1 # This file documents the revision history for Perl extension Catalyst.
4 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.17. This in turn requires new
5 MooseX::Types to stop warnings in Moose 0.91, and correctly supports
6 role combination of roles containing attributed methods.
7 - Catalyst::Dispatcher::dispatch_types no longer throws deprecated warnings
8 as there is no recommended alternative.
9 - Improved the suggested fix warning when component resolution uses regex
10 fallback for fully qualified component names.
11 - Catalyst::Test::local_request sets ->request on the response.
12 - Require HTTP::Request 5.814 and HTTP::Response 5.813 from LWP 5.814
16 - Added disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config option to
17 switch off (deprecated) regex fallback for component resolution.
18 - Added an nginx-specific behavior to the FastCGI engine to allow
19 proper PATH_INFO and SCRIPT_NAME processing for non-root applications
20 - Enable Catalyst::Utils::home() to find home within Dist::Zilla built
23 5.80013 2009-09-17 11:07:04
26 - Preserve immutable_options when temporarily making a class mutable in
27 Catalyst::ClassData as this is needed by new Class::MOP.
28 This could have potentially caused issues when using the deprecated runtime
29 plugins feature in an application with plugins which define their own new
31 - Require new Moose version and new versions of various dependencies
32 to avoid warnings from newest Moose release.
33 - Fix go / visit expecting captures and arguments in reverse order.
36 - Rework the $c->go documentation to make it more clear.
37 - Additional documentation in Catalyst::Upgrading covering more deprecation
40 Refactoring / cleanups:
41 - Action methods in the application class are deprecated and applications
42 using them will now generate a warning at startup.
43 - The -short option has been removed from catalyst.pl, stopping new
44 applications from being generated using the ::[MVC]:: naming scheme as
45 this is deprecated and generates warnings. RT#49771
47 5.80012 2009-09-09 19:09:09
50 - Fix t/optional_http-server.t test.
51 - Fix t/optional_http-server-restart.t test.
52 - Fix duplicate components being loaded at setup time, each component is
53 now loaded at most once + tests.
54 - Fix backward compatibility - hash key configured actions are stored in
55 is returned to 'actions'.
56 - Fix get_action_methods returning duplicate methods when a method is both
57 decorated with method attributes and set as an action in config.
59 Refactoring / cleanups:
60 - Reduce minimum supported perl version from 5.8.6 to 5.8.4 as there are
61 many people still running/testing this version with no known issues.
64 - Make the optional_http_server.t test an author only test which must be
65 run by authors to stop it being broken again.
66 - Fix recursion warnings in the test suites.
68 5.80011 2009-08-23 13:48:15
71 - Remove leftovers of the restarter engine. The removed code caused test
72 failures, which weren't apparent for anyone still having an old version
75 5.80010 2009-08-21 23:32:15
78 - Fix and add tests for a regression introduced by 5.80008.
79 Catalyst::Engine is now able to send out data from filehandles larger
80 than the default chunksize of 64k again.
82 5.80009 2009-08-21 22:21:08
85 - Fix and add tests for generating inner packages inside the COMPONENT
86 method, and those packages being correctly registered as components.
87 This fixes Catalyst::Model::DBIC among others.
89 5.80008 2009-08-21 17:47:30
92 - Fix replace_constructor warning to actually work if you make your
93 application class immutable without that option.
94 - Depend on Module::Pluggable 3.9 to prevent a bug wherein components
95 in inner packages might not be registered. This especially affected
97 - Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI - relax the check for versions of Microsoft
98 IIS. Provides compatibility with Windows 2008 R2 as well as
99 (hopefully) future versions.
100 - In tests which depend on the values of environment variables,
101 localise the environment, then delete only relevant environment
103 - Fix issue with Engine::HTTP not sending headers properly in some cases
105 - Make Catalyst::Engine write at least once when finalizing the response
106 body from a filehandle, even if the write is empty. This avoids fail
107 when trying to send out an empty response body from a filehandle.
108 - Catalyst::Engine::HTTP - Accept a fully qualified absolute URI in the
109 Request-URI of the Request-Line
111 Refactoring / cleanups:
112 - Deleted the Restarter engine and its Watcher code. Use the
113 new Catalyst::Restarter in a recent Catalyst::Devel instead.
114 - New unit test for Catalyst::Action 'unit_core_action.t'
115 - Bump minimum supported perl version from 5.8.1 to 5.8.6 as there are
116 known issues with 5.8.3.
117 - Debug output uses dynamic column sizing to create more readable output
118 when using a larger $ENV{COLUMNS} setting. (groditi)
121 - Added private_path method for Catalyst::Action
122 - Allow uri_for($controller_instance) which will produce a URI
123 for the controller namespace
124 - Break setup_components into two more parts: locate_components and
125 expand_component_module (rjbs)
126 - Allow Components to return anon classed from their COMPONENT method
127 correctly, and have action registration work on Controllers returned
128 as such by adding a catalyst_component_name accessor for all components
129 which returns the component instance's name to be used when building
131 - Adding X-Forwarded-Port to allow the frontend proxy to dictate the
132 frontend port (jshirley)
133 - Added Catalyst::Stats->created accessor for the time at the start of
137 - Fix POD to refer to ->config(key => $val), rather than
138 ->config->{key} = $val, as the latter form is deprecated.
139 - Clearer docs for the 'uri_for' method.
140 - Fix POD refering to CGI::Cookie. We're using CGI::Simple::Cookie.
143 5.80007 2009-06-30 23:54:34
146 - Don't mangle query parameters passed to uri_for
147 - Tests for this (Byron Young + Amir Sadoughi)
148 - Inherited controller methods can now be specified in
150 - Assigning an undef response body no longer produces warnings
151 - Fix C3 incompatibility bug caused if you use Moose in MyApp.pm and
152 add Catalyst to the right hand side of this in @ISA.
153 - Make Catalyst.pm implement the Component::ApplicationAttribute
154 interface so defining actions in MyApp.pm works again, if the
155 actions have attributes that cause $self->_application to be used
159 - Add optional second argument to uri_with which appends to existing
160 params rather than replacing them. (foo=1 becomes foo=1&foo=2 when
161 uri_with({ foo => 2 }, { mode => 'append' }) is called on a foo=1
164 5.80006 2009-06-29 23:37:47
167 - Revert change to URL encode things passed into $c->uri_for
168 Args and CaptureArgs as this causes breakage to pre-existing
170 - Remove use of Test::MockObject as it doesn't install from CPAN
171 in some environments.
172 - Remove use of dclone to deep copy configs and replace with
173 Catalyst::Utils::merge_hashes which has the same effect, of
174 ensuring child classes don't inherit their parent's config,
175 except works correctly with closures.
176 - Add Class::C3::reinitialize into Catalyst::Test to avoid weird
177 bugs in ctx_request (bokutin in RT#46459)
178 - Fix issues with _parse_PathPrefix_attr method in Catalyst::Controller
180 - Fix bugs with action sorting:
181 - Path actions sorted so that the most specific wins.
182 - Action methods named default and index fixed.
185 - Use ~ as prefix for plugins or action classes which are located in
186 MyApp::Plugin / MyApp::Action (mo)
187 - Controller methods without attributes are now considered actions if
188 they are specified in config->{action(s)} (mo)
189 - Add Catalyst::Component::ContextClosure as an easy way to create code
190 references, that close over the context, without creating leaks.
192 Refactoring / cleanups:
193 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Exception*.
194 - Turn Catalyst::Exception into an actual class and make the throw
195 method create instances of it. They can still be used as normal
196 strings, as before, as they are overloaded to stringify to their
198 - Add a rethrow method to Catalyst::Exception.
199 - Add Catalyst::Exception::Detach and ::Go, and refactor detach() and
200 go() to use them instead of magic, global strings.
202 - Clean up getting metaclass instance and making app class immutable
203 again in Catalyst::Test
205 5.80005 2009-06-06 14:40:00
208 - Arguments ($c->req->args) in Chained dispatch are now automatically
209 URL decoded to be consistent with Local/Path dispatch
212 - Clarify correct techniques for Moose controllers (domm)
215 - Further change pushing 'env' attribute down into Catalyst::Engine
216 to make $c->engine->env work in all cases (kmx)
217 - Also fix $c->engine->env in Catalyst::Test tests (kmx)
219 - Fix Catalyst failing to start if any plugin changed $_ whilst
222 - Be stricter about arguments to Args attributes for Chained actions,
223 so that they blow up on load instead of causing undefined behavior
226 - Prefer Path actions with a smaller (or set) number of Args (caelum)
227 Bug reported here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/931653/catalyst-action-that-matches-a-single-file-in-the-root-directory/933181#933181
231 - Add $c->req->remote_user to disambiguate from $c->req->user (dwc)
232 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.12 so that action methods
233 (with attributes) can be used in / composed from Moose roles.
234 - Allow the generation of cookies with the HTTPOnly flag set
235 in Catalyst::Engine (kmx)
237 5.80004 2009-05-18 17:03:23
238 - Rename the actions attribute in Catalyt::Controller to
239 _controller_actions to avoid name clashes with application
240 controller naming. (random)

242 Fixed by 349cda in Moose 0.78
243 - Fix deprecation message for Catalyst::Dispatcher to refer
244 to the class actually calling the deprecated method. RT#45741
245 - Clarify limitations of $request->base and $request->secure.

249 - Fix so that / (and other special characters) are URL encoded when
250 passed into $c->uri_for as Args/CaptureArgs
251 - Fix development server so that $c->engine->env returns the correct
253 - Require Moose 0.78 to fix metaclass incompatibility issues
254 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.10 and use
255 Moose::Meta::Class->initialize rather than Moose->init_meta to fix
256 bugs related to having a 'meta' method in your controller
257 - Fix cases where your application failing to compile could cause perl
258 to report 'Unknown Error'
259 - Support adding Moose::Roles to the plugin list. These are applied to
260 MyApp after plugins have been pushed onto @ISA
261 - Fix calling $c->req->parameters as the first thing you do when
262 parse_on_demand is on

271 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange
272 - Fix the unattached chain debug table for endpoints with no

275 AGGREGATE_TESTS environment variable is set and a recent
276 Test::Aggregate is available.
277 - Bump to MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.09, to gain the
278 get_nearest_methods_with_attributes method allowing methods without
279 attributes in a subclass to override those with attributes in a

289 + tests from RT#39369 (norbi)
290 - Partial rewrite and reoganisation of the C3 docs in
291 Catalyst::Upgrading based on feedback from kiffin
292 - If you make your application class immutable and turn off
293 constructor inlining, Catalyst will die and tell you pass
294 the (replace_constructor => 1) argument to
295 make_immutable. (Dave Rolsky)
297 5.80002 2009-04-22 01:28:36
298 - Fix CATALYST_DEBUG and MYAPP_DEBUG environment variables
299 turning debuging on if defined, rather than if set.

301 configuration in your application.
303 - pass replace_constructor to the immutable call to ensure
304 applications get a Moose constructor rather than a C::A one
305 - Fix issues with restarting the application class due to C3 failures
307 - Work around issues in Moose with initialization order of multiple
308 levels of non-Moose classes inheriting from a Moose class

314 - Fix so that width of table of unattached actions for debugging
315 ::DispatchType::Chained varies according to your terminal width
317 - Fix warning message about linearized @ISA in Catalyst::Component

327 - Clean up recursion errors
328 - Extra cross links in dispatch types POD (Ian Wells)
329 - Test uri_with clears query params when they are set to undef
331 - Complain about old Catalyst::Devel versions which generated
332 ->setup(qw/-Debug... etc. as this is not recommended
334 5.8000_07 2009-04-12 13:37
335 - Add the Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_type method (ash)
336 - Throw an exception rather than loading an app if an action
337 tries to chain to itself
339 - Change the $c->visit and $c->go methods to optionally take
340 CaptureArgs, making them useful to call ActionChains with
341 - Tests for this (radek)
342 - Fix _invoke_as_component method to find the proper action instance
343 for dispatchable actions so that ->visit or ->going to ActionChains
344 with qw/Class::Name method_name/ works correctly
345 - Tests for this (radek)
346 - Added Catalyst::Test::ctx_request to be able to inspect
347 the context object after a request is made (Jos Boumans)
348 - debug() POD rewrite (jhannah)

352 test application so that the main TestApp isn't polluted with
354 - Add a warning for the old ::[MVC]:: style naming scheme
356 - Kill Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT warnings for the Catalyst:: namespace
357 in production versions
358 - Tidy up Catalyst::ClassData to ensure that all components get
359 the correct metaclass
360 - Make MyApp.pm restartable by unsetting setup_finished in
361 the restarter process
362 - Non-naive implementation of making mutable on restart using
363 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange if installed
365 - Naive implementation of making all components mutable in the
366 forked restart watcher process so native Moose apps using
367 immutable restart correctly.
369 - Bump Moose dependency to 0.70 so that we avoid nasty surprises
370 with is_class_loaded and perl 5.80 when you Moosify MyApp.pm
371 - Clarify that request arguments aren't unescaped automatically
372 (Simon Bertrang) (Closes RT#41153)

383 - Don't stringify the meta method. Use its name instead.
384 - Use MooseX::MethodAttributes::Inheritable to contain action
385 attributes. This means that attributes are now represented in the MOP,
386 allowing method modifiers on actions to work as expected.
387 - Provide a reasonable API in Catalyst::Controller for working with
388 and registering actions, allowing a controller sub-class to replace
389 subroutine attributes for action declerations with an alternate
391 - Instantiate correct sub-class of Moose::Meta::Class for non-Moose
392 components where Catalyst forces the creation of a metaclass instance.
393 This is more correct, and avoids metaclass incompatibility in complex
396 - Use of deprecated Catalyst::Base now warns.

449 method on the requests HTTP::Body instance
451 - Fix calling $c->req->body from inside an overridden prepare_action
452 method in a plugin, as used by Catalyst::Plugin::Server
454 - Fix assignment to Catalyst::Dispatcher's preload_dispatch_types and
455 postload_dispatch_types attributes - assigning a list should later

479 for the setup_log method, which previously had none.
480 Sewn together by from two patches provided by David E. Wheeler

608 2) you call a component resolution method with a string, and it resorts to a regexp
609 fallback wherein a result is returned -- if you really want to search, call the
610 method with a regex as the argument
