1 # This file documents the revision history for Perl extension Catalyst.
6 - Filehandle now forced to binmode in CGI and FastCGI engines. This appears
7 to correct some UTF-8 issues, but may break people's code which relies
10 Refactoring / cleanups:
11 - Plugins which inherit from Catalyst::Controller or Catalyst::Component
12 are deprecated and now issue warnings.
14 5.80014 2009-11-21 02:51:14
17 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.17. This in turn requires new
18 MooseX::Types to stop warnings in Moose 0.91, and correctly supports
19 role combination of roles containing attributed methods.
20 - Catalyst::Dispatcher::dispatch_types no longer throws deprecated warnings
21 as there is no recommended alternative.
22 - Improved the suggested fix warning when component resolution uses regex
23 fallback for fully qualified component names.
24 - Catalyst::Test::local_request sets ->request on the response.
25 - Log flush moved to the end of setup so that roles and plugins which
26 hook setup_finalize can log things and have them appear in application
27 startup, rather than with the first hit.
28 - Require a newer version of LWP to avoid failing tests.
29 - Stop warnings when actions are forwarded to during dispatch.
30 - Remove warnings for using Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_types as this is a
31 valid method to publicly call on the dispatcher.
32 - Args ($c->request->args) and CaptureArgs ($c->request->captrues)
33 passed to $c->uri_for with an action object ($c->action) will now
34 correctly round-trip when args or captures contain / as it is now
35 correctly uri encoded to %2F.
38 - Document no-args call to $c->uri_for.
39 - Document all top level application configuration parameters.
40 - Clarify how to fix actions in your application class (which is
41 deprecated and causes warnings).
42 - Pod fixes for ContextClosure.
43 - Fix documentation for go/visit to reference captures and arguments
45 - Update $c->forward and $c->state documentation to address scalar
47 - Pod fix in Catalyst::Request (RT#51490)
48 - Pod fixes to refer to ::Controller:: rather than ::C:: as the latter
49 is deprecated (RT#51489)
52 - Added disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config option to
53 switch off (deprecated) regex fallback for component resolution.
54 - Added an nginx-specific behavior to the FastCGI engine to allow
55 proper PATH_INFO and SCRIPT_NAME processing for non-root applications
56 - Enable Catalyst::Utils::home() to find home within Dist::Zilla built
58 - Added the Catalyst::Exception::Interface role defining the interface
59 exception classes need to implement.
60 - Added Catalyst::Exception::Basic as a basic implementation of
61 Catalyst::Exception::Interface and made the existing exception classes
64 Refactoring / cleanups:
65 - Remove documentation for the case_sensitive setting
66 - Warning is now emitted at application startup if the case_sensitive
67 setting is turned on. This setting is not used by anyone, not
68 believed to be useful and adds unnecessary complexity to controllers
69 and the dispatcher. If you are using this setting and have good reasons
70 why it should stay then you need to be shouting, now.
71 - Writing to $c->req->body now fails as doing this never makes sense.
73 5.80013 2009-09-17 11:07:04
76 - Preserve immutable_options when temporarily making a class mutable in
77 Catalyst::ClassData as this is needed by new Class::MOP.
78 This could have potentially caused issues when using the deprecated runtime
79 plugins feature in an application with plugins which define their own new
81 - Require new Moose version and new versions of various dependencies
82 to avoid warnings from newest Moose release.
83 - Fix go / visit expecting captures and arguments in reverse order.
86 - Rework the $c->go documentation to make it more clear.
87 - Additional documentation in Catalyst::Upgrading covering more deprecation
90 Refactoring / cleanups:
91 - Action methods in the application class are deprecated and applications
92 using them will now generate a warning at startup.
93 - The -short option has been removed from catalyst.pl, stopping new
94 applications from being generated using the ::[MVC]:: naming scheme as
95 this is deprecated and generates warnings. RT#49771
97 5.80012 2009-09-09 19:09:09
100 - Fix t/optional_http-server.t test.
101 - Fix t/optional_http-server-restart.t test.
102 - Fix duplicate components being loaded at setup time, each component is
103 now loaded at most once + tests.
104 - Fix backward compatibility - hash key configured actions are stored in
105 is returned to 'actions'.
106 - Fix get_action_methods returning duplicate methods when a method is both
107 decorated with method attributes and set as an action in config.
109 Refactoring / cleanups:
110 - Reduce minimum supported perl version from 5.8.6 to 5.8.4 as there are
111 many people still running/testing this version with no known issues.
114 - Make the optional_http_server.t test an author only test which must be
115 run by authors to stop it being broken again.
116 - Fix recursion warnings in the test suites.
118 5.80011 2009-08-23 13:48:15
121 - Remove leftovers of the restarter engine. The removed code caused test
122 failures, which weren't apparent for anyone still having an old version
125 5.80010 2009-08-21 23:32:15
128 - Fix and add tests for a regression introduced by 5.80008.
129 Catalyst::Engine is now able to send out data from filehandles larger
130 than the default chunksize of 64k again.
132 5.80009 2009-08-21 22:21:08
135 - Fix and add tests for generating inner packages inside the COMPONENT
136 method, and those packages being correctly registered as components.
137 This fixes Catalyst::Model::DBIC among others.
139 5.80008 2009-08-21 17:47:30
142 - Fix replace_constructor warning to actually work if you make your
143 application class immutable without that option.
144 - Depend on Module::Pluggable 3.9 to prevent a bug wherein components
145 in inner packages might not be registered. This especially affected
147 - Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI - relax the check for versions of Microsoft
148 IIS. Provides compatibility with Windows 2008 R2 as well as
149 (hopefully) future versions.
150 - In tests which depend on the values of environment variables,
151 localise the environment, then delete only relevant environment
153 - Fix issue with Engine::HTTP not sending headers properly in some cases
155 - Make Catalyst::Engine write at least once when finalizing the response
156 body from a filehandle, even if the write is empty. This avoids fail
157 when trying to send out an empty response body from a filehandle.
158 - Catalyst::Engine::HTTP - Accept a fully qualified absolute URI in the
159 Request-URI of the Request-Line
161 Refactoring / cleanups:
162 - Deleted the Restarter engine and its Watcher code. Use the
163 new Catalyst::Restarter in a recent Catalyst::Devel instead.
164 - New unit test for Catalyst::Action 'unit_core_action.t'
165 - Bump minimum supported perl version from 5.8.1 to 5.8.6 as there are
166 known issues with 5.8.3.
167 - Debug output uses dynamic column sizing to create more readable output
168 when using a larger $ENV{COLUMNS} setting. (groditi)
171 - Added private_path method for Catalyst::Action
172 - Allow uri_for($controller_instance) which will produce a URI
173 for the controller namespace
174 - Break setup_components into two more parts: locate_components and
175 expand_component_module (rjbs)
176 - Allow Components to return anon classed from their COMPONENT method
177 correctly, and have action registration work on Controllers returned
178 as such by adding a catalyst_component_name accessor for all components
179 which returns the component instance's name to be used when building
181 - Adding X-Forwarded-Port to allow the frontend proxy to dictate the
182 frontend port (jshirley)
183 - Added Catalyst::Stats->created accessor for the time at the start of
187 - Fix POD to refer to ->config(key => $val), rather than
188 ->config->{key} = $val, as the latter form is deprecated.
189 - Clearer docs for the 'uri_for' method.
190 - Fix POD refering to CGI::Cookie. We're using CGI::Simple::Cookie.
193 5.80007 2009-06-30 23:54:34
196 - Don't mangle query parameters passed to uri_for
197 - Tests for this (Byron Young + Amir Sadoughi)
198 - Inherited controller methods can now be specified in
200 - Assigning an undef response body no longer produces warnings
201 - Fix C3 incompatibility bug caused if you use Moose in MyApp.pm and
202 add Catalyst to the right hand side of this in @ISA.
203 - Make Catalyst.pm implement the Component::ApplicationAttribute
204 interface so defining actions in MyApp.pm works again, if the
205 actions have attributes that cause $self->_application to be used
209 - Add optional second argument to uri_with which appends to existing
210 params rather than replacing them. (foo=1 becomes foo=1&foo=2 when
211 uri_with({ foo => 2 }, { mode => 'append' }) is called on a foo=1
214 5.80006 2009-06-29 23:37:47
217 - Revert change to URL encode things passed into $c->uri_for
218 Args and CaptureArgs as this causes breakage to pre-existing
220 - Remove use of Test::MockObject as it doesn't install from CPAN
221 in some environments.
222 - Remove use of dclone to deep copy configs and replace with
223 Catalyst::Utils::merge_hashes which has the same effect, of
224 ensuring child classes don't inherit their parent's config,
225 except works correctly with closures.
226 - Add Class::C3::reinitialize into Catalyst::Test to avoid weird
227 bugs in ctx_request (bokutin in RT#46459)
228 - Fix issues with _parse_PathPrefix_attr method in Catalyst::Controller
230 - Fix bugs with action sorting:
231 - Path actions sorted so that the most specific wins.
232 - Action methods named default and index fixed.
235 - Use ~ as prefix for plugins or action classes which are located in
236 MyApp::Plugin / MyApp::Action (mo)
237 - Controller methods without attributes are now considered actions if
238 they are specified in config->{action(s)} (mo)
239 - Add Catalyst::Component::ContextClosure as an easy way to create code
240 references, that close over the context, without creating leaks.
242 Refactoring / cleanups:
243 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Exception*.
244 - Turn Catalyst::Exception into an actual class and make the throw
245 method create instances of it. They can still be used as normal
246 strings, as before, as they are overloaded to stringify to their
248 - Add a rethrow method to Catalyst::Exception.
249 - Add Catalyst::Exception::Detach and ::Go, and refactor detach() and
250 go() to use them instead of magic, global strings.
252 - Clean up getting metaclass instance and making app class immutable
253 again in Catalyst::Test
255 5.80005 2009-06-06 14:40:00
258 - Arguments ($c->req->args) in Chained dispatch are now automatically
259 URL decoded to be consistent with Local/Path dispatch
262 - Clarify correct techniques for Moose controllers (domm)
265 - Further change pushing 'env' attribute down into Catalyst::Engine
266 to make $c->engine->env work in all cases (kmx)
267 - Also fix $c->engine->env in Catalyst::Test tests (kmx)
269 - Fix Catalyst failing to start if any plugin changed $_ whilst
272 - Be stricter about arguments to Args attributes for Chained actions,
273 so that they blow up on load instead of causing undefined behavior
276 - Prefer Path actions with a smaller (or set) number of Args (caelum)
277 Bug reported here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/931653/catalyst-action-that-matches-a-single-file-in-the-root-directory/933181#933181
281 - Add $c->req->remote_user to disambiguate from $c->req->user (dwc)
282 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.12 so that action methods
283 (with attributes) can be used in / composed from Moose roles.
284 - Allow the generation of cookies with the HTTPOnly flag set
285 in Catalyst::Engine (kmx)
287 5.80004 2009-05-18 17:03:23
288 - Rename the actions attribute in Catalyt::Controller to
289 _controller_actions to avoid name clashes with application
290 controller naming. (random)

292 Fixed by 349cda in Moose 0.78
293 - Fix deprecation message for Catalyst::Dispatcher to refer
294 to the class actually calling the deprecated method. RT#45741
295 - Clarify limitations of $request->base and $request->secure.
297 - Add 'use Catalyst' to documentation for a Moose MyApp class as
299 - Fix so that / (and other special characters) are URL encoded when
300 passed into $c->uri_for as Args/CaptureArgs
301 - Fix development server so that $c->engine->env returns the correct
303 - Require Moose 0.78 to fix metaclass incompatibility issues
304 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.10 and use
305 Moose::Meta::Class->initialize rather than Moose->init_meta to fix
306 bugs related to having a 'meta' method in your controller
307 - Fix cases where your application failing to compile could cause perl
308 to report 'Unknown Error'
309 - Support adding Moose::Roles to the plugin list. These are applied to
310 MyApp after plugins have been pushed onto @ISA
311 - Fix calling $c->req->parameters as the first thing you do when
312 parse_on_demand is on

321 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange
322 - Fix the unattached chain debug table for endpoints with no
324 - Turn of test aggregation by default. Only aggregate if the
325 AGGREGATE_TESTS environment variable is set and a recent
326 Test::Aggregate is available.
327 - Bump to MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.09, to gain the
328 get_nearest_methods_with_attributes method allowing methods without
329 attributes in a subclass to override those with attributes in a

339 + tests from RT#39369 (norbi)
340 - Partial rewrite and reoganisation of the C3 docs in
341 Catalyst::Upgrading based on feedback from kiffin
342 - If you make your application class immutable and turn off
343 constructor inlining, Catalyst will die and tell you pass
344 the (replace_constructor => 1) argument to
345 make_immutable. (Dave Rolsky)
347 5.80002 2009-04-22 01:28:36
348 - Fix CATALYST_DEBUG and MYAPP_DEBUG environment variables
349 turning debuging on if defined, rather than if set.

351 configuration in your application.
353 - pass replace_constructor to the immutable call to ensure
354 applications get a Moose constructor rather than a C::A one
355 - Fix issues with restarting the application class due to C3 failures
357 - Work around issues in Moose with initialization order of multiple
358 levels of non-Moose classes inheriting from a Moose class

363 the request parameters with undef + test
364 - Fix so that width of table of unattached actions for debugging
365 ::DispatchType::Chained varies according to your terminal width
367 - Fix warning message about linearized @ISA in Catalyst::Component
369 - Require MX::MethodAttributes 0.06 to avoid issues with saying
370 use base 'Catalyst::Controller'; use Moose; losing actions
371 - Fix all of's typos in ::Upgrading and ::Delta (hobbs)
373 5.80001 2009-04-18 22:18
374 - Don't inline the constructor for Catalyst::Log to avoid a
375 warning on recent Moose versions.
376 - Add delta documentation
377 - Clean up recursion errors
378 - Extra cross links in dispatch types POD (Ian Wells)
379 - Test uri_with clears query params when they are set to undef
381 - Complain about old Catalyst::Devel versions which generated
382 ->setup(qw/-Debug... etc. as this is not recommended
384 5.8000_07 2009-04-12 13:37
385 - Add the Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_type method (ash)
386 - Throw an exception rather than loading an app if an action
387 tries to chain to itself
389 - Change the $c->visit and $c->go methods to optionally take
390 CaptureArgs, making them useful to call ActionChains with
391 - Tests for this (radek)
392 - Fix _invoke_as_component method to find the proper action instance
393 for dispatchable actions so that ->visit or ->going to ActionChains
394 with qw/Class::Name method_name/ works correctly
395 - Tests for this (radek)
396 - Added Catalyst::Test::ctx_request to be able to inspect
397 the context object after a request is made (Jos Boumans)
398 - debug() POD rewrite (jhannah)
399 - Change the warning when you have conflicting components to
401 - Move NEXT use and testing deprecated features out to its own
402 test application so that the main TestApp isn't polluted with
404 - Add a warning for the old ::[MVC]:: style naming scheme
406 - Kill Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT warnings for the Catalyst:: namespace
407 in production versions
408 - Tidy up Catalyst::ClassData to ensure that all components get
409 the correct metaclass
410 - Make MyApp.pm restartable by unsetting setup_finished in
411 the restarter process
412 - Non-naive implementation of making mutable on restart using
413 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange if installed
415 - Naive implementation of making all components mutable in the
416 forked restart watcher process so native Moose apps using
417 immutable restart correctly.
419 - Bump Moose dependency to 0.70 so that we avoid nasty surprises
420 with is_class_loaded and perl 5.80 when you Moosify MyApp.pm
421 - Clarify that request arguments aren't unescaped automatically
422 (Simon Bertrang) (Closes RT#41153)

433 - Don't stringify the meta method. Use its name instead.
434 - Use MooseX::MethodAttributes::Inheritable to contain action
435 attributes. This means that attributes are now represented in the MOP,
436 allowing method modifiers on actions to work as expected.
437 - Provide a reasonable API in Catalyst::Controller for working with
438 and registering actions, allowing a controller sub-class to replace
439 subroutine attributes for action declerations with an alternate
441 - Instantiate correct sub-class of Moose::Meta::Class for non-Moose
442 components where Catalyst forces the creation of a metaclass instance.
443 This is more correct, and avoids metaclass incompatibility in complex
446 - Use of deprecated Catalyst::Base now warns.

478 was not a hash in 5.8000_04. Extra parameter is now ignored if
480 - Fix request argumentss getting corrupted if you override the
481 dispatcher and call an action which detaches (for

494 - Replace {_body} instance access with calls to _body accessors
495 - Add backwards compatibility alias methods for private attributes on
496 Catalyst::Dispatcher which used to be public. Needed by
497 Catalyst::Plugin::Server and Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL
498 - Fix return value of $c->req->body, which delegates to the body
499 method on the requests HTTP::Body instance
501 - Fix calling $c->req->body from inside an overridden prepare_action
502 method in a plugin, as used by Catalyst::Plugin::Server
504 - Fix assignment to Catalyst::Dispatcher's preload_dispatch_types and
505 postload_dispatch_types attributes - assigning a list should later
506 return a listref. Fixes Catalyst::Plugin::Server.
508 - Change streaming test to serve itself rather than 01use.t, making
509 test sync for engines easier
510 - Refactor capturing of $app from Catalyst::Controller into
511 Catalyst::Component::ApplicationAttribute for easier reuse in other
513 - Make the test suites YAML dependency optional
514 - Make debug output show class name for the engine and dispatcher
515 rather than the stringified ref.
516 - Make MyApp immutable at the end of the scope after the setup

528 - Make log levels additive, and add documentation and tests
529 for the setup_log method, which previously had none.
530 Sewn together by from two patches provided by David E. Wheeler
531 - Switch an around 'new' in Catalyst::Controller to a BUILDARGS
532 method as it's much neater and more obvious what is going on
533 - Add a clearer method on request and response _context
534 attributes, and use if from ::Engine rather than deleting
535 the key from the instance hash
536 - Use handles on tree attribute of Catalyst::Stats to replace
537 trivial delegation methods
538 - Change the following direct hash accesses into attributes:
