# Django REST framework 3.9
The 3.9 release gives access to _extra actions_ in the Browsable API, introduces composable permissions and built-in [OpenAPI][openapi] schema support.

## Breaking Changes
TODO... (NONE???)

## Deprecations
### Router argument/method renamed to use `basename` for consistency.
* The `Router.register` `base_name` argument has been renamed in favor of `basename`.
* The `Router.get_default_base_name` method has been renamed in favor of `Router.get_default_basename`. [#5990][gh5990]
See [#5990][gh5990].
[gh5990]: https://github.com/encode/django-rest-framework/pull/5990
`base_name` and `get_default_base_name()` are pending deprecation. They will be deprecated in 3.10 and removed entirely in 3.11.
### `action` decorator replaces `list_route` and `detail_route`
Both `list_route` and `detail_route` are now deprecated in favour of the single `action` decorator.
They will be removed entirely in 3.10.
The `action` decorator takes a boolean `detail` argument.
* Replace `detail_route` uses with `@action(detail=True)`.
* Replace `list_route` uses with `@action(detail=False)`.
### `exclude_from_schema`
Both `APIView.exclude_from_schema` and the `exclude_from_schema` argument to the `@api_view` have now been removed.
For `APIView` you should instead set a `schema = None` attribute on the view class.
For function based views the `@schema` decorator can be used to exclude the view from the schema, by using `@schema(None)`.
