1 # This file documents the revision history for Perl extension Catalyst.
4 - Remove the erroneous --detach option from Catalyst::Script::FastCGI
5 - --daemon option to Catalyst::Script::FastCGI is fixed.
7 5.80016 2009-12-11 23:23:33
11 - Fix slurping a file to work correctly with binary on Win32 in the
12 encoding test controller.
14 Bug fixes in the new scripts (for applications which have been upgraded):
16 - Allow --restartdirectory as an option for the Server script, for
17 backwards compatibility. (Dave Rolsky)
18 - The --host option for the server script defaulted to localhost, rather
19 than listening on all interfaces, which was the previous default. (Dave
21 - Restore -p option for pid file in the FastCGI server script.
22 - Fix the script environment variables MYAPP_PORT and MYAPP_RELOAD RT#52604
23 - Fix aliasing applications under non-root paths with mod_rewrite in
24 some apache versions where %ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} is set to the real name of
25 the script, by using $ENV{REDIRECT_URL} which contains the non-rewritten
27 - Fix usage display when myapp_create.pl is run with no arguments. RT#52630
31 - The __MOP__ hash element is suppressed from being dumped fully
32 (and instead stringified) when dumping the error screen to be
33 less packed with information of no use.
37 - Fix Pod nits (RT#52370)
39 5.80015 2009-12-02 15:13:54
41 - Fix bug in Catalyst::Engine which would cause a request parsing to end
42 prematurely in the hypothetical case where calling $engine->read returned
43 the single character '0'.
44 - Fix failing tests when combined with new HTTP::Request::AsCGI
47 - Improved documentation on read and read_chunk methods in Catalyst::Engine.
48 - Fix reversal of SCRIPT_NAME and PATH_INFO in previously correct nginx
49 FastCGI documentation introduced in _02.
51 5.80014_02 2009-12-01 00:55:23
53 - Fix reporting the wrong Content-Length if the response body is an
54 upgraded string. Strings mean the same thing whether or not they are
55 upgraded, may get upgraded even after they are encoded, and will
56 produce the same output either way, but bytes::length returns too big
57 values for upgraded strings containing characters >127
58 - Fix t/live_fork.t with bleadperl (RT#52100)
59 - Set $ENV{PATH_INFO} from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} combined with
60 $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} if possible. This is many web servers always fully
61 decode PATH_INFO including URI reserved characters. This allows us to
62 tell foo%2cbar from foo%252cbar, and fixes issues with %2F in paths
63 being incorrectly decoded, resulting in too many path parts (rather
64 than 1 path part containing a /, on some web servers (at least nginx).
66 - Require new HTTP::Request::AsCGI so that it fully decodes $ENV{PATH_INFO}
67 in non CGI contexts. (RT#50082)
69 Refactoring / cleanups:
70 - NoTabs and Pod tests moved to t/author so that they're not run
71 (and then skipped) normally.
74 - Fix Pod nits in Catalyst::Response (RT#51818)
76 5.80014_01 2009-11-22 20:01:23
79 - Filehandle now forced to binmode in CGI and FastCGI engines. This appears
80 to correct some UTF-8 issues, but may break people's code which relies
83 Refactoring / cleanups:
84 - Plugins which inherit from Catalyst::Controller or Catalyst::Component
85 are deprecated and now issue warnings.
87 5.80014 2009-11-21 02:51:14
90 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.17. This in turn requires new
91 MooseX::Types to stop warnings in Moose 0.91, and correctly supports
92 role combination of roles containing attributed methods.
93 - Catalyst::Dispatcher::dispatch_types no longer throws deprecated warnings
94 as there is no recommended alternative.
95 - Improved the suggested fix warning when component resolution uses regex
96 fallback for fully qualified component names.
97 - Catalyst::Test::local_request sets ->request on the response.
98 - Log flush moved to the end of setup so that roles and plugins which
99 hook setup_finalize can log things and have them appear in application
100 startup, rather than with the first hit.
101 - Require a newer version of LWP to avoid failing tests.
102 - Stop warnings when actions are forwarded to during dispatch.
103 - Remove warnings for using Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_types as this is a
104 valid method to publicly call on the dispatcher.
105 - Args ($c->request->args) and CaptureArgs ($c->request->captrues)
106 passed to $c->uri_for with an action object ($c->action) will now
107 correctly round-trip when args or captures contain / as it is now
108 correctly uri encoded to %2F.
111 - Document no-args call to $c->uri_for.
112 - Document all top level application configuration parameters.
113 - Clarify how to fix actions in your application class (which is
114 deprecated and causes warnings).
115 - Pod fixes for ContextClosure.
116 - Fix documentation for go/visit to reference captures and arguments
117 in the correct order.
118 - Update $c->forward and $c->state documentation to address scalar
120 - Pod fix in Catalyst::Request (RT#51490)
121 - Pod fixes to refer to ::Controller:: rather than ::C:: as the latter
122 is deprecated (RT#51489)
125 - Added disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config option to
126 switch off (deprecated) regex fallback for component resolution.
127 - Added an nginx-specific behavior to the FastCGI engine to allow
128 proper PATH_INFO and SCRIPT_NAME processing for non-root applications
129 - Enable Catalyst::Utils::home() to find home within Dist::Zilla built
131 - Added the Catalyst::Exception::Interface role defining the interface
132 exception classes need to implement.
133 - Added Catalyst::Exception::Basic as a basic implementation of
134 Catalyst::Exception::Interface and made the existing exception classes
137 Refactoring / cleanups:
138 - Remove documentation for the case_sensitive setting
139 - Warning is now emitted at application startup if the case_sensitive
140 setting is turned on. This setting is not used by anyone, not
141 believed to be useful and adds unnecessary complexity to controllers
142 and the dispatcher. If you are using this setting and have good reasons
143 why it should stay then you need to be shouting, now.
144 - Writing to $c->req->body now fails as doing this never makes sense.
146 5.80013 2009-09-17 11:07:04
149 - Preserve immutable_options when temporarily making a class mutable in
150 Catalyst::ClassData as this is needed by new Class::MOP.
151 This could have potentially caused issues when using the deprecated runtime
152 plugins feature in an application with plugins which define their own new
154 - Require new Moose version and new versions of various dependencies
155 to avoid warnings from newest Moose release.
156 - Fix go / visit expecting captures and arguments in reverse order.
159 - Rework the $c->go documentation to make it more clear.
160 - Additional documentation in Catalyst::Upgrading covering more deprecation
163 Refactoring / cleanups:
164 - Action methods in the application class are deprecated and applications
165 using them will now generate a warning at startup.
166 - The -short option has been removed from catalyst.pl, stopping new
167 applications from being generated using the ::[MVC]:: naming scheme as
168 this is deprecated and generates warnings. RT#49771
170 5.80012 2009-09-09 19:09:09
173 - Fix t/optional_http-server.t test.
174 - Fix t/optional_http-server-restart.t test.
175 - Fix duplicate components being loaded at setup time, each component is
176 now loaded at most once + tests.
177 - Fix backward compatibility - hash key configured actions are stored in
178 is returned to 'actions'.
179 - Fix get_action_methods returning duplicate methods when a method is both
180 decorated with method attributes and set as an action in config.
182 Refactoring / cleanups:
183 - Reduce minimum supported perl version from 5.8.6 to 5.8.4 as there are
184 many people still running/testing this version with no known issues.
187 - Make the optional_http_server.t test an author only test which must be
188 run by authors to stop it being broken again.
189 - Fix recursion warnings in the test suites.
191 5.80011 2009-08-23 13:48:15
194 - Remove leftovers of the restarter engine. The removed code caused test
195 failures, which weren't apparent for anyone still having an old version
198 5.80010 2009-08-21 23:32:15
201 - Fix and add tests for a regression introduced by 5.80008.
202 Catalyst::Engine is now able to send out data from filehandles larger
203 than the default chunksize of 64k again.
205 5.80009 2009-08-21 22:21:08
208 - Fix and add tests for generating inner packages inside the COMPONENT
209 method, and those packages being correctly registered as components.
210 This fixes Catalyst::Model::DBIC among others.
212 5.80008 2009-08-21 17:47:30
215 - Fix replace_constructor warning to actually work if you make your
216 application class immutable without that option.
217 - Depend on Module::Pluggable 3.9 to prevent a bug wherein components
218 in inner packages might not be registered. This especially affected
220 - Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI - relax the check for versions of Microsoft
221 IIS. Provides compatibility with Windows 2008 R2 as well as
222 (hopefully) future versions.
223 - In tests which depend on the values of environment variables,
224 localise the environment, then delete only relevant environment
226 - Fix issue with Engine::HTTP not sending headers properly in some cases
228 - Make Catalyst::Engine write at least once when finalizing the response
229 body from a filehandle, even if the write is empty. This avoids fail
230 when trying to send out an empty response body from a filehandle.
231 - Catalyst::Engine::HTTP - Accept a fully qualified absolute URI in the
232 Request-URI of the Request-Line
234 Refactoring / cleanups:
235 - Deleted the Restarter engine and its Watcher code. Use the
236 new Catalyst::Restarter in a recent Catalyst::Devel instead.
237 - New unit test for Catalyst::Action 'unit_core_action.t'
238 - Bump minimum supported perl version from 5.8.1 to 5.8.6 as there are
239 known issues with 5.8.3.
240 - Debug output uses dynamic column sizing to create more readable output
241 when using a larger $ENV{COLUMNS} setting. (groditi)
244 - Added private_path method for Catalyst::Action
245 - Allow uri_for($controller_instance) which will produce a URI
246 for the controller namespace
247 - Break setup_components into two more parts: locate_components and
248 expand_component_module (rjbs)
249 - Allow Components to return anon classed from their COMPONENT method
250 correctly, and have action registration work on Controllers returned
251 as such by adding a catalyst_component_name accessor for all components
252 which returns the component instance's name to be used when building
254 - Adding X-Forwarded-Port to allow the frontend proxy to dictate the
255 frontend port (jshirley)
256 - Added Catalyst::Stats->created accessor for the time at the start of
260 - Fix POD to refer to ->config(key => $val), rather than
261 ->config->{key} = $val, as the latter form is deprecated.
262 - Clearer docs for the 'uri_for' method.
263 - Fix POD refering to CGI::Cookie. We're using CGI::Simple::Cookie.
266 5.80007 2009-06-30 23:54:34
269 - Don't mangle query parameters passed to uri_for
270 - Tests for this (Byron Young + Amir Sadoughi)
271 - Inherited controller methods can now be specified in
273 - Assigning an undef response body no longer produces warnings
274 - Fix C3 incompatibility bug caused if you use Moose in MyApp.pm and
275 add Catalyst to the right hand side of this in @ISA.
276 - Make Catalyst.pm implement the Component::ApplicationAttribute
277 interface so defining actions in MyApp.pm works again, if the
278 actions have attributes that cause $self->_application to be used
282 - Add optional second argument to uri_with which appends to existing
283 params rather than replacing them. (foo=1 becomes foo=1&foo=2 when
284 uri_with({ foo => 2 }, { mode => 'append' }) is called on a foo=1
287 5.80006 2009-06-29 23:37:47
290 - Revert change to URL encode things passed into $c->uri_for
291 Args and CaptureArgs as this causes breakage to pre-existing
293 - Remove use of Test::MockObject as it doesn't install from CPAN
294 in some environments.
295 - Remove use of dclone to deep copy configs and replace with
296 Catalyst::Utils::merge_hashes which has the same effect, of
297 ensuring child classes don't inherit their parent's config,
298 except works correctly with closures.
299 - Add Class::C3::reinitialize into Catalyst::Test to avoid weird
300 bugs in ctx_request (bokutin in RT#46459)
301 - Fix issues with _parse_PathPrefix_attr method in Catalyst::Controller
303 - Fix bugs with action sorting:
304 - Path actions sorted so that the most specific wins.
305 - Action methods named default and index fixed.
308 - Use ~ as prefix for plugins or action classes which are located in
309 MyApp::Plugin / MyApp::Action (mo)
310 - Controller methods without attributes are now considered actions if
311 they are specified in config->{action(s)} (mo)
312 - Add Catalyst::Component::ContextClosure as an easy way to create code
313 references, that close over the context, without creating leaks.
315 Refactoring / cleanups:
316 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Exception*.
317 - Turn Catalyst::Exception into an actual class and make the throw
318 method create instances of it. They can still be used as normal
319 strings, as before, as they are overloaded to stringify to their
321 - Add a rethrow method to Catalyst::Exception.
322 - Add Catalyst::Exception::Detach and ::Go, and refactor detach() and
323 go() to use them instead of magic, global strings.
325 - Clean up getting metaclass instance and making app class immutable
326 again in Catalyst::Test
328 5.80005 2009-06-06 14:40:00
331 - Arguments ($c->req->args) in Chained dispatch are now automatically
332 URL decoded to be consistent with Local/Path dispatch
335 - Clarify correct techniques for Moose controllers (domm)
338 - Further change pushing 'env' attribute down into Catalyst::Engine
339 to make $c->engine->env work in all cases (kmx)
340 - Also fix $c->engine->env in Catalyst::Test tests (kmx)
342 - Fix Catalyst failing to start if any plugin changed $_ whilst
345 - Be stricter about arguments to Args attributes for Chained actions,
346 so that they blow up on load instead of causing undefined behavior
349 - Prefer Path actions with a smaller (or set) number of Args (caelum)
350 Bug reported here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/931653/catalyst-action-that-matches-a-single-file-in-the-root-directory/933181#933181
354 - Add $c->req->remote_user to disambiguate from $c->req->user (dwc)
355 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.12 so that action methods
356 (with attributes) can be used in / composed from Moose roles.
357 - Allow the generation of cookies with the HTTPOnly flag set
358 in Catalyst::Engine (kmx)
360 5.80004 2009-05-18 17:03:23
361 - Rename the actions attribute in Catalyt::Controller to
362 _controller_actions to avoid name clashes with application
363 controller naming. (random)
364 - Test for using Moose in components which have a non-Moose base class
365 Fixed by 349cda in Moose 0.78
366 - Fix deprecation message for Catalyst::Dispatcher to refer
367 to the class actually calling the deprecated method. RT#45741
368 - Clarify limitations of $request->base and $request->secure.
370 - Add 'use Catalyst' to documentation for a Moose MyApp class as
372 - Fix so that / (and other special characters) are URL encoded when
373 passed into $c->uri_for as Args/CaptureArgs
374 - Fix development server so that $c->engine->env returns the correct
376 - Require Moose 0.78 to fix metaclass incompatibility issues
377 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.10 and use
378 Moose::Meta::Class->initialize rather than Moose->init_meta to fix
379 bugs related to having a 'meta' method in your controller
380 - Fix cases where your application failing to compile could cause perl
381 to report 'Unknown Error'
382 - Support adding Moose::Roles to the plugin list. These are applied to
383 MyApp after plugins have been pushed onto @ISA
384 - Fix calling $c->req->parameters as the first thing you do when
385 parse_on_demand is on
387 5.80003 2009-04-29 16:23:53
388 - Various POD tweaks. (hdp, dandv)
389 - Fix formatting error in the regex fallback warning.
390 - Convert the dispatcher's and restarter engine's BUILD method to
391 attribute builders to not override the BUILD method from
392 MooseX::Emulate::Class::Accessor::Fast.
393 - Fix classes without metaclasses restarting, when not using
394 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange
395 - Fix the unattached chain debug table for endpoints with no
397 - Turn of test aggregation by default. Only aggregate if the
398 AGGREGATE_TESTS environment variable is set and a recent
399 Test::Aggregate is available.
400 - Bump to MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.09, to gain the
401 get_nearest_methods_with_attributes method allowing methods without
402 attributes in a subclass to override those with attributes in a
403 superclass. This fixes CatalystX::CRUD's method of overriding /
404 disabling functionality from base controllers.
405 - Bump HTTP::Request::AsCGI dependency to avoid broken version
406 - Bump Moose dependency to latest version to fix metaclass
407 incompatibility issues in some cases.

411 - Fixes for uri_for_action when using Catalyst::DispatchType::Regex
412 + tests from RT#39369 (norbi)
413 - Partial rewrite and reoganisation of the C3 docs in
414 Catalyst::Upgrading based on feedback from kiffin
415 - If you make your application class immutable and turn off
416 constructor inlining, Catalyst will die and tell you pass
417 the (replace_constructor => 1) argument to
418 make_immutable. (Dave Rolsky)
420 5.80002 2009-04-22 01:28:36
421 - Fix CATALYST_DEBUG and MYAPP_DEBUG environment variables
422 turning debuging on if defined, rather than if set.
423 They now force debugging on or off, taking precedence over
424 configuration in your application.
426 - pass replace_constructor to the immutable call to ensure
427 applications get a Moose constructor rather than a C::A one
428 - Fix issues with restarting the application class due to C3 failures
430 - Work around issues in Moose with initialization order of multiple
431 levels of non-Moose classes inheriting from a Moose class
433 - Add backwards compatibility method for Catalyst::Log->body, which
434 has been made private
435 - Fix so that calling $c->req->parameters(undef) does not flatten
436 the request parameters with undef + test
437 - Fix so that width of table of unattached actions for debugging
438 ::DispatchType::Chained varies according to your terminal width
440 - Fix warning message about linearized @ISA in Catalyst::Component
442 - Require MX::MethodAttributes 0.06 to avoid issues with saying
443 use base 'Catalyst::Controller'; use Moose; losing actions
444 - Fix all of's typos in ::Upgrading and ::Delta (hobbs)
446 5.80001 2009-04-18 22:18
447 - Don't inline the constructor for Catalyst::Log to avoid a
448 warning on recent Moose versions.
449 - Add delta documentation
450 - Clean up recursion errors
451 - Extra cross links in dispatch types POD (Ian Wells)
452 - Test uri_with clears query params when they are set to undef
454 - Complain about old Catalyst::Devel versions which generated
455 ->setup(qw/-Debug... etc. as this is not recommended
457 5.8000_07 2009-04-12 13:37
458 - Add the Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_type method (ash)
459 - Throw an exception rather than loading an app if an action
460 tries to chain to itself
462 - Change the $c->visit and $c->go methods to optionally take
463 CaptureArgs, making them useful to call ActionChains with
464 - Tests for this (radek)
465 - Fix _invoke_as_component method to find the proper action instance
466 for dispatchable actions so that ->visit or ->going to ActionChains
467 with qw/Class::Name method_name/ works correctly
468 - Tests for this (radek)
469 - Added Catalyst::Test::ctx_request to be able to inspect
470 the context object after a request is made (Jos Boumans)
471 - debug() POD rewrite (jhannah)
472 - Change the warning when you have conflicting components to
474 - Move NEXT use and testing deprecated features out to its own
475 test application so that the main TestApp isn't polluted with
477 - Add a warning for the old ::[MVC]:: style naming scheme
479 - Kill Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT warnings for the Catalyst:: namespace
480 in production versions
481 - Tidy up Catalyst::ClassData to ensure that all components get
482 the correct metaclass
483 - Make MyApp.pm restartable by unsetting setup_finished in
484 the restarter process
485 - Non-naive implementation of making mutable on restart using
486 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange if installed
488 - Naive implementation of making all components mutable in the
489 forked restart watcher process so native Moose apps using
490 immutable restart correctly.
492 - Bump Moose dependency to 0.70 so that we avoid nasty surprises
493 with is_class_loaded and perl 5.80 when you Moosify MyApp.pm
494 - Clarify that request arguments aren't unescaped automatically
495 (Simon Bertrang) (Closes RT#41153)
496 - Don't require C3 for the MRO test
497 - Bump MX::Emulate::CAF prereq to support list assignment
498 - Remove useless column in chained action debug table.
499 - namespace::clean related cleanups
500 - Import related cleanups and consistency fixes
501 - Fix test suite TestApp /dump/env action
502 - Add $res->code as alias for $res->status
503 - Make Catalyst::ClassData compatible with the latest Class::MOP::Class
504 changes. Also depend on the latest Class::MOP.
505 - Add $c->uri_for_action method.
506 - Don't stringify the meta method. Use its name instead.
507 - Use MooseX::MethodAttributes::Inheritable to contain action
508 attributes. This means that attributes are now represented in the MOP,
509 allowing method modifiers on actions to work as expected.
510 - Provide a reasonable API in Catalyst::Controller for working with
511 and registering actions, allowing a controller sub-class to replace
512 subroutine attributes for action declerations with an alternate
514 - Instantiate correct sub-class of Moose::Meta::Class for non-Moose
515 components where Catalyst forces the creation of a metaclass instance.
516 This is more correct, and avoids metaclass incompatibility in complex
519 - Use of deprecated Catalyst::Base now warns.
522 5.8000_06 2009-02-04 21:00

548 - Fixes for FastCGI with IIS 6.0 (janus)
549 - Passing request method exported by Catalyst::Test an extra
550 parameter used to be ignored, but started breaking if the parameter
551 was not a hash in 5.8000_04. Extra parameter is now ignored if
553 - Fix request argumentss getting corrupted if you override the
554 dispatcher and call an action which detaches (for
555 Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL)
556 - Fix calling use Catalyst::Test 'MyApp' 'foo' which used to work,
557 but stopped as the 2nd parameter can be an options hash now
558 - Bump Moose dependency to fix make_immutable bug
559 - Use compile time extends in Catalyst::Controller
560 - Make Catalyst::Request::uploads attribute non-lazy, to fix
561 test for Catalyst-Engine-Apache
562 - Bump version of MooseX::Emulate::Class::Accessor::Fast
563 - Stop using MooseX::Adopt::Class::Accessor::Fast by default, to stop
564 breaking other packages which use Class::Accessor::Fast
565 - Remove unused action_container_class attribute from
567 - Replace {_body} instance access with calls to _body accessors
568 - Add backwards compatibility alias methods for private attributes on
569 Catalyst::Dispatcher which used to be public. Needed by
570 Catalyst::Plugin::Server and Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL
571 - Fix return value of $c->req->body, which delegates to the body
