0.16.13

Default install of tortoise-orm now installs with no C-dependencies, if you want to use the C accelerators, please do a pip install tortoise-orm[accel] instead.
Added <instance>.clone() method that will create a cloned instance in memory. To persist it you still need to call .save()
.clone() will raise a ParamsError if tortoise can't generate a primary key. In that case do a .clone(pk=<newval>)
If manually setting the primary key value to None and the primary key can be automatically generated, this will create a new record. We however still recommend the .clone() method instead.
.save() can be forced to do a create by setting force_create=True
.save() can be forced to do an update by setting force_update=True
Setting update_fields for a .save() operation will strongly prefer to do an update if possible

0.16.7

Added preliminary support for Python 3.9
TruncationTestCase now properly quotes table names when it clears them out.
Add model signals support
Added app_label to test initializer(...) and TORTOISE_TEST_APP as test environment variable.

0.16.6

Warning

This is a security fix release. We recommend everyone update.

Security fixes

Fixed SQL injection issue in MySQL
Fixed SQL injection issues in MySQL when using contains, starts_with or ends_with filters (and their case-insensitive counterparts)
Fixed malformed SQL for PostgreSQL and SQLite when using contains, starts_with or ends_with filters (and their case-insensitive counterparts)

Other changes

Added support for partial models:

To create a partial model, one can do a .only(<fieldnames-as-strings>) as part of the QuerySet. This will create model instances that only have those values fetched.

Persisting changes on the model is allowed only when:
- All the fields you want to update is specified in <model>.save(update_fields=[...])
- You included the Model primary key in the .only(...)
To protect against common mistakes we ensure that errors get raised:
- If you access a field that is not specified, you will get an AttributeError.
- If you do a <model>.save() a IncompleteInstanceError will be raised as the model is, as requested, incomplete.
- If you do a <model>.save(update_fields=[...]) and you didn't include the primary key in the .only(...), then IncompleteInstanceError will be raised indicating that updates can't be done without the primary key being known.
- If you do a <model>.save(update_fields=[...]) and one of the fields in update_fields was not in the .only(...), then IncompleteInstanceError as that field is not available to be updated.

Fixed bad SQL generation when doing a .values() query over a Foreign Key
Added <model>.update_from_dict({...}) that will mass update values safely from a dictionary
Fixed processing URL encoded password in connection string

0.16.5

Moved Tortoise.describe_model(<MODEL>, ...) to <MODEL>.describe(...)
Deprecated Tortoise.describe_model()
Fix for generate_schemas param being ignored in tortoise.contrib.quart.register_tortoise
Fix join query with source_field param

0.16.4

More consistent escaping of db columns, fixes using SQL reserved keywords as field names with a function.
Fix the aggregates using the wrong side of the join when doing a self-referential aggregation.
Fix F functions wrapped forgetting about distinct=True

0.16.3

Fixed invalid var IN () SQL generated using __in= and __not_in filters.
Fix bug with order_by on nested fields
Fix joining with self by reverse-foreign-key for filtering and annotation

0.16.2

Default values() & values_list() now includes annotations.
Annotations over joins now work correctly with values() & values_list()
Ensure GROUP BY precedes HAVING to ensure that filtering by aggregates work correctly.
Fix bug with join query with aggregation
Cast BooleanField values correctly on SQLite & MySQL

0.16.1

QuerySetSingle now has better code completion
Created Pydantic models will now have the basic validation elements:
- required is correctly populated for required fields
- nullable is added to the schema where nulls are accepted
- maxLength for CharFields
- minimum & maximum values for integer fields
To get Pydantic to handle nullable/default fields correctly one should do a **user.dict(exclude_unset=True) when passing values to a Model class.
Added FastAPI helper that is based on the starlette helper but optionally adds helpers to catch and report with proper error DoesNotExist and IntegrityError Tortoise exceptions.
Allows a Pydantic model to exclude all read-only fields by setting exclude_readonly=True when calling pydantic_model_creator.
a Tortoise PydanticModel now provides two extra helper functions:
- from_queryset: Returns a List[PydanticModel] which is the format that e.g. FastAPI expects
- from_queryset_single: allows one to avoid calling await multiple times to get the object and all its related items.

0.16.0

Caution!

This release drops support for Python 3.6:

Tortoise ORM now requires a minimum of CPython 3.7

New features:

Model docstrings and #: comments directly preceding Field definitions are now used as docstrings and DDL descriptions.

This is now cleaned and carried as part of the docstring parameter in describe_model(...)

If one doesn't explicitly specify a Field description= or Model Meta.table_description= then we default to the first line as the description. This is done because a description is submitted to the DB, and needs to be short (depending on DB, 63 chars) in size.

Usage example:

class Something(Model):
    """
    A Docstring.

    Some extra info.
    """

    # A regular comment
    name = fields.CharField(max_length=50)
    #: A docstring comment
    chars = fields.CharField(max_length=50, description="Some chars")
    #: A docstring comment
    #: Some more detail
    blip = fields.CharField(max_length=50)

# When looking at the describe model:
{
    "description": "A Docstring.",
    "docstring": "A Docstring.\n\nSome extra info.",
    ...
    "data_fields": [
        {
            "name": "name",
            ...
            "description": null,
            "docstring": null
        },
        {
            "name": "chars",
            ...
            "description": "Some chars",
            "docstring": "A docstring comment"
        },
        {
            "name": "blip",
            ...
            "description": "A docstring comment",
            "docstring": "A docstring comment\nSome more detail"
        }
    ]
}

Early Partial Init of models.

We now have an early init of models, which can be useful when needing Models that are not bound to a DB, but otherwise complete. e.g. Schema generation without needing to be properly set up.

Usage example:

# Lets say you defined your models in "some/models.py", and "other/ddef.py"
# And you are going to use them in the "model" namespace:
Tortoise.init_models(["some.models", "other.ddef"], "models")

# Now the models will have relationships built, so introspection of schema will be comprehensive

Pydantic serialisation.

We now include native support for automatically building a Pydantic model from Tortoise ORM models. This will correctly model:
- Data Fields
- Relationships (FK/O2O/M2M)
- Callables
At this stage we only support serialisation, not deserialisation.

For mode information, please see :ref:`contrib_pydantic`

Allow usage of F expressions to in annotations. (#301)
Now negative number with limit(...) and offset(...) raise ParamsError. (#306)
Allow usage of Function to queryset.update(). (#308)
Add ability to supply distinct flag to Aggregate (#312)

Bugfixes:

Fix default type of JSONField

Removals:

Removed tortoise.aggregation as this was deprecated since 0.14.0
Removed start_transaction as it has been broken since 0.15.0
Removed support for Python 3.6 / PyPy-3.6, as it has been broken since 0.15.0

If you still need Python 3.6 support, you can install tortoise-orm<0.16 as we will still backport critical bugfixes to the 0.15 branch for a while.

0.15.11

Added ordering option for model Meta class to apply default ordering

0.15.10

Bumped requirements to cater for newer feature use (#282)

0.15.9

Alias Foreign Key joins as we can have both self-referencing and duplicate joins to the same table. This generates SQL that differentiates between which instance of the table to work with.

0.15.8

TextField now recommends usage of CharField if wanting unique indexing instead of just saying "indexing not supported"
.count() now honours offset and limit
Testing un-awaited ForeignKeyField as a boolean expression will automatically resolve as False if it is None
Awaiting a nullable ForeignKeyField won't touch the DB if it is None

Changed TextField to use LONGTEXT for MySQL to allow for larger than 64KB of text.
De-duplicate index if specified on both index=true and as part of indexes
Primary Keyed TextField is marked as deprecated. We can't guarantee that it will be properly indexed or unique in all cases.
One can now disable the backwards relation for FK/O2O relations by passing related_name=False
One can now pass a PK value to a generated field, and Tortoise ORM will use that as the PK as expected. This allows one to have a model that has a autonumber PK, but setting it explicitly if required.

0.15.5

Refactored Fields:

Fields have been refactored, for better maintenance. There should be no change for most users.
- More accurate auto-completion.
- Fields now contain their own SQL schema by dialect, which significantly simplifies adding field types.
- describe_model() now returns the DB type, and dialect overrides.

JSONField will now automatically use python-rapidjson as an accelerator if it is available.
DecimalField and aggregations on it, now behaves much more like expected on SQLite (#256)
Check whether charset name is valid for the MySQL connection (#261)
Default DB driver parameters are now applied consistently, if you use the URI schema or manual.

Don't generate a schema if there is no models (#254)
Emit a RuntimeWarning when a module has no models to import (#254)
Allow passing in a custom SSL context (#255)

0.15.3

Added OneToOneField implementation:

OneToOneField describes a one to one relation between two models. It can be set from the primary side only, but resolved from both sides in the same way.

describe_model(...) now also reports OneToOne relations in both directions.

Usage example:
```
event: fields.OneToOneRelation[Event] = fields.OneToOneField(
    "models.Event", on_delete=fields.CASCADE, related_name="address"
)
```

Prefetching is done concurrently now, sending all prefetch requests at the same time instead of in sequence.
Enable foreign key enforcement on SQLite for builds where it was optional.

0.15.2

The auto_now_add argument of DatetimeField is handled correctly in the SQLite backend.
unique_together now creates named constrains, to prevent the DB from auto-assigning a potentially non-unique constraint name.
Filtering by an auto_now field doesn't replace the filter value with now() anymore.

0.15.1

Handle OR'ing a blank Q() correctly (#240)

0.15.0

New features:

Pooling has been implemented, allowing for multiple concurrent databases and all the benefits that comes with it.
- Enabled by default for databases that support it (mysql and postgres) with a minimum pool size of 1, and a maximum of 5
- Not supported by sqlite
- Can be changed by passing the minsize and maxsize connection parameters
Many small performance tweaks:
- Overhead of query generation has been reduced by about 6%
- Bulk inserts are ensured to be wrapped in a transaction for >50% speedup
- PostgreSQL prepared queries now use a LRU cache for significant >2x speedup on inserts/updates/deletes
DateField & DatetimeField deserializes faster on PostgreSQL & MySQL.
Optimized .values() to do less copying, resulting in a slight speedup.
One can now pass kwargs and Q() objects as parameters to Q() objects simultaneously.

Bugfixes:

indexes will correctly map the foreign key if referenced by name.
Setting DB generated PK in constructor/create generates exception instead of silently being ignored.

Deprecations:

start_transaction is deprecated, please use @atomic() or async with in_transaction(): instead.
This release brings with it, deprecation of Python 3.6 / PyPy-3.6:

This is due to small differences with how the backported aiocontextvars behaves in comparison to the built-in in Python 3.7+.

There is a known context confusion, specifically regarding nested transactions.

0.14

0.14.2

A Field name of alias is now no longer reserved.
Restored support for inheriting from Abstract classes. Order is now also deterministic, with the inherited classes' fields being placed before the current.

0.14.1

ManyToManyField is now a function that has the type of the relation for autocomplete, this allows for better type hinting at less effort.
Added section on adding better autocomplete for relations in editors.

0.14.0

Caution!

This release drops support of Python 3.5:

Tortoise ORM now requires a minimum of CPython 3.6 or PyPy3.6-7.1

Enhancements:

Models, Fields & QuerySets have significant type annotation improvements, leading to better IDE integration and more comprehensive static analysis.
Fetching records from the DB is now up to 25% faster.
Database functions Trim(), Length(), Coalesce(), Lower(), Upper() added to tortoise.functions module.
Annotations can be selected inside Queryset.values() and Queryset.values_list() expressions.
Added support for Python 3.8
The Foreign Key property is now await-able as long as one didn't populate it via .prefetch_related()
One can now specify compound indexes in the Meta: class using indexes. It works just like unique_together.

Bugfixes:

The generated index name now has significantly lower chance of collision.
The compiled SQL query contains HAVING and GROUP BY only for aggregation functions.
Fields for FK relations are quoted properly.
Fields are quoted properly in UNIQUE statements.
Fields are quoted properly in KEY statements.
Comment Fields are quoted properly in PostgreSQL dialect.
unique_together will correctly map the foreign key if referenced by name.

Deprecations:

import from tortoise.aggregation is deprecated, please do import from tortoise.functions instead.

Breaking Changes:

The hash used to make generated indexes unique has changed. The old algorithm had a very high chance of collisions, the new hash algorithm is much better in this regard.
Dropped support for Python 3.5

0.13

0.13.12

Reverted "The Field class now calls super().__init__, so mixins are properly initialised." as it was causing issues on Python 3.6.

0.13.11

Fixed the _FieldMeta class not to checking if the 1st base class was Field, so would break with mixins.
The Field class now calls super().__init__, so mixins are properly initialised.

0.13.10

Names ForeignKey constraints in a consistent way

0.13.9

Fields can have 2nd base class which makes IDEs know python type (str, int, datetime...) of the field.
The type parameter of Field.__init__ is removed, instead we use the 2nd base class
Foreign keys and indexes are now defined correctly in MySQL so that they take effect as expected
MySQL now doesn't warn of unsafe index creation anymore

0.13.8

Fixed bug in schema creation for MySQL where non-int PK did not get declared properly (#195)

0.13.7

Fix minor bug in Model.__init__ where we raise the wrong error on setting RFK/M2M values directly.
Fields in Queryset.values_list() is now in the defined Model order.
Fields in Queryset.values() is now in the defined Model order.

0.13.5

Sample Starlette integration
Relational fields are now lazily constructed via properties instead of in the constructor, this results in a significant overhead reduction for Model instantiation with many relationships.

0.13.4

Assigning to the FK field will correctly set the associated db-field
Reading a nullalble FK field can now be None
Nullalble FK fields reverse-FK is now also nullable
Deleting a nullable FK field sets it to None

0.13.3

Fixed installing Tortoise-ORM in non-unicode systems. (#180)
«queryset».update(…) now correctly uses the DB-specific to_db_value()
fetch_related(…) now correctly encodes non-integer keys.
ForeignKey fields of type UUIDField are now escaped consistently.
Pre-generated ForeignKey fields (e.g. UUIDField) is now checked for persistence correctly.

source_field Fields are now handled correctly for ordering.
source_field Fields are now handled correctly for updating.

0.13.2

Security fixes for «model».save() & «model».delete():

This is now fully parametrized, and these operations are no longer susceptible to escaping issues.
Performance improvements:
- Simple update is now ~3-6× faster
- Partial update is now ~3× faster
- Delete is now ~2.7x faster

Fix generated Schema Primary Key for BigIntField for MySQL and PostgreSQL.
Added support for using a SmallIntField as a auto-gen Primary Key.
Ensure that default PK is added to the top of the attrs.

Model schema now has a discovery API:

One can call Tortoise.describe_models() or Tortoise.describe_model(<Model>) to get a full description of the model(s).

Please see :meth:`tortoise.Tortoise.describe_model` and :meth:`tortoise.Tortoise.describe_models` for more info.

Fix in generating comments for Foreign Keys in MySQL
Added schema support for PostgreSQL. Either set "schema": "custom" var in credentials or as a query parameter ?schema=custom
Default MySQL charset to utf8mb4. If a charset is provided it will also force the TABLE charset to the same.

0.13.0

Warning

This release brings with it, deprecation of Python 3.5:

We will increase the minimum supported version of Python to 3.6, as 3.5 is reaching end-of-life, and is missing many useful features for async applications.

We will discontinue Python 3.5 support on the next major release (Likely 0.14.0)

New Features:

Example Sanic integration along with register_tortoise hook in contrib (#163)
.values() and .values_list() now default to all fields if none are specified.
generate_schema() now generates well-formatted DDL SQL statements.
Added TruncationTestCase testing class that truncates tables to allow faster testing of transactions.

Fixed missing table/column comment generation for ForeignKeyField and ManyToManyField
Fixed comment generation to escape properly for SQLite
Fixed comment generation for PostgreSQL to not duplicate comments
Fixed generation of schema for fields that defined custom source_field values defined
Fixed working with Models that have fields with custom source_field values defined
Fixed safe creation of M2M tables for MySQL dialect (#168)

Docs/examples:

Examples have been reworked:
- Simplified init of many examples
- Re-did generate_schema.py example
- A new relations_recirsive.py example (turned into test case)
Lots of small documentation cleanups

.. rst-class:: emphasize-children

0.12

0.12.7 (retracted)

Support connecting to PostgreSQL via Unix domain socket (simple case).
Self-referential Foreign and Many-to-Many keys are now allowed

0.12.6 / 0.12.8

Handle a __models__ variable within modules to override the model discovery mechanism.

If you define the __models__ variable in yourapp.models (or wherever you specify to load your models from), generate_schema() will use that list, rather than automatically finding all models for you.

Split model constructor into from-Python and from-DB paths, leading to 15-25% speedup for large fetch operations.
More efficient queryset manipulation, 5-30% speedup for small fetches.

0.12.5

Using non registered models or wrong references causes an ConfigurationError with a helpful message.

0.12.4

Inherit fields from Mixins, together with abstract model classes.

0.12.3

Added description attribute to Field class. (#124)
Added the ability to leverage field description from (#124) to generate table column comments and ability to add table level comments

0.12.2

Fix accidental double order-by for .values() based queries. (#143)

0.12.1

Bulk insert operation:

Note

The bulk insert operation will do the minimum to ensure that the object created in the DB has all the defaults and generated fields set, this may result in incomplete references in Python.

e.g. IntField primary keys will not be populated.

This is recommend only for throw away inserts where you want to ensure optimal insert performance.
```
User.bulk_create([
    User(name="...", email="..."),
    User(name="...", email="...")
])
```

Notable efficiency improvement for regular inserts

0.12.0

Tortoise ORM now supports non-autonumber primary keys.

Note

This is a big feature change. It should not break any existing implementations.

That primary key will be accessible through a reserved field pk which will be an alias of whichever field has been nominated as a primary key. That alias field can be used as a field name when doing filtering e.g. .filter(pk=...) etc…

We currently support single (non-composite) primary keys of any indexable field type, but only these field types are recommended:
```
IntField
BigIntField
CharField
UUIDField
```
One must define a primary key by setting a pk parameter to True.

If you don't define a primary key, we will create a primary key of type IntField with name of id for you.

Any of these are valid primary key definitions in a Model:
```
id = fields.IntField(pk=True)

checksum = fields.CharField(pk=True)

guid = fields.UUIDField(pk=True)
```

Added ability to use unique_together meta Model option

0.11.5

Fixed concurrency isolation when attempting to do multiple concurrent operations on a single connection.

0.11.4

Fixed several convenience issues with foreign relations:
- FIXED: .all() actually returns the _query property as was documented.
- New models with FK don't automatically fail to resolve any data. They can now be evaluated lazily.
Some DB's don't support OFFSET without Limit, added caps to signal workaround, which is to automatically add limit of 1000000
Pylint plugin to know about default related_name for ForeignKey fields.
Simplified capabilities to be static, and defined at class level.

0.11.3

Added basic DB driver Capabilities.

Test runner now has the ability to skip tests conditionally, based on the DB driver Capabilities:
```
@requireCapability(dialect='sqlite')
async def test_run_sqlite_only(self):
    ...
```
Added per-field indexes.

When setting index=True on a field, Tortoise will now generate an index for it.

Note

Due to MySQL limitation of not supporting conditional index creation, if safe=True (the default) is set, it won't create the index and emit a warning about it.

We plan to work around this limitation in a future release.

Performance fix with PyPika for small fetch queries

0.10.0

Refactored Tortoise.init() to init all connections and discover models from config passed as argument.

Caution!

This is a breaking change.

You no longer need to import the models module for discovery, instead you need to provide an app ⇒ modules map with the init call:

async def init():
    # Here we create a SQLite DB using file "db.sqlite3"
    #  also specify the app name of "models"
    #  which contain models from "app.models"
    await Tortoise.init(
        db_url='sqlite://db.sqlite3',
        modules={'models': ['app.models']}
    )
    # Generate the schema
    await Tortoise.generate_schemas()

For more info, please have a look at :ref:`init_app`
