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.
16 5.80016 2009-12-11 23:23:33
20 - Fix slurping a file to work correctly with binary on Win32 in the
21 encoding test controller.
23 Bug fixes in the new scripts (for applications which have been upgraded):
25 - Allow --restartdirectory as an option for the Server script, for
26 backwards compatibility. (Dave Rolsky)
27 - The --host option for the server script defaulted to localhost, rather
28 than listening on all interfaces, which was the previous default. (Dave
30 - Restore -p option for pid file in the FastCGI server script.
31 - Fix the script environment variables MYAPP_PORT and MYAPP_RELOAD RT#52604
32 - Fix aliasing applications under non-root paths with mod_rewrite in
33 some apache versions where %ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} is set to the real name of
34 the script, by using $ENV{REDIRECT_URL} which contains the non-rewritten
36 - Fix usage display when myapp_create.pl is run with no arguments. RT#52630
40 - The __MOP__ hash element is suppressed from being dumped fully
41 (and instead stringified) when dumping the error screen to be
42 less packed with information of no use.
46 - Fix Pod nits (RT#52370)
48 5.80015 2009-12-02 15:13:54
50 - Fix bug in Catalyst::Engine which would cause a request parsing to end
51 prematurely in the hypothetical case where calling $engine->read returned
52 the single character '0'.
53 - Fix failing tests when combined with new HTTP::Request::AsCGI
56 - Improved documentation on read and read_chunk methods in Catalyst::Engine.
57 - Fix reversal of SCRIPT_NAME and PATH_INFO in previously correct nginx
58 FastCGI documentation introduced in _02.
60 5.80014_02 2009-12-01 00:55:23
62 - Fix reporting the wrong Content-Length if the response body is an
63 upgraded string. Strings mean the same thing whether or not they are
64 upgraded, may get upgraded even after they are encoded, and will
65 produce the same output either way, but bytes::length returns too big
66 values for upgraded strings containing characters >127
67 - Fix t/live_fork.t with bleadperl (RT#52100)
68 - Set $ENV{PATH_INFO} from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} combined with
69 $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} if possible. This is many web servers always fully
70 decode PATH_INFO including URI reserved characters. This allows us to
71 tell foo%2cbar from foo%252cbar, and fixes issues with %2F in paths
72 being incorrectly decoded, resulting in too many path parts (rather
73 than 1 path part containing a /, on some web servers (at least nginx).
75 - Require new HTTP::Request::AsCGI so that it fully decodes $ENV{PATH_INFO}
76 in non CGI contexts. (RT#50082)
78 Refactoring / cleanups:
79 - NoTabs and Pod tests moved to t/author so that they're not run
80 (and then skipped) normally.
83 - Fix Pod nits in Catalyst::Response (RT#51818)
85 5.80014_01 2009-11-22 20:01:23
88 - Filehandle now forced to binmode in CGI and FastCGI engines. This appears
89 to correct some UTF-8 issues, but may break people's code which relies
92 Refactoring / cleanups:
93 - Plugins which inherit from Catalyst::Controller or Catalyst::Component
94 are deprecated and now issue warnings.
96 5.80014 2009-11-21 02:51:14
99 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.17. This in turn requires new
100 MooseX::Types to stop warnings in Moose 0.91, and correctly supports
101 role combination of roles containing attributed methods.
102 - Catalyst::Dispatcher::dispatch_types no longer throws deprecated warnings
103 as there is no recommended alternative.
104 - Improved the suggested fix warning when component resolution uses regex
105 fallback for fully qualified component names.
106 - Catalyst::Test::local_request sets ->request on the response.
107 - Log flush moved to the end of setup so that roles and plugins which
108 hook setup_finalize can log things and have them appear in application
109 startup, rather than with the first hit.
110 - Require a newer version of LWP to avoid failing tests.
111 - Stop warnings when actions are forwarded to during dispatch.
112 - Remove warnings for using Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_types as this is a
113 valid method to publicly call on the dispatcher.
114 - Args ($c->request->args) and CaptureArgs ($c->request->captrues)
115 passed to $c->uri_for with an action object ($c->action) will now
116 correctly round-trip when args or captures contain / as it is now
117 correctly uri encoded to %2F.
120 - Document no-args call to $c->uri_for.
121 - Document all top level application configuration parameters.
122 - Clarify how to fix actions in your application class (which is
123 deprecated and causes warnings).
124 - Pod fixes for ContextClosure.
125 - Fix documentation for go/visit to reference captures and arguments
126 in the correct order.
127 - Update $c->forward and $c->state documentation to address scalar
129 - Pod fix in Catalyst::Request (RT#51490)
130 - Pod fixes to refer to ::Controller:: rather than ::C:: as the latter
131 is deprecated (RT#51489)
134 - Added disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config option to
135 switch off (deprecated) regex fallback for component resolution.
136 - Added an nginx-specific behavior to the FastCGI engine to allow
137 proper PATH_INFO and SCRIPT_NAME processing for non-root applications
138 - Enable Catalyst::Utils::home() to find home within Dist::Zilla built
140 - Added the Catalyst::Exception::Interface role defining the interface
141 exception classes need to implement.
142 - Added Catalyst::Exception::Basic as a basic implementation of
143 Catalyst::Exception::Interface and made the existing exception classes
146 Refactoring / cleanups:
147 - Remove documentation for the case_sensitive setting
148 - Warning is now emitted at application startup if the case_sensitive
149 setting is turned on. This setting is not used by anyone, not
150 believed to be useful and adds unnecessary complexity to controllers
151 and the dispatcher. If you are using this setting and have good reasons
152 why it should stay then you need to be shouting, now.
153 - Writing to $c->req->body now fails as doing this never makes sense.
155 5.80013 2009-09-17 11:07:04
158 - Preserve immutable_options when temporarily making a class mutable in
159 Catalyst::ClassData as this is needed by new Class::MOP.
160 This could have potentially caused issues when using the deprecated runtime
161 plugins feature in an application with plugins which define their own new
163 - Require new Moose version and new versions of various dependencies
164 to avoid warnings from newest Moose release.
165 - Fix go / visit expecting captures and arguments in reverse order.
168 - Rework the $c->go documentation to make it more clear.
169 - Additional documentation in Catalyst::Upgrading covering more deprecation
172 Refactoring / cleanups:
173 - Action methods in the application class are deprecated and applications
174 using them will now generate a warning at startup.
175 - The -short option has been removed from catalyst.pl, stopping new
176 applications from being generated using the ::[MVC]:: naming scheme as
177 this is deprecated and generates warnings. RT#49771
179 5.80012 2009-09-09 19:09:09
182 - Fix t/optional_http-server.t test.
183 - Fix t/optional_http-server-restart.t test.
184 - Fix duplicate components being loaded at setup time, each component is
185 now loaded at most once + tests.
186 - Fix backward compatibility - hash key configured actions are stored in
187 is returned to 'actions'.
188 - Fix get_action_methods returning duplicate methods when a method is both
189 decorated with method attributes and set as an action in config.
191 Refactoring / cleanups:
192 - Reduce minimum supported perl version from 5.8.6 to 5.8.4 as there are
193 many people still running/testing this version with no known issues.
196 - Make the optional_http_server.t test an author only test which must be
197 run by authors to stop it being broken again.
198 - Fix recursion warnings in the test suites.
200 5.80011 2009-08-23 13:48:15
203 - Remove leftovers of the restarter engine. The removed code caused test
204 failures, which weren't apparent for anyone still having an old version
207 5.80010 2009-08-21 23:32:15
210 - Fix and add tests for a regression introduced by 5.80008.
211 Catalyst::Engine is now able to send out data from filehandles larger
212 than the default chunksize of 64k again.
214 5.80009 2009-08-21 22:21:08
217 - Fix and add tests for generating inner packages inside the COMPONENT
218 method, and those packages being correctly registered as components.
219 This fixes Catalyst::Model::DBIC among others.
221 5.80008 2009-08-21 17:47:30
224 - Fix replace_constructor warning to actually work if you make your
225 application class immutable without that option.
226 - Depend on Module::Pluggable 3.9 to prevent a bug wherein components
227 in inner packages might not be registered. This especially affected
229 - Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI - relax the check for versions of Microsoft
230 IIS. Provides compatibility with Windows 2008 R2 as well as
231 (hopefully) future versions.
232 - In tests which depend on the values of environment variables,
233 localise the environment, then delete only relevant environment
235 - Fix issue with Engine::HTTP not sending headers properly in some cases
237 - Make Catalyst::Engine write at least once when finalizing the response
238 body from a filehandle, even if the write is empty. This avoids fail
239 when trying to send out an empty response body from a filehandle.
240 - Catalyst::Engine::HTTP - Accept a fully qualified absolute URI in the
241 Request-URI of the Request-Line
243 Refactoring / cleanups:
244 - Deleted the Restarter engine and its Watcher code. Use the
245 new Catalyst::Restarter in a recent Catalyst::Devel instead.
246 - New unit test for Catalyst::Action 'unit_core_action.t'
247 - Bump minimum supported perl version from 5.8.1 to 5.8.6 as there are
248 known issues with 5.8.3.
249 - Debug output uses dynamic column sizing to create more readable output
250 when using a larger $ENV{COLUMNS} setting. (groditi)
253 - Added private_path method for Catalyst::Action
254 - Allow uri_for($controller_instance) which will produce a URI
255 for the controller namespace
256 - Break setup_components into two more parts: locate_components and
257 expand_component_module (rjbs)
258 - Allow Components to return anon classed from their COMPONENT method
259 correctly, and have action registration work on Controllers returned
260 as such by adding a catalyst_component_name accessor for all components
261 which returns the component instance's name to be used when building
263 - Adding X-Forwarded-Port to allow the frontend proxy to dictate the
264 frontend port (jshirley)
265 - Added Catalyst::Stats->created accessor for the time at the start of
269 - Fix POD to refer to ->config(key => $val), rather than
270 ->config->{key} = $val, as the latter form is deprecated.
271 - Clearer docs for the 'uri_for' method.
272 - Fix POD refering to CGI::Cookie. We're using CGI::Simple::Cookie.
275 5.80007 2009-06-30 23:54:34
278 - Don't mangle query parameters passed to uri_for
279 - Tests for this (Byron Young + Amir Sadoughi)
280 - Inherited controller methods can now be specified in
282 - Assigning an undef response body no longer produces warnings
283 - Fix C3 incompatibility bug caused if you use Moose in MyApp.pm and
284 add Catalyst to the right hand side of this in @ISA.
285 - Make Catalyst.pm implement the Component::ApplicationAttribute
286 interface so defining actions in MyApp.pm works again, if the
287 actions have attributes that cause $self->_application to be used
291 - Add optional second argument to uri_with which appends to existing
292 params rather than replacing them. (foo=1 becomes foo=1&foo=2 when
293 uri_with({ foo => 2 }, { mode => 'append' }) is called on a foo=1
296 5.80006 2009-06-29 23:37:47
299 - Revert change to URL encode things passed into $c->uri_for
300 Args and CaptureArgs as this causes breakage to pre-existing
302 - Remove use of Test::MockObject as it doesn't install from CPAN
303 in some environments.
304 - Remove use of dclone to deep copy configs and replace with
305 Catalyst::Utils::merge_hashes which has the same effect, of
306 ensuring child classes don't inherit their parent's config,
307 except works correctly with closures.
308 - Add Class::C3::reinitialize into Catalyst::Test to avoid weird
309 bugs in ctx_request (bokutin in RT#46459)
310 - Fix issues with _parse_PathPrefix_attr method in Catalyst::Controller
312 - Fix bugs with action sorting:
313 - Path actions sorted so that the most specific wins.
314 - Action methods named default and index fixed.
317 - Use ~ as prefix for plugins or action classes which are located in
318 MyApp::Plugin / MyApp::Action (mo)
319 - Controller methods without attributes are now considered actions if
320 they are specified in config->{action(s)} (mo)
321 - Add Catalyst::Component::ContextClosure as an easy way to create code
322 references, that close over the context, without creating leaks.
324 Refactoring / cleanups:
325 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Exception*.
326 - Turn Catalyst::Exception into an actual class and make the throw
327 method create instances of it. They can still be used as normal
328 strings, as before, as they are overloaded to stringify to their
330 - Add a rethrow method to Catalyst::Exception.
331 - Add Catalyst::Exception::Detach and ::Go, and refactor detach() and
332 go() to use them instead of magic, global strings.
334 - Clean up getting metaclass instance and making app class immutable
335 again in Catalyst::Test
337 5.80005 2009-06-06 14:40:00
340 - Arguments ($c->req->args) in Chained dispatch are now automatically
341 URL decoded to be consistent with Local/Path dispatch
344 - Clarify correct techniques for Moose controllers (domm)
347 - Further change pushing 'env' attribute down into Catalyst::Engine
348 to make $c->engine->env work in all cases (kmx)
349 - Also fix $c->engine->env in Catalyst::Test tests (kmx)
351 - Fix Catalyst failing to start if any plugin changed $_ whilst
354 - Be stricter about arguments to Args attributes for Chained actions,
355 so that they blow up on load instead of causing undefined behavior
358 - Prefer Path actions with a smaller (or set) number of Args (caelum)
359 Bug reported here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/931653/catalyst-action-that-matches-a-single-file-in-the-root-directory/933181#933181
363 - Add $c->req->remote_user to disambiguate from $c->req->user (dwc)
364 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.12 so that action methods
365 (with attributes) can be used in / composed from Moose roles.
366 - Allow the generation of cookies with the HTTPOnly flag set
367 in Catalyst::Engine (kmx)
369 5.80004 2009-05-18 17:03:23
370 - Rename the actions attribute in Catalyt::Controller to
371 _controller_actions to avoid name clashes with application
372 controller naming. (random)
373 - Test for using Moose in components which have a non-Moose base class
374 Fixed by 349cda in Moose 0.78
375 - Fix deprecation message for Catalyst::Dispatcher to refer
376 to the class actually calling the deprecated method. RT#45741
377 - Clarify limitations of $request->base and $request->secure.
379 - Add 'use Catalyst' to documentation for a Moose MyApp class as
381 - Fix so that / (and other special characters) are URL encoded when
382 passed into $c->uri_for as Args/CaptureArgs
383 - Fix development server so that $c->engine->env returns the correct
385 - Require Moose 0.78 to fix metaclass incompatibility issues
386 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.10 and use
387 Moose::Meta::Class->initialize rather than Moose->init_meta to fix
388 bugs related to having a 'meta' method in your controller
389 - Fix cases where your application failing to compile could cause perl
390 to report 'Unknown Error'
391 - Support adding Moose::Roles to the plugin list. These are applied to
392 MyApp after plugins have been pushed onto @ISA
393 - Fix calling $c->req->parameters as the first thing you do when
394 parse_on_demand is on
396 5.80003 2009-04-29 16:23:53
397 - Various POD tweaks. (hdp, dandv)
398 - Fix formatting error in the regex fallback warning.
399 - Convert the dispatcher's and restarter engine's BUILD method to
400 attribute builders to not override the BUILD method from
401 MooseX::Emulate::Class::Accessor::Fast.
402 - Fix classes without metaclasses restarting, when not using
403 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange
404 - Fix the unattached chain debug table for endpoints with no
406 - Turn of test aggregation by default. Only aggregate if the
407 AGGREGATE_TESTS environment variable is set and a recent
408 Test::Aggregate is available.
409 - Bump to MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.09, to gain the
410 get_nearest_methods_with_attributes method allowing methods without
411 attributes in a subclass to override those with attributes in a
412 superclass. This fixes CatalystX::CRUD's method of overriding /
413 disabling functionality from base controllers.
414 - Bump HTTP::Request::AsCGI dependency to avoid broken version
415 - Bump Moose dependency to latest version to fix metaclass
416 incompatibility issues in some cases.

420 - Fixes for uri_for_action when using Catalyst::DispatchType::Regex
421 + tests from RT#39369 (norbi)
422 - Partial rewrite and reoganisation of the C3 docs in
423 Catalyst::Upgrading based on feedback from kiffin
424 - If you make your application class immutable and turn off
425 constructor inlining, Catalyst will die and tell you pass
426 the (replace_constructor => 1) argument to
427 make_immutable. (Dave Rolsky)
429 5.80002 2009-04-22 01:28:36
430 - Fix CATALYST_DEBUG and MYAPP_DEBUG environment variables
431 turning debuging on if defined, rather than if set.
432 They now force debugging on or off, taking precedence over
433 configuration in your application.
435 - pass replace_constructor to the immutable call to ensure
436 applications get a Moose constructor rather than a C::A one
437 - Fix issues with restarting the application class due to C3 failures
439 - Work around issues in Moose with initialization order of multiple
440 levels of non-Moose classes inheriting from a Moose class
442 - Add backwards compatibility method for Catalyst::Log->body, which
443 has been made private
444 - Fix so that calling $c->req->parameters(undef) does not flatten
445 the request parameters with undef + test
446 - Fix so that width of table of unattached actions for debugging
447 ::DispatchType::Chained varies according to your terminal width
449 - Fix warning message about linearized @ISA in Catalyst::Component
451 - Require MX::MethodAttributes 0.06 to avoid issues with saying
452 use base 'Catalyst::Controller'; use Moose; losing actions
453 - Fix all of's typos in ::Upgrading and ::Delta (hobbs)
455 5.80001 2009-04-18 22:18
456 - Don't inline the constructor for Catalyst::Log to avoid a
457 warning on recent Moose versions.
458 - Add delta documentation
459 - Clean up recursion errors
460 - Extra cross links in dispatch types POD (Ian Wells)
461 - Test uri_with clears query params when they are set to undef
463 - Complain about old Catalyst::Devel versions which generated
464 ->setup(qw/-Debug... etc. as this is not recommended
466 5.8000_07 2009-04-12 13:37
467 - Add the Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_type method (ash)
468 - Throw an exception rather than loading an app if an action
469 tries to chain to itself
471 - Change the $c->visit and $c->go methods to optionally take
472 CaptureArgs, making them useful to call ActionChains with
473 - Tests for this (radek)
474 - Fix _invoke_as_component method to find the proper action instance
475 for dispatchable actions so that ->visit or ->going to ActionChains
476 with qw/Class::Name method_name/ works correctly
477 - Tests for this (radek)
478 - Added Catalyst::Test::ctx_request to be able to inspect
479 the context object after a request is made (Jos Boumans)
480 - debug() POD rewrite (jhannah)
481 - Change the warning when you have conflicting components to
483 - Move NEXT use and testing deprecated features out to its own
484 test application so that the main TestApp isn't polluted with
486 - Add a warning for the old ::[MVC]:: style naming scheme
488 - Kill Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT warnings for the Catalyst:: namespace
489 in production versions
490 - Tidy up Catalyst::ClassData to ensure that all components get
491 the correct metaclass
492 - Make MyApp.pm restartable by unsetting setup_finished in
493 the restarter process
494 - Non-naive implementation of making mutable on restart using
495 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange if installed
497 - Naive implementation of making all components mutable in the
498 forked restart watcher process so native Moose apps using
499 immutable restart correctly.
501 - Bump Moose dependency to 0.70 so that we avoid nasty surprises
502 with is_class_loaded and perl 5.80 when you Moosify MyApp.pm
503 - Clarify that request arguments aren't unescaped automatically
504 (Simon Bertrang) (Closes RT#41153)
505 - Don't require C3 for the MRO test
506 - Bump MX::Emulate::CAF prereq to support list assignment
507 - Remove useless column in chained action debug table.
508 - namespace::clean related cleanups
509 - Import related cleanups and consistency fixes
510 - Fix test suite TestApp /dump/env action
511 - Add $res->code as alias for $res->status
512 - Make Catalyst::ClassData compatible with the latest Class::MOP::Class
513 changes. Also depend on the latest Class::MOP.
514 - Add $c->uri_for_action method.
515 - Don't stringify the meta method. Use its name instead.
516 - Use MooseX::MethodAttributes::Inheritable to contain action
517 attributes. This means that attributes are now represented in the MOP,
518 allowing method modifiers on actions to work as expected.
519 - Provide a reasonable API in Catalyst::Controller for working with
520 and registering actions, allowing a controller sub-class to replace
521 subroutine attributes for action declerations with an alternate
523 - Instantiate correct sub-class of Moose::Meta::Class for non-Moose
524 components where Catalyst forces the creation of a metaclass instance.
525 This is more correct, and avoids metaclass incompatibility in complex
528 - Use of deprecated Catalyst::Base now warns.
531 5.8000_06 2009-02-04 21:00

557 - Fixes for FastCGI with IIS 6.0 (janus)
558 - Passing request method exported by Catalyst::Test an extra
559 parameter used to be ignored, but started breaking if the parameter
560 was not a hash in 5.8000_04. Extra parameter is now ignored if
562 - Fix request argumentss getting corrupted if you override the
563 dispatcher and call an action which detaches (for
564 Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL)
565 - Fix calling use Catalyst::Test 'MyApp' 'foo' which used to work,
566 but stopped as the 2nd parameter can be an options hash now
567 - Bump Moose dependency to fix make_immutable bug
568 - Use compile time extends in Catalyst::Controller
569 - Make Catalyst::Request::uploads attribute non-lazy, to fix
570 test for Catalyst-Engine-Apache
571 - Bump version of MooseX::Emulate::Class::Accessor::Fast
572 - Stop using MooseX::Adopt::Class::Accessor::Fast by default, to stop
