The check introduced in 4ce433e was too strict in real life. The poorly
implemented bots this patch attempted to ignore are sloppy when it comes
to http vs. https.
make_bytes() assumed that if the Content-Encoding header is set, then
everything had already been dealt with bytes-wise, but in a streaming
situation this was not necessarily the case.
make_bytes() is only called when necessary when working with a
StreamingHttpResponse iterable, but by that point the middleware has
added the Content-Encoding header and thus make_bytes() tried to call
bytes(value) (and dies). If it had been a normal HttpResponse,
make_bytes() would have been called when the content was set, well
before the middleware set the Content-Encoding header.
This commit removes the special casing when Content-Encoding is set,
allowing unicode strings to be encoded during the iteration before they
are e.g. gzipped. This behaviour was added a long time ago for #4969 and
it doesn't appear to be necessary any more, as everything is correctly
made into bytes at the appropriate places.
Two new tests, to show that supplying non-ASCII characters to a
StreamingHttpResponse works fine normally, and when passed through the
GZip middleware (the latter dies without the change to make_bytes()).
Removes the test with a nonsense Content-Encoding and Unicode input - if
this were to happen, it can still be encoded as bytes fine.
It prevented the GZipMiddleware from compressing some data types even on
more recent version of IE where the corresponding bug was fixed.
Thanks Aaron Cannon for the report and Tim Graham for the review.
This (nearly) completes the work to isolate all the test modules from
each other. This is now more important as importing models from another
module will case PendingDeprecationWarnings if those modules are not in
INSTALLED_APPS. The only remaining obvious dependencies are:
- d.c.auth depends on d.c.admin (because of the is_admin flag to some
views), but this is not so important and d.c.admin is in
always_installed_apps
- test_client_regress depends on test_client. Eventually these should
become a single module, as the split serves no useful purpose.
