Removed:
- Stop advertising and verifying support for Django 3.2, 4.0, 4.1

- Add support for Python 3.11
Bugfix:
- Make :meth:`~factory.django.mute_signals` mute signals during post-generation.
- :issue:`775`: Change the signature for :class:`~factory.alchemy.SQLAlchemyModelFactory`'s
_save
and_get_or_create
methods to avoid argument names clashes with a field namedsession
.
Deprecated:
:class:`~factory.django.DjangoModelFactory` will stop issuing a second call to :meth:`~django.db.models.Model.save` on the created instance when :ref:`post-generation-hooks` return a value.
To help with the transition, :class:`factory.django.DjangoModelFactory`'s
_after_postgeneration
raises a :class:`DeprecationWarning` when calling :meth:`~django.db.models.Model.save`. Inspect your :class:`~factory.django.DjangoModelFactory` subclasses:
If the :meth:`~django.db.models.Model.save` call is not needed after :class:`~factory.PostGeneration`, set :attr:`factory.django.DjangoOptions.skip_postgeneration_save` to
True
in the factory meta.Otherwise, the instance has been modified by :class:`~factory.PostGeneration` hooks and needs to be :meth:`~django.db.models.Model.save`d. Either:
- call :meth:`django.db.models.Model.save` in the :class:`~factory.PostGeneration` hook that modifies the instance, or
- override the :class:`~factory.Factory._after_postgeneration` method to :meth:`~django.db.models.Model.save` the instance.
Removed:
- Drop support for Django 2.2

_save
and_get_or_create
methods to avoid argument names clashes with a field namedsession
.
New:
- Add support for Django 3.1
- Add support for Python 3.9
Removed:
- Drop support for Django 1.11. This version is not maintained anymore.
- Drop support for Python 3.5. This version is not maintained anymore.
Deprecated:
:func:`factory.use_strategy`. Use :attr:`factory.FactoryOptions.strategy` instead. The purpose of :func:`~factory.use_strategy` duplicates the factory option. Follow PEP 20: There should be one-- and preferably only one --obvious way to do it.
:func:`~factory.use_strategy()` will be removed in the next major version.
Bug fix:
- :issue:`785` :issue:`786` :issue:`787` :issue:`788` :issue:`790` :issue:`796`: Calls to :class:`factory.Faker` and :class:`factory.django.FileField` within a :class:`~factory.Trait` or :class:`~factory.Maybe` no longer lead to a
KeyError
crash.
New:
- Allow all types of declarations in :class:`factory.Faker` calls - enables references to other faker-defined attributes.

New:
New:
- Add :attr:`factory.FactoryOptions.rename` to help handle conflicting names (:issue:`206`)
- Add support for random-yet-realistic values through fake-factory, through the :class:`factory.Faker` class.
- :class:`factory.Iterator` no longer begins iteration of its argument at import time, thus allowing to pass in a lazy iterator such as a Django queryset (i.e
factory.Iterator(models.MyThingy.objects.all())
).- Simplify imports for ORM layers, now available through a simple
factory
import, atfactory.alchemy.SQLAlchemyModelFactory
/factory.django.DjangoModelFactory

Bug fix:
- Respect custom managers in :class:`~factory.django.DjangoModelFactory` (see :issue:`192`)

Deprecation:
- Remove deprecated features from :ref:`v2.4.0`

See https://github.com/FactoryBoy/factory_boy/commit/13d310f for technical details.
Warning
Version 2.5.0 removes the 'auto-magical sequence setup' bug-and-feature. This could trigger some bugs when tests expected a non-zero sequence reference.
Warning
Version 2.5.0 removes features that were marked as deprecated in :ref:`v2.4.0 <v2.4.0>`.
All FACTORY_*
-style attributes are now declared in a class Meta:
section:
# Old-style, deprecated
class MyFactory(factory.Factory):
FACTORY_FOR = models.MyModel
FACTORY_HIDDEN_ARGS = ['a', 'b', 'c']
# New-style
class MyFactory(factory.Factory):
class Meta:
model = models.MyModel
exclude = ['a', 'b', 'c']
A simple shell command to upgrade the code would be:
# sed -i: inplace update
# grep -l: only file names, not matching lines
sed -i 's/FACTORY_FOR =/class Meta:\n model =/' $(grep -l FACTORY_FOR $(find . -name '*.py'))
This takes care of all FACTORY_FOR
occurrences; the files containing other attributes to rename can be found with grep -R FACTORY .
