• Included latest DRF versions
• Sorted requirements
• Used package>=#.#,<#.# rather than package==#.#.# where it made sense to do so

• Corrected errors and warnings in tests introduced by updating dependencies
• Generated updated benchmarks.html file

Other

• Bumped package version number
• Fixed a couple linting issues

@aleontiev @suavesav @chdastolfo this PR should bring just about everything in the package up-to-date until April 2023 when Django 4.2 LTS comes out.

If you have any questions, concerns, or recommendations for this PR, please let me know. Thank you!

[aleontiev]

@OmenApps thanks for your contribution. Changes look ok, but tox is failing on many builds:

• All of 3.6 (we can possibly drop support here, @suavesav what do you think?)
• Many of the 3.7 (we definitely want to keep 3.7 compatibility)
• A few of the 3.8/3.9/3.10 cases (looks related to DRF 3.11?)

[suavesav]

yep, can drop 3.6!

[JackAtOmenApps]

Hopefully fixed all issues

• Minimum DRF of 3.11.2 since prior versions use the old from django.conf.urls import url
• Maximum DRF 3.14 (the new version as of today
• Lower the flake8 version to meet CI need
• Remove Python 3.6

Looks like tests can't run. Got the following error: "Could not find a usable config.yml, you may have revoked the CircleCI OAuth app. Please sign out of CircleCI and log back in with your VCS before triggering a new pipeline."

Hi, I was wondering if these changes will get merged anytime soon.

[lihuafractadevops]

When can we merge this feature? There are several pending issues from this issue. Thanks in advance.

[JackAtOmenApps]

@aleontiev Any update on use of CircleCI? Errors out with "Could not find a usable config.yml, you may have revoked the CircleCI OAuth app."

[esp4ik]

Any updates? :)

[JackAtOmenApps]

Bumping. @aleontiev or @suavesav can we push this?

[aleontiev]

@OmenApps let me take a look at the Circle config issue; once we can fix the pipeline this should be good to go

[aleontiev]

@OmenApps I've resolved conflicts with master and re-triggered the tests (we are on Github Actions now, Circle is no longer relevant here) but still seeing some failing tests:

https://github.com/AltSchool/dynamic-rest/actions/runs/3499817258/jobs/5861799360

Some are on Python 3.6, which can be dropped. But some on 3.7, 3.8, 3.9 with Django 4.x

[Mathieu-Dirkx]

I'm waiting on this to merge, so I took a look at what is keeping this from merging.

Looking in to the failed tests I notice that many of the failed tests for python 3.6 and 3.7 will never pass. Django 4.0 and above does not support Python 3.6 and 3.7, Django 3.2 is the last series to support Python 3.6 and 3.7 Link to the announcement: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.0/releases/4.0/#python-compatibility

[esp4ik]

Seems that I've mistaken about source of problem. So, I just removed my previous comment.

More deep dive gives next: DRF supports Django 4 since 3.13 see release notes

Therefore, in addition to @Mathieu-Dirkx I would like to suggest also drop DRF < 3.13 (or 3.12 since dynamic_rest tests run successfully)

[Abhi5h3k]

dynamic-rest 2.1.2 requires Django<4,>=2.2, but you have django 4.1.5 which is incompatible.

Hey, Is there any solution for now? Need to upgrade my project to Django 4+

[aleontiev]

Opened a new PR here with test matrix fixes: #345

Thanks @Mathieu-Dirkx and @esp4ik for your insight into the compatibility issues and apologize for the delay; at AltSchool we are still on Django 3 so we haven't been focused on Django 4 compatibility yet; for this reason, we still have to support the combination of Py3.7/DRF3.11/Dj3 which probably looks rather outdated from the perspective of newer projects :)

When will this release be published? We are coming up on EOL for Django 3.2 soon.
