Changes

Unreleased

  • Made skip_history_when_saving work when creating an object - not just when updating an object (gh-1262)
  • Improved performance of the latest_of_each() history manager method (gh-1360)

3.7.0 (2024-05-29)

  • Dropped support for Django 3.2, which reached end-of-life on 2024-04-01 (gh-1344)
  • Removed the temporary requirement on asgiref>=3.6 added in 3.5.0, now that the minimum required Django version is 4.2 (gh-1344)
  • Migrated package building from using the deprecated setup.py to using pyproject.toml (with Hatchling as build backend); setup.py has consequently been removed (gh-1348)
  • Added django>=4.2 as an installation dependency, to mirror the minimum version tested in our CI (gh-1349)

3.6.0 (2024-05-26)

  • Support custom History Manager and QuerySet classes (gh-1280)
  • Renamed the (previously internal) admin template simple_history/_object_history_list.html to simple_history/object_history_list.html, and added the field SimpleHistoryAdmin.object_history_list_template for overriding it (gh-1128)
  • Deprecated the undocumented template tag simple_history_admin_list.display_list(); it will be removed in version 3.8 (gh-1128)
  • Added SimpleHistoryAdmin.get_history_queryset() for overriding which QuerySet is used to list the historical records (gh-1128)
  • Added SimpleHistoryAdmin.get_history_list_display() which returns history_list_display by default, and made the latter into an actual field (gh-1128)
  • ModelDelta and ModelChange (in simple_history.models) are now immutable dataclasses; their signatures remain unchanged (gh-1128)
  • ModelDelta's changes and changed_fields are now sorted alphabetically by field name. Also, if ModelChange is for an M2M field, its old and new lists are sorted by the related object. This should help prevent flaky tests. (gh-1128)
  • diff_against() has a new keyword argument, foreign_keys_are_objs; see usage in the docs under "History Diffing" (gh-1128)
  • Added a "Changes" column to SimpleHistoryAdmin's object history table, listing the changes between each historical record of the object; see the docs under "Customizing the History Admin Templates" for overriding its template context (gh-1128)
  • Fixed the setting SIMPLE_HISTORY_ENABLED = False not preventing M2M historical records from being created (gh-1328)
  • For history-tracked M2M fields, adding M2M objects (using add() or set()) used to cause a number of database queries that scaled linearly with the number of objects; this has been fixed to now be a constant number of queries (gh-1333)

3.5.0 (2024-02-19)

  • Fixed FieldError when creating historical records for many-to-many fields with to="self" (gh-1218)
  • Allow HistoricalRecords.m2m_fields as str (gh-1243)
  • Fixed HistoryRequestMiddleware deleting non-existent HistoricalRecords.context.request in very specific circumstances (gh-1256)
  • Added custom_historical_attrs to bulk_create_with_history() and bulk_update_with_history() for setting additional fields on custom history models (gh-1248)
  • Passing an empty list as the fields argument to bulk_update_with_history() is now allowed; history records will still be created (gh-1248)
  • Added temporary requirement on asgiref>=3.6 while the minimum required Django version is lower than 4.2 (gh-1261)
  • Small performance optimization of the clean-duplicate_history command (gh-1015)
  • Support Simplified Chinese translation (gh-1281)
  • Added support for Django 5.0 (gh-1283)
  • Added support for Python 3.13 (gh-1289)

3.4.0 (2023-08-18)

  • Fixed typos in the docs
  • Added feature to evaluate history model permissions explicitly when SIMPLE_HISTORY_ENFORCE_HISTORY_MODEL_PERMISSIONS is set to True in settings (gh-1017).

  • Added support for Django 4.2 (gh-1202)
  • Made bulk_update_with_history() return the number of model rows updated (gh-1206)

  • Made HistoryRequestMiddleware async-capable (gh-1209)
  • Fixed error when setting table_name with inherit=True (gh-1195)

3.3.0 (2023-03-08)

  • Made it possible to use the new m2m_fields with model inheritance (gh-1042)
  • Added two signals: pre_create_historical_m2m_records and post_create_historical_m2m_records (gh-1042)
  • Added tracked_fields attribute to historical models (gh-1038)
