This document outlines when various pieces of Django will be removed, following
|
|
|
-their deprecation, as per the :ref:`Django deprecation policy
|
|
|
-<internal-release-deprecation-policy>`
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- * 1.3
|
|
|
- * ``AdminSite.root()``. This release will remove the old method for
|
|
|
- hooking up admin URLs. This has been deprecated since the 1.1
|
|
|
- release.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- * Authentication backends need to define the boolean attributes
|
|
|
- ``supports_object_permissions`` and ``supports_anonymous_user``.
|
|
|
- The old backend style is deprecated since the 1.2 release.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- * The :mod:`django.contrib.gis.db.backend` module, including the
|
|
|
- ``SpatialBackend`` interface, is deprecated since the 1.2 release.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- * 1.4
|
|
|
- * ``CsrfResponseMiddleware``. This has been deprecated since the 1.2
|
|
|
- release, in favor of the template tag method for inserting the CSRF
|
|
|
- token. ``CsrfMiddleware``, which combines ``CsrfResponseMiddleware``
|
|
|
- and ``CsrfViewMiddleware``, is also deprecated.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- * The old imports for CSRF functionality (``django.contrib.csrf.*``),
|
|
|
- which moved to core in 1.2, will be removed.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- * ``SMTPConnection``. The 1.2 release deprecated the ``SMTPConnection``
|
|
|
- class in favor of a generic E-mail backend API.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- * The many to many SQL generation functions on the database backends
|
|
|
- will be removed.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- * The ability to use the ``DATABASE_*`` family of top-level settings to
|
|
|
- define database connections will be removed.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- * The ability to use shorthand notation to specify a database backend
|
|
|
- (i.e., ``sqlite3`` instead of ``django.db.backends.sqlite3``) will be
|
|
|
- removed.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- * The ``get_db_prep_save``, ``get_db_prep_value`` and
|
|
|
- ``get_db_prep_lookup`` methods on Field were modified in 1.2
|
|
|
- to support multiple databases. In 1.4, the support functions
|
|
|
- that allow methods with the old prototype to continue
|
|
|
- working will be removed.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- * The ``Message`` model (in ``django.contrib.auth``), its related
|
|
|
- manager in the ``User`` model (``user.message_set``), and the
|
|
|
- associated methods (``user.message_set.create()`` and
|
|
|
- ``user.get_and_delete_messages()``), which have
|
|
|
- been deprecated since the 1.2 release, will be removed. The
|
|
|
- :doc:`messages framework </ref/contrib/messages>` should be used
|
|
|
- instead. The related ``messages`` variable returned by the
|
|
|
- auth context processor will also be removed. Note that this
|
|
|
- means that the admin application depends on the messages
|
|
|
- context processor.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- * Authentication backends need to support the ``obj`` parameter for
|
|
|
- permission checking. The ``supports_object_permissions`` variable
|
|
|
- is not checked any longer and can be removed.
|
|
|
-

|
|
- * Authentication backends need to support the ``AnonymousUser``
|
|
|
- being passed to all methods dealing with permissions.
|
|
|
- The ``supports_anonymous_user`` variable is not checked any
|
|
|
- longer and can be removed.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- * The ability to specify a callable template loader rather than a
|
|
|
- ``Loader`` class will be removed, as will the ``load_template_source``
|
|
|
- functions that are included with the built in template loaders for
|
|
|
- backwards compatibility. These have been deprecated since the 1.2
|
|
|
- release.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- * ``django.utils.translation.get_date_formats()`` and
|
|
|
- ``django.utils.translation.get_partial_date_formats()``. These
|
|
|
- functions are replaced by the new locale aware formatting; use
|
|
|
- ``django.utils.formats.get_format()`` to get the appropriate
|
|
|
- formats.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- * In ``django.forms.fields``: ``DEFAULT_DATE_INPUT_FORMATS``,
|
|
|
- ``DEFAULT_TIME_INPUT_FORMATS`` and
|
|
|
- ``DEFAULT_DATETIME_INPUT_FORMATS``. Use
|
|
|
- ``django.utils.formats.get_format()`` to get the appropriate
|
|
|
- formats.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- * The ability to use a function-based test runners will be removed,

|
|
|

|
|
|
- * ``django.core.context_processors.auth``. This release will
|
|
|
- remove the old method in favor of the new method in
|
|
|

|
|
|
- deprecated since the 1.2 release.
|
|
|
-
|
|

- * The ``no`` language code has been deprecated in favor of the ``nb``
|
|
|
- language code.

|
|
|
- ``supports_inactive_user``.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- * ``django.db.models.fields.XMLField`` will be removed. This was
|
|
|
- deprecated as part of the 1.3 release. An accelerated deprecation
|
|
|
- schedule has been used because the field hasn't performed any role
|
|
|
- beyond that of a simple ``TextField`` since the removal of oldforms.

|
|
- * The features of the :class:`django.test.simple.DjangoTestRunner`
|
|
|
- (including fail-fast and Ctrl-C test termination) can now be provided

|
|
|
-
|

|
|
|
- been deprecated in favor of the
|
|
|
- :class:`~django.contrib.staticfiles.handlers.StaticFilesHandler`.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- * The :ttag:`url` and :ttag:`ssi` template tags will be
|
|
|
- modified so that the first argument to each tag is a
|
|
|
- template variable, not an implied string. The new-style
|
|
|
- behavior is provided in the ``future`` template tag library.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- * The :djadmin:`reset` and :djadmin:`sqlreset` management commands
|
|
|

|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- * The :setting:`MEDIA_URL` or :setting:`STATIC_URL` settings are

|
|
|
- be removed. Since 1.4 ``csrf_response_exempt`` has been a no-op (it
|
|
|
- returns the same function), and ``csrf_view_exempt`` has been a
|
|
|
- synonym for ``django.views.decorators.csrf.csrf_exempt``, which should
|
|
|
- be used to replace it.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- * The :class:`~django.core.cache.backends.memcached.CacheClass` backend
|
|
|
- was split into two in Django 1.3 in order to introduce support for
|
|
|
- PyLibMC. The historical :class:`~django.core.cache.backends.memcached.CacheClass`
|
|
|
- is now an alias for :class:`~django.core.cache.backends.memcached.MemcachedCache`.
|
|
|
- In Django 1.6, the historical alias will be removed.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- * The UK-prefixed objects of ``django.contrib.localflavor.uk`` will only
|
|
|
- be accessible through their new GB-prefixed names (GB is the correct
|
|
|
- ISO 3166 code for United Kingdom). They have been deprecated since the
|
|
|
- 1.4 release.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- * The :setting:`IGNORABLE_404_STARTS` and :setting:`IGNORABLE_404_ENDS`
|
|
|
- settings have been superseded by :setting:`IGNORABLE_404_URLS` in
|
|
|
- the 1.4 release. They will be removed.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- * The :doc:`form wizard </ref/contrib/formtools/form-wizard>` has been
|
|
|
- refactored to use class based views with pluggable backends in 1.4.
|
|
|
- The previous implementation will be deprecated.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- * Legacy ways of calling
|
|
|
- :func:`~django.views.decorators.cache.cache_page` will be removed.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- * The backward-compatibility shim to automatically add a debug-false
|
|
|
- filter to the ``'mail_admins'`` logging handler will be removed. The
|
|
|
- :setting:`LOGGING` setting should include this filter explicitly if
|
|
|
- it is desired.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- * The template tag
|
|
|
- :func:`django.contrib.admin.templatetags.adminmedia.admin_media_prefix`
|
|
|
- was deprecated since Django 1.4 and will be removed in favor of the
|
|
|
- generic static files handling.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- * The builin truncation functions
|
|
|
- :func:`django.utils.text.truncate_words` and
|
|
|
- :func:`django.utils.text.truncate_html_words`
|
|
|
- were deprecated since Django 1.4 and will be removed in favor
|
|
|
- of the ``django.utils.text.Truncator`` class.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- * 2.0
|
|
|
- * ``django.views.defaults.shortcut()``. This function has been moved
|
|
|
- to ``django.contrib.contenttypes.views.shortcut()`` as part of the
|
|
|
- goal of removing all ``django.contrib`` references from the core
|
|
|
- Django codebase. The old shortcut will be removed in the 2.0
|
|
|
- release.

|
|
|

|
|
|
+ * The :class:`~django.core.servers.basehttp.AdminMediaHandler` has
|
|
|
+ been deprecated in favor of the
|
|
|
+ :class:`~django.contrib.staticfiles.handlers.StaticFilesHandler`.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ * The :ttag:`url` and :ttag:`ssi` template tags will be
|
|
|
+ modified so that the first argument to each tag is a
|
|
|
+ template variable, not an implied string. The new-style
|
|
|
+ behavior is provided in the ``future`` template tag library.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ * The :djadmin:`reset` and :djadmin:`sqlreset` management commands
|
|
|
+ are deprecated.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ * Authentication backends need to support a inactive user
|
|
|
+ being passed to all methods dealing with permissions.
|
|
|
+ The ``supports_inactive_user`` variable is not checked any
|
|
|
+ longer and can be removed.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ * :meth:`~django.contrib.gis.geos.GEOSGeometry.transform` will raise
|
|
|
+ a :class:`~django.contrib.gis.geos.GEOSException` when called
|
|
|
+ on a geometry with no SRID value.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ * :class:`~django.http.CompatCookie` will be removed in favor of
|
|
|
+ :class:`~django.http.SimpleCookie`.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ * :class:`django.core.context_processors.PermWrapper` and
|
|
|
+ :class:`django.core.context_processors.PermLookupDict`
|
|
|
+ will be moved to :class:`django.contrib.auth.context_processors.PermWrapper`

|
|
+ and :class:`django.contrib.auth.context_processors.PermLookupDict`,
|
|
|
+ respectively.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ * The :setting:`MEDIA_URL` or :setting:`STATIC_URL` settings are
|
|
|
+ required to end with a trailing slash to ensure there is a consistent
|
|
|
+ way to combine paths in templates.

+1.6
|
|
|
+---
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ * The compatibility modules ``django.utils.copycompat`` and
|
|
|
+ ``django.utils.hashcompat`` as well as the functions
|
|
|
+ ``django.utils.itercompat.all`` and ``django.utils.itercompat.any``
|
|
|
+ have been deprecated since the 1.4 release. The native versions
|
|
|
+ should be used instead.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ * The :func:`~django.views.decorators.csrf.csrf_response_exempt` and
|
|
|
+ :func:`~django.views.decorators.csrf.csrf_view_exempt` decorators will
|
|
|
+ be removed. Since 1.4 ``csrf_response_exempt`` has been a no-op (it
|
|
|
+ returns the same function), and ``csrf_view_exempt`` has been a
|
|
|
+ synonym for ``django.views.decorators.csrf.csrf_exempt``, which should
|
|
|
+ be used to replace it.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ * The :class:`~django.core.cache.backends.memcached.CacheClass` backend
|
|
|
+ was split into two in Django 1.3 in order to introduce support for
|
|
|
+ PyLibMC. The historical :class:`~django.core.cache.backends.memcached.CacheClass`
|
|
|
+ is now an alias for :class:`~django.core.cache.backends.memcached.MemcachedCache`.
|
|
|
+ In Django 1.6, the historical alias will be removed.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ * The UK-prefixed objects of ``django.contrib.localflavor.uk`` will only
|
|
|
+ be accessible through their new GB-prefixed names (GB is the correct
|
|
|
+ ISO 3166 code for United Kingdom). They have been deprecated since the
|
|
|
+ 1.4 release.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ * The :setting:`IGNORABLE_404_STARTS` and :setting:`IGNORABLE_404_ENDS`
|
|
|
+ settings have been superseded by :setting:`IGNORABLE_404_URLS` in
|
|
|
+ the 1.4 release. They will be removed.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ * The :doc:`form wizard </ref/contrib/formtools/form-wizard>` has been
|
|
|
+ refactored to use class based views with pluggable backends in 1.4.
|
|
|
+ The previous implementation will be deprecated.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ * Legacy ways of calling
|
|
|
+ :func:`~django.views.decorators.cache.cache_page` will be removed.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ * The backward-compatibility shim to automatically add a debug-false
|
|
|
+ filter to the ``'mail_admins'`` logging handler will be removed. The
|
|
|
+ :setting:`LOGGING` setting should include this filter explicitly if
|
|
|
+ it is desired.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ * The template tag
|
|
|
+ :func:`django.contrib.admin.templatetags.adminmedia.admin_media_prefix`
|
|
|
+ was deprecated since Django 1.4 and will be removed in favor of the
|
|
|
+ generic static files handling.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ * The builin truncation functions
|
|
|
+ :func:`django.utils.text.truncate_words` and
|
|
|
+ :func:`django.utils.text.truncate_html_words`
|
|
|
+ were deprecated since Django 1.4 and will be removed in favor
|
|
|
+ of the ``django.utils.text.Truncator`` class.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+2.0
|
|
|
+---
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ * ``django.views.defaults.shortcut()``. This function has been moved
|
|
|
+ to ``django.contrib.contenttypes.views.shortcut()`` as part of the
|
|
|
+ goal of removing all ``django.contrib`` references from the core
|
|
|
+ Django codebase. The old shortcut will be removed in the 2.0
|
|
|
+ release.
