1 # This file documents the revision history for Perl extension Catalyst.
4 - Clarify that uri_for_action works on private paths, with example.
7 - Saying use Catalyst::Test; (without an application name or () to stop
8 the importer running is now deprecated and will issue a warning.
9 You should be saying use Catalyst::Test ();
11 5.80017 2010-01-10 02:27:29
14 - Fix docs for ->forward method when passed a class name - this should
15 be a component name (e.g. View::HTML, not a full class name, like
19 - --daemon and -d options to Catalyst::Script::FastCGI are fixed.
20 - Fix the debug dump for applications which use Catalyst::Plugin::Session
22 - Fix regression in the case where mod_rewrite is being used to rewrite
23 requests into a path below your application base introduced with the
24 %2F related fixes in 5.80014_02.
25 - Do not crash on SIGHUP if Catalyst::Engine::HTTP->run is not passed the
26 argv key in the options hash.
27 - Correctly pass the arguments to Catalyst::Script::Server through to
28 Catalyst::Engine::HTTP->run so that the server can restart itself
29 with the correct options on SIGHUP.
30 - Require new MooseX::MethodAttributes to be compatible with Moose
32 - Require new MooseX::Role::WithOverloading to be compatible with Moose
36 - Stop suppressing warnings from Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT now that most plugins
37 have been updated to not use NEXT. If you get warnings then please upgrade
38 your components or log a bug with the component author if an upgrade is
39 not available. The Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT documentation contains information
40 about how to suppress the warnings in your application if you need to.
42 5.80016 2009-12-11 23:23:33
46 - Fix slurping a file to work correctly with binary on Win32 in the
47 encoding test controller.
49 Bug fixes in the new scripts (for applications which have been upgraded):
51 - Allow --restartdirectory as an option for the Server script, for
52 backwards compatibility. (Dave Rolsky)
53 - The --host option for the server script defaulted to localhost, rather
54 than listening on all interfaces, which was the previous default. (Dave
56 - Restore -p option for pid file in the FastCGI server script.
57 - Fix the script environment variables MYAPP_PORT and MYAPP_RELOAD RT#52604
58 - Fix aliasing applications under non-root paths with mod_rewrite in
59 some apache versions where %ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} is set to the real name of
60 the script, by using $ENV{REDIRECT_URL} which contains the non-rewritten
62 - Fix usage display when myapp_create.pl is run with no arguments. RT#52630
66 - The __MOP__ hash element is suppressed from being dumped fully
67 (and instead stringified) when dumping the error screen to be
68 less packed with information of no use.
72 - Fix Pod nits (RT#52370)
74 5.80015 2009-12-02 15:13:54
76 - Fix bug in Catalyst::Engine which would cause a request parsing to end
77 prematurely in the hypothetical case where calling $engine->read returned
78 the single character '0'.
79 - Fix failing tests when combined with new HTTP::Request::AsCGI
82 - Improved documentation on read and read_chunk methods in Catalyst::Engine.
83 - Fix reversal of SCRIPT_NAME and PATH_INFO in previously correct nginx
84 FastCGI documentation introduced in _02.
86 5.80014_02 2009-12-01 00:55:23
88 - Fix reporting the wrong Content-Length if the response body is an
89 upgraded string. Strings mean the same thing whether or not they are
90 upgraded, may get upgraded even after they are encoded, and will
91 produce the same output either way, but bytes::length returns too big
92 values for upgraded strings containing characters >127
93 - Fix t/live_fork.t with bleadperl (RT#52100)
94 - Set $ENV{PATH_INFO} from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} combined with
95 $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} if possible. This is many web servers always fully
96 decode PATH_INFO including URI reserved characters. This allows us to
97 tell foo%2cbar from foo%252cbar, and fixes issues with %2F in paths
98 being incorrectly decoded, resulting in too many path parts (rather
99 than 1 path part containing a /, on some web servers (at least nginx).
101 - Require new HTTP::Request::AsCGI so that it fully decodes $ENV{PATH_INFO}
102 in non CGI contexts. (RT#50082)
104 Refactoring / cleanups:
105 - NoTabs and Pod tests moved to t/author so that they're not run
106 (and then skipped) normally.
109 - Fix Pod nits in Catalyst::Response (RT#51818)
111 5.80014_01 2009-11-22 20:01:23
114 - Filehandle now forced to binmode in CGI and FastCGI engines. This appears
115 to correct some UTF-8 issues, but may break people's code which relies
116 on the old behaviour.
118 Refactoring / cleanups:
119 - Plugins which inherit from Catalyst::Controller or Catalyst::Component
120 are deprecated and now issue warnings.
122 5.80014 2009-11-21 02:51:14
125 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.17. This in turn requires new
126 MooseX::Types to stop warnings in Moose 0.91, and correctly supports
127 role combination of roles containing attributed methods.
128 - Catalyst::Dispatcher::dispatch_types no longer throws deprecated warnings
129 as there is no recommended alternative.
130 - Improved the suggested fix warning when component resolution uses regex
131 fallback for fully qualified component names.
132 - Catalyst::Test::local_request sets ->request on the response.
133 - Log flush moved to the end of setup so that roles and plugins which
134 hook setup_finalize can log things and have them appear in application
135 startup, rather than with the first hit.
136 - Require a newer version of LWP to avoid failing tests.
137 - Stop warnings when actions are forwarded to during dispatch.
138 - Remove warnings for using Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_types as this is a
139 valid method to publicly call on the dispatcher.
140 - Args ($c->request->args) and CaptureArgs ($c->request->captrues)
141 passed to $c->uri_for with an action object ($c->action) will now
142 correctly round-trip when args or captures contain / as it is now
143 correctly uri encoded to %2F.
146 - Document no-args call to $c->uri_for.
147 - Document all top level application configuration parameters.
148 - Clarify how to fix actions in your application class (which is
149 deprecated and causes warnings).
150 - Pod fixes for ContextClosure.
151 - Fix documentation for go/visit to reference captures and arguments
152 in the correct order.
153 - Update $c->forward and $c->state documentation to address scalar
155 - Pod fix in Catalyst::Request (RT#51490)
156 - Pod fixes to refer to ::Controller:: rather than ::C:: as the latter
157 is deprecated (RT#51489)
160 - Added disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config option to
161 switch off (deprecated) regex fallback for component resolution.
162 - Added an nginx-specific behavior to the FastCGI engine to allow
163 proper PATH_INFO and SCRIPT_NAME processing for non-root applications
164 - Enable Catalyst::Utils::home() to find home within Dist::Zilla built
166 - Added the Catalyst::Exception::Interface role defining the interface
167 exception classes need to implement.
168 - Added Catalyst::Exception::Basic as a basic implementation of
169 Catalyst::Exception::Interface and made the existing exception classes
172 Refactoring / cleanups:
173 - Remove documentation for the case_sensitive setting
174 - Warning is now emitted at application startup if the case_sensitive
175 setting is turned on. This setting is not used by anyone, not
176 believed to be useful and adds unnecessary complexity to controllers
177 and the dispatcher. If you are using this setting and have good reasons
178 why it should stay then you need to be shouting, now.
179 - Writing to $c->req->body now fails as doing this never makes sense.
181 5.80013 2009-09-17 11:07:04
184 - Preserve immutable_options when temporarily making a class mutable in
185 Catalyst::ClassData as this is needed by new Class::MOP.
186 This could have potentially caused issues when using the deprecated runtime
187 plugins feature in an application with plugins which define their own new
189 - Require new Moose version and new versions of various dependencies
190 to avoid warnings from newest Moose release.
191 - Fix go / visit expecting captures and arguments in reverse order.
194 - Rework the $c->go documentation to make it more clear.
195 - Additional documentation in Catalyst::Upgrading covering more deprecation
198 Refactoring / cleanups:
199 - Action methods in the application class are deprecated and applications
200 using them will now generate a warning at startup.
201 - The -short option has been removed from catalyst.pl, stopping new
202 applications from being generated using the ::[MVC]:: naming scheme as
203 this is deprecated and generates warnings. RT#49771
205 5.80012 2009-09-09 19:09:09
208 - Fix t/optional_http-server.t test.
209 - Fix t/optional_http-server-restart.t test.
210 - Fix duplicate components being loaded at setup time, each component is
211 now loaded at most once + tests.
212 - Fix backward compatibility - hash key configured actions are stored in
213 is returned to 'actions'.
214 - Fix get_action_methods returning duplicate methods when a method is both
215 decorated with method attributes and set as an action in config.
217 Refactoring / cleanups:
218 - Reduce minimum supported perl version from 5.8.6 to 5.8.4 as there are
219 many people still running/testing this version with no known issues.
222 - Make the optional_http_server.t test an author only test which must be
223 run by authors to stop it being broken again.
224 - Fix recursion warnings in the test suites.
226 5.80011 2009-08-23 13:48:15
229 - Remove leftovers of the restarter engine. The removed code caused test
230 failures, which weren't apparent for anyone still having an old version
233 5.80010 2009-08-21 23:32:15
236 - Fix and add tests for a regression introduced by 5.80008.
237 Catalyst::Engine is now able to send out data from filehandles larger
238 than the default chunksize of 64k again.
240 5.80009 2009-08-21 22:21:08
243 - Fix and add tests for generating inner packages inside the COMPONENT
244 method, and those packages being correctly registered as components.
245 This fixes Catalyst::Model::DBIC among others.
247 5.80008 2009-08-21 17:47:30
250 - Fix replace_constructor warning to actually work if you make your
251 application class immutable without that option.
252 - Depend on Module::Pluggable 3.9 to prevent a bug wherein components
253 in inner packages might not be registered. This especially affected
255 - Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI - relax the check for versions of Microsoft
256 IIS. Provides compatibility with Windows 2008 R2 as well as
257 (hopefully) future versions.
258 - In tests which depend on the values of environment variables,
259 localise the environment, then delete only relevant environment
261 - Fix issue with Engine::HTTP not sending headers properly in some cases
263 - Make Catalyst::Engine write at least once when finalizing the response
264 body from a filehandle, even if the write is empty. This avoids fail
265 when trying to send out an empty response body from a filehandle.
266 - Catalyst::Engine::HTTP - Accept a fully qualified absolute URI in the
267 Request-URI of the Request-Line
269 Refactoring / cleanups:
270 - Deleted the Restarter engine and its Watcher code. Use the
271 new Catalyst::Restarter in a recent Catalyst::Devel instead.
272 - New unit test for Catalyst::Action 'unit_core_action.t'
273 - Bump minimum supported perl version from 5.8.1 to 5.8.6 as there are
274 known issues with 5.8.3.
275 - Debug output uses dynamic column sizing to create more readable output
276 when using a larger $ENV{COLUMNS} setting. (groditi)
279 - Added private_path method for Catalyst::Action
280 - Allow uri_for($controller_instance) which will produce a URI
281 for the controller namespace
282 - Break setup_components into two more parts: locate_components and
283 expand_component_module (rjbs)
284 - Allow Components to return anon classed from their COMPONENT method
285 correctly, and have action registration work on Controllers returned
286 as such by adding a catalyst_component_name accessor for all components
287 which returns the component instance's name to be used when building
289 - Adding X-Forwarded-Port to allow the frontend proxy to dictate the
290 frontend port (jshirley)
291 - Added Catalyst::Stats->created accessor for the time at the start of
295 - Fix POD to refer to ->config(key => $val), rather than
296 ->config->{key} = $val, as the latter form is deprecated.
297 - Clearer docs for the 'uri_for' method.
298 - Fix POD refering to CGI::Cookie. We're using CGI::Simple::Cookie.
301 5.80007 2009-06-30 23:54:34
304 - Don't mangle query parameters passed to uri_for
305 - Tests for this (Byron Young + Amir Sadoughi)
306 - Inherited controller methods can now be specified in
308 - Assigning an undef response body no longer produces warnings
309 - Fix C3 incompatibility bug caused if you use Moose in MyApp.pm and
310 add Catalyst to the right hand side of this in @ISA.
311 - Make Catalyst.pm implement the Component::ApplicationAttribute
312 interface so defining actions in MyApp.pm works again, if the
313 actions have attributes that cause $self->_application to be used
317 - Add optional second argument to uri_with which appends to existing
318 params rather than replacing them. (foo=1 becomes foo=1&foo=2 when
319 uri_with({ foo => 2 }, { mode => 'append' }) is called on a foo=1
322 5.80006 2009-06-29 23:37:47
325 - Revert change to URL encode things passed into $c->uri_for
326 Args and CaptureArgs as this causes breakage to pre-existing
328 - Remove use of Test::MockObject as it doesn't install from CPAN
329 in some environments.
330 - Remove use of dclone to deep copy configs and replace with
331 Catalyst::Utils::merge_hashes which has the same effect, of
332 ensuring child classes don't inherit their parent's config,
333 except works correctly with closures.
334 - Add Class::C3::reinitialize into Catalyst::Test to avoid weird
335 bugs in ctx_request (bokutin in RT#46459)
336 - Fix issues with _parse_PathPrefix_attr method in Catalyst::Controller
338 - Fix bugs with action sorting:
339 - Path actions sorted so that the most specific wins.
340 - Action methods named default and index fixed.
343 - Use ~ as prefix for plugins or action classes which are located in
344 MyApp::Plugin / MyApp::Action (mo)
345 - Controller methods without attributes are now considered actions if
346 they are specified in config->{action(s)} (mo)
347 - Add Catalyst::Component::ContextClosure as an easy way to create code
348 references, that close over the context, without creating leaks.
350 Refactoring / cleanups:
351 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Exception*.
352 - Turn Catalyst::Exception into an actual class and make the throw
353 method create instances of it. They can still be used as normal
354 strings, as before, as they are overloaded to stringify to their
356 - Add a rethrow method to Catalyst::Exception.
357 - Add Catalyst::Exception::Detach and ::Go, and refactor detach() and
358 go() to use them instead of magic, global strings.
360 - Clean up getting metaclass instance and making app class immutable
361 again in Catalyst::Test
363 5.80005 2009-06-06 14:40:00
366 - Arguments ($c->req->args) in Chained dispatch are now automatically
367 URL decoded to be consistent with Local/Path dispatch
370 - Clarify correct techniques for Moose controllers (domm)
373 - Further change pushing 'env' attribute down into Catalyst::Engine
374 to make $c->engine->env work in all cases (kmx)
375 - Also fix $c->engine->env in Catalyst::Test tests (kmx)
377 - Fix Catalyst failing to start if any plugin changed $_ whilst
380 - Be stricter about arguments to Args attributes for Chained actions,
381 so that they blow up on load instead of causing undefined behavior
384 - Prefer Path actions with a smaller (or set) number of Args (caelum)
385 Bug reported here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/931653/catalyst-action-that-matches-a-single-file-in-the-root-directory/933181#933181
389 - Add $c->req->remote_user to disambiguate from $c->req->user (dwc)
390 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.12 so that action methods
391 (with attributes) can be used in / composed from Moose roles.
392 - Allow the generation of cookies with the HTTPOnly flag set
393 in Catalyst::Engine (kmx)
395 5.80004 2009-05-18 17:03:23
396 - Rename the actions attribute in Catalyt::Controller to
397 _controller_actions to avoid name clashes with application
398 controller naming. (random)
399 - Test for using Moose in components which have a non-Moose base class
400 Fixed by 349cda in Moose 0.78
401 - Fix deprecation message for Catalyst::Dispatcher to refer
402 to the class actually calling the deprecated method. RT#45741
403 - Clarify limitations of $request->base and $request->secure.
405 - Add 'use Catalyst' to documentation for a Moose MyApp class as
407 - Fix so that / (and other special characters) are URL encoded when
408 passed into $c->uri_for as Args/CaptureArgs
409 - Fix development server so that $c->engine->env returns the correct
411 - Require Moose 0.78 to fix metaclass incompatibility issues
412 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.10 and use
413 Moose::Meta::Class->initialize rather than Moose->init_meta to fix
414 bugs related to having a 'meta' method in your controller
415 - Fix cases where your application failing to compile could cause perl
416 to report 'Unknown Error'
417 - Support adding Moose::Roles to the plugin list. These are applied to
418 MyApp after plugins have been pushed onto @ISA
419 - Fix calling $c->req->parameters as the first thing you do when
420 parse_on_demand is on
422 5.80003 2009-04-29 16:23:53
423 - Various POD tweaks. (hdp, dandv)
424 - Fix formatting error in the regex fallback warning.
425 - Convert the dispatcher's and restarter engine's BUILD method to
426 attribute builders to not override the BUILD method from
427 MooseX::Emulate::Class::Accessor::Fast.
428 - Fix classes without metaclasses restarting, when not using
429 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange
430 - Fix the unattached chain debug table for endpoints with no
432 - Turn of test aggregation by default. Only aggregate if the
433 AGGREGATE_TESTS environment variable is set and a recent
434 Test::Aggregate is available.
435 - Bump to MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.09, to gain the
436 get_nearest_methods_with_attributes method allowing methods without
437 attributes in a subclass to override those with attributes in a
438 superclass. This fixes CatalystX::CRUD's method of overriding /
439 disabling functionality from base controllers.
440 - Bump HTTP::Request::AsCGI dependency to avoid broken version
441 - Bump Moose dependency to latest version to fix metaclass
442 incompatibility issues in some cases.
443 - Additional tests for setup_stats method.

445 - Fix RT#43375 by sorting results before testing them
446 - Fixes for uri_for_action when using Catalyst::DispatchType::Regex
447 + tests from RT#39369 (norbi)
448 - Partial rewrite and reoganisation of the C3 docs in
449 Catalyst::Upgrading based on feedback from kiffin
450 - If you make your application class immutable and turn off
451 constructor inlining, Catalyst will die and tell you pass
452 the (replace_constructor => 1) argument to
453 make_immutable. (Dave Rolsky)
455 5.80002 2009-04-22 01:28:36
456 - Fix CATALYST_DEBUG and MYAPP_DEBUG environment variables
457 turning debuging on if defined, rather than if set.
458 They now force debugging on or off, taking precedence over
459 configuration in your application.
461 - pass replace_constructor to the immutable call to ensure
462 applications get a Moose constructor rather than a C::A one
463 - Fix issues with restarting the application class due to C3 failures
465 - Work around issues in Moose with initialization order of multiple
466 levels of non-Moose classes inheriting from a Moose class
468 - Add backwards compatibility method for Catalyst::Log->body, which
469 has been made private
470 - Fix so that calling $c->req->parameters(undef) does not flatten
471 the request parameters with undef + test
472 - Fix so that width of table of unattached actions for debugging
473 ::DispatchType::Chained varies according to your terminal width
475 - Fix warning message about linearized @ISA in Catalyst::Component
477 - Require MX::MethodAttributes 0.06 to avoid issues with saying
478 use base 'Catalyst::Controller'; use Moose; losing actions
479 - Fix all of's typos in ::Upgrading and ::Delta (hobbs)
481 5.80001 2009-04-18 22:18
482 - Don't inline the constructor for Catalyst::Log to avoid a
483 warning on recent Moose versions.
484 - Add delta documentation
485 - Clean up recursion errors
486 - Extra cross links in dispatch types POD (Ian Wells)
487 - Test uri_with clears query params when they are set to undef
489 - Complain about old Catalyst::Devel versions which generated
490 ->setup(qw/-Debug... etc. as this is not recommended
492 5.8000_07 2009-04-12 13:37
493 - Add the Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_type method (ash)
494 - Throw an exception rather than loading an app if an action
495 tries to chain to itself
497 - Change the $c->visit and $c->go methods to optionally take
498 CaptureArgs, making them useful to call ActionChains with
499 - Tests for this (radek)
500 - Fix _invoke_as_component method to find the proper action instance
501 for dispatchable actions so that ->visit or ->going to ActionChains
502 with qw/Class::Name method_name/ works correctly
503 - Tests for this (radek)
504 - Added Catalyst::Test::ctx_request to be able to inspect
505 the context object after a request is made (Jos Boumans)
506 - debug() POD rewrite (jhannah)
507 - Change the warning when you have conflicting components to
509 - Move NEXT use and testing deprecated features out to its own
510 test application so that the main TestApp isn't polluted with
512 - Add a warning for the old ::[MVC]:: style naming scheme
514 - Kill Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT warnings for the Catalyst:: namespace
515 in production versions
516 - Tidy up Catalyst::ClassData to ensure that all components get
517 the correct metaclass
518 - Make MyApp.pm restartable by unsetting setup_finished in
519 the restarter process
520 - Non-naive implementation of making mutable on restart using
521 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange if installed
523 - Naive implementation of making all components mutable in the
524 forked restart watcher process so native Moose apps using
525 immutable restart correctly.
527 - Bump Moose dependency to 0.70 so that we avoid nasty surprises
528 with is_class_loaded and perl 5.80 when you Moosify MyApp.pm
529 - Clarify that request arguments aren't unescaped automatically
530 (Simon Bertrang) (Closes RT#41153)
531 - Don't require C3 for the MRO test
532 - Bump MX::Emulate::CAF prereq to support list assignment
533 - Remove useless column in chained action debug table.
534 - namespace::clean related cleanups
535 - Import related cleanups and consistency fixes
536 - Fix test suite TestApp /dump/env action
537 - Add $res->code as alias for $res->status
538 - Make Catalyst::ClassData compatible with the latest Class::MOP::Class
539 changes. Also depend on the latest Class::MOP.
540 - Add $c->uri_for_action method.
541 - Don't stringify the meta method. Use its name instead.
542 - Use MooseX::MethodAttributes::Inheritable to contain action
543 attributes. This means that attributes are now represented in the MOP,
544 allowing method modifiers on actions to work as expected.
545 - Provide a reasonable API in Catalyst::Controller for working with
546 and registering actions, allowing a controller sub-class to replace
547 subroutine attributes for action declerations with an alternate
549 - Instantiate correct sub-class of Moose::Meta::Class for non-Moose
550 components where Catalyst forces the creation of a metaclass instance.
551 This is more correct, and avoids metaclass incompatibility in complex
554 - Use of deprecated Catalyst::Base now warns.
557 5.8000_06 2009-02-04 21:00
558 - Disallow writing to config after setup
559 - Disallow calling setup more than once

564 - Improved upgrading documentation
565 - Seed the RNG in each FastCGI child process (Andrew Rodland)
566 - Properly report dynamic bind port for the development server
568 - Use the way documented by IO::Socket::INET to get the error message
569 after trying to create a listening socket (Closes RT#41828)
570 - Don't ignore SIGCHLD while handling requests with the dev server
573 5.8000_05 2008-29-01 00:00
