project.
Python compatibility
====================
Django 5.1 supports Python 3.10, 3.11, and 3.12. We **highly recommend** and
only officially support the latest release of each series.

exceptions when storing session information in the cache, logging proper
error messages with their traceback via the newly added
:ref:`sessions logger <django-contrib-sessions-logger>`.
* :class:`django.contrib.sessions.backends.base.SessionBase` and all built-in

:class:`operation category
<django.db.migrations.operations.base.OperationCategory>` used by the

:class:`~django.db.models.SlugField`, :class:`~django.db.models.URLField`,
:class:`~django.db.models.TextField`, or
:class:`~django.contrib.postgres.fields.ArrayField` can now be :ref:`sliced
<slicing-using-f>`.
* The new ``from_queryset`` argument of :meth:`.Model.refresh_from_db` and

reload a model's value. This can be used to lock the row before reloading or
to select related objects.
Requests and Responses
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* ...
Security
~~~~~~~~
* ...
Serialization
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* ...
Signals
~~~~~~~
* ...
Templates
~~~~~~~~~
* Custom tags may now set extra data on the ``Parser`` object that will later
be made available on the ``Template`` instance. Such data may be used, for
example, by the template loader, or other template clients.
* The new :ttag:`{% query_string %} <query_string>` template tag allows
changing a :class:`~django.http.QueryDict` instance for use in links, for
example, to generate a link to the next page while keeping any filtering
options in place.
* :ref:`Template engines <field-checking>` now implement a ``check()`` method
that is already registered with the check framework.
Tests
~~~~~
* :meth:`~django.test.SimpleTestCase.assertContains`,
:meth:`~django.test.SimpleTestCase.assertNotContains`, and
:meth:`~django.test.SimpleTestCase.assertInHTML` assertions now add haystacks
to assertion error messages.
* The :class:`~django.test.RequestFactory`,
:class:`~django.test.AsyncRequestFactory`, :class:`~django.test.Client`, and
:class:`~django.test.AsyncClient` classes now support the ``query_params``
parameter, which accepts a dictionary of query string keys and values. This
allows setting query strings on any HTTP methods more easily.
.. code-block:: python
self.client.post("/items/1", query_params={"action": "delete"})
await self.async_client.post("/items/1", query_params={"action": "delete"})
* The new :meth:`.SimpleTestCase.assertNotInHTML` assertion allows testing that
an HTML fragment is not contained in the given HTML haystack.
* In order to enforce test isolation, database connections inside threads are
no longer allowed in :class:`~django.test.SimpleTestCase`.

.. _backwards-incompatible-5.1:
Backwards incompatible changes in 5.1
=====================================
Database backend API
--------------------
This section describes changes that may be needed in third-party database
backends.
* ...
:mod:`django.contrib.gis`
-------------------------
* Support for PostGIS 2.5 is removed.
* Support for PROJ < 6 is removed.
* Support for GDAL 2.4 is removed.
* :class:`~django.contrib.gis.geoip2.GeoIP2` no longer opens both city and
country databases when a directory path is provided, preferring the city
database, if it is available. The country database is a subset of the city
database and both are not typically needed. If you require use of the country
database when in the same directory as the city database, explicitly pass the
country database path to the constructor.
Dropped support for MariaDB 10.4
--------------------------------
Upstream support for MariaDB 10.4 ends in June 2024. Django 5.1 supports
MariaDB 10.5 and higher.
Dropped support for PostgreSQL 12
---------------------------------
Upstream support for PostgreSQL 12 ends in November 2024. Django 5.1 supports
PostgreSQL 13 and higher.
Miscellaneous
-------------
* In order to improve accessibility, the admin's changelist filter is now
rendered in a ``<nav>`` tag instead of a ``<div>``.
* In order to improve accessibility, the admin's footer is now rendered in
a ``<footer>`` tag instead of a ``<div>``, and also moved below the
``<div id="main">`` element.
* :meth:`.SimpleTestCase.assertURLEqual` and
:meth:`~django.test.SimpleTestCase.assertInHTML` now add ``": "`` to the
``msg_prefix``. This is consistent with the behavior of other assertions.
* ``django.utils.text.Truncator`` used by :tfilter:`truncatechars_html` and
:tfilter:`truncatewords_html` template filters now uses
:py:class:`html.parser.HTMLParser` subclasses. This results in a more robust
and faster operation, but there may be small differences in the output.
* The undocumented ``django.urls.converters.get_converter()`` function is
removed.
* The minimum supported version of SQLite is increased from 3.27.0 to 3.31.0.
.. _deprecated-features-5.1:
Features deprecated in 5.1
==========================
Miscellaneous
-------------
* The ``ModelAdmin.log_deletion()`` and ``LogEntryManager.log_action()``
methods are deprecated. Subclasses should implement
``ModelAdmin.log_deletions()`` and ``LogEntryManager.log_actions()``
instead.
* The undocumented ``django.utils.itercompat.is_iterable()`` function and the
``django.utils.itercompat`` module are deprecated. Use
``isinstance(..., collections.abc.Iterable)`` instead.
* The ``django.contrib.gis.geoip2.GeoIP2.coords()`` method is deprecated. Use
``django.contrib.gis.geoip2.GeoIP2.lon_lat()`` instead.
* The ``django.contrib.gis.geoip2.GeoIP2.open()`` method is deprecated. Use the
:class:`~django.contrib.gis.geoip2.GeoIP2` constructor instead.
* Passing positional arguments to :meth:`.Model.save` and :meth:`.Model.asave`
is deprecated in favor of keyword-only arguments.
* Setting ``django.contrib.gis.gdal.OGRGeometry.coord_dim`` is deprecated. Use
:meth:`~django.contrib.gis.gdal.OGRGeometry.set_3d` instead.
* Overriding existing converters with ``django.urls.register_converter()`` is
deprecated.
* The ``check`` keyword argument of ``CheckConstraint`` is deprecated in favor
of ``condition``.
Features removed in 5.1
=======================
These features have reached the end of their deprecation cycle and are removed
in Django 5.1.
See :ref:`deprecated-features-4.2` for details on these changes, including how
to remove usage of these features.

* The model's ``Meta.index_together`` option is removed.

``django.contrib.postgres.fields.CIEmailField``, and
``django.contrib.postgres.fields.CITextField`` are removed, except for

``TimestampSigner`` is removed.
* The ``DEFAULT_FILE_STORAGE`` and ``STATICFILES_STORAGE`` settings is removed.
