2008-08-23Massive reorganization of the docs. See the new docs online at ↵Jacob Kaplan-Moss
http://docs.djangoproject.com/. git-svn-id: http://code.djangoproject.com/svn/django/trunk@8506 bcc190cf-cafb-0310-a4f2-bffc1f526a37
2008-08-23Fixed #8388: Corrected documentation for SortedDict use in extra()James Bennett
git-svn-id: http://code.djangoproject.com/svn/django/trunk@8478 bcc190cf-cafb-0310-a4f2-bffc1f526a37
2008-08-17Changed the (internal) way extra(select=.., select_params=...) handling is doneMalcolm Tredinnick
so that parameters stay with their select items. This means that merging and trimming of those items is handled correctly. Refs #7957, #7961. Fixed #8191. git-svn-id: http://code.djangoproject.com/svn/django/trunk@8426 bcc190cf-cafb-0310-a4f2-bffc1f526a37
2008-08-16Fixed #6915: Documented the fact that QuerySet.delete() may not call ↵James Bennett
delete() methods of individual objects git-svn-id: http://code.djangoproject.com/svn/django/trunk@8406 bcc190cf-cafb-0310-a4f2-bffc1f526a37
2008-08-15Fixed #8154: Added note to docs/db-api.txt indicating that reverse() is only ↵James Bennett
useful when the QuerySet has some prior ordering git-svn-id: http://code.djangoproject.com/svn/django/trunk@8371 bcc190cf-cafb-0310-a4f2-bffc1f526a37
2008-08-12Changed "exact" matches in MySQL to use the database's native collation.Malcolm Tredinnick
This effectively reverses the change in [7798]. It was proving too difficult to successfully manage all the side effects here and provide a satisfactory solution for everybody. Many thanks to arne, Martin von Löwis and, particular, Karen Tracey, for doing a lot of research and proto-patches here to establish what was possible and practical. This is backwards incompatible if you were relying on the behaviour after [7798]. The docs have been updated to indicate the solution. Refs #2170, #7789, #8102. git-svn-id: http://code.djangoproject.com/svn/django/trunk@8319 bcc190cf-cafb-0310-a4f2-bffc1f526a37
2008-08-10Fixed #7830 -- Removed all of the remaining, deprecated, non-oldforms features:Gary Wilson Jr
* Support for representing files as strings was removed. Use `django.core.files.base.ContentFile` instead. * Support for representing uploaded files as dictionaries was removed. Use `django.core.files.uploadedfile.SimpleUploadedFile` instead. * The `filename`, `file_name`, `file_size`, and `chuck` properties of `UploadedFile` were removed. Use the `name`, `name`, `size`, and `chunks` properties instead, respectively. * The `get_FIELD_filename`, `get_FIELD_url`, `get_FIELD_size`, and `save_FIELD_file` methods for Models with `FileField` fields were removed. Instead, use the `path`, `url`, and `size` attributes and `save` method on the field itself, respectively. * The `get_FIELD_width` and `get_FIELD_height` methods for Models with `ImageField` fields were removed. Use the `width` and `height` attributes on the field itself instead. * The dispatcher `connect`, `disconnect`, `send`, and `sendExact` functions were removed. Use the signal object's own `connect`, `disconnect`, `send`, and `send` methods instead, respectively. * The `form_for_model` and `form_for_instance` functions were removed. Use a `ModelForm` subclass instead. * Support for importing `django.newforms` was removed. Use `django.forms` instead. * Support for importing `django.utils.images` was removed. Use `django.core.files.images` instead. * Support for the `follow` argument in the `create_object` and `update_object` generic views was removed. Use the `django.forms` package and the new `form_class` argument instead. git-svn-id: http://code.djangoproject.com/svn/django/trunk@8291 bcc190cf-cafb-0310-a4f2-bffc1f526a37
2008-08-09Added the ability to force an SQL insert (or force an update) via a model'sMalcolm Tredinnick
save() method. git-svn-id: http://code.djangoproject.com/svn/django/trunk@8267 bcc190cf-cafb-0310-a4f2-bffc1f526a37
2008-08-08File storage refactoring, adding far more flexibility to Django's file ↵Jacob Kaplan-Moss
handling. The new files.txt document has details of the new features. This is a backwards-incompatible change; consult BackwardsIncompatibleChanges for details. Fixes #3567, #3621, #4345, #5361, #5655, #7415. Many thanks to Marty Alchin who did the vast majority of this work. git-svn-id: http://code.djangoproject.com/svn/django/trunk@8244 bcc190cf-cafb-0310-a4f2-bffc1f526a37
2008-08-08Fixed #7546 -- Fixed an incorrect example in the docs that was misleading someMalcolm Tredinnick
people. Patch from Dan Watson. git-svn-id: http://code.djangoproject.com/svn/django/trunk@8232 bcc190cf-cafb-0310-a4f2-bffc1f526a37
2008-07-29Added a clarification to the docs about filtering across nullable intermediateMalcolm Tredinnick
models with a NULL entry. I'm not brilliantly happy with the description (it's too long for such an edge case, for a start), but it gets the intent across. Refs #8025. git-svn-id: http://code.djangoproject.com/svn/django/trunk@8141 bcc190cf-cafb-0310-a4f2-bffc1f526a37
2008-07-25Fixed #7937 -- Corrected typo in layout of db docs. Thanks to John Scott for ↵Russell Keith-Magee
the report. git-svn-id: http://code.djangoproject.com/svn/django/trunk@8072 bcc190cf-cafb-0310-a4f2-bffc1f526a37

2008-07-19Modified [7999] based on some feedback from Marty Alchin.Malcolm Tredinnick
git-svn-id: http://code.djangoproject.com/svn/django/trunk@8001 bcc190cf-cafb-0310-a4f2-bffc1f526a37
2008-07-19Added a cavaet to the use of get_FOO_filename() and get_FOO_url(). ThisMalcolm Tredinnick
constraint has always existed, but it's very hard to fix in the current code, so better to work around it for now. Refs #5619 git-svn-id: http://code.djangoproject.com/svn/django/trunk@7999 bcc190cf-cafb-0310-a4f2-bffc1f526a37
2008-07-11Documented that the update() method on querysets is a direct SQL call, not theMalcolm Tredinnick
same as looping over the queryset and calling save() on each item (which is less efficient). Fixed #7447. git-svn-id: http://code.djangoproject.com/svn/django/trunk@7884 bcc190cf-cafb-0310-a4f2-bffc1f526a37
2008-06-30Fixed #7314 -- Changed the way extra() bits are handled when QuerySets are ↵Malcolm Tredinnick
merged. Also added a section to the documentation to indicate why it's probably not a good idea to rely on this feature for complex stuff. Garbage in, garbage out applies even to Django code. Thanks to erik for the test case for this one. git-svn-id: http://code.djangoproject.com/svn/django/trunk@7791 bcc190cf-cafb-0310-a4f2-bffc1f526a37

2008-06-14Fixed some stale documentation that was advising against the use of ↵Russell Keith-Magee
OneToOneFields. Post queryset refactor, that warning is no longer required. git-svn-id: http://code.djangoproject.com/svn/django/trunk@7633 bcc190cf-cafb-0310-a4f2-bffc1f526a37
2008-06-12Fixed #7327 -- Added documentation and test case for defining subqueries. ↵Russell Keith-Magee
Thanks, Sebastian Noack. git-svn-id: http://code.djangoproject.com/svn/django/trunk@7625 bcc190cf-cafb-0310-a4f2-bffc1f526a37
2008-05-29Fixed #7260 -- Corrected the description of the exception returned by get() ↵Russell Keith-Magee
when multiple objects match the search criteria. Thanks, leotr. git-svn-id: http://code.djangoproject.com/svn/django/trunk@7559 bcc190cf-cafb-0310-a4f2-bffc1f526a37

2008-04-27Merged the queryset-refactor branch into trunk.Malcolm Tredinnick
This is a big internal change, but mostly backwards compatible with existing code. Also adds a couple of new features. Fixed #245, #1050, #1656, #1801, #2076, #2091, #2150, #2253, #2306, #2400, #2430, #2482, #2496, #2676, #2737, #2874, #2902, #2939, #3037, #3141, #3288, #3440, #3592, #3739, #4088, #4260, #4289, #4306, #4358, #4464, #4510, #4858, #5012, #5020, #5261, #5295, #5321, #5324, #5325, #5555, #5707, #5796, #5817, #5987, #6018, #6074, #6088, #6154, #6177, #6180, #6203, #6658 git-svn-id: http://code.djangoproject.com/svn/django/trunk@7477 bcc190cf-cafb-0310-a4f2-bffc1f526a37
2008-03-26Removed the ado_mssql database backend.Malcolm Tredinnick
It has not been maintained, contains bugs, and improved versions are available externally(e.g. django-mssql and django-pyodbc at Google code). git-svn-id: http://code.djangoproject.com/svn/django/trunk@7364 bcc190cf-cafb-0310-a4f2-bffc1f526a37
2008-03-20Changed the indenting level on a couple of subsections, since they're notMalcolm Tredinnick
children of the "pk lookup shortcut" section. git-svn-id: http://code.djangoproject.com/svn/django/trunk@7338 bcc190cf-cafb-0310-a4f2-bffc1f526a37

2007-08-05Fixed #2101 -- Renamed `maxlength` argument to `max_length` for oldforms ↵Gary Wilson Jr
`FormField`s and db model `Field`s. This is fully backwards compatible at the moment since the legacy `maxlength` argument is still supported. Using `maxlength` will, however, issue a `PendingDeprecationWarning` when used. git-svn-id: http://code.djangoproject.com/svn/django/trunk@5803 bcc190cf-cafb-0310-a4f2-bffc1f526a37

raw save affects those steps. git-svn-id: http://code.djangoproject.com/svn/django/trunk@5700 bcc190cf-cafb-0310-a4f2-bffc1f526a37

git-svn-id: http://code.djangoproject.com/svn/django/trunk@5698 bcc190cf-cafb-0310-a4f2-bffc1f526a37
2007-07-12Fixed #4459 -- Added 'raw' argument to save method, to override any pre-save ↵Russell Keith-Magee
processing, and modified serializers to use a raw-save. This enables serialization of DateFields with auto_now/auto_now_add. Also modified serializers to invoke save() directly on the model baseclass, to avoid any (potentially order-dependent, data modifying) behavior in a custom save() method. git-svn-id: http://code.djangoproject.com/svn/django/trunk@5658 bcc190cf-cafb-0310-a4f2-bffc1f526a37
