1 # This file documents the revision history for Perl extension Catalyst.
4 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.17. This in turn requires new
5 MooseX::Types to stop warnings in Moose 0.91, and correctly supports
6 role combination of roles containing attributed methods.
7 - Catalyst::Dispatcher::dispatch_types no longer throws deprecated warnings
8 as there is no recommended alternative.
9 - Improved the suggested fix warning when component resolution uses regex
10 fallback for fully qualified component names.
11 - Catalyst::Test::local_request sets ->request on the response.
12 - Require HTTP::Request 5.814 and HTTP::Response 5.813 from LWP 5.814
14 - Log flush moved to the end of setup so that roles and plugins which
15 hook setup_finalize can log things and have them appear in application
16 startup, rather than with the first hit.
17 - Require a newer version of LWP to avoid failing tests.
18 - Stop warnings when actions are forwarded to during dispatch.
19 - Remove warnings for using Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_types as this is a
20 valid method to publicly call on the dispatcher.
23 - Document no-args call to $c->uri_for.
24 - Document all top level application configuration parameters.
25 - Clarify how to fix actions in your application class (which is
26 deprecated and causes warnings).
27 - Pod fixes for ContextClosure.
28 - Fix documentation for go/visit to reference captures and arguments
30 - Update $c->forward and $c->state documentation to address scalar
34 - Added disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config option to
35 switch off (deprecated) regex fallback for component resolution.
36 - Added an nginx-specific behavior to the FastCGI engine to allow
37 proper PATH_INFO and SCRIPT_NAME processing for non-root applications
38 - Enable Catalyst::Utils::home() to find home within Dist::Zilla built
40 - Enable Catalyst::Utils::home() to find home within Dist::Zilla built
43 Refactoring / cleanups:
44 - Remove documentation for the case_sensitive setting
45 - Warning is now emitted at application startup if the case_sensitive
46 setting is turned on. This setting is not used by anyone, not
47 believed to be useful and adds unnecessary complexity to controllers
48 and the dispatcher. If you are using this setting and have good reasons
49 why it should stay then you need to be shouting, now.
50 - Writing to $c->req->body now fails as doing this never makes sense.
52 5.80013 2009-09-17 11:07:04
55 - Preserve immutable_options when temporarily making a class mutable in
56 Catalyst::ClassData as this is needed by new Class::MOP.
57 This could have potentially caused issues when using the deprecated runtime
58 plugins feature in an application with plugins which define their own new
60 - Require new Moose version and new versions of various dependencies
61 to avoid warnings from newest Moose release.
62 - Fix go / visit expecting captures and arguments in reverse order.
65 - Rework the $c->go documentation to make it more clear.
66 - Additional documentation in Catalyst::Upgrading covering more deprecation
69 Refactoring / cleanups:
70 - Action methods in the application class are deprecated and applications
71 using them will now generate a warning at startup.
72 - The -short option has been removed from catalyst.pl, stopping new
73 applications from being generated using the ::[MVC]:: naming scheme as
74 this is deprecated and generates warnings. RT#49771
76 5.80012 2009-09-09 19:09:09
79 - Fix t/optional_http-server.t test.
80 - Fix t/optional_http-server-restart.t test.
81 - Fix duplicate components being loaded at setup time, each component is
82 now loaded at most once + tests.
83 - Fix backward compatibility - hash key configured actions are stored in
84 is returned to 'actions'.
85 - Fix get_action_methods returning duplicate methods when a method is both
86 decorated with method attributes and set as an action in config.
88 Refactoring / cleanups:
89 - Reduce minimum supported perl version from 5.8.6 to 5.8.4 as there are
90 many people still running/testing this version with no known issues.
93 - Make the optional_http_server.t test an author only test which must be
94 run by authors to stop it being broken again.
95 - Fix recursion warnings in the test suites.
97 5.80011 2009-08-23 13:48:15
100 - Remove leftovers of the restarter engine. The removed code caused test
101 failures, which weren't apparent for anyone still having an old version
104 5.80010 2009-08-21 23:32:15
107 - Fix and add tests for a regression introduced by 5.80008.
108 Catalyst::Engine is now able to send out data from filehandles larger
109 than the default chunksize of 64k again.
111 5.80009 2009-08-21 22:21:08
114 - Fix and add tests for generating inner packages inside the COMPONENT
115 method, and those packages being correctly registered as components.
116 This fixes Catalyst::Model::DBIC among others.
118 5.80008 2009-08-21 17:47:30
121 - Fix replace_constructor warning to actually work if you make your
122 application class immutable without that option.
123 - Depend on Module::Pluggable 3.9 to prevent a bug wherein components
124 in inner packages might not be registered. This especially affected
126 - Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI - relax the check for versions of Microsoft
127 IIS. Provides compatibility with Windows 2008 R2 as well as
128 (hopefully) future versions.
129 - In tests which depend on the values of environment variables,
130 localise the environment, then delete only relevant environment
132 - Fix issue with Engine::HTTP not sending headers properly in some cases
134 - Make Catalyst::Engine write at least once when finalizing the response
135 body from a filehandle, even if the write is empty. This avoids fail
136 when trying to send out an empty response body from a filehandle.
137 - Catalyst::Engine::HTTP - Accept a fully qualified absolute URI in the
138 Request-URI of the Request-Line
140 Refactoring / cleanups:
141 - Deleted the Restarter engine and its Watcher code. Use the
142 new Catalyst::Restarter in a recent Catalyst::Devel instead.
143 - New unit test for Catalyst::Action 'unit_core_action.t'
144 - Bump minimum supported perl version from 5.8.1 to 5.8.6 as there are
145 known issues with 5.8.3.
146 - Debug output uses dynamic column sizing to create more readable output
147 when using a larger $ENV{COLUMNS} setting. (groditi)
150 - Added private_path method for Catalyst::Action
151 - Allow uri_for($controller_instance) which will produce a URI
152 for the controller namespace
153 - Break setup_components into two more parts: locate_components and
154 expand_component_module (rjbs)
155 - Allow Components to return anon classed from their COMPONENT method
156 correctly, and have action registration work on Controllers returned
157 as such by adding a catalyst_component_name accessor for all components
158 which returns the component instance's name to be used when building
160 - Adding X-Forwarded-Port to allow the frontend proxy to dictate the
161 frontend port (jshirley)
162 - Added Catalyst::Stats->created accessor for the time at the start of
166 - Fix POD to refer to ->config(key => $val), rather than
167 ->config->{key} = $val, as the latter form is deprecated.
168 - Clearer docs for the 'uri_for' method.
169 - Fix POD refering to CGI::Cookie. We're using CGI::Simple::Cookie.
172 5.80007 2009-06-30 23:54:34
175 - Don't mangle query parameters passed to uri_for
176 - Tests for this (Byron Young + Amir Sadoughi)
177 - Inherited controller methods can now be specified in
179 - Assigning an undef response body no longer produces warnings
180 - Fix C3 incompatibility bug caused if you use Moose in MyApp.pm and
181 add Catalyst to the right hand side of this in @ISA.
182 - Make Catalyst.pm implement the Component::ApplicationAttribute
183 interface so defining actions in MyApp.pm works again, if the
184 actions have attributes that cause $self->_application to be used
188 - Add optional second argument to uri_with which appends to existing
189 params rather than replacing them. (foo=1 becomes foo=1&foo=2 when
190 uri_with({ foo => 2 }, { mode => 'append' }) is called on a foo=1
193 5.80006 2009-06-29 23:37:47
196 - Revert change to URL encode things passed into $c->uri_for
197 Args and CaptureArgs as this causes breakage to pre-existing
199 - Remove use of Test::MockObject as it doesn't install from CPAN
200 in some environments.
201 - Remove use of dclone to deep copy configs and replace with
202 Catalyst::Utils::merge_hashes which has the same effect, of
203 ensuring child classes don't inherit their parent's config,
204 except works correctly with closures.
205 - Add Class::C3::reinitialize into Catalyst::Test to avoid weird
206 bugs in ctx_request (bokutin in RT#46459)
207 - Fix issues with _parse_PathPrefix_attr method in Catalyst::Controller
209 - Fix bugs with action sorting:
210 - Path actions sorted so that the most specific wins.
211 - Action methods named default and index fixed.
214 - Use ~ as prefix for plugins or action classes which are located in
215 MyApp::Plugin / MyApp::Action (mo)
216 - Controller methods without attributes are now considered actions if
217 they are specified in config->{action(s)} (mo)
218 - Add Catalyst::Component::ContextClosure as an easy way to create code
219 references, that close over the context, without creating leaks.
221 Refactoring / cleanups:
222 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Exception*.
223 - Turn Catalyst::Exception into an actual class and make the throw
224 method create instances of it. They can still be used as normal
225 strings, as before, as they are overloaded to stringify to their
227 - Add a rethrow method to Catalyst::Exception.
228 - Add Catalyst::Exception::Detach and ::Go, and refactor detach() and
229 go() to use them instead of magic, global strings.
231 - Clean up getting metaclass instance and making app class immutable
232 again in Catalyst::Test
234 5.80005 2009-06-06 14:40:00
237 - Arguments ($c->req->args) in Chained dispatch are now automatically
238 URL decoded to be consistent with Local/Path dispatch
241 - Clarify correct techniques for Moose controllers (domm)
244 - Further change pushing 'env' attribute down into Catalyst::Engine
245 to make $c->engine->env work in all cases (kmx)
246 - Also fix $c->engine->env in Catalyst::Test tests (kmx)
248 - Fix Catalyst failing to start if any plugin changed $_ whilst
251 - Be stricter about arguments to Args attributes for Chained actions,
252 so that they blow up on load instead of causing undefined behavior
255 - Prefer Path actions with a smaller (or set) number of Args (caelum)
256 Bug reported here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/931653/catalyst-action-that-matches-a-single-file-in-the-root-directory/933181#933181
260 - Add $c->req->remote_user to disambiguate from $c->req->user (dwc)
261 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.12 so that action methods
262 (with attributes) can be used in / composed from Moose roles.
263 - Allow the generation of cookies with the HTTPOnly flag set
264 in Catalyst::Engine (kmx)
266 5.80004 2009-05-18 17:03:23
267 - Rename the actions attribute in Catalyt::Controller to
268 _controller_actions to avoid name clashes with application
269 controller naming. (random)

271 Fixed by 349cda in Moose 0.78
272 - Fix deprecation message for Catalyst::Dispatcher to refer
273 to the class actually calling the deprecated method. RT#45741
274 - Clarify limitations of $request->base and $request->secure.
276 - Add 'use Catalyst' to documentation for a Moose MyApp class as
278 - Fix so that / (and other special characters) are URL encoded when
279 passed into $c->uri_for as Args/CaptureArgs
280 - Fix development server so that $c->engine->env returns the correct
282 - Require Moose 0.78 to fix metaclass incompatibility issues
283 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.10 and use
284 Moose::Meta::Class->initialize rather than Moose->init_meta to fix
285 bugs related to having a 'meta' method in your controller
286 - Fix cases where your application failing to compile could cause perl
287 to report 'Unknown Error'
288 - Support adding Moose::Roles to the plugin list. These are applied to
289 MyApp after plugins have been pushed onto @ISA
290 - Fix calling $c->req->parameters as the first thing you do when
291 parse_on_demand is on

300 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange
301 - Fix the unattached chain debug table for endpoints with no
303 - Turn of test aggregation by default. Only aggregate if the
304 AGGREGATE_TESTS environment variable is set and a recent
305 Test::Aggregate is available.
306 - Bump to MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.09, to gain the
307 get_nearest_methods_with_attributes method allowing methods without
308 attributes in a subclass to override those with attributes in a

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

507 - Make log levels additive, and add documentation and tests
508 for the setup_log method, which previously had none.
509 Sewn together by from two patches provided by David E. Wheeler
510 - Switch an around 'new' in Catalyst::Controller to a BUILDARGS
511 method as it's much neater and more obvious what is going on

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

638 fallback wherein a result is returned -- if you really want to search, call the
639 method with a regex as the argument
