When is GAE going to support Django 1.0?

[Damien Hou]

I've been using my own copy of django svn version along with my apps. As the final 1.0 release approaching (scheduled for next week!), there has been quite some major changes in the latest versions.

To name one, the use of newforms is deprecated in favor of simply forms, and in the latest beta releases newforms have been removed. I'm using a django 1.0 alpha version with one of my apps and I see django raising errors about GAE code still using the deprecated newforms.

I haven't tried 1.0 beta on GAE yet. But plan to try the 1.0 final code and see if there's any compatibility problems. But the best thing would be that GAE by default supports the 1.0 final release and upgrade from the current outdated 0.96 release

I'm trying Django 1.0 Beta 2 and it does not wor with App Engine
Helper r52.

Tryed to fix errors but as python newbie got lost in too many details.

You'll need to use the latest SVN head revision of the helper if you are
testing Django 1.0. We are actively watching its release progress and
updating the helper accordingly as fast as possible.

I've just committed (in r58) a patch from issue #78 which fixes the
latest round of bugs introduced from the release of beta 2 so the
current SVN head should work fine with Django 1.0beta2.

There are still some test failures being printed, as the
django.contrib.auth application tests are being run when they are not
valid for the App Engine Helper environment. I attempted to disable
these tests in r51, but the beta2 has re-enabled them somehow. I'll take
another look at getting these disabled correctly later tonight. For now
you can either ignore them (the only affect you if you run manage.py
test) or you can remove django.contrib.auth from your INSTALLED_APPS
list if you are not using it.

Cheers

Thanks, Matt. I'll try the latest helper with the coming 1.0.

I've been using appengine patch for my django projects. Not sure what the patcher guys' plan is, though.

Our plan is to support 1.0 when it's released (in the repository we're
now compatible with trunk). Also, if no "django" folder is found in
"common" or the project root folder the one from the SDK will be used
instead (preparing for Google to add Django 1.0). Apart from that, you
can see a very minimalistic "roadmap" in the release notes:

Hey Waldemar,

The Django 1.0 is realeased: http://www.djangoproject.com/weblog/2008/sep/03/1/

Any plan to include the Django 1.0 into GAE image so app developers
could exclude it from our deployment files?

Could we expect the SDK to be update with Django 1.0 included?

We've already updated appenginepatch. You can even download a sample
project (showing off our generic views support) that comes with Django
1.0 and appenginepatch pre-installed, so you can skip the annoying
install procedure and get started immediately:

Hopefully it'll be in the soon-to-be-released SDK 1.1.3.

Hi,

As GAE 1.1.3 was released is Django 1.0 part of it?

In case not, is there any news on updating the helper to Django 1.0?
