1 # This file documents the revision history for Perl extension Catalyst.
4 - Calls to $c->uri_for with private paths as strings (e.g.
5 $c->uri_for('controller/action', 'arg1', 'arg2') ) no longer have
6 / encoded to %2F. This is due to $c->uri_for('static', 'css/foo', $bar)
7 which should not be encoded.
8 Calls with an action object (rather than a string), or uri_for action
9 will still encode / in args and captures to %2F
11 - The above noted / => %2F encoding in uri_for_action or uri_for with
12 an action object has been fixed to not just encode the first slash in
13 any set of args/captures.
15 - nginx and lighttpd FCGI requests with URI encoded sections as the first
16 path part have been fixed to operate correctly.
18 - Aparantly useless conditional in Catalyst::Component::BUILDARGS
22 - Improve the documentation about -Home and how Catalyst finds the
23 home path for applications.
26 - Allow passing additional arguments to action constructors.
28 5.80018 2010-01-12 22:24:20
31 - Call ->canonical on URI derived from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} to get
32 paths correctly decoded. This bug was previously hidden by a bug
33 in HTTP::Request::AsCGI.
36 - Clarify that uri_for_action works on private paths, with example.
37 - Clarify documentation about debug
40 - Saying use Catalyst::Test; (without an application name or () to stop
41 the importer running is now deprecated and will issue a warning.
42 You should be saying use Catalyst::Test ();
44 5.80017 2010-01-10 02:27:29
47 - Fix docs for ->forward method when passed a class name - this should
48 be a component name (e.g. View::HTML, not a full class name, like
52 - --daemon and -d options to Catalyst::Script::FastCGI are fixed.
53 - Fix the debug dump for applications which use Catalyst::Plugin::Session
55 - Fix regression in the case where mod_rewrite is being used to rewrite
56 requests into a path below your application base introduced with the
57 %2F related fixes in 5.80014_02.
58 - Do not crash on SIGHUP if Catalyst::Engine::HTTP->run is not passed the
59 argv key in the options hash.
60 - Correctly pass the arguments to Catalyst::Script::Server through to
61 Catalyst::Engine::HTTP->run so that the server can restart itself
62 with the correct options on SIGHUP.
63 - Require new MooseX::MethodAttributes to be compatible with Moose
65 - Require new MooseX::Role::WithOverloading to be compatible with Moose
69 - Stop suppressing warnings from Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT now that most plugins
70 have been updated to not use NEXT. If you get warnings then please upgrade
71 your components or log a bug with the component author if an upgrade is
72 not available. The Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT documentation contains information
73 about how to suppress the warnings in your application if you need to.
75 5.80016 2009-12-11 23:23:33
79 - Fix slurping a file to work correctly with binary on Win32 in the
80 encoding test controller.
82 Bug fixes in the new scripts (for applications which have been upgraded):
84 - Allow --restartdirectory as an option for the Server script, for
85 backwards compatibility. (Dave Rolsky)
86 - The --host option for the server script defaulted to localhost, rather
87 than listening on all interfaces, which was the previous default. (Dave
89 - Restore -p option for pid file in the FastCGI server script.
90 - Fix the script environment variables MYAPP_PORT and MYAPP_RELOAD RT#52604
91 - Fix aliasing applications under non-root paths with mod_rewrite in
92 some apache versions where %ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} is set to the real name of
93 the script, by using $ENV{REDIRECT_URL} which contains the non-rewritten
95 - Fix usage display when myapp_create.pl is run with no arguments. RT#52630
99 - The __MOP__ hash element is suppressed from being dumped fully
100 (and instead stringified) when dumping the error screen to be
101 less packed with information of no use.
105 - Fix Pod nits (RT#52370)
107 5.80015 2009-12-02 15:13:54
109 - Fix bug in Catalyst::Engine which would cause a request parsing to end
110 prematurely in the hypothetical case where calling $engine->read returned
111 the single character '0'.
112 - Fix failing tests when combined with new HTTP::Request::AsCGI
115 - Improved documentation on read and read_chunk methods in Catalyst::Engine.
116 - Fix reversal of SCRIPT_NAME and PATH_INFO in previously correct nginx
117 FastCGI documentation introduced in _02.
119 5.80014_02 2009-12-01 00:55:23
121 - Fix reporting the wrong Content-Length if the response body is an
122 upgraded string. Strings mean the same thing whether or not they are
123 upgraded, may get upgraded even after they are encoded, and will
124 produce the same output either way, but bytes::length returns too big
125 values for upgraded strings containing characters >127
126 - Fix t/live_fork.t with bleadperl (RT#52100)
127 - Set $ENV{PATH_INFO} from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} combined with
128 $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} if possible. This is many web servers always fully
129 decode PATH_INFO including URI reserved characters. This allows us to
130 tell foo%2cbar from foo%252cbar, and fixes issues with %2F in paths
131 being incorrectly decoded, resulting in too many path parts (rather
132 than 1 path part containing a /, on some web servers (at least nginx).
134 - Require new HTTP::Request::AsCGI so that it fully decodes $ENV{PATH_INFO}
135 in non CGI contexts. (RT#50082)
137 Refactoring / cleanups:
138 - NoTabs and Pod tests moved to t/author so that they're not run
139 (and then skipped) normally.
142 - Fix Pod nits in Catalyst::Response (RT#51818)
144 5.80014_01 2009-11-22 20:01:23
147 - Filehandle now forced to binmode in CGI and FastCGI engines. This appears
148 to correct some UTF-8 issues, but may break people's code which relies
149 on the old behaviour.
151 Refactoring / cleanups:
152 - Plugins which inherit from Catalyst::Controller or Catalyst::Component
153 are deprecated and now issue warnings.
155 5.80014 2009-11-21 02:51:14
158 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.17. This in turn requires new
159 MooseX::Types to stop warnings in Moose 0.91, and correctly supports
160 role combination of roles containing attributed methods.
161 - Catalyst::Dispatcher::dispatch_types no longer throws deprecated warnings
162 as there is no recommended alternative.
163 - Improved the suggested fix warning when component resolution uses regex
164 fallback for fully qualified component names.
165 - Catalyst::Test::local_request sets ->request on the response.
166 - Log flush moved to the end of setup so that roles and plugins which
167 hook setup_finalize can log things and have them appear in application
168 startup, rather than with the first hit.
169 - Require a newer version of LWP to avoid failing tests.
170 - Stop warnings when actions are forwarded to during dispatch.
171 - Remove warnings for using Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_types as this is a
172 valid method to publicly call on the dispatcher.
173 - Args ($c->request->args) and CaptureArgs ($c->request->captrues)
174 passed to $c->uri_for with an action object ($c->action) will now
175 correctly round-trip when args or captures contain / as it is now
176 correctly uri encoded to %2F.
179 - Document no-args call to $c->uri_for.
180 - Document all top level application configuration parameters.
181 - Clarify how to fix actions in your application class (which is
182 deprecated and causes warnings).
183 - Pod fixes for ContextClosure.
184 - Fix documentation for go/visit to reference captures and arguments
185 in the correct order.
186 - Update $c->forward and $c->state documentation to address scalar
188 - Pod fix in Catalyst::Request (RT#51490)
189 - Pod fixes to refer to ::Controller:: rather than ::C:: as the latter
190 is deprecated (RT#51489)
193 - Added disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config option to
194 switch off (deprecated) regex fallback for component resolution.
195 - Added an nginx-specific behavior to the FastCGI engine to allow
196 proper PATH_INFO and SCRIPT_NAME processing for non-root applications
197 - Enable Catalyst::Utils::home() to find home within Dist::Zilla built
199 - Added the Catalyst::Exception::Interface role defining the interface
200 exception classes need to implement.
201 - Added Catalyst::Exception::Basic as a basic implementation of
202 Catalyst::Exception::Interface and made the existing exception classes
205 Refactoring / cleanups:
206 - Remove documentation for the case_sensitive setting
207 - Warning is now emitted at application startup if the case_sensitive
208 setting is turned on. This setting is not used by anyone, not
209 believed to be useful and adds unnecessary complexity to controllers
210 and the dispatcher. If you are using this setting and have good reasons
211 why it should stay then you need to be shouting, now.
212 - Writing to $c->req->body now fails as doing this never makes sense.
214 5.80013 2009-09-17 11:07:04
217 - Preserve immutable_options when temporarily making a class mutable in
218 Catalyst::ClassData as this is needed by new Class::MOP.
219 This could have potentially caused issues when using the deprecated runtime
220 plugins feature in an application with plugins which define their own new
222 - Require new Moose version and new versions of various dependencies
223 to avoid warnings from newest Moose release.
224 - Fix go / visit expecting captures and arguments in reverse order.
227 - Rework the $c->go documentation to make it more clear.
228 - Additional documentation in Catalyst::Upgrading covering more deprecation
231 Refactoring / cleanups:
232 - Action methods in the application class are deprecated and applications
233 using them will now generate a warning at startup.
234 - The -short option has been removed from catalyst.pl, stopping new
235 applications from being generated using the ::[MVC]:: naming scheme as
236 this is deprecated and generates warnings. RT#49771
238 5.80012 2009-09-09 19:09:09
241 - Fix t/optional_http-server.t test.
242 - Fix t/optional_http-server-restart.t test.
243 - Fix duplicate components being loaded at setup time, each component is
244 now loaded at most once + tests.
245 - Fix backward compatibility - hash key configured actions are stored in
246 is returned to 'actions'.
247 - Fix get_action_methods returning duplicate methods when a method is both
248 decorated with method attributes and set as an action in config.
250 Refactoring / cleanups:
251 - Reduce minimum supported perl version from 5.8.6 to 5.8.4 as there are
252 many people still running/testing this version with no known issues.
255 - Make the optional_http_server.t test an author only test which must be
256 run by authors to stop it being broken again.
257 - Fix recursion warnings in the test suites.
259 5.80011 2009-08-23 13:48:15
262 - Remove leftovers of the restarter engine. The removed code caused test
263 failures, which weren't apparent for anyone still having an old version
266 5.80010 2009-08-21 23:32:15
269 - Fix and add tests for a regression introduced by 5.80008.
270 Catalyst::Engine is now able to send out data from filehandles larger
271 than the default chunksize of 64k again.
273 5.80009 2009-08-21 22:21:08
276 - Fix and add tests for generating inner packages inside the COMPONENT
277 method, and those packages being correctly registered as components.
278 This fixes Catalyst::Model::DBIC among others.
280 5.80008 2009-08-21 17:47:30
283 - Fix replace_constructor warning to actually work if you make your
284 application class immutable without that option.
285 - Depend on Module::Pluggable 3.9 to prevent a bug wherein components
286 in inner packages might not be registered. This especially affected
288 - Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI - relax the check for versions of Microsoft
289 IIS. Provides compatibility with Windows 2008 R2 as well as
290 (hopefully) future versions.
291 - In tests which depend on the values of environment variables,
292 localise the environment, then delete only relevant environment
294 - Fix issue with Engine::HTTP not sending headers properly in some cases
296 - Make Catalyst::Engine write at least once when finalizing the response
297 body from a filehandle, even if the write is empty. This avoids fail
298 when trying to send out an empty response body from a filehandle.
299 - Catalyst::Engine::HTTP - Accept a fully qualified absolute URI in the
300 Request-URI of the Request-Line
302 Refactoring / cleanups:
303 - Deleted the Restarter engine and its Watcher code. Use the
304 new Catalyst::Restarter in a recent Catalyst::Devel instead.
305 - New unit test for Catalyst::Action 'unit_core_action.t'
306 - Bump minimum supported perl version from 5.8.1 to 5.8.6 as there are
307 known issues with 5.8.3.
308 - Debug output uses dynamic column sizing to create more readable output
309 when using a larger $ENV{COLUMNS} setting. (groditi)
312 - Added private_path method for Catalyst::Action
313 - Allow uri_for($controller_instance) which will produce a URI
314 for the controller namespace
315 - Break setup_components into two more parts: locate_components and
316 expand_component_module (rjbs)
317 - Allow Components to return anon classed from their COMPONENT method
318 correctly, and have action registration work on Controllers returned
319 as such by adding a catalyst_component_name accessor for all components
320 which returns the component instance's name to be used when building
322 - Adding X-Forwarded-Port to allow the frontend proxy to dictate the
323 frontend port (jshirley)
324 - Added Catalyst::Stats->created accessor for the time at the start of
328 - Fix POD to refer to ->config(key => $val), rather than
329 ->config->{key} = $val, as the latter form is deprecated.
330 - Clearer docs for the 'uri_for' method.
331 - Fix POD refering to CGI::Cookie. We're using CGI::Simple::Cookie.
334 5.80007 2009-06-30 23:54:34
337 - Don't mangle query parameters passed to uri_for
338 - Tests for this (Byron Young + Amir Sadoughi)
339 - Inherited controller methods can now be specified in
341 - Assigning an undef response body no longer produces warnings
342 - Fix C3 incompatibility bug caused if you use Moose in MyApp.pm and
343 add Catalyst to the right hand side of this in @ISA.
344 - Make Catalyst.pm implement the Component::ApplicationAttribute
345 interface so defining actions in MyApp.pm works again, if the
346 actions have attributes that cause $self->_application to be used
350 - Add optional second argument to uri_with which appends to existing
351 params rather than replacing them. (foo=1 becomes foo=1&foo=2 when
352 uri_with({ foo => 2 }, { mode => 'append' }) is called on a foo=1
355 5.80006 2009-06-29 23:37:47
358 - Revert change to URL encode things passed into $c->uri_for
359 Args and CaptureArgs as this causes breakage to pre-existing
361 - Remove use of Test::MockObject as it doesn't install from CPAN
362 in some environments.
363 - Remove use of dclone to deep copy configs and replace with
364 Catalyst::Utils::merge_hashes which has the same effect, of
365 ensuring child classes don't inherit their parent's config,
366 except works correctly with closures.
367 - Add Class::C3::reinitialize into Catalyst::Test to avoid weird
368 bugs in ctx_request (bokutin in RT#46459)
369 - Fix issues with _parse_PathPrefix_attr method in Catalyst::Controller
371 - Fix bugs with action sorting:
372 - Path actions sorted so that the most specific wins.
373 - Action methods named default and index fixed.
376 - Use ~ as prefix for plugins or action classes which are located in
377 MyApp::Plugin / MyApp::Action (mo)
378 - Controller methods without attributes are now considered actions if
379 they are specified in config->{action(s)} (mo)
380 - Add Catalyst::Component::ContextClosure as an easy way to create code
381 references, that close over the context, without creating leaks.
383 Refactoring / cleanups:
384 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Exception*.
385 - Turn Catalyst::Exception into an actual class and make the throw
386 method create instances of it. They can still be used as normal
387 strings, as before, as they are overloaded to stringify to their
389 - Add a rethrow method to Catalyst::Exception.
390 - Add Catalyst::Exception::Detach and ::Go, and refactor detach() and
391 go() to use them instead of magic, global strings.
393 - Clean up getting metaclass instance and making app class immutable
394 again in Catalyst::Test
396 5.80005 2009-06-06 14:40:00
399 - Arguments ($c->req->args) in Chained dispatch are now automatically
400 URL decoded to be consistent with Local/Path dispatch
403 - Clarify correct techniques for Moose controllers (domm)
406 - Further change pushing 'env' attribute down into Catalyst::Engine
407 to make $c->engine->env work in all cases (kmx)
408 - Also fix $c->engine->env in Catalyst::Test tests (kmx)
410 - Fix Catalyst failing to start if any plugin changed $_ whilst
413 - Be stricter about arguments to Args attributes for Chained actions,
414 so that they blow up on load instead of causing undefined behavior
417 - Prefer Path actions with a smaller (or set) number of Args (caelum)
418 Bug reported here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/931653/catalyst-action-that-matches-a-single-file-in-the-root-directory/933181#933181
422 - Add $c->req->remote_user to disambiguate from $c->req->user (dwc)
423 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.12 so that action methods
424 (with attributes) can be used in / composed from Moose roles.
425 - Allow the generation of cookies with the HTTPOnly flag set
426 in Catalyst::Engine (kmx)
428 5.80004 2009-05-18 17:03:23
429 - Rename the actions attribute in Catalyt::Controller to
430 _controller_actions to avoid name clashes with application
431 controller naming. (random)
432 - Test for using Moose in components which have a non-Moose base class
433 Fixed by 349cda in Moose 0.78
434 - Fix deprecation message for Catalyst::Dispatcher to refer
435 to the class actually calling the deprecated method. RT#45741
436 - Clarify limitations of $request->base and $request->secure.
438 - Add 'use Catalyst' to documentation for a Moose MyApp class as
440 - Fix so that / (and other special characters) are URL encoded when
441 passed into $c->uri_for as Args/CaptureArgs
442 - Fix development server so that $c->engine->env returns the correct
444 - Require Moose 0.78 to fix metaclass incompatibility issues
445 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.10 and use
446 Moose::Meta::Class->initialize rather than Moose->init_meta to fix
447 bugs related to having a 'meta' method in your controller
448 - Fix cases where your application failing to compile could cause perl
449 to report 'Unknown Error'
450 - Support adding Moose::Roles to the plugin list. These are applied to
451 MyApp after plugins have been pushed onto @ISA
452 - Fix calling $c->req->parameters as the first thing you do when
453 parse_on_demand is on
455 5.80003 2009-04-29 16:23:53
456 - Various POD tweaks. (hdp, dandv)
457 - Fix formatting error in the regex fallback warning.
458 - Convert the dispatcher's and restarter engine's BUILD method to
459 attribute builders to not override the BUILD method from
460 MooseX::Emulate::Class::Accessor::Fast.
461 - Fix classes without metaclasses restarting, when not using
462 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange
463 - Fix the unattached chain debug table for endpoints with no
465 - Turn off test aggregation by default. Only aggregate if the
466 AGGREGATE_TESTS environment variable is set and a recent
467 Test::Aggregate is available.
468 - Bump to MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.09, to gain the
469 get_nearest_methods_with_attributes method allowing methods without
470 attributes in a subclass to override those with attributes in a
471 superclass. This fixes CatalystX::CRUD's method of overriding /
472 disabling functionality from base controllers.
473 - Bump HTTP::Request::AsCGI dependency to avoid broken version
474 - Bump Moose dependency to latest version to fix metaclass
475 incompatibility issues in some cases.
476 - Additional tests for setup_stats method.
477 - Fix log levels in Catalyst::Log to be properly additive.
478 - Fix RT#43375 by sorting results before testing them
479 - Fixes for uri_for_action when using Catalyst::DispatchType::Regex
480 + tests from RT#39369 (norbi)
481 - Partial rewrite and reoganisation of the C3 docs in
482 Catalyst::Upgrading based on feedback from kiffin
483 - If you make your application class immutable and turn off
484 constructor inlining, Catalyst will die and tell you pass
485 the (replace_constructor => 1) argument to
486 make_immutable. (Dave Rolsky)
488 5.80002 2009-04-22 01:28:36
489 - Fix CATALYST_DEBUG and MYAPP_DEBUG environment variables
490 turning debuging on if defined, rather than if set.
491 They now force debugging on or off, taking precedence over
492 configuration in your application.
494 - pass replace_constructor to the immutable call to ensure
495 applications get a Moose constructor rather than a C::A one
496 - Fix issues with restarting the application class due to C3 failures
498 - Work around issues in Moose with initialization order of multiple
499 levels of non-Moose classes inheriting from a Moose class
501 - Add backwards compatibility method for Catalyst::Log->body, which
502 has been made private
503 - Fix so that calling $c->req->parameters(undef) does not flatten
504 the request parameters with undef + test
505 - Fix so that width of table of unattached actions for debugging
506 ::DispatchType::Chained varies according to your terminal width
508 - Fix warning message about linearized @ISA in Catalyst::Component
510 - Require MX::MethodAttributes 0.06 to avoid issues with saying
511 use base 'Catalyst::Controller'; use Moose; losing actions
512 - Fix all of's typos in ::Upgrading and ::Delta (hobbs)
514 5.80001 2009-04-18 22:18
515 - Don't inline the constructor for Catalyst::Log to avoid a
516 warning on recent Moose versions.
517 - Add delta documentation
518 - Clean up recursion errors
519 - Extra cross links in dispatch types POD (Ian Wells)
520 - Test uri_with clears query params when they are set to undef
522 - Complain about old Catalyst::Devel versions which generated
523 ->setup(qw/-Debug... etc. as this is not recommended
525 5.8000_07 2009-04-12 13:37
526 - Add the Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_type method (ash)
527 - Throw an exception rather than loading an app if an action
528 tries to chain to itself
530 - Change the $c->visit and $c->go methods to optionally take
531 CaptureArgs, making them useful to call ActionChains with
532 - Tests for this (radek)
533 - Fix _invoke_as_component method to find the proper action instance
534 for dispatchable actions so that ->visit or ->going to ActionChains
535 with qw/Class::Name method_name/ works correctly
536 - Tests for this (radek)
537 - Added Catalyst::Test::ctx_request to be able to inspect
538 the context object after a request is made (Jos Boumans)
539 - debug() POD rewrite (jhannah)
540 - Change the warning when you have conflicting components to
542 - Move NEXT use and testing deprecated features out to its own
543 test application so that the main TestApp isn't polluted with
545 - Add a warning for the old ::[MVC]:: style naming scheme
547 - Kill Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT warnings for the Catalyst:: namespace
548 in production versions
549 - Tidy up Catalyst::ClassData to ensure that all components get
550 the correct metaclass
551 - Make MyApp.pm restartable by unsetting setup_finished in
552 the restarter process
553 - Non-naive implementation of making mutable on restart using
554 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange if installed
556 - Naive implementation of making all components mutable in the
557 forked restart watcher process so native Moose apps using
558 immutable restart correctly.
560 - Bump Moose dependency to 0.70 so that we avoid nasty surprises
561 with is_class_loaded and perl 5.80 when you Moosify MyApp.pm
562 - Clarify that request arguments aren't unescaped automatically
563 (Simon Bertrang) (Closes RT#41153)
564 - Don't require C3 for the MRO test
565 - Bump MX::Emulate::CAF prereq to support list assignment
566 - Remove useless column in chained action debug table.
567 - namespace::clean related cleanups
568 - Import related cleanups and consistency fixes
569 - Fix test suite TestApp /dump/env action
570 - Add $res->code as alias for $res->status
571 - Make Catalyst::ClassData compatible with the latest Class::MOP::Class
572 changes. Also depend on the latest Class::MOP.
573 - Add $c->uri_for_action method.
574 - Don't stringify the meta method. Use its name instead.
575 - Use MooseX::MethodAttributes::Inheritable to contain action
576 attributes. This means that attributes are now represented in the MOP,
577 allowing method modifiers on actions to work as expected.
578 - Provide a reasonable API in Catalyst::Controller for working with
579 and registering actions, allowing a controller sub-class to replace
580 subroutine attributes for action declerations with an alternate
