Django 3.0 release notes - UNDER DEVELOPMENT
============================================
*Expected December 2019*
Welcome to Django 3.0!
These release notes cover the :ref:`new features <whats-new-3.0>`, as well as
some :ref:`backwards incompatible changes <backwards-incompatible-3.0>` you'll
want to be aware of when upgrading from Django 2.2 or earlier. We've
:ref:`dropped some features<removed-features-3.0>` that have reached the end of
their deprecation cycle, and we've :ref:`begun the deprecation process for
some features <deprecated-features-3.0>`.
See the :doc:`/howto/upgrade-version` guide if you're updating an existing
project.
Python compatibility
====================
Django 3.0 supports Python 3.6, 3.7, and 3.8. We **highly recommend** and only
officially support the latest release of each series.
The Django 2.2.x series is the last to support Python 3.5.
Third-party library support for older version of Django
=======================================================
Following the release of Django 3.0, we suggest that third-party app authors
drop support for all versions of Django prior to 2.2. At that time, you should
be able to run your package's tests using ``python -Wd`` so that deprecation
warnings appear. After making the deprecation warning fixes, your app should be
compatible with Django 3.0.

.. _backwards-incompatible-3.0:
Backwards incompatible changes in 3.0
=====================================
Database backend API
--------------------
This section describes changes that may be needed in third-party database
backends.
* The second argument of ``DatabaseIntrospection.get_geometry_type()`` is now
the row description instead of the column name.
2018-12-28 08:03:30 +08:00
* ``DatabaseIntrospection.get_field_type()`` may no longer return tuples.
* If the database can create foreign keys in the same SQL statement that adds a
field, add ``SchemaEditor.sql_create_column_inline_fk`` with the appropriate
SQL; otherwise, set ``DatabaseFeatures.can_create_inline_fk = False``.
* ``DatabaseFeatures.can_return_id_from_insert`` and
``can_return_ids_from_bulk_insert`` are renamed to
``can_return_columns_from_insert`` and ``can_return_rows_from_bulk_insert``.
:mod:`django.contrib.gis`
-------------------------
* Supported for PostGIS 2.1 is removed.
* Support for SpatiaLite 4.1 and 4.2 is removed.
Dropped support for PostgreSQL 9.4
----------------------------------
Upstream support for PostgreSQL 9.4 ends in December 2019. Django 3.0 supports
PostgreSQL 9.5 and higher.
Removed private Python 2 compatibility APIs
-------------------------------------------
While Python 2 support was removed in Django 2.0, some private APIs weren't
removed from Django so that third party apps could continue using them until
the Python 2 end-of-life.
Since we expect apps to drop Python 2 compatibility when adding support for
Django 3.0, we're removing these APIs at this time.
* ``django.test.utils.str_prefix()`` - Strings don't have 'u' prefixes in
Python 3.
* ``django.test.utils.patch_logger()`` - Use
:meth:`unittest.TestCase.assertLogs` instead.
* ``django.utils.lru_cache.lru_cache()`` - Alias of
:func:`functools.lru_cache`.
* ``django.utils.decorators.available_attrs()`` - This function returns
``functools.WRAPPER_ASSIGNMENTS``.
* ``django.utils._os.abspathu()`` - Alias of :func:`os.path.abspath`.
* ``django.utils._os.upath()`` and ``npath()`` - These functions do nothing on
Python 3.
* ``django.utils.six`` - Remove usage of this vendored library or switch to
`six <https://pypi.org/project/six/>`_.
* ``django.utils.encoding.python_2_unicode_compatible()`` - Alias of
``six.python_2_unicode_compatible()``.

==========================
Miscellaneous
-------------
* ``django.utils.http.urlquote()``, ``urlquote_plus()``, ``urlunquote()``, and

aliases for: :func:`urllib.parse.quote`, :func:`~urllib.parse.quote_plus`,
:func:`~urllib.parse.unquote`, and :func:`~urllib.parse.unquote_plus`.
