# 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. --- ## Funding If you use REST framework commercially and would like to see this work continue, we strongly encourage you to invest in its continued development by **[signing up for a paid plan][funding]**. *We'd like to say thanks in particular our premium backers, [Rover](http://jobs.rover.com/), [Sentry](https://getsentry.com/welcome/), [Stream](https://getstream.io/?utm_source=drf&utm_medium=banner&utm_campaign=drf), [Machinalis](https://hello.machinalis.co.uk/), and [Rollbar](https://rollbar.com).* --- TODO: HEADLINE FEATURES. 1, 2, 3. --- ## 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)`. --- ## Minor fixes and improvements There are a large number of minor fixes and improvements in this release.
