A Django app to help for Django upgrades.
Project description
Collection of code/tools to help for Django upgrading. This package name is a reference to python package ‘six’ which was helping compatibility between python 2 and 3.
The idea of this package is to share some experience gained from a Django upgrade from 1.4 to 1.9 on a quite big project. Have a look at Django Upgrade talk for more details. django-seven will at the beginning contain compat module and deprecated rules logic.
Deprecated rules
A Django management command check_deprecated_rules is available to check if your project is “upgrade-compatible”.
You should first add django_seven.deprecated_rules to your INSTALLED_APPS:
INSTALLED_APPS = [ ... 'django_seven.deprecated_rules', ]
Then you should define your current Django version and the version you want to upgrade to in your settings file:
SEVEN_CURRENT_DJANGO_VERSION = '1.4' SEVEN_FUTURE_DJANGO_VERSION = '1.9'
Then launch the check_deprecated_rules management command for your project:
$ ./manage.py check_deprecated_rules ./core/models.py 1601: models.BooleanField has to be initialised with default parameter, as implicit default has changed between Django 1.4 (False) and 1.6 (None). L6: boolean_field = models.BooleanField()
This command will give you a list of non-respected rules, with useful informations to fix them:
The impacted file,
The rule number, with an explanation of the rule,
The line number, and the line copy.
By default, django-seven is defining some deprecated rules, but you can also define yours in settings file. You should respect the rule fields:
DEPRECATED_RULES = [ { 'name': 'deprecated_django_local_flavor_module', 'message': 'Deprecated django.contrib.localflavor module (now third-party lib). Use localflavor instead.', 'regex': r'.*django\.contrib\.localflavor.*', 'number': '1602', 'should_be_fixed_in': '1.6', }, ]
You can also use the django-seven ones and add yours:
CUSTOM_RULES = [ # Your custom rules ] from django_seven.deprecated_rules.rules import DEPRECATED_RULES as SV_DEPRECATED_RULES DEPRECATED_RULES = SV_DEPRECATED_RULES + CUSTOM_RULES
You can specify through settings which directories/files you want to exclude from the deprecated rules search:
SEVEN_EXCLUDED_DIRS = ['venv', '.git', 'frontend', 'static', 'docs'] SEVEN_EXCLUDED_SUB_PATHS = ['migrations'] SEVEN_EXCLUDED_SPECIFIC_FILE = ['my/specific/file.py'] SEVEN_EXCLUDED_FILE_EXTENSIONS = ['.pyc']
