3.4 (2019-12-08)

• Dropped support for Python 3.4.

• Dropped support for Django 2.1. ⚠️

• Added support for Python 3.8.

• Added support for Django 3.0.

• Snippets which are expired are now deleted as soon as they are requested by a client. It’s not necessary to purge them minutely with the cleanup_snipppet managemenent command. It’s still encouraged to have the management command setup, just run it daily, so snippets which expired but never got fetched by a client are deleted properly.

• All pages have sane Expire or Max-Age header.

• Onetime snippets which were never viewed a second time are now deleted if they reach the default expire date.

• New AppConfig setting APPLICATION_NAME that can be used to replace the term “dpaste” throughout the UI.

• New AppConfig setting EXTRA_HEAD_HTML and similars that can be used to add custom HTML to each template, to easily override the stock UI of dpaste.

• New “Slim” view that displays the highlighted snippet without header, options etc, and can be iframed.

• Forced line-break for superlongwordsthatwouldexceedthecanvas.

• Local development is no longer centered around pipenv, instead it’s using docker-compose or the classic virtualenv based setups.

• Error pages are now correctly translated.

• Testsuite and Tox uses pytest instead of a homebrewed testrunner.

3.3.1 (2019-08-04):

• Exclude the local settings file from the pypi release.

3.3 (2019-07-12)

• The compiled static files (CSS, JS) are now shipped with the Pypi package since its not possible to compile them after installation with pip.

3.2 (2019-06-24)

• “Edit Snippet” panel is now hidden by default to remove visual noise.

• Linux/Unix browsers now use Ctrl+Enter as a shortcut to submit the form.

• Added a dedicated “Copy Snippet” button to copy the content to the clipboard.

• Added “View Raw” option to optionally render the ‘raw’ snippet content with a template rather served as plain text. This was added to hinder abuse.

3.0 (2018-06-22)

Huge release. Full cleanup and update of the entire codebase. Details:

• Requires Python 3.4 and up.

• Dropped support for Django 1.8 to 1.10 due to it’s general end of support. The project will likely work well but it’s no longer specifically tested.

• All views are now class based and use the latest generic based views sugar.

• Django 1.11 based templates, forms, views, models, etc.

• Added pipenv support for local development.

• Added AppConfig support to set and maintain settings.

• Added “Rendered Text” lexer with support for rST and Markdown.

• Added Content Security Policy features, with django-csp (this is mainly required for the “rendered” text feature).

• Removed jQuery dependency, all Javascript is native.

• Removed Bootstrap dependency.

• Removed ‘Maximum History’ limit setting.

• Removed translations.

• Removed “Suspicious” middleware which was never been used, documented, and also not functional for a while.

• Fixed issues around leading whitespace in lines.

• Fixed CMD+Enter form submission shortcut in Firefox.

2.14 (no public release)

• Django 1.11 compatibility. But not Django 2.0 yet.

• Removed “Suspicious” middleware which was never been used, documented, and also not functional for a while.

2.13 (2017-01-20)

• (Backwards incompatible) Removal of django-mptt and therefor the removal of a tree based snippet list, due to performance reasons with large snippet counts. Snippets still have a ‘parent’ relation if it’s an answer of another snippet, however this is no longer a Nested Set. The UI is simplified too and the user can now only compare an answer to it’s parent snippet. I believe this is the major use case anyway.

• (Backwards incompatible) Removal of the “Gist” button feature.

• Fixed broken 404 view handler in Django 1.9+.

• Python 3.6 and Django 1.10 compatibility and tests.

2.12 (2016-09-06)

• Full Django 1.8 support

• Full Django 1.9 support

• C++ Lexer is enabled by default

• (Backwards incompatible) All API calls must pass the data within a POST request. It can’t mix POST and GET arguments anymore. This was weird behavior anyway and is likely no issue for any paste plugin out there.

2.9 (2015-08-12)

• Full Django 1.7 support

• Full Django 1.8 support

• New Django migrations, with fallback to South migrations if South is installed. If you want to switch from South to native Django migrations, and have an existing databsae, fake the initial migrations: manage.py migrate –fake-initial

• Added full i18n support and several languages

• More settings can be overrridden, like the jQuery URL, site name and wether you want to enable Gthub Gist.

2.8 (2014-08-02)

• The API create view has a new argument ‘filename’ which is used to determine the lexer out of a given filename.

• Fixed a XSS bug where HTML tags were not properly escaped with the simple code lexer.
