repoze.bfg 1.2a6 has been released Install via:
easy_install -i http://dist.repoze.org/bfg/1.2/simple repoze.bfg Or via PyPI. The docs at http://docs.repoze.org/bfg/1.2 have been updated. The changelog follows: 1.2a6 (2009-12-18) ================== Features -------- - 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. - When Chameleon page or text templates used as renderers were added imperatively (via ``Configurator.add_view`` or some derivative), they too-eagerly attempted to look up the ``reload_templates`` setting via ``get_settings``, meaning they were always registered in non-auto-reload-mode (the default). Each now waits until its respective ``template`` attribute is accessed to look up the value. - When a route with the same name as a previously registered route was added, the old route was not removed from the mapper's routelist. Symptom: the old registered route would be used (and possibly matched) during route lookup when it should not have had a chance to ever be used. _______________________________________________ Repoze-dev mailing list Repoze-dev@lists.repoze.org http://lists.repoze.org/listinfo/repoze-dev
