2010-10-25first pass at converting bfg to pyramid namespaceChris McDonough
2010-09-14- The ``add_route`` method of a Configurator now accepts aChris McDonough
``pregenerator`` argument. The pregenerator for the resulting route is called by ``route_url`` in order to adjust the set of arguments passed to it by the user for special purposes, such as Pylons 'subdomain' support. It will influence the URL returned by ``route_url``. See the ``repoze.bfg.interfaces.IRoutePregenerator`` interface for more information.
2010-09-12- The BFG router now emits an additional event unconditionally at theChris McDonough
end of request processing: ``repoze.bfg.interfaces.IFinishedRequest``. This event is meant to be used when it is necessary to perform unconditional cleanup after request processing. See the ``repoze.bfg.events.FinishedRequest`` class documentation for more information. - The ``repoze.bfg.interfaces.IWSGIApplicationCreatedEvent`` event interface was renamed to ``repoze.bfg.interfaces.IApplicationCreated``. Likewise, the ``repoze.bfg.events.WSGIApplicationCreatedEvent`` class was renamed to ``repoze.bfg.events.ApplicationCreated``. The older aliases will continue to work indefinitely. - The ``repoze.bfg.interfaces.IAfterTraversal`` event interface was renamed to ``repoze.bfg.interfaces.IContextFound``. Likewise, the ``repoze.bfg.events.AfterTraveral`` class was renamed to ``repoze.bfg.events.ContextFound``. The older aliases will continue to work indefinitely.
2010-09-09FeaturesChris McDonough
-------- - In support of making it easier to configure applications which are "secure by default", a default permission feature was added. If supplied, the default permission is used as the permission string to all view registrations which don't otherwise name a permission. These APIs are in support of that: - A new constructor argument was added to the Configurator: ``default_permission``. - A new method was added to the Configurator: ``set_default_permission``. - A new ZCML directive was added: ``default_permission``. Documentation ------------- - Added documentation for the ``default_permission`` ZCML directive. - Added documentation for the ``default_permission`` constructor value and the ``set_default_permission`` method in the Configurator API documentation. - Added a new section to the "security" chapter named "Setting a Default Permission". - Document ``renderer_globals_factory`` and ``request_factory`` arguments to Configurator constructor.
2010-09-09- The ``traverse`` route predicate could not successfully generate aChris McDonough
traversal path.
2010-09-08- Add an API to the ``Configurator`` named ``get_routes_mapper``.Chris McDonough
This returns an object implementing the ``IRoutesMapper`` interface.
2010-09-08- The ``repoze.bfg.urldispatch.Route`` constructor (not an API) nowChris McDonough
accepts a different ordering of arguments. Previously it was ``(pattern, name, factory=None, predicates=())``. It is now ``(name, pattern, factory=None, predicates=())``. This is in support of consistency with ``configurator.add_route``. - The ``repoze.bfg.urldispatch.RoutesMapper.connect`` method (not an API) now accepts a different ordering of arguments. Previously it was ``(pattern, name, factory=None, predicates=())``. It is now ``(name, pattern, factory=None, predicates=())``. This is in support of consistency with ``configurator.add_route``. - The ``repoze.bfg.urldispatch.RoutesMapper`` object now has a ``get_route`` method which returns a single Route object or ``None``. - A new interface ``repoze.bfg.interfaces.IRoute`` was added. The ``repoze.bfg.urldispatch.Route`` object implements this interface. - The canonical attribute for accessing the routing pattern from a route object is now ``pattern`` rather than ``path``. - The argument to ``repoze.bfg.configuration.Configurator.add_route`` which was previously called ``path`` is now called ``pattern`` for better explicability. For backwards compatibility purposes, passing a keyword argument named ``path`` to ``add_route`` will still work indefinitely. - The ``path`` attribute to the ZCML ``route`` directive is now named ``pattern`` for better explicability. The older ``path`` attribute will continue to work indefinitely. - All narrative, API, and tutorial docs which referred to a route pattern as a ``path`` have now been updated to refer to them as a ``pattern``. - The routesalchemy template has been updated to use ``pattern`` in its route declarations rather than ``path``.
2010-09-07- Use ``hash()`` rather than ``id()`` when computing the "phash" of aChris McDonough
custom route/view predicate in order to allow the custom predicate some control over which predicates are "equal". - Use ``response.headerlist.append`` instead of ``response.headers.add`` in ``repoze.bfg.request.add_global_response_headers`` in case the response is not a WebOb response.
2010-09-07- Fix a bug in ``repoze.bfg.url.static_url`` URL generation: if twoChris McDonough
resource specifications were used to create two separate static views, but they shared a common prefix, it was possible that ``static_url`` would generate an incorrect URL. - Fix another bug in ``repoze.bfg.static_url`` URL generation: too many slashes in generated URL.
2010-09-05- The route pattern registered internally for a a local "static view"Chris McDonough
(either via the ``static`` ZCML directive or via the ``add_static_view`` method of the configurator) was incorrect. It was regsistered for e.g. ``static*traverse``, while it should have been registered for ``static/*traverse``. Symptom: two static views could not reliably be added to a system when they both shared the same path prefix (e.g. ``/static`` and ``/static2``).
2010-09-05- Each of the follow methods of the Configurator now allow theChris McDonough
below-named arguments to be passed as "dotted name strings" (e.g. "foo.bar.baz") rather than as actual implementation objects that must be imported: setup_registry root_factory, authentication_policy, authorization_policy, debug_logger, locale_negotiator, request_factory, renderer_globals_factory add_subscriber subscriber, iface derive_view view add_view view, for_, context, request_type, containment add_route() view, view_for, factory, for_, view_context scan package add_renderer factory set_forbidden_view view set_notfound_view view set_request_factory factory set_renderer_globals_factory() factory set_locale_negotiator negotiator testing_add_subscriber event_iface

2010-08-13- The newChris McDonough
:meth"`repoze.bfg.configuration.Configurator.absolute_resource_spec` method resolves a potentially relative :term:`resource specification` string into an absolute version.
2010-08-13- The Configurator now accepts a dotted name *string* to a package asChris McDonough
a ``package`` constructor argument. The ``package`` argument was previously required to be a package *object* (not a dotted name string). - The ``repoze.bfg.configuration.Configurator.with_package`` method was added. This method returns a new Configurator using the same application registry as the configurator object it is called upon. The new configurator is created afresh with its ``package`` constructor argument set to the value passed to ``with_package``. This feature will make it easier for future BFG versions to allow dotted names as arguments in places where currently only object references are allowed (the work to allow dotted names isntead of object references everywhere has not yet been done, however). - The ``repoze.bfg.configuration.Configurator.maybe_dotted`` method resolves a Python dotted name string supplied as its ``dotted`` argument to a global Python object. If the value cannot be resolved, a ``repoze.bfg.configuration.ConfigurationError`` is raised. If the value supplied as ``dotted`` is not a string, the value is returned unconditionally without any resolution attempted.
2010-08-09forward compat test fixes for when we package can be stringChris McDonough
2010-08-08- New public interface: ``repoze.bfg.exceptions.IExceptionResponse``.Chris McDonough
This interface is provided by all internal exception classes (such as ``repoze.bfg.exceptions.NotFound`` and ``repoze.bfg.exceptions.Forbidden``), instances of which are both exception objects and can behave as WSGI response objects. This interface is made public so that exception classes which are also valid WSGI response factories can be configured to implement them or exception instances which are also or response instances can be configured to provide them. - New API class: ``repoze.bfg.view.AppendSlashNotFoundViewFactory`` (undoes previous custom_notfound_view on request passsed to append_slash_notfound_view). - Previously, two default view functions were registered at Configurator setup (one for ``repoze.bfg.exceptions.NotFound`` named ``default_notfound_view`` and one for ``repoze.bfg.exceptions.Forbidden`` named ``default_forbidden_view``) to render internal exception responses. Those default view functions have been removed, replaced with a generic default view function which is registered at Configurator setup for the ``repoze.bfg.interfaces.IExceptionResponse`` interface that simply returns the exception instance; the ``NotFound` and ``Forbidden`` classes are now still exception factories but they are also response factories which generate instances that implement the new ``repoze.bfg.interfaces.IExceptionResponse`` interface.
2010-08-02add infrastructure for resolving dotted namesChris McDonough
2010-07-28- When adding a view for a route which did not yet exist ("did not yetChris McDonough
exist" meaning, temporally, a view was added with a route name for a route which had not yet been added via add_route), the value of the ``custom_predicate`` argument to ``add_view`` was lost. Symptom: wrong view matches when using URL dispatch and custom view predicates together.

2010-07-24Remove match_val feature: it's a pretty nuisanceChris McDonough
2010-07-24- A new method of the ``Configurator`` exists:Chris McDonough
``set_request_factory``. If used, this method will set the factory used by the :mod:`repoze.bfg` router to create all request objects. - The ``Configurator`` constructor takes an additional argument: ``request_factory``. If used, this argument will set the factory used by the :mod:`repoze.bfg` router to create all request objects. - The ``Hooks`` narrative chapter now contains a section about changing the request factory.
2010-07-23- New argument to ``repoze.bfg.configuration.Configurator.add_route``Chris McDonough
and the ``route`` ZCML directive: ``traverse``. If you would like to cause the ``context`` to be something other than the ``root`` object when this route matches, you can spell a traversal pattern as the ``traverse`` argument. This traversal pattern will be used as the traversal path: traversal will begin at the root object implied by this route (either the global root, or the object returned by the ``factory`` associated with this route). The syntax of the ``traverse`` argument is the same as it is for ``path``. For example, if the ``path`` provided is ``articles/:article/edit``, and the ``traverse`` argument provided is ``/:article``, when a request comes in that causes the route to match in such a way that the ``article`` match value is '1' (when the request URI is ``/articles/1/edit``), the traversal path will be generated as ``/1``. This means that the root object's ``__getitem__`` will be called with the name ``1`` during the traversal phase. If the ``1`` object exists, it will become the ``context`` of the request. The Traversal narrative has more information about traversal. If the traversal path contains segment marker names which are not present in the path argument, a runtime error will occur. The ``traverse`` pattern should not contain segment markers that do not exist in the ``path``. A similar combining of routing and traversal is available when a route is matched which contains a ``*traverse`` remainder marker in its path. The ``traverse`` argument allows you to associate route patterns with an arbitrary traversal path without using a a ``*traverse`` remainder marker; instead you can use other match information. Note that the ``traverse`` argument is ignored when attached to a route that has a ``*traverse`` remainder marker in its path.
2010-07-21- A new internal exception class (*not* an API) namedChris McDonough
``repoze.bfg.exceptions.PredicateMismatch`` now exists. This exception is currently raised when no constituent view of a multiview can be called (due to no predicate match). Previously, in this situation, a ``repoze.bfg.exceptions.NotFound`` was raised. We provide backwards compatibility for code that expected a ``NotFound`` to be raised when no predicates match by causing ``repoze.bfg.exceptions.PredicateMismatch`` to inherit from ``NotFound``. This will cause any exception view registered for ``NotFound`` to be called when a predicate mismatch occurs, as was the previous behavior. There is however, one perverse case that will expose a backwards incompatibility. If 1) you had a view that was registered as a member of a multiview 2) this view explicitly raised a ``NotFound`` exception *in order to* proceed to the next predicate check in the multiview, that code will now behave differently: rather than skipping to the next view match, a NotFound will be raised to the top-level exception handling machinery instead. For code to be depending upon the behavior of a view raising ``NotFound`` to proceed to the next predicate match, would be tragic, but not impossible, given that ``NotFound`` is a public interface. ``repoze.bfg.exceptions.PredicateMismatch`` is not a public API and cannot be depended upon by application code, so you should not change your view code to raise ``PredicateMismatch``. Instead, move the logic which raised the ``NotFound`` exception in the view out into a custom view predicate.
2010-07-15FeaturesChris McDonough
-------- - New view predicate: match_val. The ``match_val`` value represents the presence of a value in the structure added to the request named ``matchdict`` during URL dispatch representing the match values from the route pattern (e.g. if the route pattern has ``:foo`` in it, and the route matches, a key will exist in the matchdict named ``foo``). Like all other view predicates, this feature is exposed via the ``bfg_view`` API, the Configurator ``add_view`` API, and the ZCML ``view`` directive. Documentation ------------- - API documentation for the ``add_view`` method of the configurator changed to include ``match_val``. - ZCML documentation for ``view`` ZCML directive changed to include ``match_val``. - The ``Views`` narrative chapter now contains a description of the ``match_val`` predicate. Bug Fixes --------- - The ``header`` predicate (when used as either a view predicate or a route predicate) had a problem when specified with a name/regex pair. When the header did not exist in the headers dictionary, the regex match could be fed ``None``, causing it to throw a ``TypeError: expected string or buffer`` exception. Now, the predicate returns False as intended. Internal -------- - Remove ``repoze.bfg.configuration.isclass`` function in favor of using ``inspect.isclass``.
2010-07-02- The ``repoze.bfg.url.route_url`` API has changed. If a keywordChris McDonough
``_app_url`` is present in the arguments passed to ``route_url``, this value will be used as the protocol/hostname/port/leading path prefix of the generated URL. For example, using an ``_app_url`` of ``http://example.com:8080/foo`` would cause the URL ``http://example.com:8080/foo/fleeb/flub`` to be returned from this function if the expansion of the route pattern associated with the ``route_name`` expanded to ``/fleeb/flub``. - It is now possible to use a URL as the ``name`` argument fed to ``repoze.bfg.configuration.Configurator.add_static_view``. When the name argument is a URL, the ``repoze.bfg.url.static_url`` API will generate join this URL (as a prefix) to a path including the static file name. This makes it more possible to put static media on a separate webserver for production, while keeping static media package-internal and served by the development webserver during development.
2010-04-27FeaturesChris McDonough
-------- - A locale negotiator no longer needs to be registered explicitly. The default locale negotiator at ``repoze.bfg.i18n.default_locale_negotiator`` is now used unconditionally as... um, the default locale negotiator. - The default locale negotiator has become more complex. * First, the negotiator looks for the ``_LOCALE_`` attribute of the request object (possibly set by an :term:`event listener`). * Then it looks for the ``request.params['_LOCALE_']`` value. * Then it looks for the ``request.cookies['_LOCALE_']`` value. Backwards Incompatibilities --------------------------- - The default locale negotiator now looks for the parameter named ``_LOCALE_`` rather than a parameter named ``locale`` in ``request.params``. Behavior Changes ---------------- - A locale negotiator may now return ``None``, signifying that the default locale should be used. Documentation ------------- - Documentation concerning locale negotiation in the Internationalizationa and Localization chapter was updated.
2010-04-25- Add a new method of the Configurator named ``derive_view`` which canChris McDonough
be used to generate a BFG view callable from a user-supplied function, instance, or class. This useful for external framework and plugin authors wishing to wrap callables supplied by their users which follow the same calling conventions and response conventions as objects that can be supplied directly to BFG as a view callable. See the ``derive_view`` method in the ``repoze.bfg.configuration.Configurator`` docs.

--------- - When the ``Configurator`` is passed an instance of ``zope.component.registry.Components`` as a ``registry`` constructor argument, fix the instance up to have the attributes we expect of an instance of ``repoze.bfg.registry.Registry`` when ``setup_registry`` is called. This makes it possible to use the global Zope component registry as a BFG application registry.

and config.registry.registerUtility will work).
2009-12-19- Add four new testing-related APIs to theChris McDonough
``repoze.bfg.configuration.Configurator`` class: ``testing_securitypolicy``, ``testing_models``, ``testing_add_subscriber``, and ``testing_add_template``. These were added in order to provide more direct access to the functionality of the ``repoze.bfg.testing`` APIs named ``registerDummySecurityPolicy``, ``registerModels``, ``registerEventListener``, and ``registerTemplateRenderer`` when a configurator is used. The ``testing`` APIs named are nominally deprecated (although they will likely remain around "forever", as they are in heavy use in the wild). - Doc-deprecated most helper functions in the ``repoze.bfg.testing`` module. These helper functions likely won't be removed any time soon, nor will they generate a warning any time soon, due to their heavy use in the wild, but equivalent behavior exists in methods of a Configurator.
2009-12-19- Add a new API to the ``repoze.bfg.configuration.Configurator``Chris McDonough
class: ``add_settings``. This API can be used to add "settings" (information returned within via the ``repoze.bfg.settings.get_settings`` API) after the configurator has been initially set up. This is most useful for testing purposes.
2009-12-19- Add two new APIs to the ``repoze.bfg.configuration.Configurator``Chris McDonough
class: ``add_adapter`` and ``add_utility``. These, respectively, perform the same functions as the ``registerAdapter`` and ``registerUtility`` functions of a ZCA registry. They were added to allow for a more consistent testing API for applications that make use of the ZCA directly. - Cause the ``adapter``, ``utility``, and ``subscriber`` ZCML directives to use a ``Configurator`` instance and associated configurator APIs rather than a ZCA registry directly.
2009-12-19- Add a ``custom_predicates`` argument to the ``Configurator``Chris McDonough
``add_view`` method, the ``bfg_view`` decorator and the attribute list of the ZCML ``view`` directive. If ``custom_predicates`` is specified, it must be a sequence of predicate callables (a predicate callable accepts two arguments: ``context`` and ``request`` and returns ``True`` or ``False``). The associated view callable will only be invoked if all custom predicates return ``True``. Use one or more custom predicates when no existing predefined predicate is useful. Predefined and custom predicates can be mixed freely. - Add a ``custom_predicates`` argument to the ``Configurator`` ``add_route`` and the attribute list of the ZCML ``route`` directive. If ``custom_predicates`` is specified, it must be a sequence of predicate callables (a predicate callable accepts two arguments: ``context`` and ``request`` and returns ``True`` or ``False``). The associated route will match will only be invoked if all custom predicates return ``True``, else route matching continues. Use one or more custom predicates when no existing predefined predicate is useful. Predefined and custom predicates can be mixed freely.
2009-12-17FeaturesChris McDonough
-------- - The ``Configurator`` object now has two new methods: ``begin`` and ``end``. The ``begin`` method is meant to be called before any "configuration" begins (e.g. before ``add_view``, et. al are called). The ``end`` method is meant to be called after all "configuration" is complete. Previously, before there was imperative configuration at all (1.1 and prior), configuration begin and end was invariably implied by the process of loading a ZCML file. When a ZCML load happened, the threadlocal data structure containing the request and registry was modified before the load, and torn down after the load, making sure that all framework code that needed ``get_current_registry`` for the duration of the ZCML load was satisfied. Some API methods called during imperative configuration, (such as ``Configurator.add_view`` when a renderer is involved) end up for historical reasons calling ``get_current_registry``. However, in 1.2a5 and below, the Configurator supplied no functionality that allowed people to make sure that ``get_current_registry`` returned the registry implied by the configurator being used. ``begin`` now serves this purpose. Inversely, ``end`` pops the thread local stack, undoing the actions of ``begin``. We make this boundary explicit to reduce the potential for confusion when the configurator is used in different circumstances (e.g. in unit tests and app code vs. just in initial app setup). Existing code written for 1.2a1-1.2a5 which does not call ``begin`` or ``end`` continues to work in the same manner it did before. It is however suggested that this code be changed to call ``begin`` and ``end`` to reduce the potential for confusion in the future. - All ``paster`` templates which generate an application skeleton now make use of the new ``begin`` and ``end`` methods of the Configurator they use in their respective copies of ``run.py`` and ``tests.py``. Documentation ------------- - All documentation that makes use of a ``Configurator`` object to do application setup and test setup now makes use of the new ``begin`` and ``end`` methods of the configurator. Bug Fixes --------- - When a ``repoze.bfg.exceptions.NotFound`` or ``repoze.bfg.exceptions.Forbidden`` *class* (as opposed to instance) was raised as an exception within a root factory (or route root factory), the exception would not be caught properly by the ``repoze.bfg.`` Router and it would propagate to up the call stack, as opposed to rendering the not found view or the forbidden view as would have been expected.
