Djblets 0.7.12 Release Notes¶

Release date: April 19, 2013

djblets.datagrid¶

Massively speed up datagrid rendering.

The rendering code for datagrids had a flaw where it would re-populate some state for every cell, and this could be very expensive. It’s now reused on all cells.

We saw this with one application where a datagrid would take 6 seconds to render. Now it takes 0.5 seconds.

djblets.extensions¶

Added an install_extension() function to ExtensionManager.

This can be used to install extensions dynamically from a file or URL.

Patch by Surya Nallu.

djblets.util.fields¶

CounterField now allows incrementing/decrementing by values other than 1.

Patch by Raja Venkataraman.

djblets.util.templatetags¶

The thumbnail() and crop_image() template tags now work with Django Storage backends.
Added a save_image_to_storage() function in djblets_images that makes it easy to save image data to Storage backends.

djblets.webapi¶

Resources now consider both Last Modified and ETag headers simultaneously when determining if a cached payload is still valid. Previously, if the Last Modified timestamps were the same, the ETag check would fail.
