Use column accessor for updating an existing object instead of passing the new values...

[catagits/Catalyst-Controller-DBIC-API.git] / Changes

Revision history for Catalyst-Controller-DBIC-API: {{ $dist->version }}

{{ $NEXT }}

- Fixed search for related columns overwriting existing params in generate_column_parameters
- Use column accessor for updating an existing object instead of passing the new values to update.
  This enables the column accessors to do additional work (for example with method modifiers).

2.002001  2010-04-01 01:41:11 Europe/Berlin

- Remove debugging code and other noise from tests
- Fixed some typos and code cleanups
- Added possibility to fetch a single object by id + tests using 'item'
- Added item_root attribute which defaults to 'data' and is used as data root for 'item'
- Break out bulk actions into their own methods for RPC
- Restore identifer vs. no identifer for REST chains
- Chain dispatching has now been fixed to not be as hackish as before
- Shift around where the current result set is set. setup() now does /nothing/ by default other than be a chain anchor
- Tests added for updating related keys via REST
- generate_rs is now used to get the default resultset inside inflate_request
- No longer uses Catalyst::Action::REST to do dispatching instead uses ActionRole and MatchRequestMethod
- PLEASE THOROUGHLY TEST AS SOME BEHAVIOR MAY HAVE BEEN ALTERED SUBTLY WHEN DEALING WITH BULK vs SINGLE ACTIONS

- Fill out some coercions to allow more complex search criteria (like sort order)
- Promote the helper functions into full methods
- Allow iterative customization by breaking down the save_objects into several discrete steps
- Make sure those steps also include $c

2.001002  2010-02-09 01:01:57 America/Chicago

- Fixed missing requirement for MooseX::Types::Structured
- Fixed MooseX::Aliases usage (we don't any more)
- Object inflation during end was broken out into its own method: each_object_inflate
- Enable offset based paging

**************************************************************
** THIS RELEASE GUARANTEES TO BREAK BACKWARDS COMPATIBILITY **
**************************************************************

- Merge create and update into update_or_create
- object is much advanced now:
      + Identifier can be omitted, and data_root in the request is interpreted
- Because of the above one object or several is now possible for update or create
- Create and Update object validation now happens iteratively
- Creates and Updates can be mixed inside a single bulk request
- All modifying actions on the database occur within an all-or-nothing transaction
- Much of the DBIC search parameter munging is properly moved to the RequestArguments 
    Role in the form of a trigger on 'search' to populate 'search_parameters' and 
    'search_attributes' which correspond directly to ->search($parameters, $attributes);
- Error handling is now much more consistent, using Try::Tiny everywhere possible
- Tests are now modernized and use JSON::Any
- Extending is now explicitly done via Moose method modifiers
- The only portion of the stash in use is to allow runtime definition of create/update_allows
- list is now broken down into several steps:
    + list_munge_parameters
    + list_perform_search
    + list_format_output
    + row_format_output (which is just a passthrough per row)
- Search can now take an array of hashrefs to give the ability to use the default 'OR' 
- By default search_parameters is an ArrayRef[HashRef] which is pertinent to list_munge_parameters
- More thorough documentation of the various bits and pieces.
    + Documentation now uses Pod::Weaver and Plugin::PodWeaver (weaver.ini added)
- The distribution is now managed by Dist::Zilla
- And some more likely forgotten.

1.004002
- Implement 'as' as a complement to 'select'
- CGI::Expand'ed search parameters are now also JSON decoded + test
- Fixed pod for parameters using a json string which shouldn't be surrounded
  by single quotes
- Use next instead of NEXT in RPC
- Moved sub object from RPC/REST to Base to DRY
  This will break your code if you subclass from REST
  and had relied on the action name 'object'
- Check for defined objects before returning them for create/update

1.004001
- Allow for more complex prefetch_allows (multiple keys in hash)
- Skip non-existant parameters in deserialization
- Fixed whitespace to use spaces instead of tabs
- Fixed pod to not use the config attributes from before 1.004
- Fixed prefetch_allows check to properly handle nested attrs + test

1.004000
- Moosify
- Move validation for *_exposes/*_allows to Data::DPath::Validator
- Reorganize internals to use Moose and roles
- Allow maximum configuration for what request parameters are named
- Properly handle JSON boolean values
- Earlier and more consistent validation of configuration and request parameters

1.003004
- Database errors are also handled for searches + tests
- Totalcount isn't included in the response if a db error occurs while fetching data
- Converted no_plan tests to done_testing (required Test::More 0.88)

1.003003
- Database errors are properly handled + test
- Fixed isa redefined warnings
- Fixed bug preventing compat with future Catalyst::Action::Deserialize versions

1.003002
- Added totalcount to paged list responses
- Fixed some tests weren't run in t/rpc/list.t
- Fixed wrong setup_dbic_args_method error message

1.003001
- Minor fix to prevent failing test

1.003000
- Added prefetch support
- Refactored to ensure all request params accept JSON, CGI::Expand or standard params
- Doc improvements

1.002000
- Better error handing when unable to parse search arg
- Added setup_dbic_args_method config option
- Added list_search_exposes config option
- Removed duplicate tests in t/rpc/list.t and t/rest/list.t
- Fixed searches on columns which have a rel with the same name
  and vice versa
- Added search by json
- Added pagination support

1.001000
- Added setup_list_method configuration flag (jshirley)
- Added support for setting config params in stash
- Added list_grouped_by, list_count and list_ordered_by config attributes
- Fixed bug with behaviour of list_returns

1.000002
- Fixed lack of deserialization under RPC

1.000001
