``contrib`` packages
====================
Django aims to follow Python's `"batteries included" philosophy`_. It ships
with a variety of extra, optional tools that solve common Web-development
problems.
This code lives in ``django/contrib`` in the Django distribution. This document
gives a rundown of the packages in ``contrib``, along with any dependencies
those packages have.
.. admonition:: Note
For most of these add-ons -- specifically, the add-ons that include either
models or template tags -- you'll need to add the package name (e.g.,
``'django.contrib.redirects'``) to your :setting:`INSTALLED_APPS` setting
and re-run ``manage.py migrate``.

Added array field support for PostgreSQL. The first part of django.contrib.postgres, including model and two form fields for arrays of other data types. This commit is formed of the following work: Add shell of postgres app and test handling. First draft of array fields. Use recursive deconstruction. Stop creating classes at lookup time. Add validation and size parameter. Add contained_by lookup. Add SimpleArrayField for forms. Add SplitArrayField (mainly for admin). Fix prepare_value for SimpleArrayField. Stop using MultiValueField and MultiWidget. They don't play nice with flexible sizes. Add basics of admin integration. Missing: - Tests - Fully working js Add reference document for django.contrib.postgres.fields.ArrayField. Various performance and style tweaks. Fix internal docs link, formalise code snippets. Remove the admin code for now. It needs a better way of handing JS widgets in the admin as a whole before it is easy to write. In particular there are serious issues involving DateTimePicker when used in an array. Add a test for nested array fields with different delimiters. This will be a documented pattern so having a test for it is useful. Add docs for SimpleArrayField. Add docs for SplitArrayField. Remove admin related code for now. definition -> description Fix typo. Py3 errors. Avoid using regexes where they're not needed. Allow passing tuples by the programmer. Add some more tests for multidimensional arrays. Also fix slicing as much as it can be fixed. Simplify SplitArrayWidget's data loading. If we aren't including the variable size one, we don't need to search like this.
