1.4
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
See the :doc:`Django 1.2 release notes</releases/1.2>` for more details on
|
||||
these changes.
|
||||
|
||||
* ``CsrfResponseMiddleware`` and ``CsrfMiddleware`` will be removed. Use
|
||||
the ``{% csrf_token %}`` template tag inside forms to enable CSRF
|
||||
protection. ``CsrfViewMiddleware`` remains and is enabled by default.
|
||||
|
||||
* The old imports for CSRF functionality (``django.contrib.csrf.*``),
|
||||
which moved to core in 1.2, will be removed.
|
||||
|
||||
* The ``django.contrib.gis.db.backend`` module will be removed in favor
|
||||
of the specific backends.
|
||||
|
||||
* ``SMTPConnection`` will be removed in favor of a generic Email backend API.
|
||||
|
||||
* The many to many SQL generation functions on the database backends
|
||||
will be removed.
|
||||
|
||||
* The ability to use the ``DATABASE_*`` family of top-level settings to
|
||||
define database connections will be removed.
|
||||
|
||||
* The ability to use shorthand notation to specify a database backend
|
||||
(i.e., ``sqlite3`` instead of ``django.db.backends.sqlite3``) will be
|
||||
removed.
|
||||
|
||||
* The ``get_db_prep_save``, ``get_db_prep_value`` and
|
||||
``get_db_prep_lookup`` methods will have to support multiple databases.
|
||||
|
||||
* The ``Message`` model (in ``django.contrib.auth``), its related
|
||||
manager in the ``User`` model (``user.message_set``), and the
|
||||
associated methods (``user.message_set.create()`` and
|
||||
``user.get_and_delete_messages()``), will be removed. The
|
||||
:doc:`messages framework </ref/contrib/messages>` should be used
|
||||
instead. The related ``messages`` variable returned by the
|
||||
auth context processor will also be removed. Note that this
|
||||
means that the admin application will depend on the messages
|
||||
context processor.
|
||||
|
||||
* Authentication backends will need to support the ``obj`` parameter for
|
||||
permission checking. The ``supports_object_permissions`` attribute
|
||||
will no longer be checked and can be removed from custom backends.
|
||||
|
||||
* Authentication backends will need to support the ``AnonymousUser`` class
|
||||
being passed to all methods dealing with permissions. The
|
||||
``supports_anonymous_user`` variable will no longer be checked and can be
|
||||
removed from custom backends.
|
||||
|
||||
* The ability to specify a callable template loader rather than a
|
||||
``Loader`` class will be removed, as will the ``load_template_source``
|
||||
functions that are included with the built in template loaders for
|
||||
backwards compatibility.
|
||||
|
||||
* ``django.utils.translation.get_date_formats()`` and
|
||||
``django.utils.translation.get_partial_date_formats()``. These functions
|
||||
will be removed; use the locale-aware
|
||||
``django.utils.formats.get_format()`` to get the appropriate formats.
|
||||
|
||||
* In ``django.forms.fields``, the constants: ``DEFAULT_DATE_INPUT_FORMATS``,
|
||||
``DEFAULT_TIME_INPUT_FORMATS`` and
|
||||
``DEFAULT_DATETIME_INPUT_FORMATS`` will be removed. Use
|
||||
``django.utils.formats.get_format()`` to get the appropriate
|
||||
formats.
|
||||
|
||||
* The ability to use a function-based test runner will be removed,
|
||||
along with the ``django.test.simple.run_tests()`` test runner.
|
||||
|
||||
* The ``views.feed()`` view and ``feeds.Feed`` class in
|
||||
``django.contrib.syndication`` will be removed. The class-based view
|
||||
``views.Feed`` should be used instead.
|
||||
|
||||
* ``django.core.context_processors.auth``. This release will
|
||||
remove the old method in favor of the new method in
|
||||
``django.contrib.auth.context_processors.auth``.
|
||||
|
||||
* The ``postgresql`` database backend will be removed, use the
|
||||
``postgresql_psycopg2`` backend instead.
|
||||
|
||||
* The ``no`` language code will be removed and has been replaced by the
|
||||
``nb`` language code.
|
||||
|
||||
* Authentication backends will need to define the boolean attribute
|
||||
``supports_inactive_user`` until version 1.5 when it will be assumed that
|
||||
all backends will handle inactive users.
|
||||
|
||||
* ``django.db.models.fields.XMLField`` will be removed. This was
|
||||
deprecated as part of the 1.3 release. An accelerated deprecation
|
||||
schedule has been used because the field hasn't performed any role
|
||||
beyond that of a simple ``TextField`` since the removal of oldforms.
|
||||
All uses of ``XMLField`` can be replaced with ``TextField``.
|
||||
|
||||
* The undocumented ``mixin`` parameter to the ``open()`` method of
|
||||
``django.core.files.storage.Storage`` (and subclasses) will be removed.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
1.5
|

---
|
||||
|
||||
See the :doc:`Django 1.3 release notes</releases/1.3>` for more details on
|
||||
these changes.
|
||||
|
||||
* Starting Django without a :setting:`SECRET_KEY` will result in an exception
|
||||
rather than a ``DeprecationWarning``. (This is accelerated from the usual
|
||||
deprecation path; see the :doc:`Django 1.4 release notes</releases/1.4>`.)
|
||||
|
||||
* The ``mod_python`` request handler will be removed. The ``mod_wsgi``
|
||||
handler should be used instead.
|
||||
|
||||
* The ``template`` attribute on :class:`~django.test.Response`
|
||||
objects returned by the :ref:`test client <test-client>` will be removed.
|
||||
The :attr:`~django.test.Response.templates` attribute should be
|
||||
used instead.
|
||||
|
||||
* The ``django.test.simple.DjangoTestRunner`` will be removed.
|
||||
Instead use a unittest-native class. The features of the
|
||||
``django.test.simple.DjangoTestRunner`` (including fail-fast and
|
||||
Ctrl-C test termination) can currently be provided by the unittest-native
|
||||
:class:`~unittest.TextTestRunner`.
|
||||
|
||||
* The undocumented function
|
||||
``django.contrib.formtools.utils.security_hash`` will be removed,
|
||||
instead use ``django.contrib.formtools.utils.form_hmac``
|
||||
|
||||
* The function-based generic view modules will be removed in favor of their
|
||||
class-based equivalents, outlined :doc:`here
|
||||
</topics/class-based-views/index>`.
|
||||
|
||||
* The ``django.core.servers.basehttp.AdminMediaHandler`` will be
|
||||
removed. In its place use
|
||||
``django.contrib.staticfiles.handlers.StaticFilesHandler``.
|
||||
|
||||
* The template tags library ``adminmedia`` and the template tag ``{%
|
||||
admin_media_prefix %}`` will be removed in favor of the generic static files
|
||||
handling. (This is faster than the usual deprecation path; see the
|
||||
:doc:`Django 1.4 release notes</releases/1.4>`.)
|
||||
|
||||
* The :ttag:`url` and :ttag:`ssi` template tags will be
|
||||
modified so that the first argument to each tag is a template variable, not
|
||||
an implied string. In 1.4, this behavior is provided by a version of the tag
|
||||
in the ``future`` template tag library.
|
||||
|
||||
* The ``reset`` and ``sqlreset`` management commands will be removed.
|
||||
|
||||
* Authentication backends will need to support an inactive user
|
||||
being passed to all methods dealing with permissions.
|
||||
The ``supports_inactive_user`` attribute will no longer be checked
|
||||
and can be removed from custom backends.
|
||||
|
||||
* :meth:`~django.contrib.gis.geos.GEOSGeometry.transform` will raise
|
||||
a :class:`~django.contrib.gis.geos.GEOSException` when called
|
||||
on a geometry with no SRID value.
|
||||
|
||||
* ``django.http.CompatCookie`` will be removed in favor of
|
||||
``django.http.SimpleCookie``.
|
||||
|
||||
* ``django.core.context_processors.PermWrapper`` and
|
||||
``django.core.context_processors.PermLookupDict`` will be removed in
|
||||
favor of the corresponding
|
||||
``django.contrib.auth.context_processors.PermWrapper`` and
|
||||
``django.contrib.auth.context_processors.PermLookupDict``, respectively.
|
||||
|
||||
* The :setting:`MEDIA_URL` or :setting:`STATIC_URL` settings will be
|
||||
required to end with a trailing slash to ensure there is a consistent
|
||||
way to combine paths in templates.
|
||||
|
||||
* ``django.db.models.fields.URLField.verify_exists`` will be removed. The
|
||||
feature was deprecated in 1.3.1 due to intractable security and
|
||||
performance issues and will follow a slightly accelerated deprecation
|
||||
timeframe.
|
||||
|
||||
* Translations located under the so-called *project path* will be ignored during
|
||||
the translation building process performed at runtime. The
|
||||
:setting:`LOCALE_PATHS` setting can be used for the same task by including the
|
||||
filesystem path to a ``locale`` directory containing non-app-specific
|
||||
translations in its value.
|
||||
|
||||
* The Markup contrib app will no longer support versions of Python-Markdown
|
||||
library earlier than 2.1. An accelerated timeline was used as this was
|
||||
a security related deprecation.
|
||||
|
||||
* The ``CACHE_BACKEND`` setting will be removed. The cache backend(s) should be
|
||||
specified in the :setting:`CACHES` setting.
|
||||
|
||||
1.6
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
See the :doc:`Django 1.4 release notes</releases/1.4>` for more details on
|
||||
these changes.
|
||||
|
||||
* ``django.contrib.databrowse`` will be removed.
|
||||
|
||||
* ``django.contrib.localflavor`` will be removed following an accelerated
|
||||
deprecation.
|
||||
|
||||
* ``django.contrib.markup`` will be removed following an accelerated
|
||||
deprecation.
|
||||
|
||||
* The compatibility modules ``django.utils.copycompat`` and
|
||||
``django.utils.hashcompat`` as well as the functions
|
||||
``django.utils.itercompat.all`` and ``django.utils.itercompat.any`` will
|
||||
be removed. The Python builtin versions should be used instead.
|
||||
|
||||
* The ``csrf_response_exempt`` and ``csrf_view_exempt`` decorators will
|
||||
be removed. Since 1.4 ``csrf_response_exempt`` has been a no-op (it
|
||||
returns the same function), and ``csrf_view_exempt`` has been a
|
||||
synonym for ``django.views.decorators.csrf.csrf_exempt``, which should
|
||||
be used to replace it.
|
||||
|
||||
* The ``django.core.cache.backends.memcached.CacheClass`` backend
|
||||
was split into two in Django 1.3 in order to introduce support for
|
||||
PyLibMC. The historical ``CacheClass`` will be removed in favor of
|
||||
``django.core.cache.backends.memcached.MemcachedCache``.
|
||||
|
||||
* The UK-prefixed objects of ``django.contrib.localflavor.uk`` will only
|
||||
be accessible through their GB-prefixed names (GB is the correct
|
||||
ISO 3166 code for United Kingdom).
|
||||
|
||||
* The ``IGNORABLE_404_STARTS`` and ``IGNORABLE_404_ENDS`` settings have been
|
||||
superseded by :setting:`IGNORABLE_404_URLS` in the 1.4 release. They will be
|
||||
removed.
|
||||
|
||||
* The :doc:`form wizard </ref/contrib/formtools/form-wizard>` has been
|
||||
refactored to use class-based views with pluggable backends in 1.4.
|
||||
The previous implementation will be removed.
|
||||
|
||||
* Legacy ways of calling
|
||||
:func:`~django.views.decorators.cache.cache_page` will be removed.
|
||||
|
||||
* The backward-compatibility shim to automatically add a debug-false
|
||||
filter to the ``'mail_admins'`` logging handler will be removed. The
|
||||
:setting:`LOGGING` setting should include this filter explicitly if
|
||||
it is desired.
|
||||
|
||||
* The builtin truncation functions ``django.utils.text.truncate_words()``
|
||||
and ``django.utils.text.truncate_html_words()`` will be removed in
|
||||
favor of the ``django.utils.text.Truncator`` class.
|
||||
|
||||
* The :class:`~django.contrib.gis.geoip.GeoIP` class was moved to
|
||||
:mod:`django.contrib.gis.geoip` in 1.4 -- the shortcut in
|
||||
:mod:`django.contrib.gis.utils` will be removed.
|
||||
|
||||
* ``django.conf.urls.defaults`` will be removed. The functions
|
||||
:func:`~django.conf.urls.include`, :func:`~django.conf.urls.patterns` and
|
||||
:func:`~django.conf.urls.url` plus :data:`~django.conf.urls.handler404`,
|
||||
:data:`~django.conf.urls.handler500`, are now available through
|
||||
:mod:`django.conf.urls` .
|
||||
|
||||
* The functions ``setup_environ()`` and ``execute_manager()`` will be removed
|
||||
from :mod:`django.core.management`. This also means that the old (pre-1.4)
|
||||
style of :file:`manage.py` file will no longer work.
|
||||
|
||||
* Setting the ``is_safe`` and ``needs_autoescape`` flags as attributes of
|
||||
template filter functions will no longer be supported.
|
||||
|
||||
* The attribute ``HttpRequest.raw_post_data`` was renamed to ``HttpRequest.body``
|
||||
in 1.4. The backward compatibility will be removed --
|
||||
``HttpRequest.raw_post_data`` will no longer work.
|
||||
|
||||
* The value for the ``post_url_continue`` parameter in
|
||||
``ModelAdmin.response_add()`` will have to be either ``None`` (to redirect
|
||||
to the newly created object's edit page) or a pre-formatted url. String
|
||||
formats, such as the previous default ``'../%s/'``, will not be accepted any
|
||||
more.
