3.6.0

Added

• Built-in Single Page Application (SPA) support!
  • reactpy_django.router.django_router can be used to render your Django application as a SPA.
• SEO compatible rendering!
  • settings.py:REACTPY_PRERENDER can be set to True to make components pre-render by default.
  • Or, you can enable it on individual components via the template tag: {% component "..." prerender="True" %}.
• New view_to_iframe feature!
  • reactpy_django.components.view_to_iframe uses an <iframe> to render a Django view.
  • reactpy_django.utils.register_iframe tells ReactPy which views view_to_iframe can use.
• New Django User related features!
  • reactpy_django.hooks.use_user can be used to access the current user.
  • reactpy_django.hooks.use_user_data provides a simplified interface for storing user key-value data.
  • reactpy_django.decorators.user_passes_test is inspired by the equivalent Django decorator, but ours works with ReactPy components.
  • settings.py:REACTPY_AUTO_RELOGIN will cause component WebSocket connections to automatically re-login users that are already authenticated. This is useful to continuously update last_login timestamps and refresh the Django login session.

Changed

• Renamed undocumented utility function ComponentPreloader to RootComponentFinder.
• It is now recommended to call as_view() when using view_to_component or view_to_iframe with Class Based Views.
• For thread safety, thread_sensitive=True has been enabled in all sync_to_async functions where ORM queries are possible.
• reactpy_django.hooks.use_mutation now has a __call__ method. So rather than writing my_mutation.execute(...), you can now write my_mutation(...).

Deprecated

• The compatibility argument on reactpy_django.components.view_to_component is deprecated.
  • Use view_to_iframe as a replacement.
• reactpy_django.components.view_to_component usage as a decorator is deprecated.
  • Check the docs on how to use view_to_component as a function instead.
• reactpy_django.decorators.auth_required is deprecated.
  • Use reactpy_django.decorators.user_passes_test instead.
  • An equivalent to auth_required's default is @user_passes_test(lambda user: user.is_active).
