Breaking Changes¶

Removal of Convenience Imports (v0.2.0)¶

Summary¶

All convenience imports have been removed from the main package __init__.py to prevent eager loading and resolve async context detection issues. This is a breaking change that requires updating all import statements in your code.

Why This Change Was Made¶

Convenience imports in __init__.py caused modules to be eagerly loaded during Django startup, which led to: - Field extensions being built in sync context during import time - Schema evaluation happening too early (before async context was available) - Crashes when mixing sync/async execution chains during testing

By removing these imports, modules are only loaded when explicitly imported, ensuring proper async context detection.

What You Need to Do¶

Update all imports to use direct module paths instead of importing from the main package.

Migration Examples¶

Field Extensions¶

# ❌ OLD (no longer works)
from strawberry_django_extras import (
    mutation_hooks,
    with_validation,
    with_permissions,
    with_cud_relationships,
    with_total_count
)

# ✅ NEW (required)
from strawberry_django_extras.field_extensions import (
    mutation_hooks,
    with_validation,
    with_permissions, 
    with_cud_relationships,
    with_total_count
)

JWT Authentication¶

# ❌ OLD (no longer works)
from strawberry_django_extras import JWTMutations

# ✅ NEW (required)
from strawberry_django_extras.jwt.mutations import JWTMutations

Input Types¶

# ❌ OLD (no longer works)
from strawberry_django_extras import (
    CRUDInput,
    CRUDOneToOneCreateInput,
    CRUDManyToManyUpdateInput
)

# ✅ NEW (required)
from strawberry_django_extras.inputs import (
    CRUDInput,
    CRUDOneToOneCreateInput,
    CRUDManyToManyUpdateInput
)

Decorators¶

# ❌ OLD (no longer works)
from strawberry_django_extras import sync_or_async

# ✅ NEW (required)
from strawberry_django_extras.decorators import sync_or_async

Module Structure¶

The new import structure follows this pattern:

strawberry_django_extras/
├── decorators.py          # sync_or_async
├── field_extensions.py    # All field extensions and factory functions
├── inputs.py             # CRUD input types
├── lazy.py               # Context-aware lazy view/consumer classes
└── jwt/
    └── mutations.py      # JWTMutations
