2009-11-10More usage of setup and teardown.Chris McDonough
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.

2009-11-01- Reinstate ``renderer`` alias for ``view_renderer`` in theChris McDonough
``<route>`` ZCML directive (in-the-wild 1.1a bw compat). - ``bfg_routesalchemy`` paster template: change ``<route>`` declarations: rename ``renderer`` attribute to ``view_renderer``. - In ``<route>`` declarations in tutorial ZCML, rename ``renderer`` attribute to ``view_renderer`` (fwd compat).
2009-10-30Update documentation after root factory changes.Chris McDonough
2009-10-15FeaturesChris McDonough
-------- - Add ``setUp`` and ``tearDown`` functions to the ``repoze.bfg.testing`` module. Using ``setUp`` in a test setup and ``tearDown`` in a test teardown is now the recommended way to do component registry setup and teardown. Previously, it was recommended that a single function named ``repoze.bfg.testing.cleanUp`` be called in both the test setup and tear down. ``repoze.bfg.testing.cleanUp`` still exists (and will exist "forever" due to its widespread use); it is now just an alias for ``repoze.bfg.testing.setUp`` and is nominally deprecated. - The BFG component registry is now available in view and event subscriber code as an attribute of the request ie. ``request.registry``. This fact is currently undocumented except for this note, because BFG developers never need to interact with the registry directly anywhere else. - The BFG component registry now inherits from ``dict``, meaning that it can optionally be used as a simple dictionary. *Component* registrations performed against it via e.g. ``registerUtility``, ``registerAdapter``, and similar API methods are kept in a completely separate namespace than its dict members, so using the its component API methods won't effect the keys and values in the dictionary namespace. Likewise, though the component registry "happens to be" a dictionary, use of mutating dictionary methods such as ``__setitem__`` will have no influence on any component registrations made against it. In other words, the registry object you obtain via e.g. ``repoze.bfg.threadlocal.get_current_registry`` or ``request.registry`` happens to be both a component registry and a dictionary, but using its component-registry API won't impact data added to it via its dictionary API and vice versa. This is a forward compatibility move based on the goals of "marco". Documentation ------------- - Various tutorial test modules updated to use ``repoze.bfg.testing.setUp`` and ``repoze.bfg.testing.tearDown`` methods in order to encourage this as best practice going forward. Backwards Incompatibilities --------------------------- - Importing ``getSiteManager`` and ``get_registry`` from ``repoze.bfg.registry`` is no longer supported. These imports were deprecated in repoze.bfg 1.0. Import of ``getSiteManager`` should be done as ``from zope.component import getSiteManager``. Import of ``get_registry`` should be done as ``from repoze.bfg.threadlocal import get_current_registry``. This was done to prevent a circular import dependency. - Code bases which alternately invoke both ``zope.testing.cleanup.cleanUp`` and ``repoze.bfg.testing.cleanUp`` (treating them equivalently, using them interchangeably) in the setUp/tearDown of unit tests will begin to experience test failures due to lack of test isolation. The "right" mechanism is ``repoze.bfg.testing.cleanUp`` (or the combination of ``repoze.bfg.testing.setUp`` and ``repoze.bfg.testing.tearDown``). but a good number of legacy codebases will use ``zope.testing.cleanup.cleanUp`` instead. We support ``zope.testing.cleanup.cleanUp`` but not in combination with ``repoze.bfg.testing.cleanUp`` in the same codebase. You should use one or the other test cleanup function in a single codebase, but not both. Internal -------- - Created new ``repoze.bfg.configuration`` module which assumes responsibilities previously held by the ``repoze.bfg.registry`` and ``repoze.bfg.router`` modules (avoid a circular import dependency). - The result of the ``zope.component.getSiteManager`` function in unit tests set up with ``repoze.bfg.testing.cleanUp`` or ``repoze.bfg.testing.setUp`` will be an instance of ``repoze.bfg.registry.Registry`` instead of the global ``zope.component.globalregistry.base`` registry. This also means that the threadlocal ZCA API functions such as ``getAdapter`` and ``getUtility`` as well as internal BFG machinery (such as ``model_url`` and ``route_url``) will consult this registry within unit tests. This is a forward compatibility move based on the goals of "marco". - Removed ``repoze.bfg.testing.addCleanUp`` function and associated module-scope globals. This was never an API.

arguments to ``repoze.bfg.router.make_app``. Instead, developers should use the various authentication policy ZCML directives (``repozewho1authenticationpolicy``, ``remoteuserauthenticationpolicy`` and ``authtktauthenticationpolicy``) and the `aclauthorizationpolicy`` authorization policy directive as described in the changes to the "Security" narrative documentation chapter and the wiki tutorials.
