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
14 - Log flush moved to the end of setup so that roles and plugins which
15 hook setup_finalize can log things and have them appear in application
16 startup, rather than with the first hit.
17 - Require a newer version of LWP to avoid failing tests.
18 - Stop warnings when actions are forwarded to during dispatch.
19 - Remove warnings for using Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_types as this is a
20 valid method to publicly call on the dispatcher.
23 - Document no-args call to $c->uri_for.
24 - Document all top level application configuration parameters.
25 - Clarify how to fix actions in your application class (which is
26 deprecated and causes warnings).
27 - Pod fixes for ContextClosure.
28 - Fix documentation for go/visit to reference captures and arguments
30 - Update $c->forward and $c->state documentation to address scalar
34 - Added disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config option to
35 switch off (deprecated) regex fallback for component resolution.
36 - Added an nginx-specific behavior to the FastCGI engine to allow
37 proper PATH_INFO and SCRIPT_NAME processing for non-root applications
38 - Enable Catalyst::Utils::home() to find home within Dist::Zilla built
41 Refactoring / cleanups:
42 - Remove documentation for the case_sensitive setting
43 - Warning is now emitted at application startup if the case_sensitive
44 setting is turned on. This setting is not used by anyone, not
45 believed to be useful and adds unnecessary complexity to controllers
46 and the dispatcher. If you are using this setting and have good reasons
47 why it should stay then you need to be shouting, now.
48 - Writing to $c->req->body now fails as doing this never makes sense.
50 5.80013 2009-09-17 11:07:04
53 - Preserve immutable_options when temporarily making a class mutable in
54 Catalyst::ClassData as this is needed by new Class::MOP.
55 This could have potentially caused issues when using the deprecated runtime
56 plugins feature in an application with plugins which define their own new
58 - Require new Moose version and new versions of various dependencies
59 to avoid warnings from newest Moose release.
60 - Fix go / visit expecting captures and arguments in reverse order.
63 - Rework the $c->go documentation to make it more clear.
64 - Additional documentation in Catalyst::Upgrading covering more deprecation
67 Refactoring / cleanups:
68 - Action methods in the application class are deprecated and applications
69 using them will now generate a warning at startup.
70 - The -short option has been removed from catalyst.pl, stopping new
71 applications from being generated using the ::[MVC]:: naming scheme as
72 this is deprecated and generates warnings. RT#49771
74 5.80012 2009-09-09 19:09:09
77 - Fix t/optional_http-server.t test.
78 - Fix t/optional_http-server-restart.t test.
79 - Fix duplicate components being loaded at setup time, each component is
80 now loaded at most once + tests.
81 - Fix backward compatibility - hash key configured actions are stored in
82 is returned to 'actions'.
83 - Fix get_action_methods returning duplicate methods when a method is both
84 decorated with method attributes and set as an action in config.
86 Refactoring / cleanups:
87 - Reduce minimum supported perl version from 5.8.6 to 5.8.4 as there are
88 many people still running/testing this version with no known issues.
91 - Make the optional_http_server.t test an author only test which must be
92 run by authors to stop it being broken again.
93 - Fix recursion warnings in the test suites.
95 5.80011 2009-08-23 13:48:15
98 - Remove leftovers of the restarter engine. The removed code caused test
99 failures, which weren't apparent for anyone still having an old version
102 5.80010 2009-08-21 23:32:15
105 - Fix and add tests for a regression introduced by 5.80008.
106 Catalyst::Engine is now able to send out data from filehandles larger
107 than the default chunksize of 64k again.
109 5.80009 2009-08-21 22:21:08
112 - Fix and add tests for generating inner packages inside the COMPONENT
113 method, and those packages being correctly registered as components.
114 This fixes Catalyst::Model::DBIC among others.
116 5.80008 2009-08-21 17:47:30
119 - Fix replace_constructor warning to actually work if you make your
120 application class immutable without that option.
121 - Depend on Module::Pluggable 3.9 to prevent a bug wherein components
122 in inner packages might not be registered. This especially affected
124 - Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI - relax the check for versions of Microsoft
125 IIS. Provides compatibility with Windows 2008 R2 as well as
126 (hopefully) future versions.
127 - In tests which depend on the values of environment variables,
128 localise the environment, then delete only relevant environment
130 - Fix issue with Engine::HTTP not sending headers properly in some cases
132 - Make Catalyst::Engine write at least once when finalizing the response
133 body from a filehandle, even if the write is empty. This avoids fail
134 when trying to send out an empty response body from a filehandle.
135 - Catalyst::Engine::HTTP - Accept a fully qualified absolute URI in the
136 Request-URI of the Request-Line
138 Refactoring / cleanups:
139 - Deleted the Restarter engine and its Watcher code. Use the
140 new Catalyst::Restarter in a recent Catalyst::Devel instead.
141 - New unit test for Catalyst::Action 'unit_core_action.t'
142 - Bump minimum supported perl version from 5.8.1 to 5.8.6 as there are
143 known issues with 5.8.3.
144 - Debug output uses dynamic column sizing to create more readable output
145 when using a larger $ENV{COLUMNS} setting. (groditi)
148 - Added private_path method for Catalyst::Action
149 - Allow uri_for($controller_instance) which will produce a URI
150 for the controller namespace
151 - Break setup_components into two more parts: locate_components and
152 expand_component_module (rjbs)
153 - Allow Components to return anon classed from their COMPONENT method
154 correctly, and have action registration work on Controllers returned
155 as such by adding a catalyst_component_name accessor for all components
156 which returns the component instance's name to be used when building
158 - Adding X-Forwarded-Port to allow the frontend proxy to dictate the
159 frontend port (jshirley)
160 - Added Catalyst::Stats->created accessor for the time at the start of
164 - Fix POD to refer to ->config(key => $val), rather than
165 ->config->{key} = $val, as the latter form is deprecated.
166 - Clearer docs for the 'uri_for' method.
167 - Fix POD refering to CGI::Cookie. We're using CGI::Simple::Cookie.
170 5.80007 2009-06-30 23:54:34
173 - Don't mangle query parameters passed to uri_for
174 - Tests for this (Byron Young + Amir Sadoughi)
175 - Inherited controller methods can now be specified in
177 - Assigning an undef response body no longer produces warnings
178 - Fix C3 incompatibility bug caused if you use Moose in MyApp.pm and
179 add Catalyst to the right hand side of this in @ISA.
180 - Make Catalyst.pm implement the Component::ApplicationAttribute
181 interface so defining actions in MyApp.pm works again, if the
182 actions have attributes that cause $self->_application to be used
186 - Add optional second argument to uri_with which appends to existing
187 params rather than replacing them. (foo=1 becomes foo=1&foo=2 when
188 uri_with({ foo => 2 }, { mode => 'append' }) is called on a foo=1
191 5.80006 2009-06-29 23:37:47
194 - Revert change to URL encode things passed into $c->uri_for
195 Args and CaptureArgs as this causes breakage to pre-existing
197 - Remove use of Test::MockObject as it doesn't install from CPAN
198 in some environments.
199 - Remove use of dclone to deep copy configs and replace with
200 Catalyst::Utils::merge_hashes which has the same effect, of
201 ensuring child classes don't inherit their parent's config,
202 except works correctly with closures.
203 - Add Class::C3::reinitialize into Catalyst::Test to avoid weird
204 bugs in ctx_request (bokutin in RT#46459)
205 - Fix issues with _parse_PathPrefix_attr method in Catalyst::Controller
207 - Fix bugs with action sorting:
208 - Path actions sorted so that the most specific wins.
209 - Action methods named default and index fixed.
212 - Use ~ as prefix for plugins or action classes which are located in
213 MyApp::Plugin / MyApp::Action (mo)
214 - Controller methods without attributes are now considered actions if
215 they are specified in config->{action(s)} (mo)
216 - Add Catalyst::Component::ContextClosure as an easy way to create code
217 references, that close over the context, without creating leaks.
219 Refactoring / cleanups:
220 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Exception*.
221 - Turn Catalyst::Exception into an actual class and make the throw
222 method create instances of it. They can still be used as normal
223 strings, as before, as they are overloaded to stringify to their
225 - Add a rethrow method to Catalyst::Exception.
226 - Add Catalyst::Exception::Detach and ::Go, and refactor detach() and
227 go() to use them instead of magic, global strings.
229 - Clean up getting metaclass instance and making app class immutable
230 again in Catalyst::Test
232 5.80005 2009-06-06 14:40:00
235 - Arguments ($c->req->args) in Chained dispatch are now automatically
236 URL decoded to be consistent with Local/Path dispatch
239 - Clarify correct techniques for Moose controllers (domm)
242 - Further change pushing 'env' attribute down into Catalyst::Engine
243 to make $c->engine->env work in all cases (kmx)
244 - Also fix $c->engine->env in Catalyst::Test tests (kmx)
246 - Fix Catalyst failing to start if any plugin changed $_ whilst
249 - Be stricter about arguments to Args attributes for Chained actions,
250 so that they blow up on load instead of causing undefined behavior
253 - Prefer Path actions with a smaller (or set) number of Args (caelum)
254 Bug reported here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/931653/catalyst-action-that-matches-a-single-file-in-the-root-directory/933181#933181
258 - Add $c->req->remote_user to disambiguate from $c->req->user (dwc)
259 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.12 so that action methods
260 (with attributes) can be used in / composed from Moose roles.
261 - Allow the generation of cookies with the HTTPOnly flag set
262 in Catalyst::Engine (kmx)
264 5.80004 2009-05-18 17:03:23
265 - Rename the actions attribute in Catalyt::Controller to
266 _controller_actions to avoid name clashes with application
267 controller naming. (random)
268 - Test for using Moose in components which have a non-Moose base class
269 Fixed by 349cda in Moose 0.78
270 - Fix deprecation message for Catalyst::Dispatcher to refer
271 to the class actually calling the deprecated method. RT#45741
272 - Clarify limitations of $request->base and $request->secure.
274 - Add 'use Catalyst' to documentation for a Moose MyApp class as
276 - Fix so that / (and other special characters) are URL encoded when
277 passed into $c->uri_for as Args/CaptureArgs
278 - Fix development server so that $c->engine->env returns the correct
280 - Require Moose 0.78 to fix metaclass incompatibility issues
281 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.10 and use
282 Moose::Meta::Class->initialize rather than Moose->init_meta to fix
283 bugs related to having a 'meta' method in your controller
284 - Fix cases where your application failing to compile could cause perl
285 to report 'Unknown Error'
286 - Support adding Moose::Roles to the plugin list. These are applied to
287 MyApp after plugins have been pushed onto @ISA
288 - Fix calling $c->req->parameters as the first thing you do when
289 parse_on_demand is on

298 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange
299 - Fix the unattached chain debug table for endpoints with no
301 - Turn of test aggregation by default. Only aggregate if the
302 AGGREGATE_TESTS environment variable is set and a recent
303 Test::Aggregate is available.
304 - Bump to MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.09, to gain the
305 get_nearest_methods_with_attributes method allowing methods without
306 attributes in a subclass to override those with attributes in a
307 superclass. This fixes CatalystX::CRUD's method of overriding /
308 disabling functionality from base controllers.

316 + tests from RT#39369 (norbi)
317 - Partial rewrite and reoganisation of the C3 docs in
318 Catalyst::Upgrading based on feedback from kiffin
319 - If you make your application class immutable and turn off
320 constructor inlining, Catalyst will die and tell you pass
321 the (replace_constructor => 1) argument to
322 make_immutable. (Dave Rolsky)
324 5.80002 2009-04-22 01:28:36
325 - Fix CATALYST_DEBUG and MYAPP_DEBUG environment variables
326 turning debuging on if defined, rather than if set.
327 They now force debugging on or off, taking precedence over
328 configuration in your application.
330 - pass replace_constructor to the immutable call to ensure
331 applications get a Moose constructor rather than a C::A one
332 - Fix issues with restarting the application class due to C3 failures
334 - Work around issues in Moose with initialization order of multiple
335 levels of non-Moose classes inheriting from a Moose class

340 the request parameters with undef + test
341 - Fix so that width of table of unattached actions for debugging
342 ::DispatchType::Chained varies according to your terminal width
344 - Fix warning message about linearized @ISA in Catalyst::Component
346 - Require MX::MethodAttributes 0.06 to avoid issues with saying

352 warning on recent Moose versions.
353 - Add delta documentation
354 - Clean up recursion errors
355 - Extra cross links in dispatch types POD (Ian Wells)
356 - Test uri_with clears query params when they are set to undef
358 - Complain about old Catalyst::Devel versions which generated
359 ->setup(qw/-Debug... etc. as this is not recommended
361 5.8000_07 2009-04-12 13:37
362 - Add the Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_type method (ash)
363 - Throw an exception rather than loading an app if an action
364 tries to chain to itself
366 - Change the $c->visit and $c->go methods to optionally take
367 CaptureArgs, making them useful to call ActionChains with
368 - Tests for this (radek)
369 - Fix _invoke_as_component method to find the proper action instance
370 for dispatchable actions so that ->visit or ->going to ActionChains
371 with qw/Class::Name method_name/ works correctly
372 - Tests for this (radek)
373 - Added Catalyst::Test::ctx_request to be able to inspect
374 the context object after a request is made (Jos Boumans)
375 - debug() POD rewrite (jhannah)
376 - Change the warning when you have conflicting components to
378 - Move NEXT use and testing deprecated features out to its own
379 test application so that the main TestApp isn't polluted with
381 - Add a warning for the old ::[MVC]:: style naming scheme
383 - Kill Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT warnings for the Catalyst:: namespace
384 in production versions
385 - Tidy up Catalyst::ClassData to ensure that all components get
386 the correct metaclass
387 - Make MyApp.pm restartable by unsetting setup_finished in
388 the restarter process
389 - Non-naive implementation of making mutable on restart using
390 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange if installed
392 - Naive implementation of making all components mutable in the
393 forked restart watcher process so native Moose apps using
394 immutable restart correctly.
396 - Bump Moose dependency to 0.70 so that we avoid nasty surprises
397 with is_class_loaded and perl 5.80 when you Moosify MyApp.pm
398 - Clarify that request arguments aren't unescaped automatically
399 (Simon Bertrang) (Closes RT#41153)

410 - Don't stringify the meta method. Use its name instead.
411 - Use MooseX::MethodAttributes::Inheritable to contain action
412 attributes. This means that attributes are now represented in the MOP,
413 allowing method modifiers on actions to work as expected.
414 - Provide a reasonable API in Catalyst::Controller for working with
415 and registering actions, allowing a controller sub-class to replace
416 subroutine attributes for action declerations with an alternate
418 - Instantiate correct sub-class of Moose::Meta::Class for non-Moose
419 components where Catalyst forces the creation of a metaclass instance.
420 This is more correct, and avoids metaclass incompatibility in complex
423 - Use of deprecated Catalyst::Base now warns.

457 - Fix request argumentss getting corrupted if you override the
458 dispatcher and call an action which detaches (for
459 Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL)

472 - Add backwards compatibility alias methods for private attributes on
473 Catalyst::Dispatcher which used to be public. Needed by
474 Catalyst::Plugin::Server and Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL
475 - Fix return value of $c->req->body, which delegates to the body
476 method on the requests HTTP::Body instance
478 - Fix calling $c->req->body from inside an overridden prepare_action
479 method in a plugin, as used by Catalyst::Plugin::Server
481 - Fix assignment to Catalyst::Dispatcher's preload_dispatch_types and
482 postload_dispatch_types attributes - assigning a list should later

485 - Change streaming test to serve itself rather than 01use.t, making
486 test sync for engines easier
487 - Refactor capturing of $app from Catalyst::Controller into
488 Catalyst::Component::ApplicationAttribute for easier reuse in other
490 - Make the test suites YAML dependency optional
491 - Make debug output show class name for the engine and dispatcher

505 - Make log levels additive, and add documentation and tests
506 for the setup_log method, which previously had none.
507 Sewn together by from two patches provided by David E. Wheeler
508 - Switch an around 'new' in Catalyst::Controller to a BUILDARGS
509 method as it's much neater and more obvious what is going on
510 - Add a clearer method on request and response _context
511 attributes, and use if from ::Engine rather than deleting
512 the key from the instance hash

553 for example Catalyst::Plugin::SmartURI
554 - Test for this (caelum)
555 - Compose the MooseX::Emulate::Class::Accessor::Fast role to
