#32971: Internal Field.check() methods don't need to construct and return lists -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: Chris | Owner: nobody Jerdonek | Type: | Status: new Cleanup/optimization | Component: Database | Version: dev layer (models, ORM) | Severity: Normal | Keywords: Triage Stage: | Has patch: 0 Unreviewed | Needs documentation: 0 | Needs tests: 0 Patch needs improvement: 0 | Easy pickings: 0 UI/UX: 0 | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- I noticed that many of the internal "check()" methods used by `Field` subclasses return lists (including the empty list) when they can just yield items (or yield nothing). This is because the concrete `check()` implementations unpack the return value when constructing a new list. See here for one example of such a `check()` method: https://github.com/django/django/blob/f331eba6d576752dd79c4b37c41d981daa537fe6/django/db/models/fields/__init__.py#L196-L205
The proposed change, then, would be to change methods like the following to yield their items instead of creating and returning a list: https://github.com/django/django/blob/f331eba6d576752dd79c4b37c41d981daa537fe6/django/db/models/fields/__init__.py#L243-L254 -- Ticket URL: <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/32971> Django <https://code.djangoproject.com/> The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
