Django 1.2 Features
This page lists features which have been proposed for development/inclusion in Django 1.2. So far no decisions have been made regarding any of these features. See Version1.2Roadmap for information on the process and definition of terms.
Features under consideration
- Multi-database support (Alex Gaynor's GSoC project)
- Admin UI Enhancements (Zain Memon's GSoC project)
- Improved/reworked CsrfProtection (see #9977, #10816)
- i18n improvements (Marc Garcia's GSoC project)
- Add {% doctype %} and {% field %} template tags from http://github.com/simonw/django-html/
- Smarter {% if %} tag from http://www.djangosnippets.org/snippets/1350/
- Syndication feed views and better Atom support: http://github.com/bfirsh/syndication-view/
- Search support in the ORM: http://github.com/bfirsh/django/tree/search
- Support for non-relational databases: Tokyo Cabinet/Tyrant, MongoDB, Cassandra, Google Bigtable (AppEngine, #10192), Amazon SimpleDB, CouchDB, etc
- Add a method to the orm to create Model instances from raw sql queries (useful when the orm is limiting you)
- Add a generic "official" way to create a REST API; so far there are quite a bunch of pluggables, with varying levels of "completeness", documentation and efficiency, and they're quite hard to choose from.
- Make easier to mantain / deploy default settings.py by either:
- include localsettings at the end, with the recommended approach of putting DATABASE_* settings in localsettings.py
- or: if DEBUG: { some database settings } else: { other database settings }
- integrate some DVCS in django-admin.py, perhaps Mercurial or Git. This would make it easier to adopt and collaborate on Django projects. (This is stolen from Rails)
- Complete comment moderation by documenting existing approval process (#9819) and/or by adding admin actions (#11625) to the
CommentsAdmin. - Extra template tags and filters (http://groups.google.com/group/django-developers/browse_thread/thread/2045a50970d6a883)
- Replace get_absolute_url (http://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/ReplacingGetAbsoluteUrl)
- Make working with inline formsets easier (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/442040/pre-populate-an-inline-formset, as per James: ...the way the model formsets work just make this more trouble than it's usually worth, but with a bit of API cleanup I think it could be made extremely easy., also http://groups.google.com/group/django-developers/browse_thread/thread/f9aae709a7fda689)
