@rixx
Or add a middleware to strip the body from HEAD responses?

#django #gunicorn

@henryk #Django used to strip response bodies to HEAD request until this behaviour was changed in 1.10 -- the release notes do not give a reason:

> The WSGI handler no longer removes content of responses from HEAD requests or responses with a status_code of 100-199, 204, or 304. Most web servers already implement this behavior.

Reading up a bit: Ticket at https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/26052 refers to the mod_wsgi author saying the handling belongs to wsgi, not to the app: https://grahamdumpleton.me/posts/2009/10/wsgi-issues-with-http-head-requests/

In case anybody else runs the niche #django + #gunicorn combination: In your Django settings, set LOGGING["loggers"]["gunicorn.http.wsgi"] to {"handlers": ["null"], "propagate": False}

Or write a custom logging filter, I am not your boss, but I checked and these are currently the only warnings from gunicorn.http.wsgi.

https://github.com/pretalx/pretalx/commit/6fe658af5796aa9a79a502626cf99f0e1f1485e9

Gunicorn now categorises "Framework returns content on HEAD requests" as a bug, and warns about it for every request.

Django's position is "Web servers should automatically strip the content of responses to HEAD requests while leaving the headers unchanged".

So, that's fun! 🫠
(Screenshot shows ASGI commit, but it was added to WSGI too.)

#django #python #gunicorn

Alt...

Django docs screenshot, highlight reads "Web servers should automatically strip the content of responses to HEAD requests while leaving the headers unchanged"

Alt...

gunicorn commit, message: fix: warn once when ASGI app emits a body for a no-body response A framework bug — say, returning bytes from a HEAD or 204 handler — is now logged at WARNING level the first time it happens for a request so the misbehavior is visible without spamming on multi-chunk streams.

q is for Q

Django's Q objects make more complex queries easier to read and they can improve reusability and documentation of your code by giving individual queries and query parts names.

🎙️ New Talking Postgres podcast Ep42 is out!

With guest Simon Willison @simon (an #OpenSource developer, co-creator of #Django, & creator of #Datasette) on how AI is changing software development.

We covered a LOT of territory, this was so much fun, including:
-- why Simon's test for shipping AI-generated code is “Could I explain this to somebody else?”
-- how engineering management skills can be surprisingly useful when managing AI agents
-- how the bottleneck is no longer writing code but understanding it.
-- Also: personal credibility, deep research, the Winchester Mystery House, slop proxies, and Simon’s observation that “Features are cheap. That doesn’t mean you should build them all.”

Listen here (& if you enjoy it, which I think you will, be sure to tell your developer friends):

In summer, I often come across old movies on TV, and tonight I caught part of Django, the original 1966 film directed by Sergio Corbucci, one of the early spaghetti westerns.

The film was the first of a long series of imitations and remakes featuring the character of Django.

The title comes from jazz guitarist Django Reinhardt, whom Corbucci was a fan of.

The film had a huge influence on the genre, though I've other favourites…

Me after laboriously backporting #Python 3.15 fixes to #Django 6.0.x in #Gentoo: "oh, nice, the patchset applies cleanly to 5.2.x as well."

And today, I have to laboriously backport another patch to 6.0.x, and it turns out the backport doesn't apply cleanly to 5.2.x, so I have to laboriously backport it there as well.

I honestly *hate* Django Python version support policy. Shifting all the burden downstream.

Where are the good Django articles this week? We have a lot of security and random articles, but it's a very light week for articles outside of that.

Let me know if you read something good this week.

Today I'm helping my friend @carlton present his talk "Static Islands, Dynamic Sea" at PyCon Italia 2026.

We've known each other for years through Django, and we're currently co-organising Django on the Med together.

This afternoon I had the pleasure of introducing @sarahboyce keynote at @pycon 2026 🐍

Her talk, “Django has a marketing problem”, tackled some old myths about Django and reminded us that, after 20 years, it is still modern, fast, and actively developed.

As someone involved in the Django community, it was a real pleasure to welcome Sarah on stage 💚

Today I am proud to announce that Phase One of my wildlife conservation project is complete.

This project is personal. I come from a family of farmers and wildlife rangers. Conservation is not just a cause for me, it is my heritage. After losing my job, I spent months in the fields, mountains, and valleys of our beautiful land, Namibia, talking to my community, listening, and building.

The road has not been easy. The project faces a serious challenge: funding. I have exhausted my budget. On top of that, my ideas are being taken by those in power, people who know that without their approval, the project cannot move forward. That is the biggest obstacle I face.

And yet, at the end of it all, if this project never sees the light of day, I will still be proud that I tried. Proud that Django and Python were the tools I chose. Proud that the open-source community walked this road with me.

I am also still open to job opportunities though.

Thank you, Django community. Thank you, Python community, Thank you, Ubuntu community.. You gave me the tools and the encouragement. This is as much yours as it is mine.

I’m proud that my work (https://nomnom.fans/) is helping to make the #HugoAwards happen again this year. When you vote in the Hugo Awards, or download the packet, you're using software I wrote. It's open source -- a rarity in convention software, but in my opinion, so critical to the trust we must have in the process -- and made with #Python and #Django and many other software libraries that are also freely given to the developer community.

📰 Issue 335: Redesigning DjangoProject.com

@davidism 👇
> Avoid using null on string-based fields such as CharField and TextField. The #Django convention is to use an empty string, not NULL, as the “no data” state for string-based fields. If a string-based field has null=False, empty strings can still be saved for “no data”. If a string-based field has null=True, that means it has two possible values for “no data”: NULL, and the empty string. In most cases, it’s redundant to have two possible values for “no data”.

We missed a @djangonews shout-out to @raffaellasuardini and @djangonaut for helping with our weekly Django Updates.

@sarahboyce suggested and volunteered to start this section and helped kick it off.

Since then, Raffaella and a dozen+ Djangonaut Spacers have been contributing weekly to keep it going.

Web app db design: if you have optional string fields, do you make the column nullable, or not nullable with a default empty string. Consider HTML form data (empty field is sent as empty string, not omitted), and rendering (rendering empty for None has to be remembered everywhere). I've never seen any consensus. Comment if you want to explain why you choose one over the other! #python #flask #django

I just published a recap of my DjangoCon Europe 2026 🇬🇷

It’s a timeline of all the posts I shared live during the conference, with photos and small moments along the way.

A simple way to relive the experience from start to sprints 🙂

Finally got time to block out my proposal to move Django to an Annual Release Cycle as a DEP.

RE: https://chaos.social/@carlton/116452271603429689

I’m happy to see this Django feature finished:

We replaced the blank choice label of a select form control with words, rather than only dashes.

Why?

This idea came up in a discussion about screen readers:

Not every screen reader pronounces dashes, meaning that some configurations could not read the original blank choice text.

Plus, it’s always great to have more options to customize your forms!

I ran out of spoons after coding the proof of concept, but the great thing about OSS is that there is a team that can pick up where you left off. 🚀

Last sprint morning for me at DjangoCon Europe 2026 in Athens 🇬🇷

Tried to wrap up a few things I had started, helped where I could, and spent time talking and saying goodbye to many people.

Also gave a hand bringing lunch for everyone, small things but part of the whole experience 🙂

Big thanks to the organizers 🙏

With Paris Kasidiaris, @anze3db, @jrief
