Djblets 0.6.4 Release Notes¶
Release date: September 14, 2010
djblets.testing¶
An undefined variable error when using the Selenium test support has been fixed.
djblets.util¶
Added an
augment_method_from()
decorator for augmenting existing functions.This allows a subclass to augment a parent class’s function’s documentation and decorators. The existing decorators are automatically inherited. Where this becomes useful is where you have several classes that share common logic, but may need further restrictions or new documentation.
The defined function is meant to have an empty body (or
pass
), but it can contain code wich will be executed after the parent function. No returned values will be used, however.
djblets.webapi¶
When serializing a dictionary in a webapi response into XML, we now properly serialize keys that are integers. They are serialized as
<int value="...">
.Fixed a circular dependency that occured between
resources.py
,encoders.py
, andcore.py
(depending on which was first imported).The User resource now accepts a
.
in the username.List-only resources now always have their
get_list
function called, regardless of whether it hadlist_child_resources
defined.Singleton resources (resources that exist as a single child item with no object list) must now have the
singleton
parameter set toTrue
.HTTP Accept mimetypes and
?api_format=
are now supported properly for resources.Specifying
api_format
in POST requests now works.Resource classes instances can now be queried by class, using the
get_resource_from_class()
function.Resource classes can now be introspected:
Functions can list which error classes the client can expect to receive using the
@webapi_response_errors
decorator. It can be queried usingfunction.response_errors
.The list of fields that can or must be specified for HTTP GET/PUT/POST can now be queried. It can be queried using
function.required_fields
andfunction.optional_fields
.Usage of
@webapi_login_required
can now be checked by accessingfunction.login_required
.The list of fields on a resource should now be a dictionary, which can include a description of the field.
The custom links on a resource can now be explicitly listed by overriding the
get_related_links
function.
