but puts the changelog in a more data driven format, so that we can begin linking version directives with them as well as with migration documents, once those are also moved into sphinx.
- build a new Sphinx extension that allows dialect info to be entered as directives which is then rendered consistently throughout all dialect/dbapi sections - break out the "empty_strings" requirement for oracle test
- begin consolidating docs for dialects to be more self contained - add a separate section for "external" dialects - not sure how we're going to go with this yet.
that works in terms of the "impl" type by default.
This is a behavioral change for those TypeDecorator
classes that specify a custom __init__ method; those
types will need to re-define __repr__() if they need
__repr__() to provide a faithful constructor representation.
[ticket:2594]
"tuple" rows that contain
types which aren't hashable, by setting the flag
"hashable=False" on the corresponding TypeEngine object
in use. Custom types that return unhashable types
(typically lists) can set this flag to False.
[ticket:2592]
- [bug] Applying a column expression to a select
statement using a label with or without other
modifying constructs will no longer "target" that
expression to the underlying Column; this affects
ORM operations that rely upon Column targeting
in order to retrieve results. That is, a query
like query(User.id, User.id.label('foo')) will now
track the value of each "User.id" expression separately
instead of munging them together. It is not expected
that any users will be impacted by this; however,
a usage that uses select() in conjunction with
query.from_statement() and attempts to load fully
composed ORM entities may not function as expected
if the select() named Column objects with arbitrary
.label() names, as these will no longer target to
the Column objects mapped by that entity.
[ticket:2591]
to help with generative building. Also slight adjustment
regarding how SS "correlates" columns; the new methodology
no longer applies meaning to the underlying
Table column being selected. This improves
some fairly esoteric situations, and the logic
that was there didn't seem to have any purpose.
- [feature] Some support for auto-rendering of a
relationship join condition based on the mapped
attribute, with usage of core SQL constructs.
E.g. select([SomeClass]).where(SomeClass.somerelationship)
would render SELECT from "someclass" and use the
primaryjoin of "somerelationship" as the WHERE
clause. This changes the previous meaning
of "SomeClass.somerelationship" when used in a
core SQL context; previously, it would "resolve"
to the parent selectable, which wasn't generally
useful. Related to [ticket:2245].
mapped classes allows that unmapped classes
can be specified for instance- and mapper-events.
The established events will be automatically
set up on subclasses of that class when the
propagate=True flag is passed, and the
events will be set up for that class itself
if and when it is ultimately mapped.
[ticket:2585]
- [bug] The instrumentation events class_instrument(),
class_uninstrument(), and attribute_instrument()
will now fire off only for descendant classes
of the class assigned to listen(). Previously,
an event listener would be assigned to listen
for all classes in all cases regardless of the
"target" argument passed. [ticket:2590]
String types. When present, renders as
COLLATE <collation>. This to support the
COLLATE keyword now supported by several
databases including MySQL, SQLite, and Postgresql.
[ticket:2276]
- [change] The Text() type renders the length
given to it, if a length was specified.
accepts "fst" argument which is the new
"fractional seconds" specifier for recent
MySQL versions. The datatype will interpret
a microseconds portion received from the driver,
however note that at this time most/all MySQL
DBAPIs do not support returning this value.
[ticket:2534]
- attempted to modernize the types tests in test_mysql a little, though has a long
way to go
