Welcome to the django-removals - a maintainer's best friend for finding removed features in your Django project

• PyPI
• GitHub
• Full documentation
• Creator & Maintainer: Ambient Digital

Features

This package will throw Django system checks warnings for all known removals from Django v1.0 to today.

Here's an example:

The checks will either be triggered when using the Django development server

python manage.py runserver

or when you call the checks manually

python manage.py check --deploy

It focuses on Django settings but might also add more checks in the future.

Installation

• Install the package via pip:

  pip install django-removals

  or via pipenv:

  pipenv install django-removals

• Add module to INSTALLED_APPS within the main django settings.py:

  INSTALLED_APPS = (
      # ...
      "django_removals",
  )

Since this package adds only Django system checks, which don't run on production, you could add it only when being in (local) debug mode.

if DEBUG_MODE:
    INSTALLED_APPS += ("django_removals",)

Contribute

Setup package for development

• Create a Python virtualenv and activate it
• Install "pip-tools" with pip install -U pip-tools
• Compile the requirements with pip-compile --extra dev, -o requirements.txt pyproject.toml --resolver=backtracking
• Sync the dependencies with your virtualenv with pip-sync

Add functionality

• Create a new branch for your feature
• Change the dependency in your requirements.txt to a local (editable) one that points to your local file system: -e /Users/workspace/django-removals or via pip pip install -e /Users/workspace/django-removals
• Ensure the code passes the tests
• Create a pull request

Run tests

• Run tests

  pytest --ds settings tests
  

• Check coverage

  coverage run -m pytest --ds settings tests
  coverage report -m
  

Git hooks (via pre-commit)

We use pre-push hooks to ensure that only linted code reaches our remote repository and pipelines aren't triggered in vain.

To enable the configured pre-push hooks, you need to install pre-commit and run once:

pre-commit install -t pre-push -t pre-commit --install-hooks

This will permanently install the git hooks for both, frontend and backend, in your local .git/hooks folder. The hooks are configured in the .pre-commit-config.yaml.

You can check whether hooks work as intended using the run command:

pre-commit run [hook-id] [options]

Example: run single hook

pre-commit run ruff --all-files --hook-stage push

Example: run all hooks of pre-push stage

pre-commit run --all-files --hook-stage push

Update documentation

• To build the documentation, run: sphinx-build docs/ docs/_build/html/.
• Open docs/_build/html/index.html to see the documentation.

Publish to ReadTheDocs.io

• Fetch the latest changes in GitHub mirror and push them
• Trigger new build at ReadTheDocs.io (follow instructions in admin panel at RTD) if the GitHub webhook is not yet set up.

Publish to PyPi

• Update documentation about new/changed functionality

• Update the Changelog

• Increment version in main __init__.py

• Create pull request / merge to main

• This project uses the flit package to publish to PyPI. Thus, publishing should be as easy as running:

  flit publish
  

  To publish to TestPyPI use the following to ensure that you have set up your .pypirc as shown here and use the following command:

  flit publish --repository testpypi
  

Maintenance

Please note that this package supports the ambient-package-update. So you don't have to worry about the maintenance of this package. This updater is rendering all important configuration and setup files. It works similar to well-known updaters like pyupgrade or django-upgrade.

To run an update, refer to the documentation page of the "ambient-package-update".
