Django-appconf

----------------

.. note::

This app precedes Django's own AppConfig_ classes that act as
"objects [to] store metadata for an application" inside Django's
app loading mechanism. In other words, they solve a related but
different use case than django-appconf and can't easily be used
as a replacement. The similarity in name is purely coincidental.

* Dropped support of Python 2.5.

* Added support for Django 1.7 and 1.8.

* Modernized test setup.

.. _AppConfig: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/stable/ref/applications/#django.apps.AppConfig

----------------

* Added ``required`` attribute to ``Meta`` to be able to specify which
settings are required to be set.

* Moved to Travis for the tests: http://travis-ci.org/jezdez/django-appconf

* Stopped support for Django 1.2.X.

* Introduced support for Python >= 3.2.

----------------

* Install as a package instead of a module.

* Refactored tests to use `django-jenkins`_ for `enn.io`_'s `CI server`_.

.. _`enn.io`: http://enn.io
.. _`CI server`: https://ci.enn.io/job/django-appconf/

------------------

* Fixed minor issue in installation documentation.

----------------

* Renamed ``app_label`` attribute of the inner ``Meta`` class to ``prefix``.
The old form ``app_label`` will work in the meantime.

* Added ``holder`` attribute to the inner ``Meta`` class to be able to
specify a custom "global" setting holder. Default: "'django.conf.settings'"

* Added ``proxy`` attribute to the inner ``Meta`` class to enable proxying
of ``AppConf`` instances to the settings holder, e.g. the global Django
settings.

* Fixed issues with ``configured_data`` dictionary available in the
``configure`` method of ``AppConf`` classes with regard to subclassing.

----------------

* Added tests with 100% coverage.

* Added ability to subclass ``Meta`` classes.

* Fixed various bugs with subclassing and configuration in subclasses.
