2008-11-07 FeaturesChris McDonough
- Added a ``repoze.bfg.testing`` module to attempt to make it slightly easier to write unittest-based automated tests of BFG applications. Information about this class is in the documentation. - The default template renderer now supports testing better by looking for ``ITestingTemplateRenderer`` using a relative pathname. This is exposed indirectly through the API named ``registerTemplate`` in ``repoze.bfg.testing``. Deprecations - The names ``repoze.bfg.interfaces.ITemplate`` , ``repoze.bfg.interfaces.ITemplateFactory`` and ``repoze.bfg.interfaces.INodeTemplate`` have been deprecated. These should now be imported as ``repoze.bfg.interfaces.ITemplateRenderer`` and ``repoze.bfg.interfaces.ITemplateRendererFactory``, and ``INodeTemplateRenderer`` respectively. - The name ``repoze.bfg.chameleon_zpt.ZPTTemplateFactory`` is deprecated. Use ``repoze.bfg.chameleon_zpt.ZPTTemplateRenderer``. - The name ``repoze.bfg.chameleon_genshi.GenshiTemplateFactory`` is deprecated. Use ``repoze.bfg.chameleon_genshi.GenshiTemplateRenderer``. - The name ``repoze.bfg.xslt.XSLTemplateFactory`` is deprecated. Use ``repoze.bfg.xslt.XSLTemplateRenderer``.
2008-10-03 Docs Chris McDonough
- An "Environment and Configuration" chapter was added to the narrative portion of the documentation. Features - Ensure bfg doesn't generate warnings when running under Python 2.6. - The environment variable ``BFG_RELOAD_TEMPLATES`` is now available (serves the same purpose as ``reload_templates`` in the config file). - A new configuration file option ``debug_authorization`` was added. This turns on printing of security authorization debug statements to ``sys.stderr``. The ``BFG_DEBUG_AUTHORIZATION`` environment variable was also added; this performs the same duty. Bug Fixes - The environment variable ``BFG_SECURITY_DEBUG`` did not always work. It has been renamed to ``BFG_DEBUG_AUTHORIZATION`` and fixed. Deprecations - A deprecation warning is now issued when old API names from the ``repoze.bfg.templates`` module are imported. Backwards incompatibilities - The ``BFG_SECURITY_DEBUG`` environment variable was renamed to ``BFG_DEBUG_AUTHORIZATION``.
2008-09-28 FeaturesChris McDonough
- A ``repoze.bfg.location`` API module was added. Backwards incompatibilities - Applications must now use the ``repoze.bfg.interfaces.ILocation`` interface rather than ``zope.location.interfaces.ILocation`` to represent that a model object is "location-aware". We've removed a dependency on ``zope.location`` for cleanliness purposes: as new versions of zope libraries are released which have improved dependency information, getting rid of our dependence on ``zope.location`` will prevent a newly installed repoze.bfg application from requiring the ``zope.security``, egg, which not truly used at all in a "stock" repoze.bfg setup. These dependencies are still required by the stack at this time; this is purely a futureproofing move. The security and model documentation for previous versions of ``repoze.bfg`` recommended using the ``zope.location.interfaces.ILocation`` interface to represent that a model object is "location-aware". This documentation has been changed to reflect that this interface should now be imported from ``repoze.bfg.interfaces.ILocation`` instead.

2008-09-03 - Add startup process docs.Chris McDonough
2008-09-01 - New API module: ``repoze.bfg.view``. This module contains the functionsChris McDonough
named ``render_view_to_response``, ``render_view_to_iterable`` and ``is_response``, which are documented in the API docs. These features aid programmatic (non-request-driven) view execution.

2008-08-11repoze.shootout.Chris McDonough
2008-08-04 - Add a ``request_type`` attribute to the available attributes of aChris McDonough
``bfg:view`` configure.zcml element. This attribute will have a value which is a dotted Python path, pointing at an interface. If the request object implements this interface when the view lookup is performed, the appropriate view will be called. - Remove "template only" views. These were just confusing and were never documented.

2008-07-31 - Add event sends for INewRequest and INewResponse. See theChris McDonough
events.rst chapter in the documentation's ``api`` directory.
