django-removals 1.1.6

Tool for finding removed features in your Django project

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.

Sources

You can read up on Django deprecations in the official docs.

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",)

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.

Preparation and building

This package uses uv for dependency management and building.

• Update documentation about new/changed functionality

• Update the CHANGES.md

• Increment version in main __init__.py

• Create pull request / merge to "main"

• This project uses uv to publish to PyPI. This will create distribution files in the dist/ directory.

  uv build
  

Publishing to PyPI

To publish to the production PyPI:

uv publish

To publish to TestPyPI first (recommended for testing):

uv publish --publish-url https://test.pypi.org/legacy/

You can then test the installation from TestPyPI:

uv pip install --index-url https://test.pypi.org/simple/ ambient-package-update

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".
