Dancer 1.1999_02 (RC2)
[ Mark Allen ]
* Add a tutorial (Dancer::Tutorial)
* example application 'Dancr', provided in example/
[ Franck Cuny ]
* Dancer::Test load D::Session::Simple
* rewrite how Dancer handle HTTP headers
- no more Dancer::Headers
- all headers are HTTP::Headers object
[ Philippe Bruhat ]
* use Pod::Usage
[ Damien Krotkine ]
* replace all die and warn with croak and carp
[ Alexis Sukrieh ]
* FIX for issue GH #151
utf8 pragma is imported automatically when Dancer is loaded
to allow the usage of UTF-8 strings in the application code.
(Thanks to kocoureasy for the report).
* FIX for "UTF-8" issues (GH#153):
- response content is encoded only if content_type is text
- charset setting is normalized to UTF-8 when appropriate
- automatically decode UTF-8 strings in params
* FIX scaffolded dispatchers (script/dancer)
The PLACK_ENV variable is not propagated by Apoache to the dispatchers (at
least with our Deployment examples) so the dispatchers aren't aware of the
PSGI context if we don't tell them explicitly.
This patch forces the dispatchers in PSGI mode.
* FIX (unknown bug)
When a serializer is set and show_errors is true, don't expose internal
errors caught.
[ Naveen ]
* add --version to the dancer CLI
* changed the URI fetched by the dancer script to check Dancer's version
Dancer 1.1999_01 (RC1)
[ Alexis Sukrieh ]
* FIX for utf8 content in views
Dancer now handles correctly templates with non-ASCII characters in views.
All you have to do is to set the "charset" setting in your config. Your
content response will then be encoded appropriately on-the-fly by Dancer.
* Scaffolded app sets the charset to "utf8" by default.
* Better design for the scaffolded app (logo, favicon and background image
added)
* Environment info available on scaffolded app
* LWP is used by the dancer helper to download files
* jQuery 1.4.2 (minified) is included in the scaffolded app
* default layout uses <% request.base %> in order to support mounted apps
(Thanks to Naveed Massjouni and Franck Cuny for the concept/idea).
* The main.tt layout sources jQuery first from Google CDN and falls back to
the local minified version if on offline mode.
* New default token provided to the "template" helper: dancer_version
[ Sebastian de Castelberg ]
* The dancer helper is able to download files via a transparent proxy
(thanks to LWP).
[ Adam J. Foxson ]
* FIX for issue GH#136:
"readline() on closed filehandle DATA" error that appears when running
the app with Starman
[ Naveed Massjouni ]
* Dancer::Test function get_response is renamed to dancer_response
get_response still works but is deprecated

FIX a bug when using symlinks.

don't add multiple content-type to headers
* fix broken tests (they were testing incorrect content type)
[ Damien Krotkine ]
* FIX for issue GH#115
documentation about compression in Dancer::Deployment
[ David Precious ]
* Make the 'layout' param to the template keyword work as you'd expect and
allow you to set a custom layout to use, e.g.:
template 'templatename', {}, { layout => 'layoutname' };
[ Philippe Bruhat ]
* Make sure a plugin refuse to register a keyword twice
[ SawyerX ]
* Lots of documentation updates
* Dancer now logs caught crashes in rendering
(easier to debug Ajax routes)
Dancer 1.1901 (1.2RC0)
[ Franck Cuny ]
* implemented GH#120:
- methods {to,from}_{xml,json,yaml} accept more than one arguments. The
first argument is the data to transform. All the remainings arguments
are parameters to alter the behavior of the serializers. Refer to the
documentation for more informations.
* more tests added
[ Alexis Sukrieh ]
* load_plugin is DEPRECATED; 'use' should be used instead to load a plugin.
This is fixes the major issue with plugins about symbol exports that
didn't work well (issue #101).
* All paths built in a scaffolded application are dynamic, it's now
possible to move a scaffolded application after it's been generated.
(fixes issues #88,
* The auto_reload feature is now disabled by default due to too many
unsolved issues (it works most of the time, but some race conditions are
still present) This feature is still being working on, but it's now
flagged "experimental").
* Default log level in development environment is now 'core' in order to
provide more information.
* New scaffolded application design. More neutral and with lots of
information for a beginner, and links to useful material.
Based on the Ruby on Rails start page (kudos to the Rails team,
http://www.rubyonrails.org).
[ Boris Shomodjvarac ]
