2009-12-01- The ``repoze.bfg.templating`` module has been removed; it had beenChris McDonough
deprecated in 1.1 and hasn't possessed any APIs since before 1.0.

2009-11-29- Trying to use an HTTP method name string such as ``GET`` as aChris McDonough
``request_type`` predicate caused a startup time failure when it was encountered in imperative configuration or in a decorator (symptom: ``Type Error: Required specification must be a specification``). This now works again, although ``request_method`` is a more modern predicate.

2009-11-28- Unit tests which use ``zope.testing.cleanup.cleanUp`` for theChris McDonough
purpose of isolating tests from one another may now begin to fail due to lack of isolation between tests. Here's why: In repoze.bfg 1.1 and prior, the registry returned by ``repoze.bfg.threadlocal.get_current_registry`` when no other registry had been pushed on to the threadlocal stack was the ``zope.component.globalregistry.base`` global registry (aka the result of ``zope.component.getGlobalSiteManager()``). In repoze.bfg 1.2+, however, the registry returned in this situation is the new module-scope ``repoze.bfg.registry.global_registry`` object. The ``zope.testing.cleanup.cleanUp`` function clears the ``zope.component.globalregistry.base`` global registry unconditionally. However, it does not know about the ``repoze.bfg.registry.global_registry`` object, so it does not clear it. If you use the ``zope.testing.cleanup.cleanUp`` function in the ``setUp`` of test cases in your unit test suite instead of using the (more correct as of 1.1) ``repoze.bfg.testing.setUp``, you will need to replace all calls to ``zope.testing.cleanup.cleanUp`` with a call to ``repoze.bfg.testing.setUp``. If replacing all calls to ``zope.testing.cleanup.cleanUp`` with a call to ``repoze.bfg.testing.setUp`` is infeasible, you can put this bit of code somewhere that is executed exactly **once** (*not* for each test in a test suite; in the `` __init__.py`` of your package would be a reasonable place):: import zope.testing.cleanup from repoze.bfg.testing import setUp zope.testing.cleanup.addCleanUp(setUp) - When there is no "current registry" in the ``repoze.bfg.threadlocal.manager`` threadlocal data structure (this is the case when there is no "current request" or we're not in the midst of a ``r.b.testing.setUp``-bounded unit test), the ``.get`` method of the manager returns a data structure containing a *global* registry. In previous releases, this function returned the global Zope "base" registry: the result of ``zope.component.getGlobalSiteManager``, which is an instance of the ``zope.component.registry.Component`` class. In this release, however, the global registry returns a globally importable instance of the ``repoze.bfg.registry.Registry`` class. This registry instance can always be imported as ``repoze.bfg.registry.global_registry``. Effectively, this means that when you call ``repoze.bfg.threadlocal.get_current_registry`` when no request or ``setUp`` bounded unit test is in effect, you will always get back the global registry that lives in ``repoze.bfg.registry.global_registry``. It also means that :mod:`repoze.bfg` APIs that *call* ``get_current_registry`` will use this registry. This change was made because :mod:`repoze.bfg` now expects the registry it uses to have a slightly different API than a bare instance of ``zope.component.registry.Components``.

2009-11-27Remove ``zcml_configure`` API.Chris McDonough
2009-11-27Updates.Chris McDonough
2009-11-27- Add a section entitled "Test Set Up and Tear Down" to theChris McDonough
unittesting chapter.
2009-11-27- The ``repoze.bfg.testing.setUp`` function now accepts three extraChris McDonough
optional keyword arguments: ``registry``, ``request`` and ``hook_zca``. If the ``registry`` argument is not ``None``, the argument will be treated as the registry that is set as the "current registry" (it will be returned by ``repoze.bfg.threadlocal.get_current_registry``) for the duration of the test. If the ``registry`` argument is ``None`` (the default), a new registry is created and used for the duration of the test. The value of the ``request`` argument is used as the "current request" (it will be returned by ``repoze.bfg.threadlocal.get_current_request``) for the duration of the test; it defaults to ``None``. If ``hook_zca`` is ``True`` (the default), the ``zope.component.getSiteManager`` function will be hooked with a function that returns the value of ``registry`` (or the default-created registry if ``registry`` is ``None``) instead of the registry returned by ``zope.component.getGlobalSiteManager``, causing the Zope Component Architecture API (``getSiteManager``, ``getAdapter``, ``getUtility``, and so on) to use the registry we're using for testing instead of the global ZCA registry. - The ``repoze.bfg.testing.tearDown`` function now accepts an ``unhook_zca`` argument. If this argument is ``True`` (the default), ``zope.component.getSiteManager.reset()`` will be called, causing the "base" registry to once again start returnining the result of ``zope.component.getSiteManager``. - Remove hook_zca and unhook_zca methods from Configurator.
2009-11-26Trying to determine what the real bug is.Chris McDonough
2009-11-25- A dependency on the ``repoze.zcml`` package has been removed (itsChris McDonough
functionality is replaced internally).
2009-11-25- Replace martian with something simpler.Chris McDonough
2009-11-25Fixed issue where ``_query`` would be attempted URL encoded.Malthe Borch
2009-11-23- The ``repoze.bfg.interfaces.ITemplateRendererFactory`` interface wasChris McDonough
removed; it has become unused. - Change imperative API.
2009-11-23Updates.Chris McDonough
2009-11-23- The ``repoze.bfg.router.make_app`` function is now nominallyChris McDonough
deprecated. Its import and usage does not throw a warning, nor will it probably ever disappear. However, using a ``repoze.bfg.configuration.Configurator`` class is now the preferred way to generate a WSGI application. - The ``run.py`` module in various ``repoze.bfg`` ``paster`` templates now use a ``repoze.bfg.configuration.Configurator`` class instead of the (now-legacy) ``repoze.bfg.router.make_app`` function to produce a WSGI application.
2009-11-23- The internal ILogger utility named ``repoze.bfg.debug`` is now justChris McDonough
an IDebugLogger unnamed utility. A named utility with the old name is registered for b/w compat.
2009-11-23Save a function call.Chris McDonough
Update text files.
2009-11-23- Most uses of the ZCA threadlocal API (the ``getSiteManager``,Chris McDonough
``getUtility``, ``getAdapter``, ``getMultiAdapter`` threadlocal API) have been removed from the core. Instead, when a threadlocal is necessary, the core uses the ``repoze.bfg.threadlocal.get_current_registry`` API to obtain the registry.
2009-11-23- The ``repoze.bfg.scripting.get_root`` API now uses a 'real' WebObChris McDonough
request rather than a FakeRequest when it sets up the request as a threadlocal. - The ``repoze.bfg.traversal.traverse`` API now uses a 'real' WebOb request rather than a FakeRequest when it calls the traverser. - The ``repoze.bfg.request.FakeRequest`` class has been removed. ``repoze.bfg.url.route_url`` ``repoze.bfg.url.model_url`` ``repoze.bfg.url.static_url`` ``repoze.bfg.traversal.virtual_root`` Each of these functions now expects to be called with a request object that has a ``registry`` attribute which represents the current ZCA registry. Get rid of extraneous uses of ZCA threadlocal API.
2009-11-23 ``repoze.bfg.security.has_permission``Chris McDonough
``repoze.bfg.security.authenticated_userid`` ``repoze.bfg.security.effective_principals`` ``repoze.bfg.security.view_execution_permitted`` ``repoze.bfg.security.remember`` ``repoze.bfg.security.forget`` Each of these functions now expects to be called with a request object that has a ``registry`` attribute which represents the current ZCA registry. Previously these functions used the ZCA threadlocal API to get the current registry.
2009-11-21Changelog.Chris McDonough
2009-11-20Passable stab at supporting an imperative mode.Chris McDonough
ZCML directives which accept paths now register absolute paths, while imperative registrations now register resource specifications.

2009-11-19Formatting and grammar.Chris McDonough
2009-11-19- Each of the ``repoze.bfg.view.render_view``,Chris McDonough
``repoze.bfg.view.render_view_to_iterable``, ``repoze.bfg.view.render_view_to_response``, ``repoze.bfg.view.append_slash_notfound_view``, ``repoze.bfg.view.default_notfound_view``, ``repoze.bfg.view.default_forbidden_view``, and the ``repoze.bfg.configuration.rendered_response`` functions now expects to be called with a request object that has a ``registry`` attribute which represents the current ZCA registry. This should only be a problem when passing a custom request object to code which ends up calling these functions in a unit test. To retrofit tests that end up calling these functions which expect to be able to use a non-registry-aware request object, use the ``repoze.bfg.threadlocal.get_current_request`` API in the test to create the request; this will return a ``repoze.bfg.testing.DummyRequest`` that has the current registry as its ``registry`` attribute. Alternatively, use the ``repoze.bfg.threadlocal.get_current_registry`` API: call this function and add an attribute to your unit test request object named ``registry`` with the result. - The ``repoze.bfg.view.derive_view`` callable has been removed. Use ``repoze.bfg.configuration.Configurator.derive_view`` instead (still not an API, however).
2009-11-19Typo.Chris McDonough
2009-11-19- The ACL authorization policy debugging output whenChris McDonough
``debug_authorization`` consule debugging output was turned on wasn't as clear as it could have been when a view execution was denied due to an authorization failure resulting from the set of principals passed never having matched any ACE in any ACL in the lineage. Now in this case, we report ``<default deny>`` as the ACE value and either the root ACL or ``<No ACL found on any object in model lineage>`` if no ACL was found.
2009-11-19- The ``repoze.bfg.view.rendered_response`` function has been moved toChris McDonough
``repoze.bfg.configuration.rendered_response``. - The ``repoze.bfg.view.decorate_view`` function has been moved to ``repoze.bfg.configuration.decorate_view``. - The ``repoze.bfg.view.MultiView`` class has been moved to ``repoze.bfg.configuration.MultiView``. - Fix argument ordering bug in r.b.configuration.Configurator.resource.

2009-11-10TemplatesChris McDonough
--------- - Remove ``ez_setup.py`` and its import from all paster templates, samples, and tutorials for ``distribute`` compatibility. The documentation already explains how to install virtualenv (which will include some ``setuptools`` package), so these files, imports and usages were superfluous. Deprecations ------------ - The ``options`` kw arg to the ``repoze.bfg.router.make_app`` function is deprecated. In its place is the keyword argument ``settings``. The ``options`` keyword continues to work, and a deprecation warning is not emitted when it is detected. However, the paster templates, code samples, and documentation now make reference to ``settings`` rather than ``options``. This change/deprecation was mainly made for purposes of clarity and symmetry with the ``get_settings()`` API and dicussions of "settings" in various places in the docs: we want to use the same name to refer to the same thing everywhere.
