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.
15 - Do not crash on SIGHUP if Catalyst::Engine::HTTP->run is not passed the
16 argv key in the options hash.
17 - Correctly pass the arguments to Catalyst::Script::Server through to
18 Catalyst::Engine::HTTP->run so that the server can restart itself
19 with the correct options on SIGHUP.
20 - Require new MooseX::MethodAttributes to be compatible with Moose
24 - Stop suppressing warnings from Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT now that most plugins
25 have been updated to not use NEXT. If you get warnings then please upgrade
26 your components or log a bug with the component author if an upgrade is
27 not available. The Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT documentation contains information
28 about how to suppress the warnings in your application if you need to.
30 5.80016 2009-12-11 23:23:33
34 - Fix slurping a file to work correctly with binary on Win32 in the
35 encoding test controller.
37 Bug fixes in the new scripts (for applications which have been upgraded):
39 - Allow --restartdirectory as an option for the Server script, for
40 backwards compatibility. (Dave Rolsky)
41 - The --host option for the server script defaulted to localhost, rather
42 than listening on all interfaces, which was the previous default. (Dave
44 - Restore -p option for pid file in the FastCGI server script.
45 - Fix the script environment variables MYAPP_PORT and MYAPP_RELOAD RT#52604
46 - Fix aliasing applications under non-root paths with mod_rewrite in
47 some apache versions where %ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} is set to the real name of
48 the script, by using $ENV{REDIRECT_URL} which contains the non-rewritten
50 - Fix usage display when myapp_create.pl is run with no arguments. RT#52630
54 - The __MOP__ hash element is suppressed from being dumped fully
55 (and instead stringified) when dumping the error screen to be
56 less packed with information of no use.
60 - Fix Pod nits (RT#52370)
62 5.80015 2009-12-02 15:13:54
64 - Fix bug in Catalyst::Engine which would cause a request parsing to end
65 prematurely in the hypothetical case where calling $engine->read returned
66 the single character '0'.
67 - Fix failing tests when combined with new HTTP::Request::AsCGI
70 - Improved documentation on read and read_chunk methods in Catalyst::Engine.
71 - Fix reversal of SCRIPT_NAME and PATH_INFO in previously correct nginx
72 FastCGI documentation introduced in _02.
74 5.80014_02 2009-12-01 00:55:23
76 - Fix reporting the wrong Content-Length if the response body is an
77 upgraded string. Strings mean the same thing whether or not they are
78 upgraded, may get upgraded even after they are encoded, and will
79 produce the same output either way, but bytes::length returns too big
80 values for upgraded strings containing characters >127
81 - Fix t/live_fork.t with bleadperl (RT#52100)
82 - Set $ENV{PATH_INFO} from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} combined with
83 $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} if possible. This is many web servers always fully
84 decode PATH_INFO including URI reserved characters. This allows us to
85 tell foo%2cbar from foo%252cbar, and fixes issues with %2F in paths
86 being incorrectly decoded, resulting in too many path parts (rather
87 than 1 path part containing a /, on some web servers (at least nginx).
89 - Require new HTTP::Request::AsCGI so that it fully decodes $ENV{PATH_INFO}
90 in non CGI contexts. (RT#50082)
92 Refactoring / cleanups:
93 - NoTabs and Pod tests moved to t/author so that they're not run
94 (and then skipped) normally.
97 - Fix Pod nits in Catalyst::Response (RT#51818)
99 5.80014_01 2009-11-22 20:01:23
102 - Filehandle now forced to binmode in CGI and FastCGI engines. This appears
103 to correct some UTF-8 issues, but may break people's code which relies
104 on the old behaviour.
106 Refactoring / cleanups:
107 - Plugins which inherit from Catalyst::Controller or Catalyst::Component
108 are deprecated and now issue warnings.
110 5.80014 2009-11-21 02:51:14
113 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.17. This in turn requires new
114 MooseX::Types to stop warnings in Moose 0.91, and correctly supports
115 role combination of roles containing attributed methods.
116 - Catalyst::Dispatcher::dispatch_types no longer throws deprecated warnings
117 as there is no recommended alternative.
118 - Improved the suggested fix warning when component resolution uses regex
119 fallback for fully qualified component names.
120 - Catalyst::Test::local_request sets ->request on the response.
121 - Log flush moved to the end of setup so that roles and plugins which
122 hook setup_finalize can log things and have them appear in application
123 startup, rather than with the first hit.
124 - Require a newer version of LWP to avoid failing tests.
125 - Stop warnings when actions are forwarded to during dispatch.
126 - Remove warnings for using Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_types as this is a
127 valid method to publicly call on the dispatcher.
128 - Args ($c->request->args) and CaptureArgs ($c->request->captrues)
129 passed to $c->uri_for with an action object ($c->action) will now
130 correctly round-trip when args or captures contain / as it is now
131 correctly uri encoded to %2F.
134 - Document no-args call to $c->uri_for.
135 - Document all top level application configuration parameters.
136 - Clarify how to fix actions in your application class (which is
137 deprecated and causes warnings).
138 - Pod fixes for ContextClosure.
139 - Fix documentation for go/visit to reference captures and arguments
140 in the correct order.
141 - Update $c->forward and $c->state documentation to address scalar
143 - Pod fix in Catalyst::Request (RT#51490)
144 - Pod fixes to refer to ::Controller:: rather than ::C:: as the latter
145 is deprecated (RT#51489)
148 - Added disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config option to
149 switch off (deprecated) regex fallback for component resolution.
150 - Added an nginx-specific behavior to the FastCGI engine to allow
151 proper PATH_INFO and SCRIPT_NAME processing for non-root applications
152 - Enable Catalyst::Utils::home() to find home within Dist::Zilla built
154 - Added the Catalyst::Exception::Interface role defining the interface
155 exception classes need to implement.
156 - Added Catalyst::Exception::Basic as a basic implementation of
157 Catalyst::Exception::Interface and made the existing exception classes
160 Refactoring / cleanups:
161 - Remove documentation for the case_sensitive setting
162 - Warning is now emitted at application startup if the case_sensitive
163 setting is turned on. This setting is not used by anyone, not
164 believed to be useful and adds unnecessary complexity to controllers
165 and the dispatcher. If you are using this setting and have good reasons
166 why it should stay then you need to be shouting, now.
167 - Writing to $c->req->body now fails as doing this never makes sense.
169 5.80013 2009-09-17 11:07:04
172 - Preserve immutable_options when temporarily making a class mutable in
173 Catalyst::ClassData as this is needed by new Class::MOP.
174 This could have potentially caused issues when using the deprecated runtime
175 plugins feature in an application with plugins which define their own new
177 - Require new Moose version and new versions of various dependencies
178 to avoid warnings from newest Moose release.
179 - Fix go / visit expecting captures and arguments in reverse order.
182 - Rework the $c->go documentation to make it more clear.
183 - Additional documentation in Catalyst::Upgrading covering more deprecation
186 Refactoring / cleanups:
187 - Action methods in the application class are deprecated and applications
188 using them will now generate a warning at startup.
189 - The -short option has been removed from catalyst.pl, stopping new
190 applications from being generated using the ::[MVC]:: naming scheme as
191 this is deprecated and generates warnings. RT#49771
193 5.80012 2009-09-09 19:09:09
196 - Fix t/optional_http-server.t test.
197 - Fix t/optional_http-server-restart.t test.
198 - Fix duplicate components being loaded at setup time, each component is
199 now loaded at most once + tests.
200 - Fix backward compatibility - hash key configured actions are stored in
201 is returned to 'actions'.
202 - Fix get_action_methods returning duplicate methods when a method is both
203 decorated with method attributes and set as an action in config.
205 Refactoring / cleanups:
206 - Reduce minimum supported perl version from 5.8.6 to 5.8.4 as there are
207 many people still running/testing this version with no known issues.
210 - Make the optional_http_server.t test an author only test which must be
211 run by authors to stop it being broken again.
212 - Fix recursion warnings in the test suites.
214 5.80011 2009-08-23 13:48:15
217 - Remove leftovers of the restarter engine. The removed code caused test
218 failures, which weren't apparent for anyone still having an old version
221 5.80010 2009-08-21 23:32:15
224 - Fix and add tests for a regression introduced by 5.80008.
225 Catalyst::Engine is now able to send out data from filehandles larger
226 than the default chunksize of 64k again.
228 5.80009 2009-08-21 22:21:08
231 - Fix and add tests for generating inner packages inside the COMPONENT
232 method, and those packages being correctly registered as components.
233 This fixes Catalyst::Model::DBIC among others.
235 5.80008 2009-08-21 17:47:30
238 - Fix replace_constructor warning to actually work if you make your
239 application class immutable without that option.
240 - Depend on Module::Pluggable 3.9 to prevent a bug wherein components
241 in inner packages might not be registered. This especially affected
243 - Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI - relax the check for versions of Microsoft
244 IIS. Provides compatibility with Windows 2008 R2 as well as
245 (hopefully) future versions.
246 - In tests which depend on the values of environment variables,
247 localise the environment, then delete only relevant environment
249 - Fix issue with Engine::HTTP not sending headers properly in some cases
251 - Make Catalyst::Engine write at least once when finalizing the response
252 body from a filehandle, even if the write is empty. This avoids fail
253 when trying to send out an empty response body from a filehandle.
254 - Catalyst::Engine::HTTP - Accept a fully qualified absolute URI in the
255 Request-URI of the Request-Line
257 Refactoring / cleanups:
258 - Deleted the Restarter engine and its Watcher code. Use the
259 new Catalyst::Restarter in a recent Catalyst::Devel instead.
260 - New unit test for Catalyst::Action 'unit_core_action.t'
261 - Bump minimum supported perl version from 5.8.1 to 5.8.6 as there are
262 known issues with 5.8.3.
263 - Debug output uses dynamic column sizing to create more readable output
264 when using a larger $ENV{COLUMNS} setting. (groditi)
267 - Added private_path method for Catalyst::Action
268 - Allow uri_for($controller_instance) which will produce a URI
269 for the controller namespace
270 - Break setup_components into two more parts: locate_components and
271 expand_component_module (rjbs)
272 - Allow Components to return anon classed from their COMPONENT method
273 correctly, and have action registration work on Controllers returned
274 as such by adding a catalyst_component_name accessor for all components
275 which returns the component instance's name to be used when building
277 - Adding X-Forwarded-Port to allow the frontend proxy to dictate the
278 frontend port (jshirley)
279 - Added Catalyst::Stats->created accessor for the time at the start of
283 - Fix POD to refer to ->config(key => $val), rather than
284 ->config->{key} = $val, as the latter form is deprecated.
285 - Clearer docs for the 'uri_for' method.
286 - Fix POD refering to CGI::Cookie. We're using CGI::Simple::Cookie.
289 5.80007 2009-06-30 23:54:34
292 - Don't mangle query parameters passed to uri_for
293 - Tests for this (Byron Young + Amir Sadoughi)
294 - Inherited controller methods can now be specified in
296 - Assigning an undef response body no longer produces warnings
297 - Fix C3 incompatibility bug caused if you use Moose in MyApp.pm and
298 add Catalyst to the right hand side of this in @ISA.
299 - Make Catalyst.pm implement the Component::ApplicationAttribute
300 interface so defining actions in MyApp.pm works again, if the
301 actions have attributes that cause $self->_application to be used
305 - Add optional second argument to uri_with which appends to existing
306 params rather than replacing them. (foo=1 becomes foo=1&foo=2 when
307 uri_with({ foo => 2 }, { mode => 'append' }) is called on a foo=1
310 5.80006 2009-06-29 23:37:47
313 - Revert change to URL encode things passed into $c->uri_for
314 Args and CaptureArgs as this causes breakage to pre-existing
316 - Remove use of Test::MockObject as it doesn't install from CPAN
317 in some environments.
318 - Remove use of dclone to deep copy configs and replace with
319 Catalyst::Utils::merge_hashes which has the same effect, of
320 ensuring child classes don't inherit their parent's config,
321 except works correctly with closures.
322 - Add Class::C3::reinitialize into Catalyst::Test to avoid weird
323 bugs in ctx_request (bokutin in RT#46459)
324 - Fix issues with _parse_PathPrefix_attr method in Catalyst::Controller
326 - Fix bugs with action sorting:
327 - Path actions sorted so that the most specific wins.
328 - Action methods named default and index fixed.
331 - Use ~ as prefix for plugins or action classes which are located in
332 MyApp::Plugin / MyApp::Action (mo)
333 - Controller methods without attributes are now considered actions if
334 they are specified in config->{action(s)} (mo)
335 - Add Catalyst::Component::ContextClosure as an easy way to create code
336 references, that close over the context, without creating leaks.
338 Refactoring / cleanups:
339 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Exception*.
340 - Turn Catalyst::Exception into an actual class and make the throw
341 method create instances of it. They can still be used as normal
342 strings, as before, as they are overloaded to stringify to their
344 - Add a rethrow method to Catalyst::Exception.
345 - Add Catalyst::Exception::Detach and ::Go, and refactor detach() and
346 go() to use them instead of magic, global strings.
348 - Clean up getting metaclass instance and making app class immutable
349 again in Catalyst::Test
351 5.80005 2009-06-06 14:40:00
354 - Arguments ($c->req->args) in Chained dispatch are now automatically
355 URL decoded to be consistent with Local/Path dispatch
358 - Clarify correct techniques for Moose controllers (domm)
361 - Further change pushing 'env' attribute down into Catalyst::Engine
362 to make $c->engine->env work in all cases (kmx)
363 - Also fix $c->engine->env in Catalyst::Test tests (kmx)
365 - Fix Catalyst failing to start if any plugin changed $_ whilst
368 - Be stricter about arguments to Args attributes for Chained actions,
369 so that they blow up on load instead of causing undefined behavior
372 - Prefer Path actions with a smaller (or set) number of Args (caelum)
373 Bug reported here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/931653/catalyst-action-that-matches-a-single-file-in-the-root-directory/933181#933181
377 - Add $c->req->remote_user to disambiguate from $c->req->user (dwc)
378 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.12 so that action methods
379 (with attributes) can be used in / composed from Moose roles.
380 - Allow the generation of cookies with the HTTPOnly flag set
381 in Catalyst::Engine (kmx)
383 5.80004 2009-05-18 17:03:23
384 - Rename the actions attribute in Catalyt::Controller to
385 _controller_actions to avoid name clashes with application
386 controller naming. (random)
387 - Test for using Moose in components which have a non-Moose base class
388 Fixed by 349cda in Moose 0.78
389 - Fix deprecation message for Catalyst::Dispatcher to refer
390 to the class actually calling the deprecated method. RT#45741
391 - Clarify limitations of $request->base and $request->secure.
393 - Add 'use Catalyst' to documentation for a Moose MyApp class as
395 - Fix so that / (and other special characters) are URL encoded when
396 passed into $c->uri_for as Args/CaptureArgs
397 - Fix development server so that $c->engine->env returns the correct
399 - Require Moose 0.78 to fix metaclass incompatibility issues
400 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.10 and use
401 Moose::Meta::Class->initialize rather than Moose->init_meta to fix
402 bugs related to having a 'meta' method in your controller
403 - Fix cases where your application failing to compile could cause perl
404 to report 'Unknown Error'
405 - Support adding Moose::Roles to the plugin list. These are applied to
406 MyApp after plugins have been pushed onto @ISA
407 - Fix calling $c->req->parameters as the first thing you do when
408 parse_on_demand is on
410 5.80003 2009-04-29 16:23:53
411 - Various POD tweaks. (hdp, dandv)
412 - Fix formatting error in the regex fallback warning.
413 - Convert the dispatcher's and restarter engine's BUILD method to
414 attribute builders to not override the BUILD method from
415 MooseX::Emulate::Class::Accessor::Fast.
416 - Fix classes without metaclasses restarting, when not using
417 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange
418 - Fix the unattached chain debug table for endpoints with no
420 - Turn of test aggregation by default. Only aggregate if the
421 AGGREGATE_TESTS environment variable is set and a recent
422 Test::Aggregate is available.
423 - Bump to MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.09, to gain the
424 get_nearest_methods_with_attributes method allowing methods without
425 attributes in a subclass to override those with attributes in a
426 superclass. This fixes CatalystX::CRUD's method of overriding /
427 disabling functionality from base controllers.
428 - Bump HTTP::Request::AsCGI dependency to avoid broken version
429 - Bump Moose dependency to latest version to fix metaclass
430 incompatibility issues in some cases.
431 - Additional tests for setup_stats method.
432 - Fix log levels in Catalyst::Log to be properly additive.
433 - Fix RT#43375 by sorting results before testing them
434 - Fixes for uri_for_action when using Catalyst::DispatchType::Regex
435 + tests from RT#39369 (norbi)
436 - Partial rewrite and reoganisation of the C3 docs in
437 Catalyst::Upgrading based on feedback from kiffin
438 - If you make your application class immutable and turn off
439 constructor inlining, Catalyst will die and tell you pass
440 the (replace_constructor => 1) argument to
441 make_immutable. (Dave Rolsky)
443 5.80002 2009-04-22 01:28:36
444 - Fix CATALYST_DEBUG and MYAPP_DEBUG environment variables
445 turning debuging on if defined, rather than if set.
446 They now force debugging on or off, taking precedence over
447 configuration in your application.
449 - pass replace_constructor to the immutable call to ensure
450 applications get a Moose constructor rather than a C::A one
451 - Fix issues with restarting the application class due to C3 failures
453 - Work around issues in Moose with initialization order of multiple
454 levels of non-Moose classes inheriting from a Moose class
456 - Add backwards compatibility method for Catalyst::Log->body, which
457 has been made private
458 - Fix so that calling $c->req->parameters(undef) does not flatten
459 the request parameters with undef + test
460 - Fix so that width of table of unattached actions for debugging
461 ::DispatchType::Chained varies according to your terminal width
463 - Fix warning message about linearized @ISA in Catalyst::Component
465 - Require MX::MethodAttributes 0.06 to avoid issues with saying
466 use base 'Catalyst::Controller'; use Moose; losing actions
467 - Fix all of's typos in ::Upgrading and ::Delta (hobbs)
469 5.80001 2009-04-18 22:18
470 - Don't inline the constructor for Catalyst::Log to avoid a
471 warning on recent Moose versions.
472 - Add delta documentation
473 - Clean up recursion errors
474 - Extra cross links in dispatch types POD (Ian Wells)
475 - Test uri_with clears query params when they are set to undef
477 - Complain about old Catalyst::Devel versions which generated
478 ->setup(qw/-Debug... etc. as this is not recommended
480 5.8000_07 2009-04-12 13:37
481 - Add the Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_type method (ash)
482 - Throw an exception rather than loading an app if an action
483 tries to chain to itself
485 - Change the $c->visit and $c->go methods to optionally take
486 CaptureArgs, making them useful to call ActionChains with
487 - Tests for this (radek)
488 - Fix _invoke_as_component method to find the proper action instance
489 for dispatchable actions so that ->visit or ->going to ActionChains
490 with qw/Class::Name method_name/ works correctly
491 - Tests for this (radek)
492 - Added Catalyst::Test::ctx_request to be able to inspect
493 the context object after a request is made (Jos Boumans)
494 - debug() POD rewrite (jhannah)
495 - Change the warning when you have conflicting components to
497 - Move NEXT use and testing deprecated features out to its own
498 test application so that the main TestApp isn't polluted with
500 - Add a warning for the old ::[MVC]:: style naming scheme
502 - Kill Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT warnings for the Catalyst:: namespace
503 in production versions
504 - Tidy up Catalyst::ClassData to ensure that all components get
505 the correct metaclass
506 - Make MyApp.pm restartable by unsetting setup_finished in
507 the restarter process
508 - Non-naive implementation of making mutable on restart using
509 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange if installed
511 - Naive implementation of making all components mutable in the
512 forked restart watcher process so native Moose apps using
513 immutable restart correctly.
515 - Bump Moose dependency to 0.70 so that we avoid nasty surprises
516 with is_class_loaded and perl 5.80 when you Moosify MyApp.pm
517 - Clarify that request arguments aren't unescaped automatically
518 (Simon Bertrang) (Closes RT#41153)
519 - Don't require C3 for the MRO test
520 - Bump MX::Emulate::CAF prereq to support list assignment
521 - Remove useless column in chained action debug table.
522 - namespace::clean related cleanups
523 - Import related cleanups and consistency fixes
524 - Fix test suite TestApp /dump/env action
525 - Add $res->code as alias for $res->status
526 - Make Catalyst::ClassData compatible with the latest Class::MOP::Class
527 changes. Also depend on the latest Class::MOP.
528 - Add $c->uri_for_action method.
529 - Don't stringify the meta method. Use its name instead.
530 - Use MooseX::MethodAttributes::Inheritable to contain action
531 attributes. This means that attributes are now represented in the MOP,
532 allowing method modifiers on actions to work as expected.
533 - Provide a reasonable API in Catalyst::Controller for working with
534 and registering actions, allowing a controller sub-class to replace
535 subroutine attributes for action declerations with an alternate
537 - Instantiate correct sub-class of Moose::Meta::Class for non-Moose
538 components where Catalyst forces the creation of a metaclass instance.
539 This is more correct, and avoids metaclass incompatibility in complex
542 - Use of deprecated Catalyst::Base now warns.
545 5.8000_06 2009-02-04 21:00
546 - Disallow writing to config after setup
547 - Disallow calling setup more than once

551 - Stop Makefile.PL from warning about versions that fixed a conflict
552 - Improved upgrading documentation
553 - Seed the RNG in each FastCGI child process (Andrew Rodland)
554 - Properly report dynamic bind port for the development server
556 - Use the way documented by IO::Socket::INET to get the error message
557 after trying to create a listening socket (Closes RT#41828)
558 - Don't ignore SIGCHLD while handling requests with the dev server
561 5.8000_05 2008-29-01 00:00
562 - Text::SimpleTable's go as wide as $ENV{COLUMNS} (jhannah)

568 resolution uses regex fallback. (jhannah)
569 - Handle leading CRLF in HTTP requests sometimes sent by IE6 in
571 - Fixes for FastCGI with IIS 6.0 (janus)
572 - Passing request method exported by Catalyst::Test an extra
573 parameter used to be ignored, but started breaking if the parameter
