10 Add Catalyst::Action::Deserialize::JSON::XS
12 Fix JSON::XS useage to depend on JSON.pm v2.0, and rely on the
13 fact that can be backed by XS code, by explicitly setting
14 $ENV{'PERL_JSON_BACKEND'} = 2

46 how the REST data is parsed/generated (bphillips)
48 Sat 01 Oct 2011 11:04:00 BST - Release 0.92
49 Add a Catalyst::Action::DeserializeMultiPart, allowing one part of a multipart
50 request to be deserialized as the REST data (allowing other parts to be used for
51 file uploads, for example) (bphillips)
53 Thu 04 Aug 2011 14:37:21 CEST - Release 0.91
54 For the deserialization action class, make the HTTP methods it operates on
55 configurable on a per-action level (plu, rafl).
57 Fri 25 Feb 2011 13:56:00 GMT - Release 0.90
58 Remove test which is no longer applicable and fails in the latest Catalyst
61 Mon 24 Jan 2011 21:57:42 GMT - Release 0.89
62 All classes are now made immutable. (Dave Rolsky)
64 Added a Catalyst::Action::REST::ForBrowsers class. This will try to dispatch
65 GET requests to a foo_GET_html method before trying foo_GET. (Dave Rolsky)
67 Tue 11 Jan 2011 23:07:00 GMT - Release 0.88
68 Fix documentation for overriding Serialize and Deserialize actions
69 in Catalyst::Controller::REST.
71 Avoid warning with empty response bodies and new Catalyst version
74 Returning a body of '' is now possible - Catalyst::Action::Serialize
75 acts like Catalyst::Action::RenderView (>= 0.16) by using the has_body
76 predicate in Catalyst::Response (>= 5.80030)
78 Wed 3 Nov 2010 19:46:00 GMT - Release 0.87
80 Fix Request class role when used with new Moose and other request

88 Make Data::Dumper unserializer safer by using a Safe compartment (Ton Voon)
90 Thu 13 May 2010 10:09:19 CEST - Release 0.85
92 Make Catalyst::Action::Serialize::View return directly rather than serializing
93 a response for 3XX status codes. This stops back-compat breakage from the
94 previous change (in 0.84), whilst also allowing actual data serializers
97 Fix docs in Catalyst::TraitFor::Request::REST::ForBrowsers. (RT#54983)
99 Thu 6 May 2010 09:27:56 BST - Release 0.84

103 Add a status_multiple_choices helper method to the Controller base class.
105 Allow 3XX responses to be serialized.
107 Mon 8 Feb 2010 22:17:12 GMT - Release 0.83
108 Make it possible to deserialize a request with a DELETE method. This probably
109 breaks 'strict' REST guidelines, but is useful for being able to delete multiple
110 resources from a single call by providing a batch delete method.
112 Remove JSONP from the list of default serializers (RT#54336)
114 Fix MANIFEST (RT#54408)
116 Thu 4 Feb 2010 22:31:57 GMT - Release 0.82
118 Integrated Catalyst::Request::REST::ForBrowsers as
119 Catalyst::TraitFor::Request::ForBrowsers. (Dave Rolsky)
121 Clarified docs so that they encourage the use of the request traits, rather
122 than using Catalyst::Request::REST. (Dave Rolsky)
124 When Catalyst::Action::REST or Controller::REST automatically add the trait,
125 your request class will no longer end up getting set to
126 Catalyst::Request::REST. Instead, creates an anon class with the appropriate
129 Shut up log output from the tests. (Dave Rolsky)
131 Added a $VERSION to every module, mostly to make sure that when people
132 install Catalyst::Request::REST::ForBrowsers, they get the version in this
133 distro. (Dave Rolsky)
135 Change Catalyst::Action::Serialize, Catalyst::Action::Deserialize and
136 Catalyst::Action::SerializeBase to be more Moose like.
138 Fix JSON and JSON::XS to encode_blessed. (fREW)
140 Fix Catalyst::Action::Serialize to use objects instead of classes. (fREW)
142 Fix doc nits. (RT#53780)
144 Thu 14 Jan 20:56:00 GMT 2010 - Release 0.81

148 Sat 19 Dec 14:54:00 GMT 2009 - Release 0.80
150 Convert all classes to Moose
152 Change Catalyst::Request::REST to be a mostly empty class, with
153 all the functionality in Catalyst::TraitFor::Request::REST
155 Simplify _get_allowed_methods method (aristotle)
157 Rework serializer return so that serializers throw an exception in
158 the case of issues serializing the data (hobbs).
160 Fri 11 Dec 01:08:00 GMT 2009 - Release 0.79
162 Cope with invalid (missing required q parameter) header like:
163 application/json; charset="utf-8"
165 Fix documentation to not mention deprecated things and generally be
168 Make author information consistant and only in one module.
170 Mon 28 Sep 15:01:03 BST 2009 - Release 0.78

179 Fix test if CATALYST_DEBUG environment variable is set
181 Fri Aug 21 21:20:52 BST 2009 - Release 0.76
183 Added two new status response helpers (202 no content and 410 gone),
184 and tests - Franck Cuny
186 Mon Aug 17 14:07:41 BST 2009 - Release 0.75
188 Fix optional test failures in catalyst-action-serialize-accept.t
190 Added a serializer for JSON::XS
192 Made test independent of YAML::Syck bugs (dandv)
194 Wed Jul 22 23:49:16 BST 2009 (t0m) - Release 0.74
196 Switch from NEXT to MRO::Compat (agladdish).
198 Add display of additional REST actions in the stats, and also fix a warning
199 in Catalyst 5.80 when you forward to another action from inside an
200 action_FOO method (as it was confusing the stats).
204 Catalyst::Action::REST no longer @ISA Catalyst or Catalyst::Controller.
206 Change constructor to call next::method instead of SUPER::
208 Change method used to find the application class to be more correct

262 Updated my contact information.
265 Thu Jan 3 19:42:16 EST 2008

268 Fixed RT#32042 - Import of Params::Validate :all plays badly
269 with subclasses that have their own validate()
270 Fixed RT#30456 - Debug messages print even with debugging disabled
272 Thu Jan 3 08:54:09 PST 2008
273 Fixed an issue where YAML::Syck versions 0.92 require $c->request->body to
276 Fri Dec 21 15:23:46 EDT 2007
277 Updated the configuration specifiers to operate more in line with the way
278 Catalyst expects. Most notably component based configuration through
279 "Controller::RestClass" now works. "serialize" at the top level simply
280 is suggested defaults that all REST classes inherit.
282 Wed Jul 04 11:17:20 EDT 2007
283 Fixed 'default' serializer to set a valid Content-Type: header. Fixes
284 RT ticket 27949. Note that behavior has changed -- the default
285 serializer must now be specified as a content-type, not as a plugin
286 name. (dmo@roaringpenguin.com)
288 Thu May 24 14:01:06 PDT 2007 (adam) - Release 0.41
289 Moved a bogus $self->class to $c->component($self->class)
291 Fri Mar 9 14:13:29 PST 2007 (adam) - Release 0.40
292 Refactored the Content-Type negotiation to live in Catalyst::Request::REST. (drolsky)
293 Added some useful debugging. (drolsky)
294 Added a View serializer/deserializer, which simply calls the correct
295 Catalyst view. ('text/html' => [ 'View', 'TT' ]) (claco, adam)
297 Wed Dec 6 00:45:02 PST 2006 (adam) - Release 0.31
298 Fixed a bug where we would report a blank content-type negotiation.
299 Added Data::Dump as a dependency.
301 Tue Dec 5 13:02:08 PST 2006 (adam)
302 Made the YAML::HTML view automatically append content-type=text/html on
305 Sun Dec 3 12:24:16 PST 2006 (adam) - Release 0.30
306 Updated the Makefile to support optional installation of the different
307 Serialization formats.
308 Renamed some of the test cases, since the execution order doesn't
310 Fixed things so that not having a Serialization module returns 415.
311 Fixed things so that failure to Deserialize sends the proper status.
312 Refactored the Plugin loading to Catalyst::Action::SerializeBase.
313 Updated the Documentation.
314 Added a whole raft of serializers. (JSON, all the Data::Serializer
315 supported ones, and XML::Simple)
318 Thu Nov 30 23:51:04 PST 2006 (adam)
319 Refactored the Catalyst::Action::REST dispatch, so that the default
320 method is called before any _METHOD handlers. In addition, moved
321 the 405 Not Implemented handler to be foo_not_implemented, instead
322 of the default sub. (daisuke++ pointed out the inconsistency and
323 provided a patch, and I added the foo_not_implemented support)
325 Added in automated OPTIONS handler, which constructs the allow
326 header for you, just like the 405 handler. Can be overridden
327 with a normal _METHOD sub.
329 Refactored Test::Rest, so that it uses closures to create the
330 very similar $test->method() subs.
332 Added tests for Catalyst::Action::REST.
334 Thu Nov 30 17:14:51 PST 2006 (adam) - Release 0.2
335 Added documentation patch from Daisuke Maki (daisuke@endeworks.jp)

349 Added more status_ helpers
351 Thu Oct 19 16:04:33 PDT 2006 (adam)
352 Converted error helpers to return an object instead of plain-text. It's
353 a more consistent model than a text/plain error message.
354 Added logging to 4xx status handlers
