Version History and Release Notes¶

Releases of SaaS Pegasus: The Django SaaS Boilerplate are documented here.

Version 0.18.1¶

This hotfix release fixes a bug affecting React builds that caused the sign up page to be broken.

Oct 3, 2021

Version 0.18¶

This release adds a new Django + HTMX implementation of Pegasus’s team management functionality. Now, you can choose whether to use React or HTMX for your teams UI.

This choice is configured by the new “Front-End Framework” setting in your project’s Pegasus settings. The setting currently only impacts the Teams UI (and has no impact on Pegasus builds that don’t use teams), but will be extended in future releases.

The HTMX teams UI also has a few user-facing improvements:

You can now choose a role when inviting new team members.
Team deletion has moved to the team details page, and now has a confirmation dialog.
Editing the team name and ID now require the team admin role.

Additionally, there are bug fixes and code-related improvements throughout the teams functionality:

Fixed “sign out” link on invitation acceptance page.
Improved workflow when attempting to accept an invitation to a team you already belong to.
Broke the teams views.py file into multiple Python modules.
Set team_membership on request object in team decorator functions, so it can be easily accessed in views/templates.
Cleaned up bits of HTML in existing teams React implementation.
Various doc strings, type hints, and formatting cleanup throughout code.
Combined accept_invitation and accept_invitation_confirm into a single view.
Remove a few teams-related templates when not building with teams enabled.

Finally, there were minor updates to other functionality:

Bootstrap JavaScript is now built and used from the local install instead of using a pinned CDN. (Bootstrap builds only)
Extract Mailchimp mailing list logic to its own module and add mailing list documentation.
Fix quirks in HTMX example when back-end validation fails.
Minor cleanup of HTMX example code.
Rename payments and tasks view modules to payments_views and tasks_views.
Upgrade Django to 3.2.7.
Changed default value of USE_HTTPS_IN_ABSOLUTE_URLS setting to False

Potentially breaking changes

The change of the default value of USE_HTTPS_IN_ABSOLUTE_URLS could impact production environments that have not overridden this setting. In particular, it would cause Stripe checkout / portal callbacks and invitation emails to have http links instead of https links.

To fix this, add USE_HTTPS_IN_ABSOLUTE_URLS = True to all production settings files / environments.

Sep 28, 2021

Version 0.17.1¶

This fixes a crashing issue when resending team invitations.

Sep 8, 2021

Version 0.17¶

This release adds an HTMX demo, a Teams example app, and more.

This video provides a 4-minute overview of the key features, or read on for details.

The HTMX object demo

The object demo application now has an htmx implementation. HTMX is a library that allows you to build rich, single-page, interactive experiences by adding HTML attributes.

The provided demo application is a single page app with no native JavaScript, backed by Django forms.

The Teams Example app

This release also adds a Teams example app, which has Create, Read, Update, Delete (CRUD) views for an example model that is part of a team (called a “Player”).

As part of this work, a new base model class, BaseTeamModel was added which can be extended to create models that belong to a Team.

Additionally, two view mixin classes, LoginAndTeamRequiredMixin and TeamAdminRequiredMixin were added, which can be used to easily create class-based model views on Team models. A test suite for these mixins was also added.

More details can be found in the Teams documentation.

A big thanks to Peter Cherna, who’s Pegasus example apps was a big inspiration for this example.

Other changes

Add generic breadcrumbs CSS classes compatible with Bulma, Bootstrap and Tailwind (used by teams example)
Default all Pegasus apps to using BigAutoField instead of AutoField (see upgrade notes)
Use f-strings instead of string templates in management commands
Reduce indentation level in some html template files

Upgrade notes

The default ID for all Pegasus models was changed from AutoField to BigAutoField. If you are upgrading a project using AutoField you should not merge any changes to initial migration files in the affected apps. Then you can either:

To change your apps from AutoField to BigAutoField, run ./manage.py makemigrations and ./manage.py migrate
To keep using AutoField, change the setting back to AutoField in apps.py for all Pegasus apps.

Aug 24, 2021

Version 0.16.2¶

This release upgrades django-hijack from 2.3 to 3.0 and adds hijack links to the admin site.

Aug 11, 2021

Version 0.16.1¶

This minor release fixes styling issues with Tailwind builds that were accidentally introduced in 0.16.

Aug 9, 2021

Version 0.16¶

This is a grab-bag release of mostly cleanup work and bug fixes.

Please review the breaking changes closely if you are upgrading an existing project! Not doing so could lead to unexpected behavior and demo data loss!

Potentially breaking changes:

Changed the login_and_team_required and team_admin_required view decorators to no longer allow superusers to access the views. It is recommended to use the new user impersonation feature to allow superusers to access teams they don’t belong to.
Removed user_can_access_team and user_can_administer_team helper functions which provided team access to superusers.
Removed attrs library dependency and switched its usages to dataclasses.
The Employee example data model has moved, and running migrate will drop all of your demo Employee data.

New: Improved Django form support:

Added a Django forms implementation of the employee / object demo
Rename bootstrap_form_fields and bulma_form_fields templatetags to form_fields if not using multiple-css-framework support
Add render_form_fields helper function to render an entire form. (Note: this currently only supports text-style, checkbox, and select input types.)
Add render_checkbox_input to bootstrap form rendering tags
Added a basic non-model form example

Fixes:

Fix cryptography build issue affecting Heroku docker deployments
Improve textarea styling on Bootstrap forms
Better default styling of checkboxes in Bootstrap forms.
Don’t require that team_slug be the first argument to a url to use the team-based decorator functions.

Cleanup:

Upgrade Django to 3.2.6
Remove redundant null=True from user avatars
Added more type hints
Split object / employee example out into its own app and template folder.
Added help text to employee example model fields
Changed some navigation and text around the employee app example
Remove inline style declarations from a few examples
Added some instructions about initializing your database to the README
Update migrations to be compatible with latest Django / Pegasus code

Upgrade notes:

If you receive a warning like this when generating Database migrations:

You are trying to change the nullable field ‘avatar’ on customuser to non-nullable without a default; we can’t do that (the database needs something to populate existing rows).

It is safe to choose option 2, “Ignore for now…”. There won’t be any NULL values in the database, since Django automatically populates FileFields with an empty string.

Aug 6, 2021

Version 0.15¶

Version 0.15 is a major release with two big features: Stripe Checkout and User Impersonation.

For 3-minute summary you can watch the video below, or read on for details.

Stripe Checkout Support

Now you can use Stripe Checkout for payments instead of - or in addition to - the Stripe Elements-based embedded UI. Stripe Checkout support has been added to the subscriptions page, as well as the payment example. You can build new Pegasus projects with Checkout, Elements, or toggle between them via a settings.py setting.

User Impersonation

This release also adds optional user impersonation functionality for superusers, allowing admins and support staff to “login as” another user with a few clicks. This is a great tool for troubleshooting user-specific issues. This feature depends on django-hijack and can be disabled at build time.

Other updates

Make http/https in absolute URLs (e.g. email invitations) configurable via the USE_HTTPS_IN_ABSOLUTE_URLS setting
Start adding type hints to the codebase, primarily in helper functions. More coming soon!
Added more tests for teams helper functions
Split out subscription/views.py into multiple files to make it clearer which views affect which functionality.
Break upgrade_subscription.html into multiple files to support elements and checkout-based flows.
Improve default string representation of user model
Improve the default styling of select widgets (Bootstrap builds only)
Clean up doc strings and code for team API permission helpers (teams builds only)
Rename teams.util to teams.helpers to be consistent with other apps (teams builds only)
Fix issue with apps/subscriptions/__init__.py not being created for certain configurations
Various minor cleanups of whitespace, url ordering, etc.

July 22, 2021

Version 0.14.5¶

Another grab-bag of minor fixes and improvements.

Reduce scope of hiding file inputs to just the profile upload form
Add NoNewUsersAccountAdapter to allow disabling public sign ups for an app
Extract Bulma and Bootstrap form rendering to helper template tags
Fix subscription details start date display (subscriptions builds only)
Explicitly set DEFAULT_AUTO_FIELD to AutoField in settings to remove runtime warnings.
Minor README improvements
Upgrade Django to 3.2.5

Changes only affecting builds with teams enabled:

Fix error on sign up if email passes front-end validation but fails back-end validation
Change /teams/ URL to go to the teams management page instead of API docs
Improve styling of teams page when no teams exist on Bootstrap
Fix React warning in teams JavaScript

July 15, 2021

Version 0.14.4¶

A very minor release:

Don’t include djstripe and associated settings in INSTALLED_APPS if not using subscriptions

June 30, 2021

Version 0.14.3¶

A very minor release:

Update Django to 3.2.4
Remove DEFAULT_AUTO_FIELD declaration from settings. This was causing issues with allauth migrations being generated, as a result of this issue. Until more libraries have worked around these migration issues, Pegasus will just ship with the default setting.

June 17, 2021

Version 0.14.2¶

This release upgrades dj-stripe to version 2.4.4 which should fix cross-environment migration issues.

Upgrade notes:

Projects using a “clean” 0.14 or 0.14.1 release may have been affected by this issue in dj-stripe where running makemigrations automatically generated a migration file inside the dj-stripe library code. Local app migrations would then add a dependency to this migration, which would not be available on other environments.

This often manifested as an error along the lines of the following when setting up a second environment:

django.db.migrations.exceptions.NodeNotFoundError: 
  Migration .0003_auto_20210524_1532 dependencies reference nonexistent parent node ('djstripe', '0008_auto_20210521_2314')`

To fix this there are a few steps:

You should explicitly uninstall and reinstall dj-stripe instead of just installing requirements to ensure the generated migration file is removed. pip uninstall dj-stripe && pip install dj-stripe==2.4.4
You should rebuild your own app’s migrations to no longer depend on the generated dj-stripe migration, by deleting the bad files and re-running makemigrations on a fresh environment.
You will need to “fake” migrations for any existing DBs, by manually deleting relevant rows from the django_migrations table and then running ./manage migrate <appname> --fake for each affected app.

Please reach out for support on Slack if you run into any issues with this, and I’m happy to help!

May 26, 2021

Version 0.14.1¶

This is a minor release including the latest Django security updates, the official Bootstrap 5.0 version, and a few small features and fixes.

Add password confirmation field to sign up pages if configured by allauth
Add project_settings example for passing project-level settings to templates via context processor
Update bootstrap to 5.0.1.

June 5, 2020

Version 0.6.1¶

Upgrade requests to version 0.23.0 to fix installation version conflict.

May 26, 2020

Version 0.6.0¶

This release begins the move of Pegasus’s core functionality out of the “pegasus” app and into the user-defined apps. It’s a relatively big release from a code perspective, although there is very little new / changed in terms of functionality.

Philosophy¶

The philosophy guiding this change is “your starting code base should be as understandable as possible”.

Historically, Pegasus has attempted to separate “Pegasus-owned” files from “user-owned” files. The thinking behind this structure was that Pegasus upgrades and code merges would be as easy as possible since - in theory - users would not need to modify anything in the “Pegasus-owned” space.

In practice, the line between “Pegasus-owned” and “user-owned” was fuzzy, and customizing an application often required editing files in the “Pegasus-owned” space. So the benefit was not realized.

Furthermore, this split caused the initial codebase to be more confusing, since core functionality was split across two places.

Changelog¶

Changes related to the restructure above include:

Moved all base templates from templates/pegasus/ to templates/web/
Moved team invitation templates from templates/pegasus/email/ to templates/teams/email/
Merged pegasus/apps/users and all related code into apps/users
Merged pegasus/apps/teams and all related code into apps/teams
Removed pegasus/apps/components and moved code to more specific apps - further details below
Moved promote_user_to_superuser management command into users app
Moved bootstrap_subscriptions management command into subscriptions app
Moved google_analytics_id context processor to web app
Moved meta.py from pegasus app to web app
Moved pegasus/utils/subscriptions.py to apps/subscriptions/helpers.py
Added apps.utils and moved most of pegasus.utils there
Moved pegasus/decorators.py to apps/utils/decorators.py
Moved PegasusBaseModel to apps.utils and renamed to BaseModel
Removed unused stripe.py file (replacing functionality with equivalent functions in djstripe)
Removed “Pegasus” from API url names
Moved non-example JS imports out of pegasus/Pegasus.js and into App.js
Lowercased (and kebab-cased) all JS file names for consistency
Moved sass files from assets/styles/pegasus, to assets/styles/app
Renamed various layout classes, e.g. pegasus-two-column, pegasus-message, etc. to app-[name]
Moved static/images/pegasus/undraw/ folder to static/images/undraw
Removed unused pegasus/teams/serializers.py file

Other changes and fixes include:

Fix accepting an invitation if you’re already signed in
Remove subscription-related fields from team and user models if not using subscriptions
Only ship base migration files for users and teams, and have applications manage their own migrations
Improved checks and error-handling around accepting invitations multiple times

Externalized styles on progress bar demo

A Note on Database Migrations¶

Historically, Pegasus has shipped with complete database migrations. However, maintaining a set of migrations for each possible Pegasus configuration or forcing all configurations to use the same DB schema has proven unwieldy. Thus, migrations are now expected to be managed outside of Pegasus.

For new users, the only change is that prior to running ./manage.py migrate for the first time, you must first run ./manage.py makemigrations.

For existing users you can either keep your current migrations folder, or you can run ./manage.py makemigrations and then ./manage.py migrate --fake. If you have changed the user or team models, then you should keep your current folder.
