-Pending patches:
- - meta test for MX::Emulate::CAF needed by Catalyst::Plugin::Cache::Curried
-
- - Class::Accessor::Chained::Fast test for MX::Emulate::CAF, to fix
- HTML::Widget
-
- - Re-opening packages with MX::Emulate::CAF (for
- Catalyst::Plugin::HashedCookies)
-
-Back-compat investigation / known issues:
-
- - Catalyst::Plugin::Server is still buggered in various ways..
- - Fix TODO tests in t/aggregate/live_engine_request_body.t
-
- - Common engine test failures, look into and get tests into core.
-
- - CatalystX-Imports, Class::MOP doesn't consider anon subs in the symbol
- table as methods, tests + fix, or explanation and documentation?
- (rafl & phaylon)
-
- - Run another round of repository smokes against latest 5.80 trunk, manually
- go through all the things which are broken (t0m).
-
- - Catalyst-Plugin-Cache dies due to mk_accessors('meta')
-
- - Catalyst-Action-REST appears to have real issues, investigate
-
- - Catalyst-Model-Search ditto
-
- - CatalystX-CRUD ditto
-
- - Catalyst-Engine-Apache - Deep recursion on subroutine
- "Catalyst::Action::execute", investigate once all other tests pass
-
- - Catalyst-Plugin-Scheduler
- - Catalyst-Engine-HTTPEngine
- - Catalyst-View-HTML-Template
- - Catalyst-View-XSLT
- - Catalyst-Plugin-Setenv
- - Catalyst-Plugin-RequireSSL - Bullshit 'cannot locate' errors
- Bug in smoke test rig.
-
- - Issues with TWMC not being loaded when it used to be in 5.70
- (Bill Moseley)
-
- - Fix memory leaks (I already tried Devel::Leak::Object, but no joy).
-
- - In 5.70, you can have a component which doesn't inherit from ::Component,
- and has no new method, and it'll do the right thing for you. We just
- ignore that, we should still support that, but warn for/deprecate it so
- it can go for 5.9X...
- This all obviously needs better tests :/
-
-Cleanups:
-
- - Catalyst-Plugin-Authorization-ACL, Can't locate object method "tree"
- via package "Catalyst::Dispatcher", fix the plugin as tree was never
- a public method.
-
- - Catalyst-Model-Akismet, incorrectly inherits from
- Catalyst::Component::InstancePerContext, should compose as a role.
- Fix the module.
-
- - Update Test suite to not assume MyApp ISA Controller
- - After that set up attr handlers that will output helpful error messages
- when you do it as well as how to fix it. (done already?)
+# Known Bugs:
+
+ - Bug ->go or ->visit causes actions which have Args or CaptureArgs called
+ twice when called via ->go or ->visit.
+
+ Test app: http://github.com/bobtfish/catalyst-app-bug-go_chain/tree/master
+
+# Compatibility warnings to add:
+
+ - $self->config should warn as config should only ever be called as a
+ class method (TESTS).
- - Comments marked /Moose TODO/i in Catalyst::Request re {_body} (t0m)
+# Proposed functionality / feature additions:
- - Eliminate all instances of $instance->{$key}, I think the only thing
- left is lib/Catalyst/Engine/HTTP.pm: $self->{inputbuf}, which I haven't
- touched as it is used as an lvalue in a lot of places (t0m)
+## Log setup needs to be less lame
- - Find whatever in the test suite craps a file called GLOB(0xfoo) onto my
- disk and fix it. (Believed to be in the optional tests?) (t0m)
+So Catalyst::Plugin::Log::* can die
+in a fire. Having $c->log_class would be a good start. kane volunteered
+to do some of this.
-Documentation:
+Simple example: Catalyst::Plugin::Log::Colorful should just be a
+subclass of Catalyst::Log, no ::Plugin:: needed.
- - extends in components must be inside a BEGIN block.
+See also: Catalyst::Plugin::Log::Dispatch and
+http://github.com/willert/catalyst-plugin-log4perl-simple/tree
- - How to write Moosified Catalyst components.
+# REFACTORING
- - Manual / Tutorial updates
+## The horrible hack for plugin setup - replacing it:
- - Fix the Roadmap to be less full of lies.
+ * Have a look at the Devel::REPL BEFORE_PLUGIN stuff
+ I wonder if what we need is that combined with plugins-as-roles
-Profiling:
+## App / ctx split:
- - vs 5.70 and optimisation as needed.
+ NOTE - these are notes that t0m thought up after doing back compat for
+ catalyst_component_class, may be inaccurate, wrong or missing things
+ bug mst (at least) to correct before trying more than the first 2
+ steps. Please knock yourself out on the first two however :)
-Tests:
+ - Eliminate actions in MyApp from the main test suite
+ - Uncomment warning in C::C::register_action_methods, add tests it works
+ by mocking out the logging..
+ - Remove MyApp @ISA controller (ask metaclass if it has attributes, and if
+ so you need back compat :/)
+ - Make Catalyst::Context, move the per request stuff in there, handles from
+ main app class to delegate
+ - Make an instance of the app class which is a global variable
+ - Make new instance of the context class, not the app class per-request
+ - Remove the components as class data, move to instance data on the app
+ class (you probably have to do this for _all_ the class data, good luck!)
+ - Make it possible for users to spin up different instances of the app class
+ (with different config etc each)
+ - Profit! (Things like changing the complete app config per vhost, i.e.
+ writing a config loader / app class role which dispatches per vhost to
+ differently configured apps is piss easy)
- - Moosified test application?
+## GSOC
+
+### Next steps - less planned:
+
+ - Creating service()-like sugar for component
+
+ - Test cases for extending the container in an application.
+ - Using the sugar added in the previous item
+ - Test when Model::Foo depends_on Model::Bar
+
+ - Tests for using the container outside of Catalyst
+ - Custom container which adds some (very simple) services which are initialized from
+ the application config file (note plain services, not components)
+ - Depend on (and test) these inside Catalyst
+ - Test loading container outside Catalyst, and these services working
+ - Test Catalyst / MyApp is not loaded
+
+#### Extending my app, notes
+
+Basically try to implement something like this (starting out without the sugar!), and see how it breaks
+and what needs to be done to fix it!
+
+##### Eventual syntax
+
+package MyApp::Container;
+use Catalyst::IOC;
+
+ container $self, as {
+ container model => as {
+ component Foo => (); # As per default!
+ component Bar => (dependencies => ['/model/Foo']); # Magic!
+ component Baz => ( lifecycle => 'InstancePerContext );
+ component Quux => ( lifecycle => 'Singleton' ); # ACCEPT_CONTEXT not called
+ };
+ # Note - implementation of BB may need to be changed to support making sure existing
+ # services actually get overridden. not sure how the default container behaves when doing that
+ # above code would build the constructor injection as it currently does,
+ # defaulting to the class name in the right namespace as declared by the surrounding container
+ # as well as adding using the catalyst-specific service class
+ };
+
+1;
+
+##### To start with
+
+package MyApp::Container;
+use Moose;
+
+extends 'Catalyst::Container;
+
+after BUILD => sub {
+ my $self = shift;
+ my $model_container = $self->get_sub_container('model');
+ my $service = Catalyst::IOC::ConstructorInjection->new(
+ name => 'Baz',
+ class => 'MyApp::Model::Baz',
+ dependencies => [
+ depends_on( '/application_name' ),
+ depends_on( '/config' ),
+ depends_on( '/model/Foo' ),
+ ],
+ lifecycle => 'InstancePerContext',
+ );
+ $model_container->add_service( 'Foo', $service );
+};
+
+### To polish off / t0m review
+
+ locate_components service vs setup_components method
+ - can we be more lazy?
+ - should setup_components be a service that things like the ->component lookup
+ can depend on?
+
+ - my $accept_context_args = $self->param('accept_context_args');
+ + my $accept_context_args = $params{accept_context_args};
+ ^^ This (may be) wrong! I am thinking the service should be allowed to mangle the
+ accept_context args, no?
+ Without this change, the user could make a custom service which mangled the param, and use
+ Catalyst/IOC/Service/WithAcceptContext.pm, with this change, that module will always see the
+ un-mangled version?? However, without this change, shit doesn't work...
+
+### Known issues
+
+ - Broken $instance->expand_modules() in setup_components and figure
+ out later how to bring it back
+
+ - expand_component_module
+
+ - People wrapping locate_components in Catalyst.pm
