Forward and backwards compatibility layer for Django ~~1.4~~, ~~1.7~~, 1.8, 1.9, 1.10 and 1.11
~~Consider [django-compat](https://github.com/arteria/django-compat) as an experiment based on the discussion [on reddit](http://redd.it/2jrr4l). Let's see where it goes.~~
What started as an experiment based on [this discussion on reddit](http://redd.it/2jrr4l) has proven to be true in real life.
django-compat is under active development. To learn about other features, bug fixes, and changes, please refer to the [changelog](https://github.com/arteria/django-compat#changelog).
# Who uses django-compat
Two popular examples of open source reusable app that uses django-compat are [django-hijack](https://github.com/arteria/django-hijack/) and [django-background-tasks](https://github.com/arteria/django-background-tasks).
Want to have yours listed here? Send us a PR.
# Why use django-compat
* Be able to use the LTS versions of Django and support newer versions in your app
* Use features from newer Django versions in an old one
* Manage and master the gap between different framework versions
# How to use django-compat
Install compat from the [PyPI](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/django-compat) or download and install manually. All relevant releases are listed [here under releases](https://github.com/arteria/django-compat/releases).
Using one of the compatible objects is easy. For example
from compat import patterns, url
urlpatterns = patterns('ABC.views',
url(r'^abc/$', 'abc', name='abc-link'),
...
See a full example [here](https://github.com/arteria/django-hijack/blob/4966d8865e7e829a562ff2724771628c6590f841/hijack/urls.py#L1).
