1.1.0 Release Notes¶
Channels 1.1.0 introduces a couple of major but backwards-compatible changes, including most notably the inclusion of a standard, framework-agnostic JavaScript library for easier integration with your site.
Major Changes¶
Channels now includes a JavaScript wrapper that wraps reconnection and multiplexing for you on the client side. For more on how to use it, see the javascript documentation.
Test classes have been moved from
channels.tests
tochannels.test
to better match Django. Old imports fromchannels.tests
will continue to work but will trigger a deprecation warning, andchannels.tests
will be removed completely in version 1.3.
Minor Changes & Bugfixes¶
Bindings now support non-integer fields for primary keys on models.
The
enforce_ordering
decorator no longer suffers a race condition where it would drop messages under high load.runserver
no longer errors if thestaticfiles
app is not enabled in Django.
Backwards Incompatible Changes¶
None.
