Roadmap¶

Short-term¶

Our short term goal is to ship the current implementation as MVP, just somewhat matured.

For v1.0 that involves:

• Timezone support

Mid-term¶

Here we have all the features that is slightly further out, in no particular order:

• Performance work:

  • Sub queries

  • Change to all-parametrized queries

  • Faster MySQL driver (possibly based on mysqlclient)

  • Consider using Cython to accelerate critical loops

• Convenience/Ease-Of-Use work:

  • Make DELETE honour limit and offset

  • .filter(field=None) to work as expected

• Expand in the init framework:

  • Ability to have Management Commands

  • Ability to define Management Commands

  • Make it simple to inspect Models and Management Commands without using private APIs.

• Migrations

  • Comprehensive schema Migrations

  • Automatic forward Migration building

  • Ability to easily run arbitrary code in a migration

  • Ability to get a the Models for that exact time of the migration, to ensure safe & consistent data migrations

  • Cross-DB support

  • Fixtures as a property of a migration

• Serialization support

  • Add deserialization support

  • Make default serializers support some validation

  • Provide clean way to replace serializers with custom solution

• Extra DB support

  • CockroachDB

  • Firebird

• Enhanced test support

  • hypothesis strategy builder

• Fields

  • Expand on standard provided fields

• Documentation

  • Tutorials

Long-term¶

Become the de facto Python AsyncIO ORM.
