This commit changes the 'FromForm' trait in two ways:
1. The singular method is now named 'from_form'.
2. The method takes a second parameter: 'strict: bool'.
The 'strict' parameter is used to specify whether form parsing should
be strict or not (i.e. lenient). When parsing is lenient, extra form
fields do not result in an error. This lenient behavior is used by a
new 'LenientForm' data guard type to request lenient form parsing. The
behavior for 'Form' remains unchanged.
Resolves#242.
Sessions
--------
This commit removes the `Session` type in favor of methods on the
`Cookies` types that allow for adding, removing, and getting private
(signed and encrypted) cookies. These methods provide a superset of
the functionality of `Session` while also being a minimal addition to
the existing API. They can be used to implement the previous `Session`
type as well as other forms of session storage. The new methods are:
* Cookie::add_private(&mut self, Cookie)
* Cookie::remove_private(&mut self, Cookie)
* Cookie::get_private(&self, &str)
Resolves#20
Testing
-------
This commit removes the `rocket::testing` module. It adds the
`rocket::local` module which provides a `Client` type for local
dispatching of requests against a `Rocket` instance. This `local`
package subsumes the previous `testing` package.
Rocket Examples
---------------
The `forms`, `optional_result`, and `hello_alt_methods` examples have
been removed. The following example have been renamed:
* extended_validation -> form_validation
* hello_ranks -> ranking
* from_request -> request_guard
* hello_tls -> tls
Other Changes
-------------
This commit also includes the following smaller changes:
* Config::{development, staging, production} constructors have been
added for easier creation of default `Config` structures.
* The `Config` type is exported from the root.
* `Request` implements `Clone` and `Debug`.
* `Request::new` is no longer exported.
* A `Response::body_bytes` method was added to easily retrieve a
response's body as a `Vec<u8>`.
This commit also adds the `base` field to `Route` which allows the
base mount point to be retrieved. Finally, this commits adds an
implementation of `FromRequest` for `Route` which returns the active
route if one is available or forwards otherwise.
This commit is a breaking change: it makes `Request` and `MockRequest`
invariant over the lifetime `'r`. While this shouldn't affect most
applications, it may affect some.
Resolves#108.
This commit includes two major changes to core:
1. Configuration state is no longer global. The `config::active()`
function has been removed. The active configuration can be
retrieved via the `config` method on a `Rocket` instance.
2. The `Responder` trait has changed. `Responder::respond(self)` has
been removed in favor of `Responder::respond_to(self, &Request)`.
This allows responders to dynamically adjust their response based
on the incoming request.
Additionally, it includes the following changes to core and codegen:
* The `Request::guard` method was added to allow for simple
retrivial of request guards.
* The `Request::limits` method was added to retrieve configured
limits.
* The `File` `Responder` implementation now uses a fixed size body
instead of a chunked body.
* The `Outcome::of<R: Responder>(R)` method was removed while
`Outcome::from<R: Responder(&Request, R)` was added.
* The unmounted and unmanaged limits are more cautious: they will only
emit warnings when the `Rocket` receiver is known.
This commit includes one major change to contrib:
1. To use contrib's templating, the fairing returned by
`Template::fairing()` must be attached to the running Rocket
instance.
Additionally, the `Display` implementation of `Template` was removed. To
directly render a template to a `String`, the new `Template::show`
method can be used.
This is a breaking change.
The `testing` feature no longer exists. Testing structures can now be
accessed without any features enabled.
Prior to this change, Rocket would panic when draining from a network
stream failed. With this change, Rocket force closes the stream on any
error.
This change also ensures that the `Fairings` launch output only prints
if at least one fairing has been attached.
This is a breaking change. A call to `Response::headers()` can be
replaced with `Response::headers().iter()`. A call to
`Response::header_values()` can be replaced with
`Response::headers().get()`.
This commit changes the routing algorithm. In particular, it enforces
precise matching of formats. With this change, a route with a specified
format only matches requests that have the same format specified. A
route with no format specified matches any request's format. This is
contrast to the previous behavior, where a route without a specified
format would match requests regardless of their format or whether one
was specified.
This commit also changes the following:
* The return type of the 'content_type' method of 'Request' is now
'Option<ContentType>'.
* The 'ContentType' request guard forwards when the request has no
specified ContentType.
* The 'add_header' and 'replace_header' methods take the header
argument generically.
Closes#120.
This commit also includes the following changes:
* `FromRequest` for `SocketAddr` implemented: extracts remote address.
* All built-in `FromRequest` implementations are documented.
* Request preprocessing overrides remote IP with value from X-Real-IP header.
* `MockRequest` allows setting the remote address with `remote()`.
Resolves#38.
