Djblets 0.8.10 Release Notes¶
Release date: September 15, 2014
djblets.auth¶
Removed the maximum password length restriction in
RegistrationForm
.This limit was here due to issues in very early versions of Django, and no longer applies. Long password can now be set without hitting a restriction.
djblets.configforms¶
Fixed calling the parent
render()
method inDjblets.TableView()
.
djblets.db¶
djblets.db.fields.CounterField
now supportsF()
expressions during initialization.Using
F()
expressions allows for doing more advanced, atomic computation of default values based on other fields in the model, without having to write a custom function.Added
djblets.db.fields.RelationCounterField
for counting objects on the other side of a relation.RelationCounterField tracks the counts on one end of a ForeignKey or ManyToManyField relation, providing a convenient and efficient way of operating based on how many objects are related to the model.
It works just like CounterField, but handles all the hard working of getting the total counts when first initializing and keeping them up to date as objects are added or removed.
djblets.testing¶
Added a mixin for test cases that need to create custom models.
Django doesn’t make it easy to write unit tests that have their own custom models. The test runner has to add an app with a models.py file to
INSTALLED_APPS
, and the models have to live somewhere within that directory. This is a lot of work, and it’s hard to keep things clean this way.This release introduces a new mixin,
djblets.testing.testcases.TestModelsLoaderMixin
, that can be used to allow a file containing unit tests to define custom models. The classes that need to use the models simply define the models within the file, use the mixin, and then operate on them.The mixin handles the hard work of sticking the module in
INSTALLED_APPS
, loading the module, and also creating a fake ‘models’ module to satisfy Django’s requirements.Docstrings for test cases using
djblets.testing.testcases.TestCase
can now wrap without being cut off.
djblets.webapi¶
Failing to parse the HTTP
Authorization
header for any reason now logs a warning instead of returning a HTTP 500.
jquery.gravy.inlineEditor¶
Fixed the sizing of inline editor fields on Firefox.
Due to a bad calculation, the fields could end up being very short, making room for buttons that were actually on the next line. They now take up the full available width.
jquery.gravy.retina¶
$.fn.retinaGravatar()
no longer overwrites parameters set in the provided Gravatar URL.
