1 # This file documents the revision history for Perl extension Catalyst.
4 - The __MOP__ hash element is suppressed from being dumped fully
5 (and instead stringified) when dumping the error screen to be
6 less packed with information of no use.
9 - Fix Pod nits (RT#52370)
11 5.80015 2009-12-02 15:13:54
13 - Fix bug in Catalyst::Engine which would cause a request parsing to end
14 prematurely in the hypothetical case where calling $engine->read returned
15 the single character '0'.
16 - Fix failing tests when combined with new HTTP::Request::AsCGI
19 - Improved documentation on read and read_chunk methods in Catalyst::Engine.
20 - Fix reversal of SCRIPT_NAME and PATH_INFO in previously correct nginx
21 FastCGI documentation introduced in _02.
23 5.80014_02 2009-12-01 00:55:23
25 - Fix reporting the wrong Content-Length if the response body is an
26 upgraded string. Strings mean the same thing whether or not they are
27 upgraded, may get upgraded even after they are encoded, and will
28 produce the same output either way, but bytes::length returns too big
29 values for upgraded strings containing characters >127
30 - Fix t/live_fork.t with bleadperl (RT#52100)
31 - Set $ENV{PATH_INFO} from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} combined with
32 $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} if possible. This is many web servers always fully
33 decode PATH_INFO including URI reserved characters. This allows us to
34 tell foo%2cbar from foo%252cbar, and fixes issues with %2F in paths
35 being incorrectly decoded, resulting in too many path parts (rather
36 than 1 path part containing a /, on some web servers (at least nginx).
38 - Require new HTTP::Request::AsCGI so that it fully decodes $ENV{PATH_INFO}
39 in non CGI contexts. (RT#50082)
41 Refactoring / cleanups:
42 - NoTabs and Pod tests moved to t/author so that they're not run
43 (and then skipped) normally.
46 - Fix Pod nits in Catalyst::Response (RT#51818)
48 5.80014_01 2009-11-22 20:01:23
51 - Filehandle now forced to binmode in CGI and FastCGI engines. This appears
52 to correct some UTF-8 issues, but may break people's code which relies
55 Refactoring / cleanups:
56 - Plugins which inherit from Catalyst::Controller or Catalyst::Component
57 are deprecated and now issue warnings.
59 5.80014 2009-11-21 02:51:14
62 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.17. This in turn requires new
63 MooseX::Types to stop warnings in Moose 0.91, and correctly supports
64 role combination of roles containing attributed methods.
65 - Catalyst::Dispatcher::dispatch_types no longer throws deprecated warnings
66 as there is no recommended alternative.
67 - Improved the suggested fix warning when component resolution uses regex
68 fallback for fully qualified component names.
69 - Catalyst::Test::local_request sets ->request on the response.
70 - Log flush moved to the end of setup so that roles and plugins which
71 hook setup_finalize can log things and have them appear in application
72 startup, rather than with the first hit.
73 - Require a newer version of LWP to avoid failing tests.
74 - Stop warnings when actions are forwarded to during dispatch.
75 - Remove warnings for using Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_types as this is a
76 valid method to publicly call on the dispatcher.
77 - Args ($c->request->args) and CaptureArgs ($c->request->captrues)
78 passed to $c->uri_for with an action object ($c->action) will now
79 correctly round-trip when args or captures contain / as it is now
80 correctly uri encoded to %2F.
83 - Document no-args call to $c->uri_for.
84 - Document all top level application configuration parameters.
85 - Clarify how to fix actions in your application class (which is
86 deprecated and causes warnings).
87 - Pod fixes for ContextClosure.
88 - Fix documentation for go/visit to reference captures and arguments
90 - Update $c->forward and $c->state documentation to address scalar
92 - Pod fix in Catalyst::Request (RT#51490)
93 - Pod fixes to refer to ::Controller:: rather than ::C:: as the latter
94 is deprecated (RT#51489)
97 - Added disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config option to
98 switch off (deprecated) regex fallback for component resolution.
99 - Added an nginx-specific behavior to the FastCGI engine to allow
100 proper PATH_INFO and SCRIPT_NAME processing for non-root applications
101 - Enable Catalyst::Utils::home() to find home within Dist::Zilla built
103 - Added the Catalyst::Exception::Interface role defining the interface
104 exception classes need to implement.
105 - Added Catalyst::Exception::Basic as a basic implementation of
106 Catalyst::Exception::Interface and made the existing exception classes
109 Refactoring / cleanups:
110 - Remove documentation for the case_sensitive setting
111 - Warning is now emitted at application startup if the case_sensitive
112 setting is turned on. This setting is not used by anyone, not
113 believed to be useful and adds unnecessary complexity to controllers
114 and the dispatcher. If you are using this setting and have good reasons
115 why it should stay then you need to be shouting, now.
116 - Writing to $c->req->body now fails as doing this never makes sense.
118 5.80013 2009-09-17 11:07:04
121 - Preserve immutable_options when temporarily making a class mutable in
122 Catalyst::ClassData as this is needed by new Class::MOP.
123 This could have potentially caused issues when using the deprecated runtime
124 plugins feature in an application with plugins which define their own new
126 - Require new Moose version and new versions of various dependencies
127 to avoid warnings from newest Moose release.
128 - Fix go / visit expecting captures and arguments in reverse order.
131 - Rework the $c->go documentation to make it more clear.
132 - Additional documentation in Catalyst::Upgrading covering more deprecation
135 Refactoring / cleanups:
136 - Action methods in the application class are deprecated and applications
137 using them will now generate a warning at startup.
138 - The -short option has been removed from catalyst.pl, stopping new
139 applications from being generated using the ::[MVC]:: naming scheme as
140 this is deprecated and generates warnings. RT#49771
142 5.80012 2009-09-09 19:09:09
145 - Fix t/optional_http-server.t test.
146 - Fix t/optional_http-server-restart.t test.
147 - Fix duplicate components being loaded at setup time, each component is
148 now loaded at most once + tests.
149 - Fix backward compatibility - hash key configured actions are stored in
150 is returned to 'actions'.
151 - Fix get_action_methods returning duplicate methods when a method is both
152 decorated with method attributes and set as an action in config.
154 Refactoring / cleanups:
155 - Reduce minimum supported perl version from 5.8.6 to 5.8.4 as there are
156 many people still running/testing this version with no known issues.
159 - Make the optional_http_server.t test an author only test which must be
160 run by authors to stop it being broken again.
161 - Fix recursion warnings in the test suites.
163 5.80011 2009-08-23 13:48:15
166 - Remove leftovers of the restarter engine. The removed code caused test
167 failures, which weren't apparent for anyone still having an old version
170 5.80010 2009-08-21 23:32:15
173 - Fix and add tests for a regression introduced by 5.80008.
174 Catalyst::Engine is now able to send out data from filehandles larger
175 than the default chunksize of 64k again.
177 5.80009 2009-08-21 22:21:08
180 - Fix and add tests for generating inner packages inside the COMPONENT
181 method, and those packages being correctly registered as components.
182 This fixes Catalyst::Model::DBIC among others.
184 5.80008 2009-08-21 17:47:30
187 - Fix replace_constructor warning to actually work if you make your
188 application class immutable without that option.
189 - Depend on Module::Pluggable 3.9 to prevent a bug wherein components
190 in inner packages might not be registered. This especially affected
192 - Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI - relax the check for versions of Microsoft
193 IIS. Provides compatibility with Windows 2008 R2 as well as
194 (hopefully) future versions.
195 - In tests which depend on the values of environment variables,
196 localise the environment, then delete only relevant environment
198 - Fix issue with Engine::HTTP not sending headers properly in some cases
200 - Make Catalyst::Engine write at least once when finalizing the response
201 body from a filehandle, even if the write is empty. This avoids fail
202 when trying to send out an empty response body from a filehandle.
203 - Catalyst::Engine::HTTP - Accept a fully qualified absolute URI in the
204 Request-URI of the Request-Line
206 Refactoring / cleanups:
207 - Deleted the Restarter engine and its Watcher code. Use the
208 new Catalyst::Restarter in a recent Catalyst::Devel instead.
209 - New unit test for Catalyst::Action 'unit_core_action.t'
210 - Bump minimum supported perl version from 5.8.1 to 5.8.6 as there are
211 known issues with 5.8.3.
212 - Debug output uses dynamic column sizing to create more readable output
213 when using a larger $ENV{COLUMNS} setting. (groditi)
216 - Added private_path method for Catalyst::Action
217 - Allow uri_for($controller_instance) which will produce a URI
218 for the controller namespace
219 - Break setup_components into two more parts: locate_components and
220 expand_component_module (rjbs)
221 - Allow Components to return anon classed from their COMPONENT method
222 correctly, and have action registration work on Controllers returned
223 as such by adding a catalyst_component_name accessor for all components
224 which returns the component instance's name to be used when building
226 - Adding X-Forwarded-Port to allow the frontend proxy to dictate the
227 frontend port (jshirley)
228 - Added Catalyst::Stats->created accessor for the time at the start of
232 - Fix POD to refer to ->config(key => $val), rather than
233 ->config->{key} = $val, as the latter form is deprecated.
234 - Clearer docs for the 'uri_for' method.
235 - Fix POD refering to CGI::Cookie. We're using CGI::Simple::Cookie.
238 5.80007 2009-06-30 23:54:34
241 - Don't mangle query parameters passed to uri_for
242 - Tests for this (Byron Young + Amir Sadoughi)
243 - Inherited controller methods can now be specified in
245 - Assigning an undef response body no longer produces warnings
246 - Fix C3 incompatibility bug caused if you use Moose in MyApp.pm and
247 add Catalyst to the right hand side of this in @ISA.
248 - Make Catalyst.pm implement the Component::ApplicationAttribute
249 interface so defining actions in MyApp.pm works again, if the
250 actions have attributes that cause $self->_application to be used
254 - Add optional second argument to uri_with which appends to existing
255 params rather than replacing them. (foo=1 becomes foo=1&foo=2 when
256 uri_with({ foo => 2 }, { mode => 'append' }) is called on a foo=1
259 5.80006 2009-06-29 23:37:47
262 - Revert change to URL encode things passed into $c->uri_for
263 Args and CaptureArgs as this causes breakage to pre-existing
265 - Remove use of Test::MockObject as it doesn't install from CPAN
266 in some environments.
267 - Remove use of dclone to deep copy configs and replace with
268 Catalyst::Utils::merge_hashes which has the same effect, of
269 ensuring child classes don't inherit their parent's config,
270 except works correctly with closures.
271 - Add Class::C3::reinitialize into Catalyst::Test to avoid weird
272 bugs in ctx_request (bokutin in RT#46459)
273 - Fix issues with _parse_PathPrefix_attr method in Catalyst::Controller
275 - Fix bugs with action sorting:
276 - Path actions sorted so that the most specific wins.
277 - Action methods named default and index fixed.
280 - Use ~ as prefix for plugins or action classes which are located in
281 MyApp::Plugin / MyApp::Action (mo)
282 - Controller methods without attributes are now considered actions if
283 they are specified in config->{action(s)} (mo)
284 - Add Catalyst::Component::ContextClosure as an easy way to create code
285 references, that close over the context, without creating leaks.
287 Refactoring / cleanups:
288 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Exception*.
289 - Turn Catalyst::Exception into an actual class and make the throw
290 method create instances of it. They can still be used as normal
291 strings, as before, as they are overloaded to stringify to their
293 - Add a rethrow method to Catalyst::Exception.
294 - Add Catalyst::Exception::Detach and ::Go, and refactor detach() and
295 go() to use them instead of magic, global strings.
297 - Clean up getting metaclass instance and making app class immutable
298 again in Catalyst::Test
300 5.80005 2009-06-06 14:40:00
303 - Arguments ($c->req->args) in Chained dispatch are now automatically
304 URL decoded to be consistent with Local/Path dispatch
307 - Clarify correct techniques for Moose controllers (domm)
310 - Further change pushing 'env' attribute down into Catalyst::Engine
311 to make $c->engine->env work in all cases (kmx)
312 - Also fix $c->engine->env in Catalyst::Test tests (kmx)
314 - Fix Catalyst failing to start if any plugin changed $_ whilst
317 - Be stricter about arguments to Args attributes for Chained actions,
318 so that they blow up on load instead of causing undefined behavior
321 - Prefer Path actions with a smaller (or set) number of Args (caelum)
322 Bug reported here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/931653/catalyst-action-that-matches-a-single-file-in-the-root-directory/933181#933181
326 - Add $c->req->remote_user to disambiguate from $c->req->user (dwc)
327 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.12 so that action methods
328 (with attributes) can be used in / composed from Moose roles.
329 - Allow the generation of cookies with the HTTPOnly flag set
330 in Catalyst::Engine (kmx)
332 5.80004 2009-05-18 17:03:23
333 - Rename the actions attribute in Catalyt::Controller to
334 _controller_actions to avoid name clashes with application
335 controller naming. (random)
336 - Test for using Moose in components which have a non-Moose base class
337 Fixed by 349cda in Moose 0.78
338 - Fix deprecation message for Catalyst::Dispatcher to refer
339 to the class actually calling the deprecated method. RT#45741
340 - Clarify limitations of $request->base and $request->secure.
342 - Add 'use Catalyst' to documentation for a Moose MyApp class as
344 - Fix so that / (and other special characters) are URL encoded when
345 passed into $c->uri_for as Args/CaptureArgs
346 - Fix development server so that $c->engine->env returns the correct
348 - Require Moose 0.78 to fix metaclass incompatibility issues
349 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.10 and use
350 Moose::Meta::Class->initialize rather than Moose->init_meta to fix
351 bugs related to having a 'meta' method in your controller
352 - Fix cases where your application failing to compile could cause perl
353 to report 'Unknown Error'
354 - Support adding Moose::Roles to the plugin list. These are applied to
355 MyApp after plugins have been pushed onto @ISA
356 - Fix calling $c->req->parameters as the first thing you do when
357 parse_on_demand is on
359 5.80003 2009-04-29 16:23:53
360 - Various POD tweaks. (hdp, dandv)
361 - Fix formatting error in the regex fallback warning.

365 - Fix classes without metaclasses restarting, when not using
366 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange
367 - Fix the unattached chain debug table for endpoints with no
369 - Turn of test aggregation by default. Only aggregate if the
370 AGGREGATE_TESTS environment variable is set and a recent
371 Test::Aggregate is available.
372 - Bump to MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.09, to gain the
373 get_nearest_methods_with_attributes method allowing methods without
374 attributes in a subclass to override those with attributes in a
375 superclass. This fixes CatalystX::CRUD's method of overriding /
376 disabling functionality from base controllers.
377 - Bump HTTP::Request::AsCGI dependency to avoid broken version
378 - Bump Moose dependency to latest version to fix metaclass
379 incompatibility issues in some cases.

383 - Fixes for uri_for_action when using Catalyst::DispatchType::Regex
384 + tests from RT#39369 (norbi)
385 - Partial rewrite and reoganisation of the C3 docs in
386 Catalyst::Upgrading based on feedback from kiffin
387 - If you make your application class immutable and turn off
388 constructor inlining, Catalyst will die and tell you pass
389 the (replace_constructor => 1) argument to
390 make_immutable. (Dave Rolsky)
392 5.80002 2009-04-22 01:28:36
393 - Fix CATALYST_DEBUG and MYAPP_DEBUG environment variables
394 turning debuging on if defined, rather than if set.
395 They now force debugging on or off, taking precedence over
396 configuration in your application.
398 - pass replace_constructor to the immutable call to ensure
399 applications get a Moose constructor rather than a C::A one
400 - Fix issues with restarting the application class due to C3 failures
402 - Work around issues in Moose with initialization order of multiple
403 levels of non-Moose classes inheriting from a Moose class
405 - Add backwards compatibility method for Catalyst::Log->body, which
406 has been made private
407 - Fix so that calling $c->req->parameters(undef) does not flatten
408 the request parameters with undef + test
409 - Fix so that width of table of unattached actions for debugging
410 ::DispatchType::Chained varies according to your terminal width
412 - Fix warning message about linearized @ISA in Catalyst::Component
414 - Require MX::MethodAttributes 0.06 to avoid issues with saying
415 use base 'Catalyst::Controller'; use Moose; losing actions
416 - Fix all of's typos in ::Upgrading and ::Delta (hobbs)
418 5.80001 2009-04-18 22:18
419 - Don't inline the constructor for Catalyst::Log to avoid a
420 warning on recent Moose versions.
421 - Add delta documentation
422 - Clean up recursion errors
423 - Extra cross links in dispatch types POD (Ian Wells)
424 - Test uri_with clears query params when they are set to undef
426 - Complain about old Catalyst::Devel versions which generated
427 ->setup(qw/-Debug... etc. as this is not recommended
429 5.8000_07 2009-04-12 13:37
430 - Add the Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_type method (ash)
431 - Throw an exception rather than loading an app if an action
432 tries to chain to itself
434 - Change the $c->visit and $c->go methods to optionally take
435 CaptureArgs, making them useful to call ActionChains with
436 - Tests for this (radek)
437 - Fix _invoke_as_component method to find the proper action instance
438 for dispatchable actions so that ->visit or ->going to ActionChains
439 with qw/Class::Name method_name/ works correctly
440 - Tests for this (radek)
441 - Added Catalyst::Test::ctx_request to be able to inspect
442 the context object after a request is made (Jos Boumans)
443 - debug() POD rewrite (jhannah)
444 - Change the warning when you have conflicting components to
446 - Move NEXT use and testing deprecated features out to its own
447 test application so that the main TestApp isn't polluted with
449 - Add a warning for the old ::[MVC]:: style naming scheme
451 - Kill Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT warnings for the Catalyst:: namespace
452 in production versions
453 - Tidy up Catalyst::ClassData to ensure that all components get
454 the correct metaclass
455 - Make MyApp.pm restartable by unsetting setup_finished in
456 the restarter process
457 - Non-naive implementation of making mutable on restart using
458 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange if installed
460 - Naive implementation of making all components mutable in the
461 forked restart watcher process so native Moose apps using
462 immutable restart correctly.
464 - Bump Moose dependency to 0.70 so that we avoid nasty surprises
465 with is_class_loaded and perl 5.80 when you Moosify MyApp.pm
466 - Clarify that request arguments aren't unescaped automatically
467 (Simon Bertrang) (Closes RT#41153)
468 - Don't require C3 for the MRO test

475 - Make Catalyst::ClassData compatible with the latest Class::MOP::Class
476 changes. Also depend on the latest Class::MOP.
477 - Add $c->uri_for_action method.
478 - Don't stringify the meta method. Use its name instead.
479 - Use MooseX::MethodAttributes::Inheritable to contain action
480 attributes. This means that attributes are now represented in the MOP,
481 allowing method modifiers on actions to work as expected.
482 - Provide a reasonable API in Catalyst::Controller for working with
483 and registering actions, allowing a controller sub-class to replace
484 subroutine attributes for action declerations with an alternate
486 - Instantiate correct sub-class of Moose::Meta::Class for non-Moose
487 components where Catalyst forces the creation of a metaclass instance.
488 This is more correct, and avoids metaclass incompatibility in complex
491 - Use of deprecated Catalyst::Base now warns.
494 5.8000_06 2009-02-04 21:00

520 - Fixes for FastCGI with IIS 6.0 (janus)
521 - Passing request method exported by Catalyst::Test an extra
522 parameter used to be ignored, but started breaking if the parameter
523 was not a hash in 5.8000_04. Extra parameter is now ignored if
525 - Fix request argumentss getting corrupted if you override the
526 dispatcher and call an action which detaches (for
527 Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL)
528 - Fix calling use Catalyst::Test 'MyApp' 'foo' which used to work,
529 but stopped as the 2nd parameter can be an options hash now
530 - Bump Moose dependency to fix make_immutable bug
531 - Use compile time extends in Catalyst::Controller
532 - Make Catalyst::Request::uploads attribute non-lazy, to fix
533 test for Catalyst-Engine-Apache
534 - Bump version of MooseX::Emulate::Class::Accessor::Fast
535 - Stop using MooseX::Adopt::Class::Accessor::Fast by default, to stop
536 breaking other packages which use Class::Accessor::Fast
537 - Remove unused action_container_class attribute from
539 - Replace {_body} instance access with calls to _body accessors
540 - Add backwards compatibility alias methods for private attributes on
541 Catalyst::Dispatcher which used to be public. Needed by
542 Catalyst::Plugin::Server and Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL
543 - Fix return value of $c->req->body, which delegates to the body
544 method on the requests HTTP::Body instance
546 - Fix calling $c->req->body from inside an overridden prepare_action
547 method in a plugin, as used by Catalyst::Plugin::Server
549 - Fix assignment to Catalyst::Dispatcher's preload_dispatch_types and
550 postload_dispatch_types attributes - assigning a list should later
551 return a listref. Fixes Catalyst::Plugin::Server.
553 - Change streaming test to serve itself rather than 01use.t, making
554 test sync for engines easier
555 - Refactor capturing of $app from Catalyst::Controller into
556 Catalyst::Component::ApplicationAttribute for easier reuse in other
558 - Make the test suites YAML dependency optional
559 - Make debug output show class name for the engine and dispatcher
560 rather than the stringified ref.
561 - Make MyApp immutable at the end of the scope after the setup
562 method is called, fixing issues with plugins which have their
563 own new methods by inlining a constructor on MyApp

565 - Fix bug causing Catalyst::Request::Upload's basename method
567 - Test for this (Carl Franks)
568 - Fix loading of classes which do not define any symbols to not
569 die, as it didn't in 5.70
