1 # This file documents the revision history for Perl extension Catalyst.
4 - Fix docs for ->forward method when passed a class name - this should
5 be a component name (e.g. View::HTML, not a full class name, like
9 - --daemon and -d options to Catalyst::Script::FastCGI are fixed.
10 - Fix the debug dump for applications which use Catalyst::Plugin::Session
12 - Fix regression in the case where mod_rewrite is being used to rewrite
13 requests into a path below your application base introduced with the
14 %2F related fixes in 5.80014_02.
17 - Stop suppressing warnings from Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT now that most plugins
18 have been updated to not use NEXT. If you get warnings then please upgrade
19 your components or log a bug with the component author if an upgrade is
20 not available. The Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT documentation contains information
21 about how to suppress the warnings in your application if you need to.
23 5.80016 2009-12-11 23:23:33
27 - Fix slurping a file to work correctly with binary on Win32 in the
28 encoding test controller.
30 Bug fixes in the new scripts (for applications which have been upgraded):
32 - Allow --restartdirectory as an option for the Server script, for
33 backwards compatibility. (Dave Rolsky)
34 - The --host option for the server script defaulted to localhost, rather
35 than listening on all interfaces, which was the previous default. (Dave
37 - Restore -p option for pid file in the FastCGI server script.
38 - Fix the script environment variables MYAPP_PORT and MYAPP_RELOAD RT#52604
39 - Fix aliasing applications under non-root paths with mod_rewrite in
40 some apache versions where %ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} is set to the real name of
41 the script, by using $ENV{REDIRECT_URL} which contains the non-rewritten
43 - Fix usage display when myapp_create.pl is run with no arguments. RT#52630
47 - The __MOP__ hash element is suppressed from being dumped fully
48 (and instead stringified) when dumping the error screen to be
49 less packed with information of no use.
53 - Fix Pod nits (RT#52370)
55 5.80015 2009-12-02 15:13:54
57 - Fix bug in Catalyst::Engine which would cause a request parsing to end
58 prematurely in the hypothetical case where calling $engine->read returned
59 the single character '0'.
60 - Fix failing tests when combined with new HTTP::Request::AsCGI
63 - Improved documentation on read and read_chunk methods in Catalyst::Engine.
64 - Fix reversal of SCRIPT_NAME and PATH_INFO in previously correct nginx
65 FastCGI documentation introduced in _02.
67 5.80014_02 2009-12-01 00:55:23
69 - Fix reporting the wrong Content-Length if the response body is an
70 upgraded string. Strings mean the same thing whether or not they are
71 upgraded, may get upgraded even after they are encoded, and will
72 produce the same output either way, but bytes::length returns too big
73 values for upgraded strings containing characters >127
74 - Fix t/live_fork.t with bleadperl (RT#52100)
75 - Set $ENV{PATH_INFO} from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} combined with
76 $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} if possible. This is many web servers always fully
77 decode PATH_INFO including URI reserved characters. This allows us to
78 tell foo%2cbar from foo%252cbar, and fixes issues with %2F in paths
79 being incorrectly decoded, resulting in too many path parts (rather
80 than 1 path part containing a /, on some web servers (at least nginx).
82 - Require new HTTP::Request::AsCGI so that it fully decodes $ENV{PATH_INFO}
83 in non CGI contexts. (RT#50082)
85 Refactoring / cleanups:
86 - NoTabs and Pod tests moved to t/author so that they're not run
87 (and then skipped) normally.
90 - Fix Pod nits in Catalyst::Response (RT#51818)
92 5.80014_01 2009-11-22 20:01:23
95 - Filehandle now forced to binmode in CGI and FastCGI engines. This appears
96 to correct some UTF-8 issues, but may break people's code which relies
99 Refactoring / cleanups:
100 - Plugins which inherit from Catalyst::Controller or Catalyst::Component
101 are deprecated and now issue warnings.
103 5.80014 2009-11-21 02:51:14
106 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.17. This in turn requires new
107 MooseX::Types to stop warnings in Moose 0.91, and correctly supports
108 role combination of roles containing attributed methods.
109 - Catalyst::Dispatcher::dispatch_types no longer throws deprecated warnings
110 as there is no recommended alternative.
111 - Improved the suggested fix warning when component resolution uses regex
112 fallback for fully qualified component names.
113 - Catalyst::Test::local_request sets ->request on the response.
114 - Log flush moved to the end of setup so that roles and plugins which
115 hook setup_finalize can log things and have them appear in application
116 startup, rather than with the first hit.
117 - Require a newer version of LWP to avoid failing tests.
118 - Stop warnings when actions are forwarded to during dispatch.
119 - Remove warnings for using Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_types as this is a
120 valid method to publicly call on the dispatcher.
121 - Args ($c->request->args) and CaptureArgs ($c->request->captrues)
122 passed to $c->uri_for with an action object ($c->action) will now
123 correctly round-trip when args or captures contain / as it is now
124 correctly uri encoded to %2F.
127 - Document no-args call to $c->uri_for.
128 - Document all top level application configuration parameters.
129 - Clarify how to fix actions in your application class (which is
130 deprecated and causes warnings).
131 - Pod fixes for ContextClosure.
132 - Fix documentation for go/visit to reference captures and arguments
133 in the correct order.
134 - Update $c->forward and $c->state documentation to address scalar
136 - Pod fix in Catalyst::Request (RT#51490)
137 - Pod fixes to refer to ::Controller:: rather than ::C:: as the latter
138 is deprecated (RT#51489)
141 - Added disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config option to
142 switch off (deprecated) regex fallback for component resolution.
143 - Added an nginx-specific behavior to the FastCGI engine to allow
144 proper PATH_INFO and SCRIPT_NAME processing for non-root applications
145 - Enable Catalyst::Utils::home() to find home within Dist::Zilla built
147 - Added the Catalyst::Exception::Interface role defining the interface
148 exception classes need to implement.
149 - Added Catalyst::Exception::Basic as a basic implementation of
150 Catalyst::Exception::Interface and made the existing exception classes
153 Refactoring / cleanups:
154 - Remove documentation for the case_sensitive setting
155 - Warning is now emitted at application startup if the case_sensitive
156 setting is turned on. This setting is not used by anyone, not
157 believed to be useful and adds unnecessary complexity to controllers
158 and the dispatcher. If you are using this setting and have good reasons
159 why it should stay then you need to be shouting, now.
160 - Writing to $c->req->body now fails as doing this never makes sense.
162 5.80013 2009-09-17 11:07:04
165 - Preserve immutable_options when temporarily making a class mutable in
166 Catalyst::ClassData as this is needed by new Class::MOP.
167 This could have potentially caused issues when using the deprecated runtime
168 plugins feature in an application with plugins which define their own new
170 - Require new Moose version and new versions of various dependencies
171 to avoid warnings from newest Moose release.
172 - Fix go / visit expecting captures and arguments in reverse order.
175 - Rework the $c->go documentation to make it more clear.
176 - Additional documentation in Catalyst::Upgrading covering more deprecation
179 Refactoring / cleanups:
180 - Action methods in the application class are deprecated and applications
181 using them will now generate a warning at startup.
182 - The -short option has been removed from catalyst.pl, stopping new
183 applications from being generated using the ::[MVC]:: naming scheme as
184 this is deprecated and generates warnings. RT#49771
186 5.80012 2009-09-09 19:09:09
189 - Fix t/optional_http-server.t test.
190 - Fix t/optional_http-server-restart.t test.
191 - Fix duplicate components being loaded at setup time, each component is
192 now loaded at most once + tests.
193 - Fix backward compatibility - hash key configured actions are stored in
194 is returned to 'actions'.
195 - Fix get_action_methods returning duplicate methods when a method is both
196 decorated with method attributes and set as an action in config.
198 Refactoring / cleanups:
199 - Reduce minimum supported perl version from 5.8.6 to 5.8.4 as there are
200 many people still running/testing this version with no known issues.
203 - Make the optional_http_server.t test an author only test which must be
204 run by authors to stop it being broken again.
205 - Fix recursion warnings in the test suites.
207 5.80011 2009-08-23 13:48:15
210 - Remove leftovers of the restarter engine. The removed code caused test
211 failures, which weren't apparent for anyone still having an old version
214 5.80010 2009-08-21 23:32:15
217 - Fix and add tests for a regression introduced by 5.80008.
218 Catalyst::Engine is now able to send out data from filehandles larger
219 than the default chunksize of 64k again.
221 5.80009 2009-08-21 22:21:08
224 - Fix and add tests for generating inner packages inside the COMPONENT
225 method, and those packages being correctly registered as components.
226 This fixes Catalyst::Model::DBIC among others.
228 5.80008 2009-08-21 17:47:30
231 - Fix replace_constructor warning to actually work if you make your
232 application class immutable without that option.
233 - Depend on Module::Pluggable 3.9 to prevent a bug wherein components
234 in inner packages might not be registered. This especially affected
236 - Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI - relax the check for versions of Microsoft
237 IIS. Provides compatibility with Windows 2008 R2 as well as
238 (hopefully) future versions.
239 - In tests which depend on the values of environment variables,
240 localise the environment, then delete only relevant environment
242 - Fix issue with Engine::HTTP not sending headers properly in some cases
244 - Make Catalyst::Engine write at least once when finalizing the response
245 body from a filehandle, even if the write is empty. This avoids fail
246 when trying to send out an empty response body from a filehandle.
247 - Catalyst::Engine::HTTP - Accept a fully qualified absolute URI in the
248 Request-URI of the Request-Line
250 Refactoring / cleanups:
251 - Deleted the Restarter engine and its Watcher code. Use the
252 new Catalyst::Restarter in a recent Catalyst::Devel instead.
253 - New unit test for Catalyst::Action 'unit_core_action.t'
254 - Bump minimum supported perl version from 5.8.1 to 5.8.6 as there are
255 known issues with 5.8.3.
256 - Debug output uses dynamic column sizing to create more readable output
257 when using a larger $ENV{COLUMNS} setting. (groditi)
260 - Added private_path method for Catalyst::Action
261 - Allow uri_for($controller_instance) which will produce a URI
262 for the controller namespace
263 - Break setup_components into two more parts: locate_components and
264 expand_component_module (rjbs)
265 - Allow Components to return anon classed from their COMPONENT method
266 correctly, and have action registration work on Controllers returned
267 as such by adding a catalyst_component_name accessor for all components
268 which returns the component instance's name to be used when building
270 - Adding X-Forwarded-Port to allow the frontend proxy to dictate the
271 frontend port (jshirley)
272 - Added Catalyst::Stats->created accessor for the time at the start of
276 - Fix POD to refer to ->config(key => $val), rather than
277 ->config->{key} = $val, as the latter form is deprecated.
278 - Clearer docs for the 'uri_for' method.
279 - Fix POD refering to CGI::Cookie. We're using CGI::Simple::Cookie.
282 5.80007 2009-06-30 23:54:34
285 - Don't mangle query parameters passed to uri_for
286 - Tests for this (Byron Young + Amir Sadoughi)
287 - Inherited controller methods can now be specified in
289 - Assigning an undef response body no longer produces warnings
290 - Fix C3 incompatibility bug caused if you use Moose in MyApp.pm and
291 add Catalyst to the right hand side of this in @ISA.
292 - Make Catalyst.pm implement the Component::ApplicationAttribute
293 interface so defining actions in MyApp.pm works again, if the
294 actions have attributes that cause $self->_application to be used
298 - Add optional second argument to uri_with which appends to existing
299 params rather than replacing them. (foo=1 becomes foo=1&foo=2 when
300 uri_with({ foo => 2 }, { mode => 'append' }) is called on a foo=1
303 5.80006 2009-06-29 23:37:47
306 - Revert change to URL encode things passed into $c->uri_for
307 Args and CaptureArgs as this causes breakage to pre-existing
309 - Remove use of Test::MockObject as it doesn't install from CPAN
310 in some environments.
311 - Remove use of dclone to deep copy configs and replace with
312 Catalyst::Utils::merge_hashes which has the same effect, of
313 ensuring child classes don't inherit their parent's config,
314 except works correctly with closures.
315 - Add Class::C3::reinitialize into Catalyst::Test to avoid weird
316 bugs in ctx_request (bokutin in RT#46459)
317 - Fix issues with _parse_PathPrefix_attr method in Catalyst::Controller
319 - Fix bugs with action sorting:
320 - Path actions sorted so that the most specific wins.
321 - Action methods named default and index fixed.
324 - Use ~ as prefix for plugins or action classes which are located in
325 MyApp::Plugin / MyApp::Action (mo)
326 - Controller methods without attributes are now considered actions if
327 they are specified in config->{action(s)} (mo)
328 - Add Catalyst::Component::ContextClosure as an easy way to create code
329 references, that close over the context, without creating leaks.
331 Refactoring / cleanups:
332 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Exception*.
333 - Turn Catalyst::Exception into an actual class and make the throw
334 method create instances of it. They can still be used as normal
335 strings, as before, as they are overloaded to stringify to their
337 - Add a rethrow method to Catalyst::Exception.
338 - Add Catalyst::Exception::Detach and ::Go, and refactor detach() and
339 go() to use them instead of magic, global strings.
341 - Clean up getting metaclass instance and making app class immutable
342 again in Catalyst::Test
344 5.80005 2009-06-06 14:40:00
347 - Arguments ($c->req->args) in Chained dispatch are now automatically
348 URL decoded to be consistent with Local/Path dispatch
351 - Clarify correct techniques for Moose controllers (domm)
354 - Further change pushing 'env' attribute down into Catalyst::Engine
355 to make $c->engine->env work in all cases (kmx)
356 - Also fix $c->engine->env in Catalyst::Test tests (kmx)
358 - Fix Catalyst failing to start if any plugin changed $_ whilst
361 - Be stricter about arguments to Args attributes for Chained actions,
362 so that they blow up on load instead of causing undefined behavior
365 - Prefer Path actions with a smaller (or set) number of Args (caelum)
366 Bug reported here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/931653/catalyst-action-that-matches-a-single-file-in-the-root-directory/933181#933181
370 - Add $c->req->remote_user to disambiguate from $c->req->user (dwc)
371 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.12 so that action methods
372 (with attributes) can be used in / composed from Moose roles.
373 - Allow the generation of cookies with the HTTPOnly flag set
374 in Catalyst::Engine (kmx)
376 5.80004 2009-05-18 17:03:23
377 - Rename the actions attribute in Catalyt::Controller to
378 _controller_actions to avoid name clashes with application
379 controller naming. (random)
380 - Test for using Moose in components which have a non-Moose base class
381 Fixed by 349cda in Moose 0.78
382 - Fix deprecation message for Catalyst::Dispatcher to refer
383 to the class actually calling the deprecated method. RT#45741
384 - Clarify limitations of $request->base and $request->secure.
386 - Add 'use Catalyst' to documentation for a Moose MyApp class as
388 - Fix so that / (and other special characters) are URL encoded when
389 passed into $c->uri_for as Args/CaptureArgs
390 - Fix development server so that $c->engine->env returns the correct
392 - Require Moose 0.78 to fix metaclass incompatibility issues
393 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.10 and use
394 Moose::Meta::Class->initialize rather than Moose->init_meta to fix
395 bugs related to having a 'meta' method in your controller
396 - Fix cases where your application failing to compile could cause perl
397 to report 'Unknown Error'
398 - Support adding Moose::Roles to the plugin list. These are applied to
399 MyApp after plugins have been pushed onto @ISA
400 - Fix calling $c->req->parameters as the first thing you do when
401 parse_on_demand is on
403 5.80003 2009-04-29 16:23:53
404 - Various POD tweaks. (hdp, dandv)
405 - Fix formatting error in the regex fallback warning.
406 - Convert the dispatcher's and restarter engine's BUILD method to
407 attribute builders to not override the BUILD method from
408 MooseX::Emulate::Class::Accessor::Fast.
409 - Fix classes without metaclasses restarting, when not using
410 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange
411 - Fix the unattached chain debug table for endpoints with no
413 - Turn of test aggregation by default. Only aggregate if the
414 AGGREGATE_TESTS environment variable is set and a recent
415 Test::Aggregate is available.
416 - Bump to MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.09, to gain the
417 get_nearest_methods_with_attributes method allowing methods without
418 attributes in a subclass to override those with attributes in a
419 superclass. This fixes CatalystX::CRUD's method of overriding /
420 disabling functionality from base controllers.
421 - Bump HTTP::Request::AsCGI dependency to avoid broken version
422 - Bump Moose dependency to latest version to fix metaclass
423 incompatibility issues in some cases.

427 - Fixes for uri_for_action when using Catalyst::DispatchType::Regex
428 + tests from RT#39369 (norbi)
429 - Partial rewrite and reoganisation of the C3 docs in
430 Catalyst::Upgrading based on feedback from kiffin
431 - If you make your application class immutable and turn off
432 constructor inlining, Catalyst will die and tell you pass
433 the (replace_constructor => 1) argument to
434 make_immutable. (Dave Rolsky)
436 5.80002 2009-04-22 01:28:36
437 - Fix CATALYST_DEBUG and MYAPP_DEBUG environment variables
438 turning debuging on if defined, rather than if set.
439 They now force debugging on or off, taking precedence over
440 configuration in your application.
442 - pass replace_constructor to the immutable call to ensure
443 applications get a Moose constructor rather than a C::A one
444 - Fix issues with restarting the application class due to C3 failures
446 - Work around issues in Moose with initialization order of multiple
447 levels of non-Moose classes inheriting from a Moose class
449 - Add backwards compatibility method for Catalyst::Log->body, which
450 has been made private
451 - Fix so that calling $c->req->parameters(undef) does not flatten
452 the request parameters with undef + test
453 - Fix so that width of table of unattached actions for debugging
454 ::DispatchType::Chained varies according to your terminal width
456 - Fix warning message about linearized @ISA in Catalyst::Component
458 - Require MX::MethodAttributes 0.06 to avoid issues with saying
459 use base 'Catalyst::Controller'; use Moose; losing actions
460 - Fix all of's typos in ::Upgrading and ::Delta (hobbs)
462 5.80001 2009-04-18 22:18
463 - Don't inline the constructor for Catalyst::Log to avoid a
464 warning on recent Moose versions.
465 - Add delta documentation
466 - Clean up recursion errors
467 - Extra cross links in dispatch types POD (Ian Wells)
468 - Test uri_with clears query params when they are set to undef
470 - Complain about old Catalyst::Devel versions which generated
471 ->setup(qw/-Debug... etc. as this is not recommended
473 5.8000_07 2009-04-12 13:37
474 - Add the Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_type method (ash)
475 - Throw an exception rather than loading an app if an action
476 tries to chain to itself
478 - Change the $c->visit and $c->go methods to optionally take
479 CaptureArgs, making them useful to call ActionChains with
480 - Tests for this (radek)
481 - Fix _invoke_as_component method to find the proper action instance
482 for dispatchable actions so that ->visit or ->going to ActionChains
483 with qw/Class::Name method_name/ works correctly
484 - Tests for this (radek)
485 - Added Catalyst::Test::ctx_request to be able to inspect
486 the context object after a request is made (Jos Boumans)
487 - debug() POD rewrite (jhannah)
488 - Change the warning when you have conflicting components to
490 - Move NEXT use and testing deprecated features out to its own
491 test application so that the main TestApp isn't polluted with
493 - Add a warning for the old ::[MVC]:: style naming scheme
495 - Kill Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT warnings for the Catalyst:: namespace
496 in production versions
497 - Tidy up Catalyst::ClassData to ensure that all components get
498 the correct metaclass
499 - Make MyApp.pm restartable by unsetting setup_finished in
500 the restarter process
501 - Non-naive implementation of making mutable on restart using
502 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange if installed
504 - Naive implementation of making all components mutable in the
505 forked restart watcher process so native Moose apps using
506 immutable restart correctly.
508 - Bump Moose dependency to 0.70 so that we avoid nasty surprises
509 with is_class_loaded and perl 5.80 when you Moosify MyApp.pm
510 - Clarify that request arguments aren't unescaped automatically
511 (Simon Bertrang) (Closes RT#41153)
512 - Don't require C3 for the MRO test
513 - Bump MX::Emulate::CAF prereq to support list assignment
514 - Remove useless column in chained action debug table.
515 - namespace::clean related cleanups
516 - Import related cleanups and consistency fixes
517 - Fix test suite TestApp /dump/env action
518 - Add $res->code as alias for $res->status
519 - Make Catalyst::ClassData compatible with the latest Class::MOP::Class
520 changes. Also depend on the latest Class::MOP.
521 - Add $c->uri_for_action method.
522 - Don't stringify the meta method. Use its name instead.
523 - Use MooseX::MethodAttributes::Inheritable to contain action
524 attributes. This means that attributes are now represented in the MOP,
525 allowing method modifiers on actions to work as expected.
526 - Provide a reasonable API in Catalyst::Controller for working with
527 and registering actions, allowing a controller sub-class to replace
528 subroutine attributes for action declerations with an alternate
530 - Instantiate correct sub-class of Moose::Meta::Class for non-Moose
531 components where Catalyst forces the creation of a metaclass instance.
532 This is more correct, and avoids metaclass incompatibility in complex
535 - Use of deprecated Catalyst::Base now warns.
538 5.8000_06 2009-02-04 21:00
539 - Disallow writing to config after setup

549 - Use the way documented by IO::Socket::INET to get the error message
550 after trying to create a listening socket (Closes RT#41828)
551 - Don't ignore SIGCHLD while handling requests with the dev server
554 5.8000_05 2008-29-01 00:00

561 resolution uses regex fallback. (jhannah)
562 - Handle leading CRLF in HTTP requests sometimes sent by IE6 in
564 - Fixes for FastCGI with IIS 6.0 (janus)
565 - Passing request method exported by Catalyst::Test an extra
566 parameter used to be ignored, but started breaking if the parameter
567 was not a hash in 5.8000_04. Extra parameter is now ignored if
569 - Fix request argumentss getting corrupted if you override the
570 dispatcher and call an action which detaches (for
571 Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL)
572 - Fix calling use Catalyst::Test 'MyApp' 'foo' which used to work,
573 but stopped as the 2nd parameter can be an options hash now
574 - Bump Moose dependency to fix make_immutable bug
