ambiorix 2.0.0

Breaking change

The render and send_file methods of the Response object now expect the full path to the template, with the file extension. Where one would before res$render("home"), now one res$render("templates/home.html"). Similarly, in said templates, to import partials, use full path relative to the template in which the partial is used e.g.: from [! header.html !] to [! partials/header.html !].

Changes

  • Middleware no longer uses global environment that may cause side effect across sessions.
  • set and get methods on request store in environment to allow locking variables when using set.
  • Better instructions for deploying as a service.
  • Remove the deprecated Logger class, see log package.
  • Pass host to free port fetch function.
  • Add hidden option to force change port for upcoming related service.
  • Internals of calls reworked to share response object. This is how it should always have worked, it allows middlewares to updatre request and response to be used/passed to subsequent calls.
  • Middleware check for run has been fixed.
  • Document and export the Response class.
  • Added pre-hook to response.
  • Document and export Request class.
  • set and get methods on Request and Response accept character strings as name.
  • Use R 4.1.0 + add Depends
  • Allow passing a list of functions to use to easily se multiple middlewares at once.
  • render method correctly sets the Content-type header.
  • headers method more robust to avoid duplicated headers.
  • Add token_create function.
  • Add cookie method to the Response class to easily set cookies.
  • Add cookie field to Request to hold parsed HTTP_COOKIE.
  • Properly URL decode query string values.
  • Add sendf method to Response class to pre-process request with sprintf.
  • Silently read templates, no more EOF warnings.
  • More informative print messages for classes.
  • Add post render hooks to response.
  • Added get_headers method to Response to retrieve currently set headers.
  • Unlock objects to allow adding new elements to Response and Request.
