0.12 17 Nov 2007

• fix bug in Controller when determining whether do_search() should search.

0.15 24 Nov 2007

• oops. actually include the tutorial pod in this release.

0.16 04 Dec 2007

• fix typo in Tutorial so it shows up in search.cpan.org
• fix Controller->do_search() to always include query for view's use, even when there are no results.

0.17 19 Dec 2007

• add field_names() method to base Controller class. This is to aid development of CatalystX::CRUD::View implementations.

0.18 20 Dec 2007

• added nopage parameter support to the Model API.
• added ::Model::Utils to help with DRY

0.19 21 Dec 2007

• added Sort::SQL to Makefile.PL reqs.

0.20 31 Dec 2007

• fix view_on_single_result() to check can_write()

0.21 04 Jan 2008

• fix black magic can() in Model.pm

0.22 04 Jan 2008

• add treat_like_int() support to Model::Utils

0.23 20 Jan 2008

• added REST API
• added allow_GET_writes Controller config option, to prevent casual GET /save or /delete requests.

0.24 22 Jan 2008

• always fetch() in REST->default, to fix bug with no object being set for create()
• always uc() the req method for comparison purposes
• fix bug when checking the httpmethod param to use params() instead of param() and use the first if multiple.
• refactor REST to provide backwards compat with Controller for easy @ISA swap (as advertised)

0.25 1 Feb 2008

• fix bug to clarify what happens when form_to_object() returns false.

0.26 06 May 2008

• fix bug in Iterator to test for !next() rather than !defined(next())
• re-set action in ::REST->default so that RPC-style template naming works
• use :Path instead of :Private on ::REST->default
• fix several bugs with action() set in ::REST
• ::Controller->form now calls NEXT::form. This is for REST compat and @INC oddness.
• added new ::ModelAdapter class and refactored base Controller to use it.
• moved make_pager() from base ::Model to ::Model::Utils
• added new ::Test classes to ease writing controller-agnostic tests.
• new, optional 'make_query' method in Controller.
• move AUTOLOAD() and can() hackery out of base Model into base Object where it belongs. Now there is only 2 sins instead of the 3 in previous releases (where we no longer monkey-patch the subs at run time).
• refactor tests to actually perform some CRUD.
• add ::ModelAdapter::File example.
• add envvar CXCRUD_TEST in base CX::CRUD to cluck() stack traces on exceptions. Mostly useful during testing since the ::Test::Controller now returns only the error.
• renamed 'buffer' to 'content' in ::Object::File.
• ::Model::File->fetch() will now always return an object even if it does not yet exist on the filesystem.
• change default create() method in Controller to call methods directly instead of forward()ing.
• add create() method to REST that just redirects to create_form().
• change from 'use NEXT' to 'use Class::C3'
• added support for "x-tunneled-method" param to REST controller in addition to "httpmethod". This is for compat with Catalyst::Request::REST::ForBrowsers.

0.27 12 June 2008

• fix Controller->rm() to check for model_adapter() and call its delete() method as advertised.
• check for length($oid) instead of defined($oid) in REST->default
• added CatalystX::CRUD::Results class
• added naked_results() config option to base Controller
• refactored base Controller to make all config options into accessors. added t/02-controller
• change Model::Utils to use req->params rather than param()

0.28 11 Aug 2008

• API for ModelAdapter changed to pass controller instance in do_model()
• add get_primary_key() and make_primary_key_string() methods to base Controller. This allows for PKs composed of multiple columns.

0.29 23 Aug 2008

• fix typos in the Tutorial
• add relationship methods to Controller, ModelAdapter and Model core API.
• added sugary alias methods for read(), update() and delete() to match CRUD.
• refactored REST controller to support related methods and provide better HTTP status checks and responses.

0.30 11 Sept 2008

• fix uninit value warning in Controller
• change REST create() : Local to restcreate() : Path('create') to make it easier for create_form() to call create() in superclass.
• clean up old style $self->config->{value} to instead use $self->value in Controller
• add app_class() and model_meta() accessors to ModelAdapter
• in base Controller, rename view_on_single_result() method to uri_for_view_on_single_result and make accessor for the config value 'view_on_single_result'
• change all reserved param names in Model::Utils to use 'cxc-' prefix instead of ''. Backwards compat is preserved where possible.
• Model::Utils makequery() will uc() sort direction
• change behaviour of get_primary_key() in base Controller to not look in req->params for pk values. This allows for changing the PK as part of an update.
• add new() in REST to call next::method. Works around (some) multiple inheritance issues.
• check for $c->res->location before redirecting in postcommit()
• Model::Utils was refactored to use Search::QueryParser::SQL. The following methods were affected:
  • sql_query_as_string() -- removed
  • params_to_sql_query() -- now returns hashref with 3 items:
    • query isa Search::QueryParser::SQL::Query object
    • query_hash (formerly query) is a simple param-name => [values] hashref
    • sql is the output of S::QP::S::Query->rdbo
  • make_sql_query() -- returned hash ref now has query_hash as plain_query value and the stringify'd Query object as plain_query_str

0.31 16 Sept 2008

• add missing req to Makefile.PL
• force field_names to be an ARRAY ref in Utils make_sql_query()

0.32 21 Oct 2008

• use Class::Data::Inheritable to define delegate_class() class accessor in base Model

0.33 22 Nov 2008

• fix Tutorial wrt RT#40846

0.34 24 Nov 2008

• fix make_primary_key_string to return undef if multi-col PK has no values

0.35 24 Nov 2008

• call edit() after initializing object and form with passed in params, so that the init_form() method can have all data already set.

0.36 4 Dec 2008

• add cxc-fuzzy2 feature and document both it and cxc-fuzzy.

0.37 8 Dec 2008

• support x-tunneled-method for DELETE in save() calls

0.38 12 Jan 2009

• use maybe::next::method
• fix view_on_single_result bug in Test::Controller

0.39 14 Jan 2009

• add missing file to MANIFEST that causes tests to fail in 0.38

0.40 16 April 2009

• change base Controller to call can_read() rather than can_write() in edit(). This is because the call to edit() does not actually write anything; it's just a GET for a form.

0.41 21 April 2009

• remove Catalyst::Component::ACCEPT_CONTEXT as a dependency since it has not been updated for Catalyst 5.8.

0.42 27 April 2009

• revert ACCEPT_CONTEXT changes; fixes pushed to new C::C::A_C on CPAN, and added no warnings using Class::C3::Adopt::NEXT (thanks to t0m)
• change from 'use Class::C3' to 'use mro "c3"' with new dep on MRO::Compat
• added some debugging in tests

0.43 29 April 2009

• rid of ourselves of Class::Data::Inheritable because it clashes with Catalyst::Runtime 5.8. Notably, it caused a strange bug in Rose::DBx::Garden::Catalyst where the MyApp->config class hashref would get nuked after a call to Class::C3::initialize(). Yes. That fsked up.

0.44 23 May 2009

• check for symlink() support in Model::File at compile time and return from rm_related() if not supported. Fixes spurious test breakage on Win32. See https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=46314

0.45 13 June 2009

• fix multi-column sort via cxc-order param (requires Sort::SQL 0.04)

0.46 20 Nov 2009

• tweek Model::File _find to avoid multiple loops over the same list of root dirs.
• tweek Model::File->search to read() each object like fetch() does.
• add dep on Sort::SQL 0.07 to avoid sql injection (RT#51777)

0.47 15 Jan 2009

• fix tutorial per RT#53396
• fix bug in base Controller->fetch() where multiple PKs where one value is null were slipping through. Reported by Adam Mackler.

0.48 29 Jan 2009

• fix bug with create() introduced in 0.47.
• remove explicit dep on Class::C3 per RT54097

0.49 11 April 2010

• uri_for_view_on_single_result() will return uri for 'view' action, regardless of value of can_write().

0.50 13 May 2010

• fix make_primary_key_string() to get rid of bad sprintf() call

0.51 19 May 2010

• added use_request_uri_for_path to test MyApp to fix test failures with Catalyst::Runtime 5.80024
