Summary: Changeset 16053 breaks a few views testsChangeset r16053 breaks a few views tests

comment:2 by Carl Meyer, 13 years ago

Owner: changed from nobody to Carl Meyer

Interesting, these tests pass when the full suite is run, but fail when just the view tests are run. Suggests a problem with the tests, I'll take a look.

comment:3 by Carl Meyer, 13 years ago

Has patch: set

Ok, two separate problems here. Both are fixed by this github branch, one in each commit: https://github.com/carljm/django/compare/master...t15903

First problem is that I missed a case in r16053, and not-installed models were being left out of any related models' related-objects cache. Meaning that two related models would look different (no reverse relation introspectable through _meta) if not installed than if installed. First commit fixes this, with a test (and adds a couple tests to flesh out the r16053 tests).

Second problem is that the views tests, when run standalone, were causing various other test apps to be imported due to url-reversing. This caused the first problem to show up in admin_views (because its models were being imported although it wasn't installed) only when the views tests were run without the admin_views tests. The second commit in the above branch fixes that particular test-app coupling by using the "urls" parameter of a TestCase.

I'll commit these separately for clarity, but I'll wait for a review from jezdez first, since this touches the app-cache and may affect work on the app-loading branch.

Refs #15903 -- Added a per-TestCase urlconf to reduce coupling between test apps.

comment:6 by Luke Plant, 13 years ago

Carl:

I think there is still an issue with this. I've experienced some very difficult to debug problems with a project of mine, since [16053]. The problem only occurs when running the devserver with DEBUG=True (which cause the validation routines to run, I think this is connected), and appears to be some ManyToMany fields missing from the model ._meta definition. All of the models involved are installed AFAICS, but span a number of apps. The behaviour changes if I change the order of items in INSTALLED_APPS. Since the latest change, [16107], things have improved, in that with the right order of INSTALLED_APPS I can actually get things to work, but it should work in any order.

(I haven't been able to produce a minimal test case yet - I think that will require a lot of work).

But based on your last change, I tried the following in the _fill_related_many_to_many_cache() method:

             for f in klass._meta.local_many_to_many:                                  
                 if f.rel and not isinstance(f.rel.to, str) and self == f.rel.to._meta:
                     cache[RelatedObject(f.rel.to, klass, f)] = None                   

and it did fix my problem. It also worked with get_models(only_installed=False).

However, I haven't had the time to really understand your changes here or what is going on to know if this is the correct fix (or indeed, if it is actually a problem with my project's code).

Hi Luke,

Replying to lukeplant:

I think there is still an issue with this. I've experienced some very difficult to debug problems with a project of mine, since [16053]. The problem only occurs when running the devserver with DEBUG=True (which cause the validation routines to run, I think this is connected), and appears to be some ManyToMany fields missing from the model ._meta definition. All of the models involved are installed AFAICS, but span a number of apps. The behaviour changes if I change the order of items in INSTALLED_APPS. Since the latest change, [16107], things have improved, in that with the right order of INSTALLED_APPS I can actually get things to work, but it should work in any order.

(I haven't been able to produce a minimal test case yet - I think that will require a lot of work).

Sorry about this, and thanks for the report. It is indeed just another call to get_models that should be using only_installed=False that I missed; your one-line fix is correct (without changing include_auto_created, which isn't related). I thought I'd grepped for all these calls and checked them, but clearly I failed - I've done so again and this time I think I've got them all for real!

I'm not sure why this is showing up in your code with all the relevant apps in INSTALLED_APPS, or why it would be dependent on order of INSTALLED_APPS. The app-cache fully populates itself at the beginning of get_models, so any models whose app is in INSTALLED_APPS should be present in the return value of get_models(only_installed=True). Filling the related cache should use only_installed=False regardless, so these relationships are still reported in _meta even for not-installed models, which makes it a moot issue (although it would still be interesting to know why those related models weren't being returned with only_installed=True if they are in INSTALLED_APPS, if you can narrow it down at all).

comment:8 by Carl Meyer, 13 years ago

Fixed this additional case in r16108, fat-fingered the Refs in the commit message.

comment:9 by Aymeric Augustin, 10 years ago

UI/UX: unset

get_models(only_installed=False) is next on my list of things to refactor -- read: remove -- in the new app loading. I'd like to get rid of this complexity (#21677) and eventually deprecate the ability to use models that aren't in an installed application (#21680).

There's no conclusive answer on why Luke hit that last problem, but I believe it has to do with a complex import sequence, where get_models was called on a partially populated app cache. Our best chance to improve the situation is to move the population of the app cache earlier (#21676) so that all models get imported from populate_models() -- rather than having populate_models() triggered by the import of a models module.

In 9f13c3328199d2fa70235cdc63bb06b1efc5b117:

Removed the only_installed argument of Apps.get_models.
