See https://github.com/Pylons/pyramid/issues/394. + +Backwards Incompatibilities +--------------------------- + +- The ``path_info`` route and view predicates now match against + ``request.upath_info`` (Unicode) rather than ``request.path_info`` + (indeterminate value based on Python 3 vs. Python 2). This has to be done + to normalize matching on Python 2 and Python 3. + +1.3a4 (2012-01-05) +================== + +Features +-------- + +- New API: ``pyramid.request.Request.set_property``. Add lazy property + descriptors to a request without changing the request factory. New + properties may be reified, effectively caching the value for the lifetime + of the instance. Common use-cases for this would be to get a database + connection for the request or identify the current user. + +- Use the ``waitress`` WSGI server instead of ``wsgiref`` in scaffolding. + +Bug Fixes +--------- + +- The documentation of ``pyramid.events.subscriber`` indicated that using it + as a decorator with no arguments like this:: + + @subscriber() + def somefunc(event): + pass + + Would register ``somefunc`` to receive all events sent via the registry, + but this was untrue. Instead, it would receive no events at all. This has + now been fixed and the code matches the documentation. See also + https://github.com/Pylons/pyramid/issues/386 + +- Literal portions of route patterns were not URL-quoted when ``route_url`` + or ``route_path`` was used to generate a URL or path. + +- The result of ``route_path`` or ``route_url`` might have been ``unicode`` + or ``str`` depending on the input. It is now guaranteed to always be + ``str``. + +- URL matching when the pattern contained non-ASCII characters in literal + parts was indeterminate. Now the pattern supplied to ``add_route`` is + assumed to be either: a ``unicode`` value, or a ``str`` value that contains + only ASCII characters. If you now want to match the path info from a URL + that contains high order characters, you can pass the Unicode + representation of the decoded path portion in the pattern. + +- When using a ``traverse=`` route predicate, traversal would fail with a + URLDecodeError if there were any high-order characters in the traversal + pattern or in the matched dynamic segments. + +- Using a dynamic segment named ``traverse`` in a route pattern like this:: + + config.add_route('trav_route', 'traversal/{traverse:.*}') + + Would cause a ``UnicodeDecodeError`` when the route was matched and the + matched portion of the URL contained any high-order characters. See + https://github.com/Pylons/pyramid/issues/385 . + +- When using a ``*traverse`` stararg in a route pattern, a URL that matched + that possessed a ``@@`` in its name (signifying a view name) would be + inappropriately quoted by the traversal machinery during traversal, + resulting in the view not being found properly. See + https://github.com/Pylons/pyramid/issues/382 and + https://github.com/Pylons/pyramid/issues/375 . + +Backwards Incompatibilities +--------------------------- + +- String values passed to ``route_url`` or ``route_path`` that are meant to + replace "remainder" matches will now be URL-quoted except for embedded + slashes. For example:: + + config.add_route('remain', '/foo*remainder') + request.route_path('remain', remainder='abc / def') + # -> '/foo/abc%20/%20def' + + Previously string values passed as remainder replacements were tacked on + untouched, without any URL-quoting. But this doesn't really work logically + if the value passed is Unicode (raw unicode cannot be placed in a URL or in + a path) and it is inconsistent with the rest of the URL generation + machinery if the value is a string (it won't be quoted unless by the + caller). + + Some folks will have been relying on the older behavior to tack on query + string elements and anchor portions of the URL; sorry, you'll need to + change your code to use the ``_query`` and/or ``_anchor`` arguments to + ``route_path`` or ``route_url`` to do this now. + +- If you pass a bytestring that contains non-ASCII characters to + ``add_route`` as a pattern, it will now fail at startup time. Use Unicode + instead. + +1.3a3 (2011-12-21) +================== Features -------- @@ -8,6 +115,11 @@ Features documented in the "Command-Line Pyramid" chapter in the section entitled "Invoking a Request". +- Add undocumented ``__discriminator__`` API to derived view callables. + e.g. ``adapters.lookup(...).__discriminator__(context, request)``.
