The first part of django.contrib.postgres, including model and two form
fields for arrays of other data types.
This commit is formed of the following work:
Add shell of postgres app and test handling.
First draft of array fields.
Use recursive deconstruction.
Stop creating classes at lookup time.
Add validation and size parameter.
Add contained_by lookup.
Add SimpleArrayField for forms.
Add SplitArrayField (mainly for admin).
Fix prepare_value for SimpleArrayField.
Stop using MultiValueField and MultiWidget.
They don't play nice with flexible sizes.
Add basics of admin integration.
Missing:
- Tests
- Fully working js
Add reference document for django.contrib.postgres.fields.ArrayField.
Various performance and style tweaks.
Fix internal docs link, formalise code snippets.
Remove the admin code for now.
It needs a better way of handing JS widgets in the admin as a whole
before it is easy to write. In particular there are serious issues
involving DateTimePicker when used in an array.
Add a test for nested array fields with different delimiters.
This will be a documented pattern so having a test for it is useful.
Add docs for SimpleArrayField.
Add docs for SplitArrayField.
Remove admin related code for now.
definition -> description
Fix typo.
Py3 errors.
Avoid using regexes where they're not needed.
Allow passing tuples by the programmer.
Add some more tests for multidimensional arrays.
Also fix slicing as much as it can be fixed.
Simplify SplitArrayWidget's data loading.
If we aren't including the variable size one, we don't need to search
like this.
