Django 2.2 release notes - UNDER DEVELOPMENT
============================================
*Expected April 2019*
Welcome to Django 2.2!
These release notes cover the :ref:`new features <whats-new-2.2>`, as well as
some :ref:`backwards incompatible changes <backwards-incompatible-2.2>` you'll
want to be aware of when upgrading from Django 2.1 or earlier. We've
:ref:`begun the deprecation process for some features
<deprecated-features-2.2>`.
See the :doc:`/howto/upgrade-version` guide if you're updating an existing
project.
Django 2.2 is designated as a :term:`long-term support release`. It will
receive security updates for at least three years after its release. Support
for the previous LTS, Django 1.11, will end in April 2020.
Python compatibility
====================
Django 2.2 supports Python 3.5, 3.6, and 3.7. We **highly recommend** and only
officially support the latest release of each series.
.. _whats-new-2.2:
What's new in Django 2.2
========================
Check Constraints
-----------------
The new :class:`~django.db.models.CheckConstraint` class enables adding custom
database constraints. Constraints are added to models using the
:attr:`Meta.constraints <django.db.models.Options.constraints>` option.

.. _backwards-incompatible-2.2:
Backwards incompatible changes in 2.2
=====================================
Database backend API
--------------------
* Third-party database backends must implement support for table check
constraints or set ``DatabaseFeatures.supports_table_check_constraints`` to
``False``.
2018-05-17 22:17:53 +08:00
:mod:`django.contrib.gis`
-------------------------
2018-06-11 20:33:09 +08:00
* Support for GDAL 1.9 and 1.10 is dropped.
2018-05-17 22:17:53 +08:00
Miscellaneous
-------------
* On SQLite, ``PositiveIntegerField`` and ``PositiveSmallIntegerField`` now
include a check constraint to prevent negative values in the database. If you
have existing invalid data and run a migration that recreates a table, you'll
see ``CHECK constraint failed``.
2018-05-17 22:17:53 +08:00
* For consistency with WSGI servers, the test client now sets the
``Content-Length`` header to a string rather than an integer.
2018-05-17 22:17:53 +08:00
.. _deprecated-features-2.2:
Features deprecated in 2.2
==========================
Miscellaneous
-------------
* ``django.utils.timezone.FixedOffset`` is deprecated in favor of
:class:`datetime.timezone`.
