# Release Notes
> Release Early, Release Often
>
> — Eric S. Raymond, [The Cathedral and the Bazaar][cite].
## Versioning
Minor version numbers (0.0.x) are used for changes that are API compatible. You should be able to upgrade between minor point releases without any other code changes.
Medium version numbers (0.x.0) may include API changes, in line with the [deprecation policy][deprecation-policy]. You should read the release notes carefully before upgrading between medium point releases.
2012-12-15 00:08:53 +04:00
Major version numbers (x.0.0) are reserved for substantial project milestones. No major point releases are currently planned.
## Deprecation policy
REST framework releases follow a formal deprecation policy, which is in line with [Django's deprecation policy][django-deprecation-policy].
The timeline for deprecation of a feature present in version 1.0 would work as follows:
* Version 1.1 would remain **fully backwards compatible** with 1.0, but would raise `PendingDeprecationWarning` warnings if you use the feature that are due to be deprecated. These warnings are **silent by default**, but can be explicitly enabled when you're ready to start migrating any required changes. For example if you start running your tests using `python -Wd manage.py test`, you'll be warned of any API changes you need to make.
* Version 1.2 would escalate these warnings to `DeprecationWarning`, which is loud by default.
* Version 1.3 would remove the deprecated bits of API entirely.
Note that in line with Django's policy, any parts of the framework not mentioned in the documentation should generally be considered private API, and may be subject to change.
2012-12-23 22:50:17 +04:00
## Upgrading
To upgrade Django REST framework to the latest version, use pip:
pip install -U djangorestframework
You can determine your currently installed version using `pip freeze`:
pip freeze | grep djangorestframework

* Bugfix: Empty values on ChoiceFields with `required=False` now consistently return `None`.
* Bugfix: Clients setting `page=0` now simply returns the default page size, instead of disabling pagination. [*]
---
[*] Note that the change in `page=0` behaviour fixes what is considered to be a bug in how clients can effect the pagination size. However if you were relying on this behavior you will need to add the following mixin to your list views in order to preserve the existing behavior.
class DisablePaginationMixin(object):
def get_paginate_by(self, queryset=None):
if self.request.QUERY_PARAMS['self.paginate_by_param'] == '0':
return None
return super(DisablePaginationMixin, self).get_paginate_by(queryset)

2013-02-14 17:09:42 +04:00
* Bugfix: Remove unneeded field validation, which caused extra queries.
2013-02-14 17:02:38 +04:00
2013-02-23 00:47:41 +04:00
**Security note**: Following the [disclosure of security vulnerabilities][defusedxml-announce] in Python's XML parsing libraries, use of the `XMLParser` class now requires the `defusedxml` package to be installed.
The security vulnerabilities only affect APIs which use the `XMLParser` class, by enabling it in any views, or by having it set in the `DEFAULT_PARSER_CLASSES` setting. Note that the `XMLParser` class is not enabled by default, so this change should affect a minority of users.

* Bugfix: Handle ObjectDoesNotExist exception when serializing null reverse one-to-one
2013-05-28 19:13:12 +04:00
**Note**: Prior to 2.1.16, The Decimals would render in JSON using floating point if `simplejson` was installed, but otherwise render using string notation. Now that use of `simplejson` has been deprecated, Decimals will consistently render using string notation. See [#582] for more details.

2012-12-31 12:53:49 +04:00
This change will not affect user code, so long as it's following the recommended import style of `from rest_framework import serializers` and referring to fields using the style `serializers.PrimaryKeyRelatedField`.

2012-12-15 00:08:53 +04:00
### 0.2.0
* Big refactoring changes since 0.1.0, ask on the discussion group if anything isn't clear.
The public API has been massively cleaned up. Expect it to be fairly stable from here on in.
* ``Resource`` becomes decoupled into ``View`` and ``Resource``, your views should now inherit from ``View``, not ``Resource``.
* The handler functions on views ``.get() .put() .post()`` etc, no longer have the ``content`` and ``auth`` args.
Use ``self.CONTENT`` inside a view to access the deserialized, validated content.
Use ``self.user`` inside a view to access the authenticated user.
* ``allowed_methods`` and ``anon_allowed_methods`` are now defunct. if a method is defined, it's available.
The ``permissions`` attribute on a ``View`` is now used to provide generic permissions checking.
Use permission classes such as ``FullAnonAccess``, ``IsAuthenticated`` or ``IsUserOrIsAnonReadOnly`` to set the permissions.
* The ``authenticators`` class becomes ``authentication``. Class names change to ``Authentication``.
* The ``emitters`` class becomes ``renderers``. Class names change to ``Renderers``.
* ``ResponseException`` becomes ``ErrorResponse``.
* The mixin classes have been nicely refactored, the basic mixins are now ``RequestMixin``, ``ResponseMixin``, ``AuthMixin``, and ``ResourceMixin``
You can reuse these mixin classes individually without using the ``View`` class.
