Support Django 1.10

tzachyrm opened this issue ยท 16 comments

In Django 1.8, SubfieldBase has been deprecated and will be removed in Django 1.10.
I'm using Django 1.9 and getting "RemovedInDjango110Warning".

I'm just wondering, is this package alive?

@dcramer Are you still owning this package? Is there someone at Disqus that can be contacted about this, or would it be wiser to migrate to another package?

I can't speak to any other maintainers but we don't use django 1.10 and I don't have time to maintain thing a we're not using.

I'd like to propose to move this project to JazzBand with agreement of the author. I hope our community will help to keep this package up to date. @dcramer don't you know who is the author/owner who can discuss it?

I have a fork here: https://github.com/lutris/django-bitfield where I merged @znotdead 's PR ( #71 ) and did some additional work to update the project. My goal is to have the tests pass on all supported Django versions but I currently have failures with simple_class_factory being removed in 1.10 and some pickle voodoo in the test suite. (Test suite results here: https://travis-ci.org/lutris/django-bitfield )

There's also a Python 3 error with 1.9 but I haven't looked at it yet.
Once the project is stable it will be easier to get it merged back in the main repo, I'll accept any pull request for this.

Update: I integrated my current fork in lutris.net and pushed it to production, it seems to be doing fine.

And now all tests pass thanks to @joshowen's patches: https://travis-ci.org/lutris/django-bitfield

@dcramer, you should seriously consider giving push access to this repository to someone willing to maintain the project or at least give access to the PyPI page so someone can switch the location to a maintained branch.

@strycore If this project seems to be unmaintained then I would recommend you fork it with a new name and release.

@tail I notice you're part of the Disqus org -- any thoughts on this project?

All tests are passing on #74

This is merged to master, waiting on a release to pypi.

@joshowen thanks for fixing!! do you know when the pypi release will happen?

@christian-oudard any ETA on a pypi release?

any update on release ??

Any news about pypi release? :)
