4 - Implement a match_captures hook which, if it exists on an action,
5 is called with the $ctx and \@captures and is expected to return
6 true to continue the chain matching and false to stop matching.
7 This can be used to implement action classes or roles which match
8 conditionally (for example only matching captures which are integers).
11 - Lighttpd script name fix is only applied for lighttpd versions
12 < 1.4.23. This should fix non-root installs of lighttpd in versions
14 - Prepare_action is now inside a try {} block, so that requests containing
15 bad unicode can be appropriately trapped by
16 Catalyst::Plugin::Unicode::Encoding
18 5.90006 - 2011-10-25 09:18:00
21 - A new 'run_options' class data method has been added to Catalyst.pm
22 This is used to store all the options passed by scripts, allowing
23 application authors to add custom options to their scripts then
24 get them passed through to the application.
27 - Clarify that if you manually write your own .psgi file, then optional
28 proxy support (via the using_frontend_proxy config value) will not be
29 enabled unless you explicitly apply the default middlewares from
30 Catalyst, or you apply the middleware manually.
33 - Fix issue due to perl internals bugs in 5.8 and 5.10 (not present in
34 other perl versions) require can pass the context inappropriately,
35 meaning that some methods of loading classes can fail due to void
36 context being passed throuh to make_immutable, causing it to not return
38 This bug caused loading Catalyst::Script::XXX to fail and is fixed
39 both by bumping the Class::Load dependency, and also adding an explicit
40 '1;' to the end of the classes, avoiding the context issue.
42 - Fix using_frontend_proxy support in mod_perl by using the psgi wrapped
43 in default middleware in mod_perl context, rather than the raw psgi.
45 5.90005 - 2011-10-22 13:35:00
49 - $c->uri_for_action can now take an array of CaptureArgs and Args
50 If you have an action which has both, then you can now say:
51 $c->uri_for_action('/myaction', [@captures, @args]);
52 whereas before you had to say:
53 $c->uri_for_action('/myaction', [@captures], @args);
54 The previous form is still supported, however in many cases it is
55 easier for the application code to not have to differentiate between
58 - Catalyst::ScriptRunner has been enhanced so that it will now
59 load and apply traits, making it easier to customise.
60 - MyApp::TraitFor::Script (if it exists) will be applied to all
61 scripts in the application.
62 - MyApp::TraitFor::Script::XXXX will be applied to the relevant script
63 (for example MyApp::TraitFor::Script::Server will be applied to
64 MyApp::Script::Server if it exists, or Catalyst::Script::Server
69 - Document how to get the vhost of the request in $c->req->hostname
71 - Remove documentation showing Global / Regex / Private actionsi
72 as whilst these still exist (and work), they are not recommended.
73 - Remove references to the -Engine flag.
74 - Remove references to the deprecated Catalyst->plugin method
75 - Spelling fixed (and tested) throughout the documentation
76 - Note that wrapping the setup method will not work with method modifiers
77 and provide an alternative.
79 5.90004 - 2011-10-11 17:12:00
83 - Don't guess engine class names when setting an engine through
86 5.90003 - 2011-10-05 08:32:00
89 - Make default body reponses for 302s W3C compliant. RT#71237
91 - Fix issue where groups of attributes to override controller actions
92 in config would be (incorrectly) overwritten, if the parser for that
93 attribute mangled the contents of the attribute. This was found
94 with Catalyst::Controller::ActionRole, where Does => [ '+Foo' ]
95 would be transformed to Does => [ 'Foo' ] and written back to config,
96 whereas Does => '+Foo' would not be changed in config. RT#65463
100 - Set a matching Content-type for the redirect if Catalyst sets the
101 body. This is for compatibility with a WatchGuard Firewall.
103 Backward compatibility fixes:
105 - Restore (an almost empty) Catalyst::Engine::HTTP to the dist for old
106 scripts which explictly require Catalyst::Engine::HTTP
110 - Document Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication fails tests unless
111 you use the latest version with Catalyst 5.9
113 - Clarify that prepare is called as a class method
115 - Clarify use of uri_for further. RT#57011
117 5.90002 - 2011-08-22 21:44:00
118 Backward compatibility fixes:
120 - Deploying via mod_perl in some cases is fixed by making
121 Catalyst::EngineLoader detect mod_perl in more generic
123 https://github.com/miyagawa/Plack/issues/239
127 - Fix incorrect example in Catalyst::PSGI.
128 - Add note that if you are using the PSGI engine, then $c->req->env
129 needs to become $c->engine->env when you upgrade.
131 5.90001 - 2011-08-15 22:42
133 Realise that we accidentally chopped a digit off the versioning scheme
134 without anyone noticing, which is a bad thing.
136 Feel like a fool. Well done t0m.
140 5.9000 - 2011-08-15 22:18
142 See Catalyst::Delta for the major changes in this release.
144 Changelog since the last TRIAL release:
146 Backward compatibility fixes:
148 - Fix calling MyApp->engine_class to set the engine class manually.
150 - Re-add a $res->headers->{status} field to Catalyst::Test responses.
151 This _should_ be accessed with $c->res->code instead, but is here
152 for backward compatibility.
156 - Documentation which was in the now removed Catalyst::Engine::* classes
157 has been moved to Catalyst::Manual::Deployment
161 - nginx specific behaviour is removed as it is not needed with any
162 web server configuration I can come up with (recommended config is
163 documented in Catalst::Manual::Deployment::nginx::FastCGI)
165 5.89003 2011-07-28 20:11:50 (TRIAL release)
167 Backward compatibility fixes:
169 - Application scripts which have not been upgraded to newer
170 Catalyst::Script::XXX style scripts have been fixed
174 - mod_perl handler fixed to work with application classes which have manually
177 - Scripts now force the Plack engine choice manually, rather than relying
178 on auto-detection, as the automatic mechanism gets it wrong if (for
179 example) Coro is loaded.
181 - Server script option for --fork --keepalive are now handled by loading
182 the Starman server, rather than silently ignored.
184 - Server script options for --background and --pid are now fixed by
185 using MooseX::Deamonize
187 - Plack middlewares to deal with issues in Lighttpd and IIS6 are now
188 automatically applied to applications and deployments which need them
189 (when there is not a user written .psgi script available).
190 This fixes compatibility with previous stable releases for applications
191 deployed in these environments.
195 - Catalyst::Test's remote_request method not uses Plack::Test to perform
199 - Added a Catalyst::PSGI manual page with information about writing a .psgi
200 file for your application.
202 - Catalyst::Uprading has been improved, and the status of old Catalyst
206 - Catalyst::Test's local_request function is now deprecated. You should just
207 use the normal request function against a local server instead.
209 5.80033 2011-07-24 16:09:00
212 - Fix Catalyst::Request so that the hostname accessor is not incorrectly
213 populated with 'localhost' if a reverse DNS lookup fails.
215 - Fix Path actions debug screen to display number of arguments
217 - Fix a regression that prevented configuring attributes for all actions using
218 ->config(actions => { '*' => \%attrs }) from working
220 - Append $\ in Catalyst::Response->print to more closely match
221 IO::Handle's behaviour.
223 - Fixed situation where a detach($action) from a forward within auto
224 was not breaking out correctly
226 - Fix the disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config setting
227 to also work in the $c->component method.
229 - Handle users setting cookies with an undef value by not trying to
230 output that cookie (rather than trying to do so and causing an exception
231 as previously happened). A warning is logged if this occurs in debug
233 - Update tests to ignore $ENV{CATALYST_HOME} where required
235 - Change repository metadata to point at git.
237 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Request::Upload
239 - Catalyst::Test: Fixes to action_ok, action_redirect and action_notfound
240 test functions to be better documented, and have better default test
243 - Update tests to ignore CATALYST_HOME env var.
245 5.89002 2011-03-02 11:30:00 (TRIAL release)
248 - Fix a couple of test failures caused by optional dependencies such as FCGI
252 - Simplified the API for getting a PSGI application code reference for a
253 Catalyst application for use in, for example, .psgi files. See
254 Catalyst::Upgrading for details.
256 5.89001 2011-03-01 15:27:00 (TRIAL release)
259 - Fixed command-line argument passing in Catalyst::Script::FastCGI.
261 - Fixed Catalyst::Engine::Stomp compatibility. Applications using
262 Catalyst::Engine::Stomp are believed to continue working without
263 any changes with the new Catalyst major version.
265 - Fixed issues auto-loading engine with older scripts.
268 - Catalyst::Engine::Wx is officially unsupported and BROKEN. If you
269 are using this engine then please get in touch with us and we'll
270 be happy to help with the changes it needs to be compatible with
271 the new major version of Catalyst.
274 - The section of Catalyst::Upgrading describing how to upgrade to version 5.90
275 of Catalyst has been much improved.
277 5.80032 2011-02-23 01:10:00
280 - Fix compatibility issue with code which was testing the value of
281 $c->res->body multiple times. Previously this would cause the value
282 to be built, and ergo cause the $c->res->has_body predicate to start
284 Having a response body is indicated by $c->res->body being defined.
286 - Fix bug with calling $upload->slurp multiple times in one request
287 not working as expected as the file handle wasn't returned to
288 the zero position. (Adam Sjøgren)
290 - Fix some weird perl 5.8 situations where $c can get squashed unexpectedly
293 - Fix chained dispatch where chains were being compared for length (number
294 of private parts in the chain) vs where they are being compared for
295 PathPart length (i.e. number of non-capturing URI elements in your path).
297 This bug meant that sometimes multiple Args or CaptureArgs (e.g. /*/*)
298 type paths would be preferred to those with fixed path elements
302 - Add MYAPP_RESTARTER and CATALYST_RESTARTER environment variables to
303 allow the restarter class to be chosen per application or generally.
305 This feature was added to enable GUI restarters (such as the soon to
306 be released CatalystX::Restarter::GTK to be enabled more easily by
307 developers without changing their application code.
309 5.80031 2011-01-31 08:13:02
312 - Update dependency on MooseX::Role::WithOverloading to ensure that
313 a version which can deal with / depends on a new Package::Stash
314 is installed. (As if some other dependency is pulled in during upgrading
315 which results in new Package::Stash, then it can leave you with a broken
316 version of MooseX::Role::WithOverloading.
318 - Fix undef warning in Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI when writing an empty
319 body (e.g. doing a redirect)
321 5.89000 2011-01-24 09:28:45 (TRIAL release)
323 This is a development release from psgi branch of Catalyst-Runtime.
327 - All of the Catalyst::Engine::* namespace is now gone. Instead we only have
328 one Catalyst::Engine class speaking the PSGI protocol natively. Everything
329 the various Catalyst::Engine:: classes did before is now supposed to happen
330 through PSGI handlers such as Plack::Handler::FCGI,
331 Plack::Handler::HTTP::Server::PSGI, Plack::Handler::Apache2, and so
332 on. However, deployment can still work the same as it did before. The
333 catalyst scripts still exist and continue to work.
335 If you find anything that either doesn't work anymore as it did before or
336 anything that could be done before with the various Catalyst::Engine::
337 classes, but can't be done anymore with the single PSGI Catalyst::Engine
338 class, please tell us *now*.
340 5.80030 2011-01-04 13:13:02
343 - Add a --proc_title option to the FCGI script to set the process
345 - Allow the response body to be set to `undef' explicitly to indicate the
346 absence of a body. It can be used to indicate that no body should be sent at
347 all and processing of views should be skipped. This is especially useful for
348 things like X-Sendfile, which now no longer require providing fake response
349 bodies to suppress view processing. In order for this to work, you will also
350 have upgrade Catalyst::Action::RenderView to at least version 0.15.
353 - Deal correctly with GLOB file handles in the response body (setting
354 the Content-Length header appropriately)
355 - Chained dispatch has been fixed to always prefer paths
356 with the minimum number of captures (rather than the
357 maximum number of actions). This means that (for example)
358 a URI path /foo/* made out of 2 actions will take preference
359 to a URI path /*/* made out of 3 actions. Please check your applications
360 if you are using chained action and please write new test to report
362 - Stop relying on bugs in the pure-perl version of Package::Stash. New
363 versions of Package::Stash load Package::Stash::XS if
364 available. Package::Stash::XS fixes some of the bugs of the pure-perl
365 version, exposing our faulty assumption and breaking things. We now work
366 with both old and new versions of Package::Stash, both with and without
367 Package::Stash::XS being installed. Older versions of Catalyst-Runtime also
368 work with both old and new versions of Package::Stash, but only if
369 Package::Stash::XS is *not* installed.
372 - Clarify that when forwarding or detaching, the end action associated
373 with the original dispatched action will be run afterwards (fallen)
375 5.80029 2010-10-03 16:39:00
378 - Add a warning when $c->view is called and cannot locate a default_view
379 or current_view. This clarifies the logging when ::RenderView gets
383 - Deal warning in with Moose >= 1.15 if you add a method called 'meta' to a
384 class which already has one by using _add_meta_method.
386 5.80028 2010-09-28 20:49:00
389 - use Class::MOP in Catalyst::Utils.
391 - Do not keep a reference to a closed over context in ctx_request, allowing
392 the caller to dispose of the request context at their leisure.
394 - Changes to be compatible with bleadperl
396 5.80027 2010-09-01 22:14:00
399 - Fix an issue with newly added test cases which depended on Catalyst::Action::RenderView
401 5.80026 2010-09-01 15:14:00
404 - Fix so that CATALYST_EXCEPTION_CLASS in MyApp is always respected by
405 not loading Catalyst::Exception in Utils.pm BEGIN, because some Scripts::*
406 load Utils before MyApp.pm
408 - Fix warnings with new Moose versions about "excludes" during role
411 - Fix warning from MooseX::Getopt regarding duplicate "help" aliases.
413 - parse_on_demand fixed when used in conjunction with debug mode.
414 A regression was introduced in 5.80022 which would cause the body
415 to always be parsed for logging at the end of the request when in
416 debug mode. This has been fixed so that if the body has not been parsed
417 by the time the request is logged, then the body is omitted.
419 - Fix show_internal_actions config setting producing warnings in debug
422 - Make Catalyst::Test::local_request() set the response base from base href
423 in the returned document so that links can be resolved correctly by
424 Test::WWW::Mechanize::Catalyst
427 - moved component name sort that happens in setup_components to
428 locate_components to allow methods to wrap around locate_components
433 - Advertise Catalyst::Plugin::SmartURI
436 5.80025 2010-07-29 01:50:00
439 - An 'action_class' method has been added to Catalyst::Controller to
440 allow controller base classes, roles or traits
441 (e.g. Catalyst::Controller::ActionRole) to more easily override
442 the default action creation.
445 - Fix the --mech and --mechanize options to the myapp_create.pl script
446 to operate correctly by fixing the options passed down into the script.
447 - Fix controllers with no method attributes (where the action definitions
448 are entirely contained in config). RT#58057
449 - Fix running as a CGI under IIS at non-root locations.
450 - Fix warning about "excludes" during role application
451 - Fix warning from MooseX::Getopt regarding duplicate "help" aliases
454 - Fix missing - in the docs when describing the --mechanize option at one
456 - Explained the common practice how to access the component's config
458 - Fixed typo in Catalyst/Script/Server.pm (RT #58474)
460 5.80024 2010-05-15 11:55:44
463 - Revert the path resolution behaviour to how it used to work before
464 Catalyst 5.80014_02, so that application paths are (by default)
465 resolved from $ENV{PATH_INFO} and $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME}. This fixes backward
466 compatibility breakage seen by a number of people since that release
467 with mod_rewrite and SSI.
470 - Add a use_request_uri_for_path config setting to optionally
471 use the (more correct) $ENV{REQUEST_URI} path resolution behaviour.
474 - Clarify the documentation for the Catalyst::Stats interface.
475 - Copious documentation about the use_request_uri_for_path feature
476 and the implications of setting this to true/false in
477 Catalyst::Engine::CGI
479 5.80023 2010-05-07 23:50:27
482 - Ensure to always cleanup temporary uploaded files in all cases, even
483 when exceptions occur during request processing, using HTTP::Body's
484 ->cleanup feature. (RT#41442)
485 - Ensure that Catalyst::Engine::HTTP's options hash is defined before
486 dereferencing it. (RT#49267)
487 - Fix regex special characters in REDIRECT_URL variable breaking
488 the request base. (2nd part of RT#24951)
489 - Fix not stripping backslashes in DispatchType::Regex::uri_for_action
492 - Setting __PACKAGE__->config(enable_catalyst_header => 1); in your MyApp.pm
493 now enables the X-Catalyst header being printed when not in debug mode.
494 - Require CGI::Simple::Cookie version 1.109 to ensure support for the
496 - Allow the myapp_test.pl script to be given a list of paths which it
497 will retrieve all of. (RT#53653)
498 - Allow parameterized roles to be applied as plugins.
499 - Allow requiring minimum versions of plugins when loading them.
502 - The Catalyst::Test::get method is documented as returning the raw
503 response bytes without any character decoding (RT#53678)
506 - Removal of $Catalyst::PRETTY_VERSION. Future releases will always have the
507 full and unmangled version number, including trailing zeroes, in
510 5.80022 2010-03-28 19:43:01
513 - Log an extra line in debug mode with the response status code,
514 the content type and content length if available.
516 Refactoring / optimizations:
517 - Display of the end of hit debug messages has been factored out into
518 log_headers, log_request, log_request_headers, log_response,
519 log_response_status_line and log_response_headers methods so that
520 plugins which customise how much information is shown on the debug
521 screen as easy to write.
522 - Make all logging of request and response state get the information from
523 $c->dump_these so that there is a unified point from which to hook
524 in parameter filtering (for example).
525 - $c->model/view/controller have become a lot faster for non-regexp names
526 by using direct hash lookup instead of looping.
527 - IP address => hostname mapping for the server is only done once and cached
528 by Catalyst::Engine::HTTP to somewhat mitigate the problem of people
529 developing on machines pointed at slow DNS servers.
532 - DispatchType::Index's uri_for_action only returns for actions registered
533 with it (prevents 'index :Path' or similar resolving to the wrong URI)
534 - Make sure to construct Upload objects properly, even if there are
535 multiple Content-Type headers (Closes RT#55976).
537 5.80021 2010-03-03 23:02:01
540 - $c->uri_for will now escape unsafe characters in captures
541 ($c->request->captures) and correctly encode utf8 charracters.
543 5.80020 2010-02-04 06:51:18
546 - Allow components to specify additional components to be set up by
547 overriding the expand_modules method. (Oliver Charles)
549 5.80019 2010-01-29 01:04:09
552 - Calls to $c->uri_for with private paths as strings (e.g.
553 $c->uri_for('controller/action', 'arg1', 'arg2') ) no longer have
554 / encoded to %2F. This is due to $c->uri_for('static', 'css/foo', $bar)
555 which should not be encoded.
556 Calls with an action object (rather than a string), or uri_for action
557 will still encode / in args and captures to %2F
559 - The above noted / => %2F encoding in uri_for_action or uri_for with
560 an action object has been fixed to not just encode the first slash in
561 any set of args/captures.
563 - nginx and lighttpd FCGI requests with URI encoded sections as the first
564 path part have been fixed to operate correctly.
566 - A source of bogus warnings in Catalyst::Component::BUILDARGS has been
570 - Improve the documentation about -Home and how Catalyst finds the home path
572 - Various minor typo fixes.
575 - Allow passing additional arguments to action constructors.
577 5.80018 2010-01-12 22:24:20
580 - Call ->canonical on URI derived from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} to get
581 paths correctly decoded. This bug was previously hidden by a bug
582 in HTTP::Request::AsCGI.
585 - Clarify that uri_for_action works on private paths, with example.
586 - Clarify documentation about debug
589 - Saying use Catalyst::Test; (without an application name or () to stop
590 the importer running is now deprecated and will issue a warning.
591 You should be saying use Catalyst::Test ();
593 5.80017 2010-01-10 02:27:29
596 - Fix docs for ->forward method when passed a class name - this should
597 be a component name (e.g. View::HTML, not a full class name, like
601 - --daemon and -d options to Catalyst::Script::FastCGI are fixed.
602 - Fix the debug dump for applications which use Catalyst::Plugin::Session
604 - Fix regression in the case where mod_rewrite is being used to rewrite
605 requests into a path below your application base introduced with the
606 %2F related fixes in 5.80014_02.
607 - Do not crash on SIGHUP if Catalyst::Engine::HTTP->run is not passed the
608 argv key in the options hash.
609 - Correctly pass the arguments to Catalyst::Script::Server through to
610 Catalyst::Engine::HTTP->run so that the server can restart itself
611 with the correct options on SIGHUP.
612 - Require new MooseX::MethodAttributes to be compatible with Moose
614 - Require new MooseX::Role::WithOverloading to be compatible with Moose
618 - Stop suppressing warnings from Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT now that most plugins
619 have been updated to not use NEXT. If you get warnings then please upgrade
620 your components or log a bug with the component author if an upgrade is
621 not available. The Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT documentation contains information
622 about how to suppress the warnings in your application if you need to.
624 5.80016 2009-12-11 23:23:33
628 - Fix slurping a file to work correctly with binary on Win32 in the
629 encoding test controller.
631 Bug fixes in the new scripts (for applications which have been upgraded):
633 - Allow --restartdirectory as an option for the Server script, for
634 backwards compatibility. (Dave Rolsky)
635 - The --host option for the server script defaulted to localhost, rather
636 than listening on all interfaces, which was the previous default. (Dave
638 - Restore -p option for pid file in the FastCGI server script.
639 - Fix the script environment variables MYAPP_PORT and MYAPP_RELOAD RT#52604
640 - Fix aliasing applications under non-root paths with mod_rewrite in
641 some apache versions where %ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} is set to the real name of
642 the script, by using $ENV{REDIRECT_URL} which contains the non-rewritten
644 - Fix usage display when myapp_create.pl is run with no arguments. RT#52630
648 - The __MOP__ hash element is suppressed from being dumped fully
649 (and instead stringified) when dumping the error screen to be
650 less packed with information of no use.
654 - Fix Pod nits (RT#52370)
656 5.80015 2009-12-02 15:13:54
658 - Fix bug in Catalyst::Engine which would cause a request parsing to end
659 prematurely in the hypothetical case where calling $engine->read returned
660 the single character '0'.
661 - Fix failing tests when combined with new HTTP::Request::AsCGI
664 - Improved documentation on read and read_chunk methods in Catalyst::Engine.
665 - Fix reversal of SCRIPT_NAME and PATH_INFO in previously correct nginx
666 FastCGI documentation introduced in _02.
668 5.80014_02 2009-12-01 00:55:23
670 - Fix reporting the wrong Content-Length if the response body is an
671 upgraded string. Strings mean the same thing whether or not they are
672 upgraded, may get upgraded even after they are encoded, and will
673 produce the same output either way, but bytes::length returns too big
674 values for upgraded strings containing characters >127
675 - Fix t/live_fork.t with bleadperl (RT#52100)
676 - Set $ENV{PATH_INFO} from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} combined with
677 $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} if possible. This is many web servers always fully
678 decode PATH_INFO including URI reserved characters. This allows us to
679 tell foo%2cbar from foo%252cbar, and fixes issues with %2F in paths
680 being incorrectly decoded, resulting in too many path parts (rather
681 than 1 path part containing a /, on some web servers (at least nginx).
683 - Require new HTTP::Request::AsCGI so that it fully decodes $ENV{PATH_INFO}
684 in non CGI contexts. (RT#50082)
686 Refactoring / cleanups:
687 - NoTabs and Pod tests moved to t/author so that they're not run
688 (and then skipped) normally.
691 - Fix Pod nits in Catalyst::Response (RT#51818)
693 5.80014_01 2009-11-22 20:01:23
696 - Filehandle now forced to binmode in CGI and FastCGI engines. This appears
697 to correct some UTF-8 issues, but may break people's code which relies
698 on the old behaviour.
700 Refactoring / cleanups:
701 - Plugins which inherit from Catalyst::Controller or Catalyst::Component
702 are deprecated and now issue warnings.
704 5.80014 2009-11-21 02:51:14
707 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.17. This in turn requires new
708 MooseX::Types to stop warnings in Moose 0.91, and correctly supports
709 role combination of roles containing attributed methods.
710 - Catalyst::Dispatcher::dispatch_types no longer throws deprecated warnings
711 as there is no recommended alternative.
712 - Improved the suggested fix warning when component resolution uses regex
713 fallback for fully qualified component names.
714 - Catalyst::Test::local_request sets ->request on the response.
715 - Log flush moved to the end of setup so that roles and plugins which
716 hook setup_finalize can log things and have them appear in application
717 startup, rather than with the first hit.
718 - Require a newer version of LWP to avoid failing tests.
719 - Stop warnings when actions are forwarded to during dispatch.
720 - Remove warnings for using Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_types as this is a
721 valid method to publicly call on the dispatcher.
722 - Args ($c->request->args) and CaptureArgs ($c->request->captrues)
723 passed to $c->uri_for with an action object ($c->action) will now
724 correctly round-trip when args or captures contain / as it is now
725 correctly uri encoded to %2F.
728 - Document no-args call to $c->uri_for.
729 - Document all top level application configuration parameters.
730 - Clarify how to fix actions in your application class (which is
731 deprecated and causes warnings).
732 - Pod fixes for ContextClosure.
733 - Fix documentation for go/visit to reference captures and arguments
734 in the correct order.
735 - Update $c->forward and $c->state documentation to address scalar
737 - Pod fix in Catalyst::Request (RT#51490)
738 - Pod fixes to refer to ::Controller:: rather than ::C:: as the latter
739 is deprecated (RT#51489)
742 - Added disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config option to
743 switch off (deprecated) regex fallback for component resolution.
744 - Added an nginx-specific behavior to the FastCGI engine to allow
745 proper PATH_INFO and SCRIPT_NAME processing for non-root applications
746 - Enable Catalyst::Utils::home() to find home within Dist::Zilla built
748 - Added the Catalyst::Exception::Interface role defining the interface
749 exception classes need to implement.
750 - Added Catalyst::Exception::Basic as a basic implementation of
751 Catalyst::Exception::Interface and made the existing exception classes
754 Refactoring / cleanups:
755 - Remove documentation for the case_sensitive setting
756 - Warning is now emitted at application startup if the case_sensitive
757 setting is turned on. This setting is not used by anyone, not
758 believed to be useful and adds unnecessary complexity to controllers
759 and the dispatcher. If you are using this setting and have good reasons
760 why it should stay then you need to be shouting, now.
761 - Writing to $c->req->body now fails as doing this never makes sense.
763 5.80013 2009-09-17 11:07:04
766 - Preserve immutable_options when temporarily making a class mutable in
767 Catalyst::ClassData as this is needed by new Class::MOP.
768 This could have potentially caused issues when using the deprecated runtime
769 plugins feature in an application with plugins which define their own new
771 - Require new Moose version and new versions of various dependencies
772 to avoid warnings from newest Moose release.
773 - Fix go / visit expecting captures and arguments in reverse order.
776 - Rework the $c->go documentation to make it more clear.
777 - Additional documentation in Catalyst::Upgrading covering more deprecation
780 Refactoring / cleanups:
781 - Action methods in the application class are deprecated and applications
782 using them will now generate a warning at startup.
783 - The -short option has been removed from catalyst.pl, stopping new
784 applications from being generated using the ::[MVC]:: naming scheme as
785 this is deprecated and generates warnings. RT#49771
787 5.80012 2009-09-09 19:09:09
790 - Fix t/optional_http-server.t test.
791 - Fix t/optional_http-server-restart.t test.
792 - Fix duplicate components being loaded at setup time, each component is
793 now loaded at most once + tests.
794 - Fix backward compatibility - hash key configured actions are stored in
795 is returned to 'actions'.
796 - Fix get_action_methods returning duplicate methods when a method is both
797 decorated with method attributes and set as an action in config.
799 Refactoring / cleanups:
800 - Reduce minimum supported perl version from 5.8.6 to 5.8.4 as there are
801 many people still running/testing this version with no known issues.
804 - Make the optional_http_server.t test an author only test which must be
805 run by authors to stop it being broken again.
806 - Fix recursion warnings in the test suites.
808 5.80011 2009-08-23 13:48:15
811 - Remove leftovers of the restarter engine. The removed code caused test
812 failures, which weren't apparent for anyone still having an old version
815 5.80010 2009-08-21 23:32:15
818 - Fix and add tests for a regression introduced by 5.80008.
819 Catalyst::Engine is now able to send out data from filehandles larger
820 than the default chunksize of 64k again.
822 5.80009 2009-08-21 22:21:08
825 - Fix and add tests for generating inner packages inside the COMPONENT
826 method, and those packages being correctly registered as components.
827 This fixes Catalyst::Model::DBIC among others.
829 5.80008 2009-08-21 17:47:30
832 - Fix replace_constructor warning to actually work if you make your
833 application class immutable without that option.
834 - Depend on Module::Pluggable 3.9 to prevent a bug wherein components
835 in inner packages might not be registered. This especially affected
837 - Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI - relax the check for versions of Microsoft
838 IIS. Provides compatibility with Windows 2008 R2 as well as
839 (hopefully) future versions.
840 - In tests which depend on the values of environment variables,
841 localise the environment, then delete only relevant environment
843 - Fix issue with Engine::HTTP not sending headers properly in some cases
845 - Make Catalyst::Engine write at least once when finalizing the response
846 body from a filehandle, even if the write is empty. This avoids fail
847 when trying to send out an empty response body from a filehandle.
848 - Catalyst::Engine::HTTP - Accept a fully qualified absolute URI in the
849 Request-URI of the Request-Line
851 Refactoring / cleanups:
852 - Deleted the Restarter engine and its Watcher code. Use the
853 new Catalyst::Restarter in a recent Catalyst::Devel instead.
854 - New unit test for Catalyst::Action 'unit_core_action.t'
855 - Bump minimum supported perl version from 5.8.1 to 5.8.6 as there are
856 known issues with 5.8.3.
857 - Debug output uses dynamic column sizing to create more readable output
858 when using a larger $ENV{COLUMNS} setting. (groditi)
861 - Added private_path method for Catalyst::Action
862 - Allow uri_for($controller_instance) which will produce a URI
863 for the controller namespace
864 - Break setup_components into two more parts: locate_components and
865 expand_component_module (rjbs)
866 - Allow Components to return anon classed from their COMPONENT method
867 correctly, and have action registration work on Controllers returned
868 as such by adding a catalyst_component_name accessor for all components
869 which returns the component instance's name to be used when building
871 - Adding X-Forwarded-Port to allow the frontend proxy to dictate the
872 frontend port (jshirley)
873 - Added Catalyst::Stats->created accessor for the time at the start of
877 - Fix POD to refer to ->config(key => $val), rather than
878 ->config->{key} = $val, as the latter form is deprecated.
879 - Clearer docs for the 'uri_for' method.
880 - Fix POD refering to CGI::Cookie. We're using CGI::Simple::Cookie.
883 5.80007 2009-06-30 23:54:34
886 - Don't mangle query parameters passed to uri_for
887 - Tests for this (Byron Young + Amir Sadoughi)
888 - Inherited controller methods can now be specified in
890 - Assigning an undef response body no longer produces warnings
891 - Fix C3 incompatibility bug caused if you use Moose in MyApp.pm and
892 add Catalyst to the right hand side of this in @ISA.
893 - Make Catalyst.pm implement the Component::ApplicationAttribute
894 interface so defining actions in MyApp.pm works again, if the
895 actions have attributes that cause $self->_application to be used
899 - Add optional second argument to uri_with which appends to existing
900 params rather than replacing them. (foo=1 becomes foo=1&foo=2 when
901 uri_with({ foo => 2 }, { mode => 'append' }) is called on a foo=1
904 5.80006 2009-06-29 23:37:47
907 - Revert change to URL encode things passed into $c->uri_for
908 Args and CaptureArgs as this causes breakage to pre-existing
910 - Remove use of Test::MockObject as it doesn't install from CPAN
911 in some environments.
912 - Remove use of dclone to deep copy configs and replace with
913 Catalyst::Utils::merge_hashes which has the same effect, of
914 ensuring child classes don't inherit their parent's config,
915 except works correctly with closures.
916 - Add Class::C3::reinitialize into Catalyst::Test to avoid weird
917 bugs in ctx_request (bokutin in RT#46459)
918 - Fix issues with _parse_PathPrefix_attr method in Catalyst::Controller
920 - Fix bugs with action sorting:
921 - Path actions sorted so that the most specific wins.
922 - Action methods named default and index fixed.
925 - Use ~ as prefix for plugins or action classes which are located in
926 MyApp::Plugin / MyApp::Action (mo)
927 - Controller methods without attributes are now considered actions if
928 they are specified in config->{action(s)} (mo)
929 - Add Catalyst::Component::ContextClosure as an easy way to create code
930 references, that close over the context, without creating leaks.
932 Refactoring / cleanups:
933 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Exception*.
934 - Turn Catalyst::Exception into an actual class and make the throw
935 method create instances of it. They can still be used as normal
936 strings, as before, as they are overloaded to stringify to their
938 - Add a rethrow method to Catalyst::Exception.
939 - Add Catalyst::Exception::Detach and ::Go, and refactor detach() and
940 go() to use them instead of magic, global strings.
942 - Clean up getting metaclass instance and making app class immutable
943 again in Catalyst::Test
945 5.80005 2009-06-06 14:40:00
948 - Arguments ($c->req->args) in Chained dispatch are now automatically
949 URL decoded to be consistent with Local/Path dispatch
952 - Clarify correct techniques for Moose controllers (domm)
955 - Further change pushing 'env' attribute down into Catalyst::Engine
956 to make $c->engine->env work in all cases (kmx)
957 - Also fix $c->engine->env in Catalyst::Test tests (kmx)
959 - Fix Catalyst failing to start if any plugin changed $_ whilst
962 - Be stricter about arguments to Args attributes for Chained actions,
963 so that they blow up on load instead of causing undefined behavior
966 - Prefer Path actions with a smaller (or set) number of Args (caelum)
967 Bug reported here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/931653/catalyst-action-that-matches-a-single-file-in-the-root-directory/933181#933181
971 - Add $c->req->remote_user to disambiguate from $c->req->user (dwc)
972 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.12 so that action methods
973 (with attributes) can be used in / composed from Moose roles.
974 - Allow the generation of cookies with the HTTPOnly flag set
975 in Catalyst::Engine (kmx)
977 5.80004 2009-05-18 17:03:23
978 - Rename the actions attribute in Catalyt::Controller to
979 _controller_actions to avoid name clashes with application
980 controller naming. (random)
981 - Test for using Moose in components which have a non-Moose base class
982 Fixed by 349cda in Moose 0.78
983 - Fix deprecation message for Catalyst::Dispatcher to refer
984 to the class actually calling the deprecated method. RT#45741
985 - Clarify limitations of $request->base and $request->secure.
987 - Add 'use Catalyst' to documentation for a Moose MyApp class as
989 - Fix so that / (and other special characters) are URL encoded when
990 passed into $c->uri_for as Args/CaptureArgs
991 - Fix development server so that $c->engine->env returns the correct
993 - Require Moose 0.78 to fix metaclass incompatibility issues
994 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.10 and use
995 Moose::Meta::Class->initialize rather than Moose->init_meta to fix
996 bugs related to having a 'meta' method in your controller
997 - Fix cases where your application failing to compile could cause perl
998 to report 'Unknown Error'
999 - Support adding Moose::Roles to the plugin list. These are applied to
1000 MyApp after plugins have been pushed onto @ISA
1001 - Fix calling $c->req->parameters as the first thing you do when
1002 parse_on_demand is on
1004 5.80003 2009-04-29 16:23:53
1005 - Various POD tweaks. (hdp, dandv)
1006 - Fix formatting error in the regex fallback warning.
1007 - Convert the dispatcher's and restarter engine's BUILD method to
1008 attribute builders to not override the BUILD method from
1009 MooseX::Emulate::Class::Accessor::Fast.
1010 - Fix classes without metaclasses restarting, when not using
1011 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange
1012 - Fix the unattached chain debug table for endpoints with no
1014 - Turn off test aggregation by default. Only aggregate if the
1015 AGGREGATE_TESTS environment variable is set and a recent
1016 Test::Aggregate is available.
1017 - Bump to MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.09, to gain the
1018 get_nearest_methods_with_attributes method allowing methods without
1019 attributes in a subclass to override those with attributes in a
1020 superclass. This fixes CatalystX::CRUD's method of overriding /
1021 disabling functionality from base controllers.
1022 - Bump HTTP::Request::AsCGI dependency to avoid broken version

1029 + tests from RT#39369 (norbi)
1030 - Partial rewrite and reoganisation of the C3 docs in
1031 Catalyst::Upgrading based on feedback from kiffin
1032 - If you make your application class immutable and turn off
1033 constructor inlining, Catalyst will die and tell you pass
1034 the (replace_constructor => 1) argument to
1035 make_immutable. (Dave Rolsky)
1037 5.80002 2009-04-22 01:28:36
1038 - Fix CATALYST_DEBUG and MYAPP_DEBUG environment variables
1039 turning debuging on if defined, rather than if set.
1040 They now force debugging on or off, taking precedence over
1041 configuration in your application.
1043 - pass replace_constructor to the immutable call to ensure
1044 applications get a Moose constructor rather than a C::A one
1045 - Fix issues with restarting the application class due to C3 failures
1047 - Work around issues in Moose with initialization order of multiple
1048 levels of non-Moose classes inheriting from a Moose class
1050 - Add backwards compatibility method for Catalyst::Log->body, which
1051 has been made private
1052 - Fix so that calling $c->req->parameters(undef) does not flatten
1053 the request parameters with undef + test
1054 - Fix so that width of table of unattached actions for debugging
1055 ::DispatchType::Chained varies according to your terminal width
1057 - Fix warning message about linearized @ISA in Catalyst::Component
1059 - Require MX::MethodAttributes 0.06 to avoid issues with saying
1060 use base 'Catalyst::Controller'; use Moose; losing actions
1061 - Fix all of's typos in ::Upgrading and ::Delta (hobbs)
1063 5.80001 2009-04-18 22:18
1064 - Don't inline the constructor for Catalyst::Log to avoid a
1065 warning on recent Moose versions.
1066 - Add delta documentation
1067 - Clean up recursion errors
1068 - Extra cross links in dispatch types POD (Ian Wells)
1069 - Test uri_with clears query params when they are set to undef
1071 - Complain about old Catalyst::Devel versions which generated
1072 ->setup(qw/-Debug... etc. as this is not recommended
1074 5.8000_07 2009-04-12 13:37
1075 - Add the Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_type method (ash)
1076 - Throw an exception rather than loading an app if an action
1077 tries to chain to itself
1079 - Change the $c->visit and $c->go methods to optionally take
1080 CaptureArgs, making them useful to call ActionChains with
1081 - Tests for this (radek)
1082 - Fix _invoke_as_component method to find the proper action instance
1083 for dispatchable actions so that ->visit or ->going to ActionChains
1084 with qw/Class::Name method_name/ works correctly
1085 - Tests for this (radek)
1086 - Added Catalyst::Test::ctx_request to be able to inspect
1087 the context object after a request is made (Jos Boumans)
1088 - debug() POD rewrite (jhannah)
1089 - Change the warning when you have conflicting components to
1091 - Move NEXT use and testing deprecated features out to its own
1092 test application so that the main TestApp isn't polluted with
1094 - Add a warning for the old ::[MVC]:: style naming scheme
1096 - Kill Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT warnings for the Catalyst:: namespace
1097 in production versions
1098 - Tidy up Catalyst::ClassData to ensure that all components get
1099 the correct metaclass
1100 - Make MyApp.pm restartable by unsetting setup_finished in
1101 the restarter process
1102 - Non-naive implementation of making mutable on restart using
1103 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange if installed
1105 - Naive implementation of making all components mutable in the
1106 forked restart watcher process so native Moose apps using
1107 immutable restart correctly.
1109 - Bump Moose dependency to 0.70 so that we avoid nasty surprises
1110 with is_class_loaded and perl 5.80 when you Moosify MyApp.pm
1111 - Clarify that request arguments aren't unescaped automatically
1112 (Simon Bertrang) (Closes RT#41153)
1113 - Don't require C3 for the MRO test
1114 - Bump MX::Emulate::CAF prereq to support list assignment

1119 - Add $res->code as alias for $res->status
1120 - Make Catalyst::ClassData compatible with the latest Class::MOP::Class
1121 changes. Also depend on the latest Class::MOP.
1122 - Add $c->uri_for_action method.
1123 - Don't stringify the meta method. Use its name instead.
1124 - Use MooseX::MethodAttributes::Inheritable to contain action
1125 attributes. This means that attributes are now represented in the MOP,
1126 allowing method modifiers on actions to work as expected.
1127 - Provide a reasonable API in Catalyst::Controller for working with
1128 and registering actions, allowing a controller sub-class to replace
1129 subroutine attributes for action declerations with an alternate
1131 - Instantiate correct sub-class of Moose::Meta::Class for non-Moose
1132 components where Catalyst forces the creation of a metaclass instance.
1133 This is more correct, and avoids metaclass incompatibility in complex
1136 - Use of deprecated Catalyst::Base now warns.
1137 - Add uri_with tests
1139 5.8000_06 2009-02-04 21:00

1151 after trying to create a listening socket (Closes RT#41828)
1152 - Don't ignore SIGCHLD while handling requests with the dev server
1155 5.8000_05 2008-29-01 00:00

1163 - Handle leading CRLF in HTTP requests sometimes sent by IE6 in
1164 keep-alive requests.
1165 - Fixes for FastCGI with IIS 6.0 (janus)
1166 - Passing request method exported by Catalyst::Test an extra
1167 parameter used to be ignored, but started breaking if the parameter
1168 was not a hash in 5.8000_04. Extra parameter is now ignored if
1170 - Fix request argumentss getting corrupted if you override the
1171 dispatcher and call an action which detaches (for
1172 Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL)
1173 - Fix calling use Catalyst::Test 'MyApp' 'foo' which used to work,
1174 but stopped as the 2nd parameter can be an options hash now
1175 - Bump Moose dependency to fix make_immutable bug
1176 - Use compile time extends in Catalyst::Controller
1177 - Make Catalyst::Request::uploads attribute non-lazy, to fix
1178 test for Catalyst-Engine-Apache
1179 - Bump version of MooseX::Emulate::Class::Accessor::Fast
1180 - Stop using MooseX::Adopt::Class::Accessor::Fast by default, to stop
1181 breaking other packages which use Class::Accessor::Fast
1182 - Remove unused action_container_class attribute from
1183 Catalyst::Dispatcher
1184 - Replace {_body} instance access with calls to _body accessors
1185 - Add backwards compatibility alias methods for private attributes on
1186 Catalyst::Dispatcher which used to be public. Needed by
1187 Catalyst::Plugin::Server and Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL
1188 - Fix return value of $c->req->body, which delegates to the body
1189 method on the requests HTTP::Body instance
1191 - Fix calling $c->req->body from inside an overridden prepare_action
1192 method in a plugin, as used by Catalyst::Plugin::Server
1194 - Fix assignment to Catalyst::Dispatcher's preload_dispatch_types and
1195 postload_dispatch_types attributes - assigning a list should later
1196 return a listref. Fixes Catalyst::Plugin::Server.
1198 - Change streaming test to serve itself rather than 01use.t, making
1199 test sync for engines easier
1200 - Refactor capturing of $app from Catalyst::Controller into
1201 Catalyst::Component::ApplicationAttribute for easier reuse in other
1203 - Make the test suites YAML dependency optional
1204 - Make debug output show class name for the engine and dispatcher
1205 rather than the stringified ref.
1206 - Make MyApp immutable at the end of the scope after the setup
1207 method is called, fixing issues with plugins which have their
1208 own new methods by inlining a constructor on MyApp
1209 - Test for this and method modifiers in MyApp

1343 - Refactored component resolution (component(), models(), model(), et al). We now
1344 throw warnings for two reasons:
1345 1) model() or view() was called with no arguments, and two results are returned
1346 -- set default_(model|view), current_(model|view) or current_(model|view)_instance
1348 2) you call a component resolution method with a string, and it resorts to a regexp
1349 fallback wherein a result is returned -- if you really want to search, call the
1350 method with a regex as the argument
