Hi, The Debian maintainer of Django would like to upload Django 1.7 before Jessie is frozen on the 5th of November. As for OpenStack, I would like Icehouse to be in Jessie, since it will be supported by major companies (RedHat and Canonical both will use Icehouse as LTS, and will work on security for a longer time than previously planned in the OpenStack community).
Though Horizon Icehouse doesn't currently work with Django 1.7. The first thing to fix would be the TEMPLATE_DIRS thing: ./run_tests.sh -N -P || true Running Horizon application tests Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/zigo/sources/openstack/icehouse/horizon/build-area/horizon-2014.1.1/manage.py", line 25, in <module> execute_from_command_line(sys.argv) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/django/core/management/__init__.py", line 385, in execute_from_command_line utility.execute() [... not useful stack dump ...] File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/django/conf/__init__.py", line 42, in _setup self._wrapped = Settings(settings_module) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/django/conf/__init__.py", line 110, in __init__ "Please fix your settings." % setting) django.core.exceptions.ImproperlyConfigured: The TEMPLATE_DIRS setting must be a tuple. Please fix your settings. Running openstack_dashboard tests WARNING:root:No local_settings file found. Then of course, the rest of the tests are completely broken because there's no local_settings. Adding a comma at the end of: TEMPLATE_DIRS = (os.path.join(ROOT_PATH, 'tests', 'templates')) in horizon/test/settings.py fixes the issue. Note that this works in both Django 1.6 and 1.7. Some other TEMPLATE_DIRS declaration already have the comma, so I guess it's fine to add it. Which is why I did this: https://review.openstack.org/111561 FYI, there's this document that talks about it: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.7/releases/1.7/#backwards-incompatible-changes-in-1-7 Then, after fixing this, I get this error: ====================================================================== ERROR: Failure: TypeError (Error when calling the metaclass bases function() argument 1 must be code, not str) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/nose/loader.py", line 414, in loadTestsFromName addr.filename, addr.module) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/nose/importer.py", line 47, in importFromPath return self.importFromDir(dir_path, fqname) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/nose/importer.py", line 94, in importFromDir mod = load_module(part_fqname, fh, filename, desc) File "/home/zigo/sources/openstack/icehouse/horizon/build-area/horizon-2014.1.1/horizon/test/tests/tables.py", line 28, in <module> from horizon.test import helpers as test File "/home/zigo/sources/openstack/icehouse/horizon/build-area/horizon-2014.1.1/horizon/test/helpers.py", line 184, in <module> class JasmineTests(SeleniumTestCase): TypeError: Error when calling the metaclass bases function() argument 1 must be code, not str There's the same issue in the definition of SeleniumTestCase() in openstack_dashboard/test/helpers.py (line 365 in Icehouse). Since I don't really care about selenium (it can't be tested in Debian because it's non-free), I commented out the class JasmineTests(SeleniumTestCase), then I get more errors. A few instances of this one: File "/home/zigo/sources/openstack/icehouse/horizon/build-area/horizon-2014.1.1/horizon/tables/base.py", line 206, in <lambda> "average": lambda data: sum(data, 0.0) / len(data) TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for +: 'float' and 'str' I'm not a Django expert, so I it'd be awesome to get help on this. Best would be that: 1/ Support for Django 1.7 is added to Juno 2/ The changes are backported to Icehouse (even if this doesn't make it into the stable branch because of "let's stay safe", I can add the patches as Debian specific). Thoughts from the Horizon team would be welcome.
