5.90122 - 2018-11-03
- releasing as stable
5.90_121 - 2018-10-22
- use the :utf8_strict (PerlIO::utf8_strict) rather than :encoding file handle
layer to handle decoding uploads, as a performance boost.
- fix handling of decoding uploaded files. this fixes the usage of sysread
on :utf8 handles, and reenables the tests on all perl versions. Fixes CPAN
RT#125843. See also erl RT#133585.
- giving incorrect types to uri_for will warn to logs rather than via carp
- silence warning and error output from tests
5.90120 - 2018-10-19
- avoid problematic test using sysread() on :utf8 filehandles on dev perl
versions where this is fatal (starting with 5.29.4). see RT#125843.

- PR158 - improved docs for Catalyst::Test
- PR157 - improved error response for data_handlers
- PR156 - POD fixes
- PR154 - Few dependencies
- PR152 - Better support for HTTP Patch
5.90115 - 2017-05-01
- fixes for silent bad behavior in Catalyst::ScriptRole and 'ensure_class_loaded'
(hobbs++)
- do not require MXRWO if Moose is new enough to have cored it (ether++)
- documentation improvements (ether++)
- Encoding documentation improvements (colinnewell++)
- Improve documentation and test cases for 'abort_chain_on_error_fix' configuration
option (melmothx++)
- Better debug output when using Hash::MultiValue (tremor69++)
- Fixes for detecting debug terminal size (simonamor++)
5.90114 - 2016-12-19
- Fixed regression introduced in the last version (5.90113) which caused
application to hang when the action private name contained a string
like 'foo/bar..html'. If you are running 5.90113 you should consider this
a required update.
- Tweaked travis CI script.
5.90113 - 2016-12-15
- Fixed issue with $controller->action_for when targeting an action in
a namespace nested inside the current controller and the current controller
is a 'root' controller.
- Enhanced $controller->action_for so that you can reference the 'parent'
controller via relative path (eg ->action_for('../foo')).
- Backcompat fix for people that made the mistake of doing $c->{stash}
- Sort controllers in setup_actions so cross-controller precedence is
consistent.
5.90112 - 2016-07-25
- Spelling fixes from Debian group.
- Fixed regression introduced in last release that caused the code to crap out
if you set the encoding to 'undef'.
5.90111 - 2016-07-20
- Improved documentation around some of the unicode changes; tests (melmothx++)
5.90110 - 2016-07-20
- Better catching of HTTP style exceptions so that you can reliable use one to
override many core method.
- Documention on better ways to catch and handle Unicode errors
- We now check the unicode in your URL request queries and raise an error if the
check fails. This was done to be consistent with what we do in other parts of
the code (such as in args, or POSTed parameters). If this breaks your code in
ways you don't want to fix, you may disable this using the global configuration
setting, "do_not_check_query_encoding".
- Removed configuration setting, "decode_query_using_global_encoding" since it no
longer does anything useful. Query decoding follows from whatever you set the
global encoding to, unless you specify an alternative or to not decode.
5.90106 - 2016-07-05
- Fixed regression in debug screen rendering of the private names in chained
actions caused by commit 5dd46e24eedec447bdfbc4061ed683b5a17a7b0c.
- Fixed incorrect date entered for the release of 5.90105
- Fixed some incorrect code in a test case that might be causing test fails
in some configurations.
5.90105 - 2016-06-08
- Tweak some test cases to try and prevent them from failing in limited cases.
- Changed how we compose traits onto the response, request, and stats class so
that we compose just once at setup time (performance optimization). Also added
a debug screen at startup to display composed classes to help with debugging.
- Fixed a regressed caused by the changes we made to the way ->state works so that
now when you forward to an action and that action throws an exception, $c->state
is set to 0, instead of the value of the exeption (this is to be as indicated by
the documentation). (cventers++ for reported bug and test case).
- Changed the code that detects if you try to set HTTP headers after headers are
finalized to not warn if you are just requested the response header state. Tweaked
this error message a bit to help people understand it.
5.90104 - 2016-04-04
- Merged pull request #131, fix for noisy debug logs when used type constraints
in your actions. Additional changes to the developer debug screen output to
improve reporting details.
- Merged pull request #133, fix for case when a file upload filename contains
wide characters which caused the filename to not appear in the uploads hash.
5.90103 - 2015-11-12
- More documentation fixes (thanks to the debian maintainers and melmothx++)
- Fixed the way we parse subroutine attribute values to fix a regression
introduced in 5.90102. This is a recommended upgrade (tsibley++, mst++)
- Fixed regression around auto actions that escape by throwing an exception
which was introduced in the last release.
- Bumped namespace::autoclean dep to latest since tests require -except
5.90102 - 2015-10-29
- Better warnings when there's an error reading the psgi.input (billmosley++)
- Fixed spurious warnings in uri_for when using no arguments (melmothx++ and
paultcochrane++)
- Documentation improvements (paultcochrane++)
- Improvements to 'search_extra' configuration and tests around using
uri_for as a class method (cngarrison++)
- Fix when Path() is set and not geting registered as action (grim8634++)
- $c->state is now preserved over actions in a chain, and across begin,
auto, ->forward and ->detach.
5.90101 - 2015-09-04
- Fixed a regression introduced in the last release which caused test
case failure when using a version of Perl 5.14 or older.
5.90100 - 2015-08-24
- Document using namespace::autoclean with controllers that have actions
with type constraints.
- Look for type constraints in super classes and consumed roles.
- Change the way the stash middleware works to no longer localize $psgi_env.
- If you delegate control to a sub Catalyst application, that application
may now return information to the parent application via the stash.
- Fix for RT#106373 (Issue when you try to install and also have an old
version of Test::Mechanize::WWW::Catalyst)
5.90097 - 2015-07-28
- $c->uri_for now defines a final argument for setting the URL fragment
/URL anchor. This is now the canonical approach to setting a fragment
via uri_for.
- Reverted how we treat $c->uri_for($path) where $path is a string. When
we introduced the UTF-8 work we started encoding stringy paths, which
breaks code that did not expect that. We now consider stringy $path to
be 'expert' mode and you are expected to perform all nessary encoding.
5.90096 - 2015-07-27
- Fixed regression introduced in previous release that prevented a URI
fragment from getting properly encoded. Added more tests around this
to define behavior better.
5.90095 - 2015-07-27
- Minor test case tweak that I hope solve some minor hiesenfails reported
on CPAN testers.
- (https://github.com/perl-catalyst/catalyst-runtime/pull/109) added som
additional directions to how to setup a development sandbox
- (https://github.com/perl-catalyst/catalyst-runtime/pull/108) fix bug in
encoding where URI fragment seperator '#' in ->uri_for would get encoded.
5.90094 - 2015-07-24
- When there is a multipart POST request and the parts have extended
HTTP headers, try harder to decode and squeeze a meaningful value
out of it before giving up and crying. Updated docs and tests to
reflect this change. This should solve problems when your clients
are posting multipart form values with special character sets.
- Fixed issue where last_error actually returned the first error. Took
the change to add a 'pop_errors' to give the inverse of shift_errors.
- Merged Pull Requests:

- https://github.com/perl-catalyst/catalyst-runtime/pull/107
5.90093 - 2015-05-29
- Fixed a bug where if you used $res->write and then $res->body, the
contents of body would be double encoded (gshank++).
5.90092 - 2015-05-19
- Allows you to use a namespace suffix for request, response and stats
class traits. Docs and tests for this.
- Refactor the change introduced in 5.90091 to solve reported issues (for
example Catalyst::Controller::DBIC::API fails its tests) and to be a more
conservative refactor (new code more closely resembles the orginal code
that has proven to work for years.)
5.90091 - 2015-05-08
- Fixed a bug where if an injected component expanded sub components, those
sub components would not show up in the startup debug dev console (
even though they were actually created).
5.90090 - 2015-04-29
- Updated some documention in Catalyst::Request::Upload to clarify behavior
that RT ticket reported as confusing or unexpected
- Merged all changes from 5.90089_XXX development cycle.
- removed a mistaken use of Test::Most, which is not a core Catalyst
dependency. Used Test::More instead.
5.90089_004 - 2015-04-28
- Added swanky github badges.
- Reverted a change to how the stats engine is setup that was incorrect.
- New application setup hook 'config_for' which allows one to get the
canonical application configuration for a controller, view or model, or
a plugin. Can also be used to override and adapt what configuration is
retrieved.
5.90089_003 - 2015-04-27
- Fixed an issue where a delayed controller that did ACCEPT_CONTEXT would
raise an error when registering its actions.
- Updated some documentation around route matching.
- refactored the setup of injected components to allow you to hook into
the injection and do custom injection types.
5.90089_002 - 2015-04-17
- Changed the way we check for presence of Type::Tiny in a test case to be
more explicit in the version requirement. Hopefully a fix for reported
test fail.
- When declaring type constraints in Args and CaptureArgs, if you want to
use a Moose builtin type (or a custom stringy type that you've already
defined and associated with the Moose::TypeRegistry) you must now quote
the type name. This is to clearly disambiguate between Moose stringy types
and imported types.
- Additional changes to type constraint detection to between determine when a
type constraint for reference types have a measured number of arguments or
not. clarify restriction on reference type constraints.
- Several bugs with type constraints and uri_for squashed. More test cases
around all the argument type constraints to tighten scope of action.
- NEW FEATURE: New method in Catalyst::Utils 'inject_component', which is a core
version of the previously external addon 'CatalystX::InjectComponent'. You should
start to convert your existing code which uses the stand alone version, since
going forward only the core version will be supported. Also the core version in
Catalyst::Utils has an additional feature to compose roles into the injected
component.
- NEW FEATURE: Concepts from 'CatalystX::RoleApplicator' have been moved to core
so we now have the follow application attributes 'request_class_traits',
'response_class_traits' and 'stats_class_traits' which allow you to compose
traits for these core Catalyst classes without needing to create subclasses. So
in general any request or response trait on CPAN that used 'CatalystX::RoleApplicator'
should now just work with this core feature. Note that can also set thse roles
via new configuration keys, 'request_class_traits', 'response_class_traits'
and 'stats_class_traits'. If you use both configuration and application class methods,
they are combined.
- NEW FEATURE: Core concepts from 'CatalystX::ComponentsFromConfig'. You can now
setup components directly from configuration. This could save you some effort and
creating 'empty' base classes in your Model/View and Controller directories. This
feature is currently limited in that you can only configure components that are
'true' Catalyst components (but you may use Catalyst::Model::Adaptor to proxy
stand alone classes...).
- Only create a stats object if you are using stats. This is a minor performance
optimization, but there's a small chance it is a breaking change, so please
report any stats related issues.
- Added a developer mode warning if you call a component with arguments that does not
expect arguments (for example calling $c->model('Foo', 1,2,3,4) where Myapp::Model::Foo
does not ACCEPT_CONTEXT. Only components that ACCEPT_CONTEXT do anything with
passed arguments in $c->controller/view/model.
- Change the way components are setup so that you can now rely on all components
when setting up a component. Previously application scoped components could not
reliably use an existing application scoped component as a dependecy for initialization.
5.90089_001 - 2015-03-26
- New development branch synched with 5.90085.
- NEW FEATURE: Type Constraints on Args/CaptureArgs. Allows you to declare
a Moose, MooseX::Types or Type::Tiny named constraint on your Arg or
CaptureArg.
- When using $c->uri_for (or the derived $c->uri_for_action) and the target
action has type constrainted args (or captures), verify that the proposed
URL matches the defined args. In general $c->uri_for will be a bit more
noisy if the supplied arguments are not correct.
- New top level document on Route matching. (Catalyst::RouteMatching). This
document is still in development, but is worth review and comments.
5.90085 - 2015-03-25
- Small change to Catalyst::Action to prevent autovivication of Args value (dim1++)
- Minor typo fixes (Abraxxa++)
- Make sure than when using chained actions and when more than one action
matches the same path specification AND has Args(0), that we follow the
"in a tie, the last action defined wins" rule. There is a small chance
this is a breaking change for you. See Catalyst::Upgrading for more.
You may use the application configuration setting "use_chained_args_0_special_case"
to disable this new behavior, if you must for back-compat reasons.
- Added PATCH HTTP Method action attribute shortcut.
- Several new configuration options aimed to give improved backwards compatibility
for when your URL query parameters or keywords have non UTF-8 encodings.
See Catalyst::Upgrading.
5.90084 - 2015-02-23
- Small change to the way body parameters are created in order to prevent
trying to create parameters twice.
- Use new HTTP::Body and code updates to fix issue when POSTed params have
non UTF-8 charset encodings or otherwise complex upload parts that are not
file uploads. In these cases when Catalyst can't determine what the value of
a form upload is, will return an instance of Catalyst::Request::PartData with
all the information need to figure it out. Documentation about this corner
case. For RT https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=101556
- Two new application configuration parameters 'skip_body_param_unicode_decoding'
and 'skip_complex_post_part_handling' to assist you with any backward
compatibility issues with all the new UTF8 work in the most recent stable
Catalyst. You may use these settings to TEMPORARILY disable certain new
features while you are seeking a long term fix.
5.90083 - 2015-02-16
- Fixed typo in support for OPTIONS method matching (andre++)
- Stop using $env->{'plack.request.query'} as a query parsing optimization
since 1) it doesn't belong to us and 2) there's subtle differences in the
way plack parses parameters and catalyst does. This fixes a bug when you
are using middleware that uses Plack::Request to do its thing. This change
might have subtle impact on query parsing. Please test this change!
5.90082 - 2015-01-10
- Fixed a regression created in $response->from_psgi_response and test case
to prevent it happening again.
5.90081 - 2015-01-10
- created class attribute 'finalized_default_middleware' which determines
if the default middleware has been added to the stack yet or not. This
removes a horrible hack that polluted the configuration hash. Added
test case to prevent regressions.
5.90080 - 2015-01-09
- Minor documentation corrections
- Make the '79 development series stable
5.90079_008 - 2015-01-07
- If we get a response set from $res->from_psgi_response and that response
has a charset for the content type, we clear encoding for the rest of the
response (avoid double encoding). Added more documentation around this.
- Documentation updates and typo fixes across various UTF8 docs (Mark Ellis++)
5.90079_007 - 2015-01-07
- Merged from Stable (5.90079)
- reviewed and cleaned up UTF8 related docs
- replace missing utf8 pragma in Catalyst::Engine
- Cleaned up spelling errors in various docs (abbraxxa++)
- New document Catalyst::UTF8 which attempts to summarize UTF8 and encoding
changes introduced in v5.90080.
5.90079_006 - 2015-01-02
- Removed unneeded dependency on RenderView in new test case that was causing fails
on CPAN testers that did not just happen to have that dependency already installed
- Updated copyright notices to 2015
- Documentation patches around the setup methods and clarification on on security
note posted a few months ago.
- Added my name to the contributors list
5.90079_005 - 2014-12-31
- Merged changes from 5.90078
- If configuration 'using_frontend_proxy' is set, we add the correct middleware
to the default middleware list. This way you get the correct and expected
behavior if you are starting your application via one of the generated scripts
or if you are calling MyApp->psgi_app. Previously if you started the application
with ->psgi_app (or to_app) we ignored this configuration option
- New configuration option 'using_frontend_proxy_path' which enables
Plack::Middleware::ReverseProxyPath on your application easily. Please note that
Plack::Middleware::ReverseProxyPath is not an automatic dependency of Catalyst at
this time, so if you want this feature you should add it to your project dependency
list. This is done to avoid continued growth of Catalyst dependencies.
- Tweaks encoding docs a bit to get closer to final.
5.90079_004 - 2014-12-26
- Starting adding some docs around the new encoding stuff
- Exposed the reqexp we use to match content types that need encoding via a
global variable.
- Added some test cases for JSON utf8 and tested file uploads with utf8.
- Fixes to decoding on file upload filenames and related methods
- new methods on upload object that tries to do the right thing if we find
a character set on the upload and its UTF8.
- new additional helper methods on the file upload object.
- new helper methods has_encoding and clear_encoding on context.
- Method on Catalyst::Response to determine if the response should be encoded.
- Warn if changing headers only if headers are finalized AND the response callback
has already been called (and headers already sent).
- Centralized rules about detecting if we need to automatically encode or not and
added tests around cases when you choose to skip auto encoding.
5.90079_003 - 2014-12-03
- Make sure all tests run even if debug mode is enabled.
- Fixed issue with middleware stash test case that failed on older Perls
5.90079_002 - 2014-12-02
- Fixed typo in Makefile.PL which borked the previous distribution. No other
changes.
5.90079_001 - 2014-12-02
- MyApp->to_app is now an alias for MyApp->psgi_app in order to better support
existing Plack conventions.
- Modify Catalyst::Response->from_psgi_response to allow the first argument to
be an object that does ->as_psgi.
- Modified Catalyst::Middleware::Stash to be a shallow copy in $env. Added some
docs. Added a test case to make sure stash keys added in a child application
don't bubble back up to the main application.
- We no longer use Encode::is_utf8 since it doesn't work the way we think it
does... This required some UTF-8 changes. If your application is UTF-8 aware
I highly suggest you test this release.
- We always do utf8 decoding on incoming URLs (before we only did so if the server
encoding was utf8. I believe this is correct as per the w3c spec, but please
correct if incorrect :)
- Debug output now shows utf8 characters if those are incoming via Args or as
path or pathparts in your actions. query and body parameter keys are now also
subject to utf8 decoding (or as specified via the encoding configuration value).
- lots of UTF8 changes. Again we think this is now more correct but please test.
- Allow $c->res->redirect($url) to accept $url as an object that does ->as_string
which I think will ease a common case (and common bug) and added documentation.
- !!! UTF-8 is now the default encoding (there used to be none...). You can disable
this if you need to with MyApp->config(encoding => undef) if it causes you trouble.
- Calling $c->res->write($data) now encodes $data based on the configured encoding
(UTF-8 is default).
- $c->res->writer_fh now returns Catalyst::Response::Writer which is a decorator
over the PSGI writer and provides an additional method 'write_encoded' that just
does the right thing for encoding your responses. This is probably the method
you want to use.
- New dispatch matching attribute: Scheme. This lets you match a route based on
the incoming URI scheme (http, https, ws, wss).
- If $c->uri_for targets an action or action chain that defines Scheme, use that
scheme for the generated URI object instead of just using whatever the incoming
request uses.
5.90079 - 2015-01-02
- Removed dependency from test case that we don't install for testing (
rt #101243)
- updated year in copyright notices
5.90078 - 2014-12-30
- POD corrections (sergey++)
- New configuration option to disable the HTTP Exception passthrough feature
introduced in 5.90060. You can use this if that feature is causing you
trouble. (davewood++);
- Some additional helper methods for dealing with errors.
- More clear exception when $request->body_data tries to parse malformed POSTed
data. Added documentation and tests around this.
5.90077 - 2014-11-18
- We store the PSGI $env in Catalyst::Engine for backcompat reasons. Changed
this so that the storage is a weak reference, so that it goes out of scope
with the request. This solves an issue where items in the stash (now in the
PSGI env) would not get closed at the end of the request. This caused some
regression, primarily in custom testing classes.
5.90076 - 2014-11-13
- If throwing an exception object that does the code method, make sure that
method returns an expected HTTP status code before passing it on to the
HTTP Exception middleware.
5.90075 - 2014-10-06
- Documentation patch for $c->req->param to point out the recently discovered
potential security issues: http://blog.gerv.net/2014/10/new-class-of-vulnerability-in-perl-web-applications/
- You don't need to install this update, but you should read about the exploit
and review if your code is vulnerable. If you use the $c->req->param interface
you really need to review this exploit.
5.90074 - 2014-10-01
- Specify Carp minimum version to avoid pointless test fails (valy++)
5.90073 - 2014-09-23
- Fixed a regression caused by the last release where we broke what happened
when you tried to set request parameters via $c->req->param('foo', 'bar').
You shouldn't do this, but I guess I shouldn't have busted it either :)
- Allow the term_width to be regenerated (see Catalyst::Utils::term_width,
Frew Schmidt)
- More aggressive skipping of value decoding if the value is undefined.
5.90072 - 2014-09-15
- In the case where you call $c->req->param(undef), warn with a more useful
warning (now gives the line of your code that called param with the undef,
so you can go to hunt it out.
5.90071 - 2014-08-10
- Travis config now performs basic reverse dependency testing.
- Restored deprecated 'env' code in Engine.pm b/c it is still being used out
in the wild (Catalyst-Plugin-Authentication-0.10023) - (removed in 5.90070)
- Reverted changes to debug log/handling (5.90069_003) to fix
rev dep Catalyst-Plugin-Static-Simple-0.32 test suite.
- Added Italian translation of default error.
5.90070 - 2014-08-07
- Retagged previous release as stable; no changes
5.90069_004
- Fixed typo in middleware stash that was causing older Perls to fail
certain tests. No other changes.
5.90069_003
- The default log level is now 'info', not 'debug'.
- Finished merging all the encoding plugin code to core code. The encoding
plugin is now just an empty package. Also tried to improve encoding docs
a bit.
- Some additional changes to the stash middleware that should not break
anything new.
- Documentation around using Sendfile type http headers with a filehandle
type response.
- Merged from master branch to pick up some additional fixes and documentation
improvements.
5.90069_002
- Catalyst stash functionality has been moved to Middleware. It should
work entirely the same when used as a context method, please report
questions or problems!
- Removed code related to supporting the long deprecated stand alone
PSGI Engine. If you are still using this you code is now broken.
Luckily you can just stop using it and likely everything will work
under the new PSGI support built into Catalyst for several years.
- 'abort_chain_on_error_fix' now defaults to true. If this behavior
causes you issues, you can explicitly turn it off by setting it to a
non true defined value (0 is a good option here).
- When throwing an http style exception, make sure we properly flush the
existing log and report other errors in the error stack.
5.90069_001
- Set encoding on STDERR when encoding is set in config
- documentation and test fixes
5.90065 - 2014-06-04
- The Catalyst::Log object now has 'autoflush' (which defaults to true) and
causes log messages to be written out in real-time. This is helpful for the
test/dev server to be able to see messages during startup as well as before
the end of the request when the log is flushed.
- Fix spelling, grammar and structural errors in POD
- Remove redundant ->setup call in t/head_middleware.t RT#95361
- Fix test failures when running under CATALYST_DEBUG. RT#95358
5.90064 - 2014-05-05
- Fix for mindless broken tests on Win32 (Haarg++).
- Happy Cinco de Mayo!
5.90063 - 2014-05-01
- 'end' and other special actions won't catch HTTP style exceptions anymore.
- Fix bug where Catalyst did not properly detect the terminal width when in
debug mode and thus making the debug output narrow and hard to read.
- Documentation corrections for Util methods around localized PSGI $env.
- Improvements to auto detection of terminal width.
- Updating deprecation list to include Class::Load and ensure_class_loaded
- Added a few docs around middleware and corrected the order that middleware
is loaded when registering it via ->setup_middleware instead of via
configuration.
- Added a test case to make sure default middleware order is correct.
s
5.90062 - 2014-04-14
- HTTP::Exception objects were not properly bubbled up to middleware since
there was some code in Catalyst that was triggering stringification.
5.90061 - 2014-03-10
- Reverted a change related to how plugins get initialized that was
introduced by a change in December.
5.90060 - 2014-02-07
- Same as 5.90059_006, just marking it as stable, no functional changes.
5.90059_006 - 2014-02-06
- MyApp->setup now returns $app to allow class method chaining.
- New Util helper functional localize $env to make it easier to mount PSGI
applications under controllers and actions. See Catalyst::Utils/PSGI Helpers.
- NOTICE: Final Development release for Runner, unless significant issues are
raised. Please test.
5.90059_005 - 2014-01-28
- Specify newest versions of some middleware in attempt to solve test errors
reported while installing.
5.90059_004 - 2014-01-27
- Make sure IO handle objects do 'getline' before sending them to the
response callback, to properly support the PSGI specification.
- Added some backcompat code when setting a response body to an object
that does 'read' but not 'getline'. Added deprecation notice for this
case. Added docs to Catalyst::Delta.
- Catalyst::Delta contains a list of behaviors which will be considered
deprecated immediately. Most items have workarounds and tweaks you can
make to avoid issues. These deprecations are targeted for removal/enforcement
in the Catalyst 6 release. Please review and give your feedback.
- More middleware to replace inline code (upasana++)
- Documentation around Exceptions and how we handle them.
- update copyright notices.
5.90059_003 - 2013-12-24
- More documentation about alternative ways to setup middleware.
- removed unneeded use of Devel::Dwarn in test case that was causing
fails to install (sorry).
- When finalizing caught errors, if the error conforms to the interface as
described by Plack::Middleware::HTTPExceptions, rethrow it and let the
middleware deal with it.
5.90059_002 - 2013-12-21
- We now pass a scalar or filehandle directly to you Plack handler, rather
than always use the streaming interface (we are still always using a
delayed response callback). This means that you can make use of Plack
middleware like Plack::Middleware::XSendfile and we expect better use of
server features (when they exist) like correct use of chunked encoding or
properly non blocking streaming when running under a supporting server like
Twiggy. See Catalyst::Delta for more. This change might cause issues if
you are making heaving use of streaming (although in general we expect things
to work much better.
- In the case when we remove a content body from the response because you set
an information status or a no content type status, warn that we are doing so
when in debug mode. You might see additional debugging information to help
you find and remove unneeded response bodies.
- Updated the code where Catalyst tries to guess a content length when you
fail to provide one. This should cause less issues when trying to guess the
length of a funky filehandle. This now uses Plack::Middleware::ContentLength
- Removed custom code to remove body content when the request is HEAD and
swapped it for Plack::Middleware::Head
- Merged fix for regressions from stable..
5.90059_001 - 2013-12-19
- Removed deprecated Regexp dispatch type from dependency list. If you are
using Regex[p] type dispatching you need to add the standalone distribution
'Catalyst::DispatchType::Regex' to you build system NOW or you application
will be broken.
5.90053 - 2013-12-21
- Reverted a change in the previous release that moved the setup_log phase
to after setup_config. This change was made to allow people to use
configuration that is late loaded (such as via the ConfigLoader Plugin)
to setup the plugin. However it also broke the ability to use the log
during plugin setup (ie, it breaks lots of plugins). Reverting the
change. See Catalyst::Delta for workarounds.
5.90052 - 2013-12-18
- Fixed first block of startup debug messages missing when using a custom
logger that gets set at runtime, for example by overriding finalize_config
- Give a more descriptive error message when trying to load middleware that
does not exist.
- Change the way we initialize plugins to fix a bug where when using the
popular ConfigLoader plugin, configs merged are not available for setting
up middleware and data handlers (and probably other things as well).
NOTE: This change might cause issues if you had code that was relying on the
broken behavior. For example external configuration that was being loaded to
late to have effect might now take effect. Please test you code carefully and
be aware of this possible issue </NOTE>.
- You may now also call 'setup_middleware' as a package method if you think
that loading middleware via configuration is a weird or broken idea.
- Various POD formatting fixed.
- Improved some documentation about what type of filehandles that ->body can
accept and issues that might arise.
5.90051 - 2013-11-06
- Be more skeptical of the existence of $request->env to fix a regression
introduced in Catalyst::Action::REST by the previous release
5.90050 - 2013-11-05
- Previously public predicates on the following attributes are now considered
private and their method names have been changed to follow Perl convention
for internal methods:
-- Catalyst::Request->has_io_fh ==> _has_io_fh
-- Catalyst::Request->has_env ==> _has_env
-- Catalyst::Response->has_write_fh ==> _has_write_fh
These are breaking changes but these methods were never documented and serve
no use for external code. If you are using thing, you need to make the noted
change (but please consider finding another way to do what you are trying to
do). t0m++ for code review of Hamburg branch.
5.90049_006 - 2013-11-04
- Fixed case where test could fail when Starman was partly installed (n0body++)
- Fixed missing date information in previous release
5.90049_005 - 2013-10-31
- NEW FEATURE: New Controller action attribute 'Consumes', which allows you
to specify the content type of the incoming request. This makes it easier
to create actions that only handle certain content type POST or PUT, such
as actions that only handle JSON or actions that only understand classic
HTML forms.
- NEW FEATURE: Request->body_data is now also populated from classic HTML
Forms using CGI::Struct to support nested data. For non nested data you
should use the classic ->body_parameters method.
- Removed PSGI $env keys that are added on the 'plack.request.*' namespace
since after discussion it was clear those keys are not part of the public
API. Keys removed: 'plack.request.query', 'plack.request.body',
'plack.request.merged' and 'plack.request.http.body'. Altered some test
cases to reflect this change.
5.90049_004 - 2013-10-18
- JSON Data handler looks for both JSON::MaybeXS and JSON, and uses
whichever is first (preferring to find JSON::MaybeXS). This should
improve compatibility as you likely already have one installed.
- Fixed a warning in the server script (bokutin++)
- We now populate various Plack $env keys in order to play nice with
downstream middleware or plack apps (and to reduce processing if
those keys already exist). Keys added:
- plack.request.query
- plack.request.body
- plack.request.merged
- plack.request.http.body
(NOTE: REMOVED IN 5.90049_005)
- If incoming input (from a POST or PUT) is not buffered, create the
buffer and set the correct psgi env keys to note this for downstream
psgi apps / middleware. This should solve some issues where Catalyst
sucks up the body input but its not buffered so downstream apps can't
read it (for example FCGI does not buffer). We now also try to make
sure the body content input is reset to the start of the filehandle
so that we are polite to downstream middleware /apps.
- NEW FEATURE: Catalyst::Response can now pull response from a PSGI
specification response. This makes it easier to host external Plack
applications under Catalyst. See Catalyst::Response->from_psgi_response
- NEW FEATURE: New configuration option 'use_hash_multivalue_in_request'
will populate $request methods 'parameters', 'body_parameters' and
'query_parameters' with an instance of Hash::MultiValue instead of a
HashRef. This is used by Plack and is intended to reduce the need to
write defensive logic since you are never sure if an incoming parameter
is a scalar or arrayref.
- NEW FEATURE: We now experimentally support Net::Async::HTTP::Server
and IO-Async based event loops. Examples will follow.
5.90049_003 - 2013-09-20
- Documented the new body_data method added in the previous release
- Merged from master many important bugfixes and forward compatibility
updates, including:
- Use modern preferred method for Moose metaclass access and many other
small changes to how we use Moose for better forward compat (ether++)
- Killed some evil use of $@ (ether++)
- spelling fixes and documentation updates (ether++), (gerda++)
- use Test::Fatal over Test::Exception (ether++)
- Misc. test case fixes to modernize code (ether++)
- Added a first pass cpanfile, to try and make it easier to bootstrap
a development setup (ether++)
5.90049_002 - 2013-08-20
- Fixed loading middleware from project directory
- Fixed some pointless warnings when middleware class lacked VERSION
- NEW FEATURE: Declare global 'data_handlers' for parsing HTTP POST/PUT
alternative content, and created default JSON handler. Yes, now Catalyst
handles JSON request content out of the box! More docs eventually but
for now see the DATA HANDLERS section in Catalyst.pm (or review the test
case t/data_handler.t
5.90049_001 - 2013-07-26
- Declare PSGI compliant Middleware as part of your Catalyst Application via
a new configuration key, "psgi_middleware".
- Increased lowest allowed module version for Module::Pluggable to be 4.7 (up
from 3.4) to solve the fact this is no longer bundled with Perl in v5.18.
5.90042 - 2013-06-14
- Removed more places where an optional dependency shows up in the test
suite. Hopefully really fixed the unicode regression introduced in 5.90040
- reverted the change we introduced in 5.90040 where a unicode conversion
error warned instead of died. Now it dies again, like in the stand alone
plugin
- More work to make sure nothing happens with encoding unless you explicitly
ask for encoding
- Code to hopefully fix an issue where file uploads using the unicode plugin
caused trouble.
5.90041 - 2013-06-14
- Bug fix release to fix regressions introduced in previous. I would consider
this a likely upgrade and if you are having trouble with the previous I hope
this fixes all of them.
- Fix regression with the cored Unicode plugin that broke systems where you are
setting encoding type in an external configuration file
- Fixed circular dependency introduced when we cored the unicode plugin tests
- Fixed a longstanding problem with stats when locale uses , instead of . for
number decimals
- Fixed some docs that didn't properly date the previous release.
5.90040 - 2013-06-12
! Stricter checking of attributes in Catalyst::DispatchType::Chained:
1) Only allow one of either :CaptureArgs or :Args
2) :CaptureArgs() argument must be numeric
3) :CaptureArgs() and :Args() arguments cannot be negative
- Add Devel::InnerPackage to dependencies, fixing tests on Perl 5.17.11
as it's been removed from core. RT#84787
- New support for closing over the PSGI $writer object, useful for working
with event loops.
- lets you access a psgix.io socket, if your server supports it, for manual
handling of the client - server communication, such as for websockets.
- Fix waiting for the server to start in t/author/http-server.t
- new config flag 'abort_chain_on_error_fix' that exits immediately when a
action in an action chain throws and error (fixes issues where currently
the remaining actions are processed and the error is handled at chain
termination).
- Cored the Encoding plugin. Now get unicode out of the box by just setting
$c->config->{encoding} = 'UTF-8'. BACKCOMPAT WARNING: If you are using
the Encoding plugin on CPAN, we skip it to avoid double encoding issues, so
you should remove it from your plugin list, HOWEVER the 'encoding' config
setting is now undef, rather than 'UTF-8' (this was done to avoid breaking
people's existing applications) so you should add the encoding setting to
you global config. There's some other changes between the stand alone
plugin and the cored version, if you use it be sure to see Catalyst::Upgrading
for more.
- minor documentation typo fixes and updates
5.90030 - 2013-04-12
! POSSIBLE BREAKING CHANGE: Removed Regexp dispatch type from core, and put
it in an external package. If you need Regexp dispatch types you should
add "Catalyst-DispatchType-Regex" as a distribution to your build system.
- make $app->uri_for and related methods return something sane, when called
as an application method, instead of a context method. Now if you call
MyApp::Web->uri_for(...) you will get a generic URI object that you need to
resolve manually.
- documentation updates around forwarding to chained actions.
- Fixed bug when a PSGI engine need to use psgix logger.
- Added cpanfile as a way to notice we are a dev checkout.
- Added 'x-tunneled-method' HTTP Header method override to match features in
Catalyst::Action::REST and in other similar systems on CPAN.
- smarter validation around action attributes.
5.90020 - 2013-02-22
! Catalyst::Action now defines 'match_captures' so it is no long considered
an optional method. This might break you code if you have made custom
action roles/classes where you define 'match_captures'. You must change
your code to use a method modifier (such as 'around').
- New match method "Method($HTTP_METHOD)" where $HTTP_METHOD in (GET, POST,
PUT, HEAD, DELETE, OPTION) and shortcuts in controllers called "GET, POST
PUT, HEAD, DELETE, OPTION"). Tests and documentation. Please note if you
are currently using Catalyst::ActionRole::MatchRequestMethods there may
be compatibility issues. You should remove that actionrole since the built
in behavior is compatible on its own.
- Initial debug screen now shows HTTP Method Match info
- security fixes in the way we handle redirects
- Make Catalyst::Engine and Catalyst::Base immutable
- Some test and documentation improvements
5.90019 - 2012-12-04 21:31:00
- Fix for Perl 5.17.6 (commit g7dc8663). RT#81601
- Fix for Perl 5.8. RT#61122
- Remove use of MooseX::Types as MooseX::Types is broken on Perl 5.8
RT#77100 & RT#81121
5.90018 - 2012-10-23 20:55:00
- Changed code in test suite so it no longer trips up on recent changes to
HTTP::Message.
5.90017 - 2012-10-19 22:33:00
- Change Catalyst _parse_attrs so that when sub attr handlers:
1) Can return multiple pairs of new attributes.
2) Get their returned attributes passed through the correct attribute handler.
e.g sub _parse_Whatever_attr { return Chained => 'foo', PathPart => 'bar' }
Will now work because both new attributes are respected, and the Chained
attribute is passed to _parse_Chained_attr and fixed up correctly by that.
- In Catalyst::Test, don't mangle headers of non-HTML responses. RT#79043
- Refactor request and response class construction to add methods
that roles can hook to feed extra parameters into the constructor
of request or response classes.
5.90016 - 2012-08-16 15:35:00
- prepare_parameters is no longer an attribute builder. It is now a method
that calls the correct underlying functionality (Bill Moseley++)
- Updated Makefile.PL to handle MacOSX tar
- Fix uri_for to handle a stringifiable object
- Fix model/view/controller methods to handle stringifiable objects
- Fix RT#78377 - IIS7 ignores response body for 3xx requests, which
causes (a different) response to be broken when using keepalive.
Fixed by applying Middleware which removes the response body and
content length that Catalyst supplies with redirects.
5.90015 - 2012-06-30 16:57:00
- Fix $c->finalize_headers getting called twice. RT#78090
- Fix test fails in Catalyst-Plugin-Session-State-Cookie. RT#76179
- Fix test fails in Catalyst-Plugin-StackTrace
- Fix test fails in Test-WWW-Mechanize-Catalyst
5.90014 - 2012-06-26 10:00:00
- Fix calling finalize_headers before writing body when using $c->write /
$c->res->write (fixes RT#76179).
5.90013 - 2012-06-21 10:40:00
- Release previous TRIAL as stable.
- We failed to note in the previous changelog that the Makefile.PL has been
improved to make it easier for authors to bootstrap a developer install
of Catalyst.
5.90013 - TRIAL 2012-06-07 20:21:00
New features:
- Merge Catalyst::Controller::ActionRole into Catalyst::Controller.
Bug fixes:
- Fix warnings in some matching cases for Action methods with
Args(), when using Catalyst::DispatchType::Chained
- Fix request body parameters to not be undef if no parameters
are supplied.
- Fix action_args config so that it can be specified in the
top level config.
- Fix t/author/http-server.t on Win32
- Fix use of Test::Aggregate to make tests faster.
5.90012 - 2012-05-16 09:59:00
Distribution META.yml changes:
- author key is now correct, rather than what Module::Install
mis-parses from the documentation.
- x_authority key added.
Bug fixes:
- Fix request body parameters being multiply rebuilt. Fixes both
RT#75607 and CatalystX::DebugFilter
- Make plugin de-duplication work as intended originally, as whilst
duplicate plugins are totally unwise, the C3 error given to the user
is less than helpful.
- Remove dependence on obscure behaviour in B::Hooks::EndOfScope
for backward compatibility. This fixes issues with behaviour changes
in bleadperl. RT#76437
- Work around Moose bug RT#75367 which breaks
Catalyst::Controller::DBIC::API.
Documentation:
- Fix documentation in Catalyst::Component to show attributes and
calling readers, rather than accessing elements in the $self->{} hash
directly.
- Add note in Catalyst::Component to strongly disrecommend $self->config
- Fix vague 'checkout' wording in Catalyst::Utils. RT#77000
- Fix documentation for the 'secure' method in Catalyst:Request. RT#76710
5.90011 - 2012-03-08 16:43:00
Bug fixes:
- Simplification of the previous changes to Catalyst::ScriptRunner
We now just push $FindBin::Bin/../lib to the @INC path again, but
only if one of the dist indicator files (Makefile.PL Build.PL or
dist.ini) can be found in $FindBin::Bin/../$_
This avoids heuristics when the app is unloaded and therefore
works better for extensions which have entire applications in
their test suites.
