Debug

Known issues

breakingIn v68, the admin_user_impersonate middleware was moved from bx_django_utils.middleware to bx_django_utils.admin_extra_views.middleware. Old imports break.

fix

Update import to from bx_django_utils.admin_extra_views.middleware import AdminUserImpersonateMiddleware

affects: >=68

deprecatedThe function 'generate_key' in bx_django_utils.crypto was deprecated in v80; use Python's secrets module directly instead.

fix

Replace with import secrets; secrets.token_hex(32)

affects: >=80

gotchaThe package name is 'bx-django-utils' on PyPI but 'bx_django_utils' when importing. Common typo using hyphen in import.

fix

Use import with underscores, e.g., from bx_django_utils import ...

affects: all
