These cached properies were causing problems with pickling, and in
addition they were confusingly defined: field.rel.model._meta was
not the same as field.rel.opts.
Instead users should use field.rel.related_model._meta inplace of
field.rel.opts, and field.rel.to._meta in place of field.rel.to_opts.
As suggested by Anssi. This has the slightly strange side effect of
passing the expression to Expression.convert_value has the expression
passed back to it, but it allows more complex patterns of expressions.
During direct assignment, evaluating the iterable before the transaction
is started avoids leaving the transaction dirty if an exception is raised.
This is slightly more wasteful but probably not enough to warrant a change
of behavior.
Thanks Anssi for the feedback. Refs #6707.
The method is mainly intended for use with UUIDField. For UUIDField we
want to call the field's default even when primary key value is
explicitly set to None to match the behavior of AutoField.
Thanks to Marc Tamlyn and Tim Graham for review.
An explicit `__exact` lookup in the related managers filters
was interpreted as a reference to a foreign `exact` field.

Several issues resolved here, following from a report that a base_field
of GenericIpAddressField was failing.
We were using get_prep_value instead of get_db_prep_value in ArrayField
which was bypassing any extra modifications to the value being made in
the base field's get_db_prep_value. Changing this broke datetime
support, so the postgres backend has gained the relevant operation
methods to send dates/times/datetimes directly to the db backend instead
of casting them to strings. Similarly, a new database feature has been
added allowing the uuid to be passed directly to the backend, as we do
with timedeltas.
On the other side, psycopg2 expects an Inet() instance for IP address
fields, so we add a value_to_db_ipaddress method to wrap the strings on
postgres. We also have to manually add a database adapter to psycopg2,
as we do not wish to use the built in adapter which would turn
everything into Inet() instances.
Thanks to smclenithan for the report.
These refactorings making overriding some text based lookup names on
other fields (specifically `contains`) much cleaner. It also removes a
bunch of duplication in the contrib.postgres lookups.
Refactored compiler SELECT, GROUP BY and ORDER BY generation.
While there, also refactored select_related() implementation
(get_cached_row() and get_klass_info() are now gone!).
Made get_db_converters() method work on expressions instead of
internal_type. This allows the backend converters to target
specific expressions if need be.
Added query.context, this can be used to set per-query state.
Also changed the signature of database converters. They now accept
context as an argument.
Use INTERVAL DAY(9) TO SECOND(6) for Durationfield on Oracle rather than
storing as a NUMBER(19) of microseconds.
There are issues with cx_Oracle which require some extra data
manipulation in the database backend when constructing queries, but it
handles the conversion back to timedelta objects cleanly.
Thanks to Shai for the review.
A field for storing periods of time - modeled in Python by timedelta. It
is stored in the native interval data type on PostgreSQL and as a bigint
of microseconds on other backends.
Also includes significant changes to the internals of time related maths
in expressions, including the removal of DateModifierNode.
Thanks to Tim and Josh in particular for reviews.
