The old names were downright confusing. Some seemed to mean the opposite
of what the class actually did.
The new names follow a consistent nomenclature:
(Forward|Reverse)(ManyToOne|OneToOne|ManyToMany)Descriptor.
I mentioned combinations that do not exist in the docstring in order to
help people who would search for them in the code base.
Added update_or_create to RelatedManager, ManyRelatedManager and
GenericRelatedObjectManager.
Added missing get_or_create to GenericRelatedObjectManager.
Generic Foreign Keys can't be used as lhs in lookups for historical
reasons. Django 1.6 gave a FieldDoesNotExist exception when using GFKs
as lhs in lookups, but due to regression caused by lookup refactor patch
(20bab2cf9d) the exception type was
changed to AttributeError.
It might be a good idea to add support for gfk__exact and gfk__in lookups
later on.
Thanks to glicerinu@gmail.com for the report. The code in this commit
was written by Tim Graham.
Since assignments on M2M or reverse FK descriptors is composed of a `clear()`,
followed by an `add()`, `clear()` could potentially affect the value of the
assigned queryset before the `add()` step; pre-evaluating it solves the problem.
This patch fixes the issue for ForeignRelatedObjectsDescriptor,
ManyRelatedObjectsDescriptor, and ReverseGenericRelatedObjectsDescriptor.
It completes 6cb6e1 which addressed ReverseManyRelatedObjectsDescriptor.
GenericRelation now supports an optional related_query_name argument.
Setting related_query_name adds a relation from the related object back to
the content type for filtering, ordering and other query operations.
Thanks to Loic Bistuer for spotting a couple of important issues in
his review.
Allows a `GenericForeignKey` to reference proxy models. The default
for `for_concrete_model` is `True` to keep backwards compatibility.
Also added the analog `for_concrete_model` kwarg to
`generic_inlineformset_factory` to provide an API at the form level.
This also updates all dependent functionality, including modelform_factory
and modelformset_factory, and the generic views `ModelFormMixin`,
`CreateView` and `UpdateView` which gain a new `fields` attribute.
