1 | # Known Bugs: |

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

6 | Test app: http://github.com/bobtfish/catalyst-app-bug-go_chain/tree/master |

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 |

29 | ## The horrible hack for plugin setup - replacing it: |
30 | |
31 | * Have a look at the Devel::REPL BEFORE_PLUGIN stuff |
32 | I wonder if what we need is that combined with plugins-as-roles |
33 | |
34 | ## App / ctx split: |
35 | |
36 | NOTE - these are notes that t0m thought up after doing back compat for |
5d94e8f9 |
37 | catalyst_component_class, may be inaccurate, wrong or missing things |
77d892df |
38 | bug mst (at least) to correct before trying more than the first 2 |
39 | steps. Please knock yourself out on the first two however :) |
40 | |
41 | - Eliminate actions in MyApp from the main test suite |
42 | - Uncomment warning in C::C::register_action_methods, add tests it works |
43 | by mocking out the logging.. |
44 | - Remove MyApp @ISA controller (ask metaclass if it has attributes, and if |
45 | so you need back compat :/) |
46 | - Make Catalyst::Context, move the per request stuff in there, handles from |
47 | main app class to delegate |
48 | - Make an instance of the app class which is a global variable |
49 | - Make new instance of the context class, not the app class per-request |
50 | - Remove the components as class data, move to instance data on the app |
51 | class (you probably have to do this for _all_ the class data, good luck!) |
52 | - Make it possible for users to spin up different instances of the app class |
53 | (with different config etc each) |
54 | - Profit! (Things like changing the complete app config per vhost, i.e. |
55 | writing a config loader / app class role which dispatches per vhost to |
56 | differently configured apps is piss easy) |

60 | ### Next large steps: |
61 | |
62 | - Moving setup_components etc into the container |
63 | |
64 | - This is so that you can just load the container and get models etc from it, |
65 | without loading Catalyst. |
66 | |

67 | - Finish moving setup_component |
68 | - $component->COMPONENT() is still called by setup_component |
69 | (should there be a Service::WithCOMPONENT to solve this?) |
70 | - make it a method, not function |
71 | |
72 | - Break $instance->expand_modules() in setup_components and figure |
73 | out later how to bring it back |
74 | |
75 | - Move expand_component_module |
76 | |
77 | - Move locate_components |
78 | |
79 | - Move contents of setup_components |
80 | |
731a4757 |
81 | - Finished documentation for ::IOC parts. |
82 | |
334eb9fb |
83 | - Creating service()-like sugar for component |
84 | |
731a4757 |
85 | - Test cases for extending the container in an application. |
334eb9fb |
86 | - Using the sugar added in the previous item |
87 | - Test when Model::Foo depends_on Model::Bar |

88 | |
19c64905 |
89 | - Allowing people to change component lifecycles |
90 | |
91 | - This is done by being able to use an alternate Service class.. |
92 | |
93 | I.E. We currently force everything to do Catalyst/IOC/Service/WithAcceptContext.pm, but |
94 | things without an ACCEPT_CONTEXT could just not bother, and it would be nice to have |
95 | one that cached the object in request scope (i.e. Catalyst::Component::InstancePerContext) |
96 | etc. |
97 | |
98 | However we need to work out an interface for people to setup / configure this. |
99 | |
100 | ### To polish off |
101 | |
102 | - Document current methods |
103 | - + $class->container->get_sub_container('model')->make_single_default; |
104 | + $class->container->get_sub_container('view')->make_single_default; |
