django-compat

library1.0.15pypypiunverified

A compatibility layer for Django versions 1.4 through 1.11, providing backports and forwards-compatibility for features across major Django releases. Version 1.0.15 is the latest, likely in maintenance mode as Django 2.0+ is supported natively. Release cadence is low, with occasional updates for new Django versions.

Debug

Known issues

breakingThe package is named `django-compat` on PyPI but the import module is `django_compat`. Using `import compat` will raise ModuleNotFoundError.

fix

Use `from django_compat import ...` or `import django_compat` instead of `compat`.

affects: all

deprecatedDjango 1.11 and earlier are end-of-life. django-compat is only useful for projects stuck on old Django versions. For Django 2.0+, use native Django APIs.

fix

Upgrade Django and remove django-compat dependency.

affects: 1.0.x

gotchaSome backported functions (like `render_to_string` with new signature) only work on specific Django versions. Check the compatibility docs before relying on a feature.

fix

Consult docs/compatibility.py in the repo to verify feature support for your Django version.
