The related_name of ForeignKey cannot be Unicode name after Django 1.8

[A-hông]

I asked in ​django-user

This code can run before django 1.7
But "related_name" got an error after django 1.8

使用者表.來源: (fields.E306) The name '使用者' is invalid related_name for field 使用者表.來源

class 來源表(models.Model):
    名 = models.CharField(max_length=100)

class 使用者表(models.Model):
    來源 = models.OneToOneField(來源表, related_name='使用者', primary_key=True, null=False)

Tim Graham said "It looks like the check added in ticket #22064 may be too strict (only allowing alphanumeric characters in related_name)."

I think using

re.match('^[^\W\d]\w*$', related_name)

instead of

re.match('^[a-zA-Z_][a-zA-Z0-9_]*$', related_name)

in django/db/models/fields/related.py

[Simon Charette]

I think we should default to the old behavior on Py2: re.match('^[^\W\d]\w*$', related_name, re.unicode if six.PY3 else 0)

While we're at it we should also replace the trailing $ by a \Z to prevent 'related_name\n' from being accepted.

I add some tests and do these in ​https://github.com/django/django/pull/4911

But how to write Unicode test like '試驗' string in python2 ?

related_name does not support unicode string in python2

[Baptiste Mispelon]

In python 3, we should probably use str.isidentifier [1] instead of coding an ad-hoc regex.

I added some notes on how make the tests work on github.
