1 | # Known Bugs: |

2 | |
3 | - Bug ->go or ->visit causes actions which have Args or CaptureArgs called |
4 | twice when called via ->go or ->visit. |

8 | # Compatibility warnings to add: |
9 | |
10 | - $self->config should warn as config should only ever be called as a |
5d94e8f9 |
11 | class method (TESTS). |

15 | ## Log setup needs to be less lame |
16 | |
17 | So Catalyst::Plugin::Log::* can die |
18 | in a fire. Having $c->log_class would be a good start. kane volunteered |
19 | to do some of this. |
20 | |
21 | Simple example: Catalyst::Plugin::Log::Colorful should just be a |
22 | subclass of Catalyst::Log, no ::Plugin:: needed. |
23 | |
24 | See also: Catalyst::Plugin::Log::Dispatch and |

31 | ### Blockers |
32 | |
f05b654b |
33 | * Fix nginx middlewares so that they are generic, or can somehow |
eddb80f7 |
34 | be used by people with their own .psgi files |
8110f44e |
35 | * Fix a sane / nicer way to do custom engines. |

37 | * I've noticed a small difference with Catalyst::Test. The latest stable |
38 | version include two headers, 'host' and 'https'. They are missing from |
39 | this version. |
40 | |
5dcb0779 |
41 | * Installation issues with some common modules (from Task::Catalyst) |
42 | - Catalyst::ActionRole::ACL (test failures, fix in repo: |
43 | https://github.com/bobtfish/catalyst-actionrole-acl/pull/1) |
44 | - Catalyst::Plugin::Session::Store::DBIC ( test failure because of |
45 | change to the way Test::Catalyst works, fix in repo at: |
46 | http://dev.catalystframework.org/svnweb/Catalyst/revision?rev=14058) |
47 | - Catalyst::Engine::HTTP::Prefork ?? maybe remove from Task::Catalyst? |
48 | - CatalystX-SimpleLogin : will work once we fix Catalyst::ActionRole::ACL. |

50 | #### Script survey |

52 | ### Nice to have |
53 | |
498252b4 |
54 | * Test/WWW/Mechanize/Catalyst.pm stable throws a deprecation alert when |
55 | using Catalyst::Test changes introduced by Cataplack. Suggested fix is |
56 | in the repo: http://dev.catalystframework.org/svnweb/Catalyst/revision?rev=14059 |
57 | |
8110f44e |
58 | * Capture arguments that the plack engine component was run with somewhere, |
498252b4 |
59 | to more easily support custom args from scripts (e.g. Gitalist's |
8110f44e |
60 | --git_dir) |
29aba7b9 |
61 | * throw away the restarter and allow using the restarters Plack provides |
62 | * remove per-request state from the engine instance |
63 | * be smarter about how we use PSGI - not every response needs to be delayed |
64 | and streaming |
65 | |

66 | ## The horrible hack for plugin setup - replacing it: |
67 | |
68 | * Have a look at the Devel::REPL BEFORE_PLUGIN stuff |
69 | I wonder if what we need is that combined with plugins-as-roles |
70 | |
71 | ## App / ctx split: |
72 | |
73 | NOTE - these are notes that t0m thought up after doing back compat for |
5d94e8f9 |
74 | catalyst_component_class, may be inaccurate, wrong or missing things |
77d892df |
75 | bug mst (at least) to correct before trying more than the first 2 |
76 | steps. Please knock yourself out on the first two however :) |
77 | |
78 | - Eliminate actions in MyApp from the main test suite |
79 | - Uncomment warning in C::C::register_action_methods, add tests it works |
80 | by mocking out the logging.. |
81 | - Remove MyApp @ISA controller (ask metaclass if it has attributes, and if |
82 | so you need back compat :/) |
83 | - Make Catalyst::Context, move the per request stuff in there, handles from |
84 | main app class to delegate |
85 | - Make an instance of the app class which is a global variable |
86 | - Make new instance of the context class, not the app class per-request |
87 | - Remove the components as class data, move to instance data on the app |
88 | class (you probably have to do this for _all_ the class data, good luck!) |
89 | - Make it possible for users to spin up different instances of the app class |
90 | (with different config etc each) |
91 | - Profit! (Things like changing the complete app config per vhost, i.e. |
92 | writing a config loader / app class role which dispatches per vhost to |
93 | differently configured apps is piss easy) |
