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
for the reviews.
Add support for Oracle, fix an issue with the repr of RawQuerySet,
add tests and documentations. Also added a 'supports_paramstyle_pyformat'
database feature, True by default, False for SQLite.
Thanks Donald Stufft for review of documentation.
This is useful:
- to force a rollback on the exit of an atomic block without having to
raise and catch an exception;
- to prevent a rollback after handling an exception manually.
A decorator is easier to apply to CBVs. Backwards compatibility isn't an
issue here, except for people running on a recent clone of master.
Fixed a few minor problems in the transactions docs while I was there.
Previously, depending on the database backend or the cursor type,
you'd need to double the percent signs in the query before passing
it to cursor.execute. Now cursor.execute consistently need percent
doubling whenever params argument is not None (placeholder substitution
will happen).
Thanks Thomas Güttler for the report and Walter Doekes for his work
on the patch.
Thanks Anssi for haggling until I implemented this.
This change alleviates the need for atomic_if_autocommit. When
autocommit is disabled for a database, atomic will simply create and
release savepoints, and not commit anything. This honors the contract of
not doing any transaction management.
This change also makes the hack to allow using atomic within the legacy
transaction management redundant.
None of the above will work with SQLite, because of a flaw in the design
of the sqlite3 library. This is a known limitation that cannot be lifted
without unacceptable side effects eg. triggering arbitrary commits.
Replaced them with per-database options, for proper multi-db support.
Also toned down the recommendation to tie transactions to HTTP requests.
Thanks Jeremy for sharing his experience.
