UniqueConstraint.include`), set
``DatabaseFeatures.supports_covering_indexes`` to ``True``.
:mod:`django.contrib.gis`
-------------------------
* Support for PostGIS 2.2 is removed.
Dropped support for PostgreSQL 9.5
----------------------------------
Upstream support for PostgreSQL 9.5 ends in February 2021. Django 3.2 supports
PostgreSQL 9.6 and higher.
Dropped support for MySQL 5.6
-----------------------------
The end of upstream support for MySQL 5.6 is April 2021. Django 3.2 supports
MySQL 5.7 and higher.
Miscellaneous
-------------
* The undocumented ``SpatiaLiteOperations.proj4_version()`` method is renamed
to ``proj_version()``.
* Minified JavaScript files are no longer included with the admin. If you
require these files to be minified, consider using a third party app or
external build tool. The minified vendored JavaScript files packaged with the
admin (e.g. :ref:`jquery.min.js <contrib-admin-jquery>`) are still included.
* :attr:`.ModelAdmin.prepopulated_fields` no longer strips English stop words,
such as ``'a'`` or ``'an'``.
* :func:`~django.utils.text.slugify` now removes leading and trailing dashes
and underscores.
* The :tfilter:`intcomma` and :tfilter:`intword` template filters no longer
depend on the :setting:`USE_L10N` setting.
* Support for ``argon2-cffi`` < 19.1.0 is removed.
* The cache keys no longer includes the language when internationalization is
disabled (``USE_I18N = False``) and localization is enabled
(``USE_L10N = True``). After upgrading to Django 3.2 in such configurations,
the first request to any previously cached value will be a cache miss.
* ``ForeignKey.validate()`` now uses
:attr:`~django.db.models.Model._base_manager` rather than
:attr:`~django.db.models.Model._default_manager` to check that related
instances exist.
.. _deprecated-features-3.2:
Features deprecated in 3.2
==========================
Miscellaneous
-------------
* Assigning objects which don't support creating deep copies with
:py:func:`copy.deepcopy` to class attributes in
:meth:`.TestCase.setUpTestData` is deprecated.
* Using a boolean value in :attr:`.BaseCommand.requires_system_checks` is
deprecated. Use ``'__all__'`` instead of ``True``, and ``[]`` (an empty list)
instead of ``False``.
* The ``whitelist`` argument and ``domain_whitelist`` attribute of
:class:`~django.core.validators.EmailValidator` are deprecated. Use
``allowlist`` instead of ``whitelist``, and ``domain_allowlist`` instead of
``domain_whitelist``. You may need to rename ``whitelist`` in existing
migrations.
