2009-01-22- ``repoze.bfg.traversal.split_path`` now also handles decodingChris McDonough
path segments to unicode (for speed, because its results are LRU cached). - ``repoze.bfg.traversal.step`` was made a method of the ModelGraphTraverser.
2009-01-22- The ``unicode_path_segments`` configuration variable and theChris McDonough
``BFG_UNICODE_PATH_SEGMENTS`` configuration variable have been removed. Path segments are now always passed to model ``__getitem__`` methods as unicode. "True" has been the default for this setting since 0.5.4, but changing this configuration setting to false allowed you to go back to passing raw path element strings to model ``__getitem__`` methods. This services a speed goal (we get about +80 req/s by removing the check), and it's clearer just to always expect unicode path segments in model ``__getitem__`` methods.

2009-01-22- The Allowed and Denied classes in ``repoze.bfg.security`` now areChris McDonough
lazier about constructing the representation of a reason message for speed; ``repoze.bfg.view_execution_permitted`` takes advantage of this. - The ``is_response`` check was sped up by about half at the expense of making its code slightly uglier.
2009-01-22 If no subscribers are registered via ``registerHandler`` orChris McDonough
``registerSubscriptionAdapter``, ``notify`` is a noop for speed.
2009-01-20- Tease out an extra 4% performance boost by changing the Router;Chris McDonough
instead of using imported ZCA APIs, use the same APIs directly against the registry that is an attribute of the Router. As a result, the registry used by BFG is now a subclass of ``zope.component.registry.Components`` (defined as ``repoze.bfg.registry.Registry``); it has a ``notify`` method.

2009-01-16- The ``repoze.bfg.view.static`` helper now usesChris McDonough
``webob.Request.get_response`` to do its work rather than relying on howgrown WSGI code.
2009-01-16FeaturesChris McDonough
-------- - The functionality of ``repoze.bfg.convention`` has been merged into the core. Applications which make use of ``repoze.bfg.convention`` will continue to work indefinitely, but it is recommended that apps stop depending upon it. To do so, substitute imports of ``repoze.bfg.convention.bfg_view`` with imports of ``repoze.bfg.view.bfg_view``, and change the stanza in ZCML from ``<convention package=".">`` to ``<grok package=".">``. As a result of the merge, bfg has grown a new dependency: ``martian``. - View functions which use the pushpage decorator are now pickleable (meaning their use won't prevent a ``configure.zcml.cache`` file from being written to disk). Implementation Changes ---------------------- - The ``wsgiapp`` decorator now uses ``webob.Request.get_response`` to do its work rather than relying on howgrown WSGI code.
2009-01-15- Instead of invariably using ``webob.Request`` as the "requestChris McDonough
factory" (e.g. in the ``Router`` class) and ``webob.Response`` and the "response factory" (e.g. in ``render_template_to_response``), allow both to be overridden via a ZCML utility hook. See the "Using ZCML Hooks" chapter of the documentation for more information.
2009-01-13Prep for 0.6.2.Chris McDonough
2009-01-12- An interface specific to the HTTP verb (GET/PUT/POST/DELETE/HEAD) isChris McDonough
attached to each request object on ingress. The HTTP-verb-related interfaces are defined in ``repoze.bfg.interfaces`` and are ``IGETRequest``, ``IPOSTRequest``, ``IPUTRequest``, ``IDELETERequest`` and ``IHEADRequest``. These interfaces can be specified as the ``request_type`` attribute of a bfg view declaration. A view naming a specific HTTP-verb-matching interface will be found only if the view is defined with a request_type that matches the HTTP verb in the incoming request. The more general ``IRequest`` interface can be used as the request_type to catch all requests (and this is indeed the default). All requests implement ``IRequest``. The HTTP-verb-matching idea was pioneered by `repoze.bfg.restrequest <http://pypi.python.org/pypi/repoze.bfg.restrequest/1.0.1>`_ . That package is no longer required, but still functions fine.
2009-01-12- Make the (internal) thread local registry manager maintain a stackChris McDonough
of registries in order to make it possible to call one BFG application from inside another.

2009-01-11- Improve test coverage.Chris McDonough
- Remove old cold which attempts to recover from trying to unpickle a ``z3c.pt`` template; Chameleon has been the templating engine for a good long time now. Running repoze.bfg against a sandbox that has pickled ``z3c.pt`` templates it will now just fail with an unpickling error, but can be fixed by deleting the template cache files.

2009-01-11Merge router-simplify branch. Changelog below.Chris McDonough
Bug Fixes --------- - Fix a bug where the Paste configuration's ``unicode_path_segments`` (and os.environ's ``BFG_UNICODE_PATH_SEGMENTS``) may have been defaulting to false in some circumstances. It now always defaults to true, matching the documentation and intent. - The ``repoze.bfg.traversal.find_model`` API did not work properly when passed a ``path`` argument which was unicode and contained high-order bytes when the ``unicode_path_segments`` or ``BFG_UNICODE_PATH_SEGMENTS`` configuration variables were "true". - A new module was added: ``repoze.bfg.settings``. This contains deployment-settings-related code. Behavior Changes ---------------- - The ``make_app`` callable within ``repoze.bfg.router`` now registers the ``root_policy`` argument as a utility (unnamed, using the new ``repoze.bfg.interfaces.IRootFactory`` as a provides interface) rather than passing it as the first argument to the ``repoze.bfg.router.Router`` class. As a result the ``repoze.bfg.router.Router`` router class only accepts a single argument: ``registry``. The ``repoze.bfg.router.Router`` class retrieves the root policy via a utility lookup now. The ``repoze.bfg.router.make_app`` API also now performs some important application registrations that were previously handled inside ``repoze.bfg.registry.makeRegistry``. - The ``repoze.bfg.settings.Settings`` class (an instance of which is registered as a utility providing ``repoze.bfg.interfaces.ISettings`` when any application is started) now automatically calls ``repoze.bfg.settings.get_options`` on the options passed to its constructor. This means that usage of ``get_options`` within an application's ``make_app`` function is no longer required (the "raw" ``options`` dict or None may be passed). Deprecations ------------ - Moved the ``repoze.bfg.registry.Settings`` class. This has been moved to ``repoze.bfg.settings.Settings``. A deprecation warning is issued when it is imported from the older location. - Moved the ``repoze.bfg.registry.get_options`` function This has been moved to ``repoze.bfg.settings.get_options``. A deprecation warning is issued when it is imported from the older location. - The ``repoze.bfg.interfaces.IRootPolicy`` interface was renamed within the interfaces package. It has been renamed to ``IRootFactory``. A deprecation warning is issued when it is imported from the older location.

2009-01-07- Add a method named ``assert_`` to the DummyTemplateRenderer. ThisChris McDonough
method accepts keyword arguments. Each key/value pair in the keyword arguments causes an assertion to be made that the renderer received this key with a value equal to the asserted value. - Projects generated by the paster templates now use the ``DummyTemplateRenderer.assert_`` method in their view tests.

2009-01-06 - A ``static`` helper class was added to the ``repoze.bfg.views``Chris McDonough
module. Instances of this class are willing to act as BFG views which return static resources using files on disk. See the :mod:`repoze.bfg.view` docs for more info.
2009-01-05 New ModulesChris McDonough
- A new module ``repoze.bfg.url`` has been added. It contains the ``model_url`` API (moved from ``repoze.bfg.traversal``) and an implementation of ``urlencode`` (like Python's ``urllib.urlencode``) which can handle Unicode keys and values in parameters to the ``query`` argument. Deprecations - The ``model_url`` function has been moved from ``repoze.bfg.traversal`` into ``repoze.bfg.url``. It can still be imported from ``repoze.bfg.traversal`` but an import from ``repoze.bfg.traversal`` will emit a DeprecationWarning. Features - The ``repoze.bfg.url.model_url`` API (nee' ``repoze.bfg.traversal.model_url``) now accepts and honors a keyword argument named ``query``. The value of this argument will be used to compose a query string, which will be attached to the generated URL before it is returned. See the API docs (in the docs directory or `on the web <http://static.repoze.org/bfgdocs>`_) for more information.

``zope.component.interface.provideInterface`` for the ``for`` interface. We don't support ``provideInterface`` in BFG because it mutates the global registry.

2008-12-21 Backwards Incompatibilities (Major)Chris McDonough
- Rather than prepare the "stock" implementations of the ZCML directives from the ``zope.configuration`` package for use under :mod:`repoze.bfg`, :mod:`repoze.bfg` now makes available the implementations of directives from the ``repoze.zcml`` package (see http://static.repoze.org/zcmldocs). As a result, the :mod:`repoze.bfg` package now depends on the ``repoze.zcml`` package, and no longer depends directly on the ``zope.component``, ``zope.configuration``, ``zope.interface``, or ``zope.proxy`` packages. The primary reason for this change is to enable us to eventually reduce the number of inappropriate :mod:`repoze.bfg` Zope package dependencies, as well as to shed features of dependent package directives that don't make sense for :mod:`repoze.bfg`. Note that currently the set of requirements necessary to use bfg has not changed. This is due to inappropriate Zope package requirements in ``chameleon.zpt``, which will hopefully be remedied soon. - BFG applications written prior to this release which expect the "stock" ``zope.component`` ZCML directive implementations (e.g. ``adapter``, ``subscriber``, or ``utility``) to function now must either 1) include the ``meta.zcml`` file from ``zope.component`` manually (e.g. ``<include package="zope.component" file="meta.zcml">``) and include the ``zope.security`` package as an ``install_requires`` dependency or 2) change the ZCML in their applications to use the declarations from `repoze.zcml <http://static.repoze.org/zcmldocs/>`_ instead of the stock declarations. ``repoze.zcml`` only makes available the ``adapter``, ``subscriber`` and ``utility`` directives. - The ``http://namespaces.repoze.org/bfg`` XML namespace is now the default XML namespace in ZCML for paster-generated applications. - The copies of BFG's ``meta.zcml`` and ``configure.zcml`` were removed from the root of the ``repoze.bfg`` package. In 0.3.6, a new package named ``repoze.bfg.includes`` was added, which contains the "correct" copies of these ZCML files; the ones that were removed were for backwards compatibility purposes. Other - The minimum requirement for ``chameleon.core`` is now 1.0b13. The minimum requirement for ``chameleon.zpt`` is now 1.0b7. The minimum requirement for ``chameleon.genshi`` is now 1.0b2.
