BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY BREAK
There was a bug which caused registering an autocomplete with a model
attribute to be renamed by the registry to prefix the autocomplete name
with the model name. This should not be the case anymore, but some
autocomplete names might have changed in your project if you've been
working around that bug by using the buggy name rather than forcing name=
uppon registration. Example:
class Foo(YourBaseAutocomplete):
model = Bar
autocomplete_light.register(Foo)
The above example Would cause 'FooBar' to be registered, but now it's just
'Foo' as expected. So if you're using 'FooBar' instead of 'Foo' anywhere it
should break. See 323 / 255263e61 for gory details.
DEPRECATION WARNING
Because Django 1.9 is so sharp on import, ``import autocomplete_light``
should become ``import autocomplete_light.shortcuts as autocomplete_light``
in your projects. Backward compatibility will be maintained, but you don't
get all the shortcuts from ``import autocomplete_light`` anymore starting
Django 1.9.
- Django 1.8, 1.9 support: fixed warnings, use pytest-django
- 383: Support ModelForms without Meta.model
- 313: Model not acquired from AutocompleteModelBase
- 323: Only derivate the autocomplete name if both model and autocomplete
are passed
- 378: Be friendly with special html chars in values (David Aurelio)
- 381: The "open parentheses" (shift+9) cannot be typed on autocomplete
field.
- 380: PyPy support: PyPy2 tests passes without genericm2m and without
taggit. PyPy3 tests won't run because lxml won't install. (Piet Delport)
- 374: Update clear-fix with latest version,
- Also Daniel Hahler made an outstanding job in the test area, builds are a
lot faster, using tox, pytest-django.
- Daniel Hahler is the second owner of YourLabs org, way to go !
So we got 7 bugs fixed, PyPy support, Django 1.8 and Django 1.9 support (we
support 1.4 to 1.9 now).
Thanks a lot to Daniel Hahler for having couch-hosted me the last 7 days in
Berlin, we've been hacking like crazy, it was really awesome, I went there
for some hacking and now I know I have a friend for life.
See you for the next django-autocomplete-light sprint ;) Who's hosting BTW
?
