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.
19 - Allow passing additional arguments to action constructors.
21 5.80018 2010-01-12 22:24:20
24 - Call ->canonical on URI derived from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} to get
25 paths correctly decoded. This bug was previously hidden by a bug
26 in HTTP::Request::AsCGI.
29 - Clarify that uri_for_action works on private paths, with example.
30 - Clarify documentation about debug
33 - Saying use Catalyst::Test; (without an application name or () to stop
34 the importer running is now deprecated and will issue a warning.
35 You should be saying use Catalyst::Test ();
37 5.80017 2010-01-10 02:27:29
40 - Fix docs for ->forward method when passed a class name - this should
41 be a component name (e.g. View::HTML, not a full class name, like
45 - --daemon and -d options to Catalyst::Script::FastCGI are fixed.
46 - Fix the debug dump for applications which use Catalyst::Plugin::Session
48 - Fix regression in the case where mod_rewrite is being used to rewrite
49 requests into a path below your application base introduced with the
50 %2F related fixes in 5.80014_02.
51 - Do not crash on SIGHUP if Catalyst::Engine::HTTP->run is not passed the
52 argv key in the options hash.
53 - Correctly pass the arguments to Catalyst::Script::Server through to
54 Catalyst::Engine::HTTP->run so that the server can restart itself
55 with the correct options on SIGHUP.
56 - Require new MooseX::MethodAttributes to be compatible with Moose
58 - Require new MooseX::Role::WithOverloading to be compatible with Moose
62 - Stop suppressing warnings from Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT now that most plugins
63 have been updated to not use NEXT. If you get warnings then please upgrade
64 your components or log a bug with the component author if an upgrade is
65 not available. The Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT documentation contains information
66 about how to suppress the warnings in your application if you need to.
68 5.80016 2009-12-11 23:23:33
72 - Fix slurping a file to work correctly with binary on Win32 in the
73 encoding test controller.
75 Bug fixes in the new scripts (for applications which have been upgraded):
77 - Allow --restartdirectory as an option for the Server script, for
78 backwards compatibility. (Dave Rolsky)
79 - The --host option for the server script defaulted to localhost, rather
80 than listening on all interfaces, which was the previous default. (Dave
82 - Restore -p option for pid file in the FastCGI server script.
83 - Fix the script environment variables MYAPP_PORT and MYAPP_RELOAD RT#52604
84 - Fix aliasing applications under non-root paths with mod_rewrite in
85 some apache versions where %ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} is set to the real name of
86 the script, by using $ENV{REDIRECT_URL} which contains the non-rewritten
88 - Fix usage display when myapp_create.pl is run with no arguments. RT#52630
92 - The __MOP__ hash element is suppressed from being dumped fully
93 (and instead stringified) when dumping the error screen to be
94 less packed with information of no use.
98 - Fix Pod nits (RT#52370)
100 5.80015 2009-12-02 15:13:54
102 - Fix bug in Catalyst::Engine which would cause a request parsing to end
103 prematurely in the hypothetical case where calling $engine->read returned
104 the single character '0'.
105 - Fix failing tests when combined with new HTTP::Request::AsCGI
108 - Improved documentation on read and read_chunk methods in Catalyst::Engine.
109 - Fix reversal of SCRIPT_NAME and PATH_INFO in previously correct nginx
110 FastCGI documentation introduced in _02.
112 5.80014_02 2009-12-01 00:55:23
114 - Fix reporting the wrong Content-Length if the response body is an
115 upgraded string. Strings mean the same thing whether or not they are
116 upgraded, may get upgraded even after they are encoded, and will
117 produce the same output either way, but bytes::length returns too big
118 values for upgraded strings containing characters >127
119 - Fix t/live_fork.t with bleadperl (RT#52100)
120 - Set $ENV{PATH_INFO} from $ENV{REQUEST_URI} combined with
121 $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} if possible. This is many web servers always fully
122 decode PATH_INFO including URI reserved characters. This allows us to
123 tell foo%2cbar from foo%252cbar, and fixes issues with %2F in paths
124 being incorrectly decoded, resulting in too many path parts (rather
125 than 1 path part containing a /, on some web servers (at least nginx).
127 - Require new HTTP::Request::AsCGI so that it fully decodes $ENV{PATH_INFO}
128 in non CGI contexts. (RT#50082)
130 Refactoring / cleanups:
131 - NoTabs and Pod tests moved to t/author so that they're not run
132 (and then skipped) normally.
135 - Fix Pod nits in Catalyst::Response (RT#51818)
137 5.80014_01 2009-11-22 20:01:23
140 - Filehandle now forced to binmode in CGI and FastCGI engines. This appears
141 to correct some UTF-8 issues, but may break people's code which relies
142 on the old behaviour.
144 Refactoring / cleanups:
145 - Plugins which inherit from Catalyst::Controller or Catalyst::Component
146 are deprecated and now issue warnings.
148 5.80014 2009-11-21 02:51:14
151 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.17. This in turn requires new
152 MooseX::Types to stop warnings in Moose 0.91, and correctly supports
153 role combination of roles containing attributed methods.
154 - Catalyst::Dispatcher::dispatch_types no longer throws deprecated warnings
155 as there is no recommended alternative.
156 - Improved the suggested fix warning when component resolution uses regex
157 fallback for fully qualified component names.
158 - Catalyst::Test::local_request sets ->request on the response.
159 - Log flush moved to the end of setup so that roles and plugins which
160 hook setup_finalize can log things and have them appear in application
161 startup, rather than with the first hit.
162 - Require a newer version of LWP to avoid failing tests.
163 - Stop warnings when actions are forwarded to during dispatch.
164 - Remove warnings for using Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_types as this is a
165 valid method to publicly call on the dispatcher.
166 - Args ($c->request->args) and CaptureArgs ($c->request->captrues)
167 passed to $c->uri_for with an action object ($c->action) will now
168 correctly round-trip when args or captures contain / as it is now
169 correctly uri encoded to %2F.
172 - Document no-args call to $c->uri_for.
173 - Document all top level application configuration parameters.
174 - Clarify how to fix actions in your application class (which is
175 deprecated and causes warnings).
176 - Pod fixes for ContextClosure.
177 - Fix documentation for go/visit to reference captures and arguments
178 in the correct order.
179 - Update $c->forward and $c->state documentation to address scalar
181 - Pod fix in Catalyst::Request (RT#51490)
182 - Pod fixes to refer to ::Controller:: rather than ::C:: as the latter
183 is deprecated (RT#51489)
186 - Added disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback config option to
187 switch off (deprecated) regex fallback for component resolution.
188 - Added an nginx-specific behavior to the FastCGI engine to allow
189 proper PATH_INFO and SCRIPT_NAME processing for non-root applications
190 - Enable Catalyst::Utils::home() to find home within Dist::Zilla built
192 - Added the Catalyst::Exception::Interface role defining the interface
193 exception classes need to implement.
194 - Added Catalyst::Exception::Basic as a basic implementation of
195 Catalyst::Exception::Interface and made the existing exception classes
198 Refactoring / cleanups:
199 - Remove documentation for the case_sensitive setting
200 - Warning is now emitted at application startup if the case_sensitive
201 setting is turned on. This setting is not used by anyone, not
202 believed to be useful and adds unnecessary complexity to controllers
203 and the dispatcher. If you are using this setting and have good reasons
204 why it should stay then you need to be shouting, now.
205 - Writing to $c->req->body now fails as doing this never makes sense.
207 5.80013 2009-09-17 11:07:04
210 - Preserve immutable_options when temporarily making a class mutable in
211 Catalyst::ClassData as this is needed by new Class::MOP.
212 This could have potentially caused issues when using the deprecated runtime
213 plugins feature in an application with plugins which define their own new
215 - Require new Moose version and new versions of various dependencies
216 to avoid warnings from newest Moose release.
217 - Fix go / visit expecting captures and arguments in reverse order.
220 - Rework the $c->go documentation to make it more clear.
221 - Additional documentation in Catalyst::Upgrading covering more deprecation
224 Refactoring / cleanups:
225 - Action methods in the application class are deprecated and applications
226 using them will now generate a warning at startup.
227 - The -short option has been removed from catalyst.pl, stopping new
228 applications from being generated using the ::[MVC]:: naming scheme as
229 this is deprecated and generates warnings. RT#49771
231 5.80012 2009-09-09 19:09:09
234 - Fix t/optional_http-server.t test.
235 - Fix t/optional_http-server-restart.t test.
236 - Fix duplicate components being loaded at setup time, each component is
237 now loaded at most once + tests.
238 - Fix backward compatibility - hash key configured actions are stored in
239 is returned to 'actions'.
240 - Fix get_action_methods returning duplicate methods when a method is both
241 decorated with method attributes and set as an action in config.
243 Refactoring / cleanups:
244 - Reduce minimum supported perl version from 5.8.6 to 5.8.4 as there are
245 many people still running/testing this version with no known issues.
248 - Make the optional_http_server.t test an author only test which must be
249 run by authors to stop it being broken again.
250 - Fix recursion warnings in the test suites.
252 5.80011 2009-08-23 13:48:15
255 - Remove leftovers of the restarter engine. The removed code caused test
256 failures, which weren't apparent for anyone still having an old version
259 5.80010 2009-08-21 23:32:15
262 - Fix and add tests for a regression introduced by 5.80008.
263 Catalyst::Engine is now able to send out data from filehandles larger
264 than the default chunksize of 64k again.
266 5.80009 2009-08-21 22:21:08
269 - Fix and add tests for generating inner packages inside the COMPONENT
270 method, and those packages being correctly registered as components.
271 This fixes Catalyst::Model::DBIC among others.
273 5.80008 2009-08-21 17:47:30
276 - Fix replace_constructor warning to actually work if you make your
277 application class immutable without that option.
278 - Depend on Module::Pluggable 3.9 to prevent a bug wherein components
279 in inner packages might not be registered. This especially affected
281 - Catalyst::Engine::FastCGI - relax the check for versions of Microsoft
282 IIS. Provides compatibility with Windows 2008 R2 as well as
283 (hopefully) future versions.
284 - In tests which depend on the values of environment variables,
285 localise the environment, then delete only relevant environment
287 - Fix issue with Engine::HTTP not sending headers properly in some cases
289 - Make Catalyst::Engine write at least once when finalizing the response
290 body from a filehandle, even if the write is empty. This avoids fail
291 when trying to send out an empty response body from a filehandle.
292 - Catalyst::Engine::HTTP - Accept a fully qualified absolute URI in the
293 Request-URI of the Request-Line
295 Refactoring / cleanups:
296 - Deleted the Restarter engine and its Watcher code. Use the
297 new Catalyst::Restarter in a recent Catalyst::Devel instead.
298 - New unit test for Catalyst::Action 'unit_core_action.t'
299 - Bump minimum supported perl version from 5.8.1 to 5.8.6 as there are
300 known issues with 5.8.3.
301 - Debug output uses dynamic column sizing to create more readable output
302 when using a larger $ENV{COLUMNS} setting. (groditi)
305 - Added private_path method for Catalyst::Action
306 - Allow uri_for($controller_instance) which will produce a URI
307 for the controller namespace
308 - Break setup_components into two more parts: locate_components and
309 expand_component_module (rjbs)
310 - Allow Components to return anon classed from their COMPONENT method
311 correctly, and have action registration work on Controllers returned
312 as such by adding a catalyst_component_name accessor for all components
313 which returns the component instance's name to be used when building
315 - Adding X-Forwarded-Port to allow the frontend proxy to dictate the
316 frontend port (jshirley)
317 - Added Catalyst::Stats->created accessor for the time at the start of
321 - Fix POD to refer to ->config(key => $val), rather than
322 ->config->{key} = $val, as the latter form is deprecated.
323 - Clearer docs for the 'uri_for' method.
324 - Fix POD refering to CGI::Cookie. We're using CGI::Simple::Cookie.
327 5.80007 2009-06-30 23:54:34
330 - Don't mangle query parameters passed to uri_for
331 - Tests for this (Byron Young + Amir Sadoughi)
332 - Inherited controller methods can now be specified in
334 - Assigning an undef response body no longer produces warnings
335 - Fix C3 incompatibility bug caused if you use Moose in MyApp.pm and
336 add Catalyst to the right hand side of this in @ISA.
337 - Make Catalyst.pm implement the Component::ApplicationAttribute
338 interface so defining actions in MyApp.pm works again, if the
339 actions have attributes that cause $self->_application to be used
343 - Add optional second argument to uri_with which appends to existing
344 params rather than replacing them. (foo=1 becomes foo=1&foo=2 when
345 uri_with({ foo => 2 }, { mode => 'append' }) is called on a foo=1
348 5.80006 2009-06-29 23:37:47
351 - Revert change to URL encode things passed into $c->uri_for
352 Args and CaptureArgs as this causes breakage to pre-existing
354 - Remove use of Test::MockObject as it doesn't install from CPAN
355 in some environments.
356 - Remove use of dclone to deep copy configs and replace with
357 Catalyst::Utils::merge_hashes which has the same effect, of
358 ensuring child classes don't inherit their parent's config,
359 except works correctly with closures.
360 - Add Class::C3::reinitialize into Catalyst::Test to avoid weird
361 bugs in ctx_request (bokutin in RT#46459)
362 - Fix issues with _parse_PathPrefix_attr method in Catalyst::Controller
364 - Fix bugs with action sorting:
365 - Path actions sorted so that the most specific wins.
366 - Action methods named default and index fixed.
369 - Use ~ as prefix for plugins or action classes which are located in
370 MyApp::Plugin / MyApp::Action (mo)
371 - Controller methods without attributes are now considered actions if
372 they are specified in config->{action(s)} (mo)
373 - Add Catalyst::Component::ContextClosure as an easy way to create code
374 references, that close over the context, without creating leaks.
376 Refactoring / cleanups:
377 - Clean namespaces in Catalyst::Exception*.
378 - Turn Catalyst::Exception into an actual class and make the throw
379 method create instances of it. They can still be used as normal
380 strings, as before, as they are overloaded to stringify to their
382 - Add a rethrow method to Catalyst::Exception.
383 - Add Catalyst::Exception::Detach and ::Go, and refactor detach() and
384 go() to use them instead of magic, global strings.
386 - Clean up getting metaclass instance and making app class immutable
387 again in Catalyst::Test
389 5.80005 2009-06-06 14:40:00
392 - Arguments ($c->req->args) in Chained dispatch are now automatically
393 URL decoded to be consistent with Local/Path dispatch
396 - Clarify correct techniques for Moose controllers (domm)
399 - Further change pushing 'env' attribute down into Catalyst::Engine
400 to make $c->engine->env work in all cases (kmx)
401 - Also fix $c->engine->env in Catalyst::Test tests (kmx)
403 - Fix Catalyst failing to start if any plugin changed $_ whilst
406 - Be stricter about arguments to Args attributes for Chained actions,
407 so that they blow up on load instead of causing undefined behavior
410 - Prefer Path actions with a smaller (or set) number of Args (caelum)
411 Bug reported here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/931653/catalyst-action-that-matches-a-single-file-in-the-root-directory/933181#933181
415 - Add $c->req->remote_user to disambiguate from $c->req->user (dwc)
416 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.12 so that action methods
417 (with attributes) can be used in / composed from Moose roles.
418 - Allow the generation of cookies with the HTTPOnly flag set
419 in Catalyst::Engine (kmx)
421 5.80004 2009-05-18 17:03:23
422 - Rename the actions attribute in Catalyt::Controller to
423 _controller_actions to avoid name clashes with application
424 controller naming. (random)
425 - Test for using Moose in components which have a non-Moose base class
426 Fixed by 349cda in Moose 0.78
427 - Fix deprecation message for Catalyst::Dispatcher to refer
428 to the class actually calling the deprecated method. RT#45741
429 - Clarify limitations of $request->base and $request->secure.
431 - Add 'use Catalyst' to documentation for a Moose MyApp class as
433 - Fix so that / (and other special characters) are URL encoded when
434 passed into $c->uri_for as Args/CaptureArgs
435 - Fix development server so that $c->engine->env returns the correct
437 - Require Moose 0.78 to fix metaclass incompatibility issues
438 - Require MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.10 and use
439 Moose::Meta::Class->initialize rather than Moose->init_meta to fix
440 bugs related to having a 'meta' method in your controller
441 - Fix cases where your application failing to compile could cause perl
442 to report 'Unknown Error'
443 - Support adding Moose::Roles to the plugin list. These are applied to
444 MyApp after plugins have been pushed onto @ISA
445 - Fix calling $c->req->parameters as the first thing you do when
446 parse_on_demand is on
448 5.80003 2009-04-29 16:23:53
449 - Various POD tweaks. (hdp, dandv)
450 - Fix formatting error in the regex fallback warning.
451 - Convert the dispatcher's and restarter engine's BUILD method to
452 attribute builders to not override the BUILD method from
453 MooseX::Emulate::Class::Accessor::Fast.
454 - Fix classes without metaclasses restarting, when not using
455 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange
456 - Fix the unattached chain debug table for endpoints with no
458 - Turn off test aggregation by default. Only aggregate if the
459 AGGREGATE_TESTS environment variable is set and a recent
460 Test::Aggregate is available.
461 - Bump to MooseX::MethodAttributes 0.09, to gain the
462 get_nearest_methods_with_attributes method allowing methods without
463 attributes in a subclass to override those with attributes in a
464 superclass. This fixes CatalystX::CRUD's method of overriding /
465 disabling functionality from base controllers.
466 - Bump HTTP::Request::AsCGI dependency to avoid broken version
467 - Bump Moose dependency to latest version to fix metaclass
468 incompatibility issues in some cases.
469 - Additional tests for setup_stats method.
470 - Fix log levels in Catalyst::Log to be properly additive.
471 - Fix RT#43375 by sorting results before testing them
472 - Fixes for uri_for_action when using Catalyst::DispatchType::Regex
473 + tests from RT#39369 (norbi)
474 - Partial rewrite and reoganisation of the C3 docs in
475 Catalyst::Upgrading based on feedback from kiffin
476 - If you make your application class immutable and turn off
477 constructor inlining, Catalyst will die and tell you pass
478 the (replace_constructor => 1) argument to
479 make_immutable. (Dave Rolsky)
481 5.80002 2009-04-22 01:28:36
482 - Fix CATALYST_DEBUG and MYAPP_DEBUG environment variables
483 turning debuging on if defined, rather than if set.
484 They now force debugging on or off, taking precedence over
485 configuration in your application.
487 - pass replace_constructor to the immutable call to ensure
488 applications get a Moose constructor rather than a C::A one
489 - Fix issues with restarting the application class due to C3 failures
491 - Work around issues in Moose with initialization order of multiple
492 levels of non-Moose classes inheriting from a Moose class
494 - Add backwards compatibility method for Catalyst::Log->body, which
495 has been made private
496 - Fix so that calling $c->req->parameters(undef) does not flatten
497 the request parameters with undef + test
498 - Fix so that width of table of unattached actions for debugging
499 ::DispatchType::Chained varies according to your terminal width
501 - Fix warning message about linearized @ISA in Catalyst::Component
503 - Require MX::MethodAttributes 0.06 to avoid issues with saying
504 use base 'Catalyst::Controller'; use Moose; losing actions
505 - Fix all of's typos in ::Upgrading and ::Delta (hobbs)
507 5.80001 2009-04-18 22:18
508 - Don't inline the constructor for Catalyst::Log to avoid a
509 warning on recent Moose versions.
510 - Add delta documentation
511 - Clean up recursion errors
512 - Extra cross links in dispatch types POD (Ian Wells)
513 - Test uri_with clears query params when they are set to undef
515 - Complain about old Catalyst::Devel versions which generated
516 ->setup(qw/-Debug... etc. as this is not recommended
518 5.8000_07 2009-04-12 13:37
519 - Add the Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_type method (ash)
520 - Throw an exception rather than loading an app if an action
521 tries to chain to itself
523 - Change the $c->visit and $c->go methods to optionally take
524 CaptureArgs, making them useful to call ActionChains with
525 - Tests for this (radek)
526 - Fix _invoke_as_component method to find the proper action instance
527 for dispatchable actions so that ->visit or ->going to ActionChains
528 with qw/Class::Name method_name/ works correctly
529 - Tests for this (radek)
530 - Added Catalyst::Test::ctx_request to be able to inspect
531 the context object after a request is made (Jos Boumans)
532 - debug() POD rewrite (jhannah)
533 - Change the warning when you have conflicting components to
535 - Move NEXT use and testing deprecated features out to its own
536 test application so that the main TestApp isn't polluted with
538 - Add a warning for the old ::[MVC]:: style naming scheme
540 - Kill Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT warnings for the Catalyst:: namespace
541 in production versions
542 - Tidy up Catalyst::ClassData to ensure that all components get
543 the correct metaclass
544 - Make MyApp.pm restartable by unsetting setup_finished in
545 the restarter process
546 - Non-naive implementation of making mutable on restart using
547 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange if installed
549 - Naive implementation of making all components mutable in the
550 forked restart watcher process so native Moose apps using
551 immutable restart correctly.
553 - Bump Moose dependency to 0.70 so that we avoid nasty surprises
554 with is_class_loaded and perl 5.80 when you Moosify MyApp.pm
555 - Clarify that request arguments aren't unescaped automatically
556 (Simon Bertrang) (Closes RT#41153)
557 - Don't require C3 for the MRO test
558 - Bump MX::Emulate::CAF prereq to support list assignment
559 - Remove useless column in chained action debug table.
560 - namespace::clean related cleanups
561 - Import related cleanups and consistency fixes
562 - Fix test suite TestApp /dump/env action
563 - Add $res->code as alias for $res->status
564 - Make Catalyst::ClassData compatible with the latest Class::MOP::Class
565 changes. Also depend on the latest Class::MOP.
566 - Add $c->uri_for_action method.
567 - Don't stringify the meta method. Use its name instead.
568 - Use MooseX::MethodAttributes::Inheritable to contain action
569 attributes. This means that attributes are now represented in the MOP,
570 allowing method modifiers on actions to work as expected.
571 - Provide a reasonable API in Catalyst::Controller for working with
572 and registering actions, allowing a controller sub-class to replace
573 subroutine attributes for action declerations with an alternate
575 - Instantiate correct sub-class of Moose::Meta::Class for non-Moose
576 components where Catalyst forces the creation of a metaclass instance.
