Altered query string customization for backends vendors
The new way is trying to call first method 'as_' + connection.vendor.
If that doesn't exist, then call as_sql().
Also altered how lookup registration is done. There is now
RegisterLookupMixin class that is used by Field, Extract and
sql.Aggregate. This allows one to register lookups for extracts and
aggregates in the same way lookup registration is done for fields.

Initial implementation of custom lookups
Since it triggers imports, it shouldn't be done lightly.
This commit adds a public API for doing it explicitly, django.setup(),
and does it automatically when using manage.py and wsgi.py.
Returning None on errors required unpythonic error checking and was
inconsistent with get_app_config.
get_model was a private API until the previous commit, but given that it
was certainly used in third party software, the change is explained in
the release notes.
Applied the same change to get_registered_model, which is a new private
API introduced during the recent refactoring.
ContentTypes are only created for installed applications, and I could
make a case for not returning a model that isn't installed any more.
The check for stale ContentTypes in update_contenttypes doesn't use
model_class.
ModelSignal actually needs get_registered_model since the lookup happens
at import time. I took this opportunity to perform a small refactoring.
It was called _populate() before I renamed it to populate(). Since it
has been superseded by populate_models() there's no reason to keep it.
Removed the can_postpone argument of load_app() as it was only used by
populate(). It's a private API and there's no replacement. Simplified
load_app() accordingly. Then new version behaves exactly like the old
one even though it's much shorter.
Since applications that aren't installed no longer have an application
configuration, it is now always True in practice.
Provided an abstraction to temporarily add or remove applications as
several tests messed with app_config.installed to achieve this effect.
For now this API is _-prefixed because it looks dangerous.
Got rid of AppConfig._stub. As a side effect, app_cache.app_configs now
only contains entries for applications that are in INSTALLED_APPS, which
is a good thing and will allow dramatic simplifications (which I will
perform in the next commit). That required adjusting all methods that
iterate on app_configs without checking the "installed" flag, hence the
large changes in get_model[s].
Introduced AppCache.all_models to store models:
- while the app cache is being populated and a suitable app config
object to register models isn't available yet;
- for applications that aren't in INSTALLED_APPS since they don't have
an app config any longer.
Replaced get_model(seed_cache=False) by registered_model() which can be
kept simple and safe to call at any time, and removed the seed_cache
argument to get_model[s]. There's no replacement for that private API.
Allowed non-master app caches to go through populate() as it is now
safe to do so. They were introduced in 1.7 so backwards compatibility
isn't a concern as long as the migrations framework keeps working.
Used the information from the app cache instead of creating a duplicate
based on INSTALLED_APPS.
Model._meta.installed is no longer writable. It was a rather sketchy way
to alter private internals anyway.
Several parts of Django call get_apps() with a comment along this lines
of "this has the side effect of calling _populate()". I fail to see how
this is better than just calling populate()!
Since the original ones in django.db.models.loading were kept only for
backwards compatibility, there's no need to recreate them. However, many
internals of Django still relied on them.
They were also imported in django.db.models. They never appear in the
documentation, except a quick mention of get_models and get_app in the
1.2 release notes to document an edge case in GIS. I don't think that
makes them a public API.
This commit doesn't change the overall amount of global state but
clarifies that it's tied to the app_cache object instead of hiding it
behind half a dozen functions.
The `remove()` and `clear()` methods of the related managers created by
`ForeignKey`, `GenericForeignKey`, and `ManyToManyField` suffered from a
number of issues. Some operations ran multiple data modifying queries without
wrapping them in a transaction, and some operations didn't respect default
filtering when it was present (i.e. when the default manager on the related
model implemented a custom `get_queryset()`).
Fixing the issues introduced some backward incompatible changes:
- The implementation of `remove()` for `ForeignKey` related managers changed
from a series of `Model.save()` calls to a single `QuerySet.update()` call.
The change means that `pre_save` and `post_save` signals aren't called anymore.
- The `remove()` and `clear()` methods for `GenericForeignKey` related
managers now perform bulk delete so `Model.delete()` isn't called anymore.
- The `remove()` and `clear()` methods for `ManyToManyField` related
managers perform nested queries when filtering is involved, which may
or may not be an issue depending on the database and the data itself.

Thanks Anssi Kääriäinen and Tim Graham for the reviews.
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.
This commit introduced a new class JoinPromoter that can be used to
abstract away join promotion problems for complex filter conditions.
Query._add_q() and Query.combine() now use the new class.
Also, added a lot of comments about why join promotion is done the way
it is.
Thanks to Tim Graham for original report and testing the changes, and
for Loic Bistuer for review.
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
The typo could have consequences in exceptional cases, but I didn't
figure out a way to actually produce such a case, so not tests.
Report & patch by Michael Manfre.
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()

Fixed TransactionManagementError in tests.
Previous commit introduced an additional check to prevent running
queries in transactions that will be rolled back, which triggered a few
failures in the tests. In practice using transaction.atomic instead of
the low-level savepoint APIs was enough to fix the problems.

Prevented running queries in transactions that will be rolled back.
This avoids a counter-intuitive behavior in an edge case on databases
with non-atomic transaction semantics.
It prevents using savepoint_rollback() inside an atomic block without
calling set_rollback(False) first, which is backwards-incompatible in
tests.

commit 8e3db393853c7ac64a445b66e57f3620a3fde7b0

Replaced manual savepoints by atomic blocks.
This ensures the rollback flag is handled consistently in internal APIs.
Previously, if a database request spanned a related object manager, the
first manager encountered would cause a request to the router, and this
would bind all subsequent queries to the same database returned by the
router. Unfortunately, the first router query would be performed using
a read request to the router, resulting in bad routing information being
used if the subsequent query was actually a write.
This change defers the call to the router until the final query is acutally
made.
It includes a small *BACKWARDS INCOMPATIBILITY* on an edge case - see the
release notes for details.
Thanks to Paul Collins (@paulcollinsiii) for the excellent debugging
work and patch.
The use of OrderedDict (even an empty one) was surprisingly slow. By
initializing OrderedDict only when needed it is possible to save
non-trivial amount of computing time (Model.save() is around 30% faster
for example).
This commit targetted sql.Query only, there are likely other places
which could use similar optimizations.
The option can be used to force pre 1.6 style SELECT on save behaviour.
This is needed in case the database returns zero updated rows even if
there is a matching row in the DB. One such case is PostgreSQL update
trigger that returns NULL.

Thanks to Tim Graham for docs review.
In cases where the same connection (from model A to model B along the
same field) was needed multiple times in a select_related query, the
join setup code mistakenly reused an existing join.
Cleaned up the internal implementation of m2m fields by removing
related.py _get_fk_val(). The _get_fk_val() was doing the wrong thing
if asked for the foreign key value on foreign key to parent model's
primary key when child model had different primary key field.
If LEFT JOINs are required for correct results, then trimming the join
can lead to incorrect results. Consider case:
TBL A: ID | TBL B: ID A_ID
1 1 1
2
Now A.order_by('b__a') did use a join to B, and B's a_id column. This
was seen to contain the same value as A's id, and so the join was
trimmed. But this wasn't correct as the join is LEFT JOIN, and for row
A.id = 2 the B.a_id column is NULL.

At the same time promote_joins()'s uncoditional flag is gone, it isn't
needed for anything any more.
All Promise objects were passed to force_text() deep in ORM query code.
Not only does this make it difficult or impossible for developers to
prevent or alter this behaviour, but it is also wrong for non-text
fields.
This commit changes `Field.get_prep_value()` from a no-op to one that
resolved Promise objects. All subclasses now call super() method first
to ensure that they have a real value to work with.
It has been possible to use models of wrong type in related field
lookups. For example pigs__in=[a_duck] has worked. Changes to
ForeignObject broke that.
It might be a good idea to restrict the model types usable in lookups.
This should be done intentionally, not accidentally and without any
consideration for deprecation path.
Additionally this patch solves the orthogonal problem that specialized
`QuerySet` like `ValuesQuerySet` didn't inherit from the current `QuerySet`
type. This wasn't an issue until now because we didn't officially support
custom `QuerySet` but it became necessary with the introduction of this new
feature.
Thanks aaugustin, akaariai, carljm, charettes, mjtamlyn, shaib and timgraham

In the combination of .values().aggregate() the aggregate_select_mask
didn't include the aggregates added. This resulted in bogus query.
Thanks to Trac alias debanshuk for report.
In the intervening years, RelatedField has become less of a hack (though it still is one). Anyone who wants to can re-instate the comment, but please add more details.
Add support for Oracle, fix an issue with the repr of RawQuerySet,

database feature, True by default, False for SQLite.
Thanks Donald Stufft for review of documentation.
Those methods were only used by `contrib.admin` internally and exclusively
related to `contrib.auth`. Since they were undocumented but used
in the wild the raised deprecation warning point to an also undocumented
alternative that lives in `contrib.auth`.
Also did some PEP8 and other cleanups in the affected modules.
There were a couple of places which used Query.join() directly. By
using setup_joins() in these places the code is more DRY, and in
addition there is no need to directly call field.get_joining_columns()
unless the field is the given join_field from get_path_info(). This
makes it easier to make sure a ForeignObject subclass generates joins
correctly in all cases.
