1.0.0

  • Bring back project to life.

  • Change in project structure
    • signals
      • delete_hit_count from hitcount.models has been moved to hitcount.signals.
        • The argument save_hitcount to the function delete_hit_count_handler (this process the signal delete_hit_count) is now keyword-only. The earlier design pattern was a case of boolean-trap.

    • mixins
      • HitCountMixin from hitcount.models has been renamed as HitCountModelMixin and moved to hitcount.mixins.

      • HitCountMixin from hitcount.views has been renamed as HitCountViewMixin and moved to hitcount.mixins.

    • models
      • BlackListIP renamed to BlockedIP.

      • BlackListUserAgent renamed to BlockedUserAgent.

      • The ip field for Hit model has been made optional. This hopefully makes the project GDPR compliant. Please open an issue if still isn’t.
        • To maintain backwards compatibility with django-hitcount, an additional setting HITCOUNT_USE_IP has been added.

    • views
      • hitcount.views.update_hit_count_ajax that was to be removed in django-hitcount 1.2 has been removed. Use hitcount.views.HitCountJSONView instead.

      • hitcount.views._update_hit_count that was to be removed in django-hitcount 1.2 has been removed. Use hitcount.mixins.HitCountViewMixin.hit_count instead.

    • removed additional dependency of django-etc.

    • added additional unit tests. Test coverage is now 100%.
