The directory structure has changed to better isolate crates serving
core and contrib. The new directory structure is:
contrib/
lib/ - the contrib library
core/
lib/ - the core Rocket library
codegen/ - the "compile extension" codegen library
codegen_next/ - the new proc-macro library
examples/ - unchanged
scripts/ - unchanged
site/ - unchanged
This commit also removes the following files:
appveyor.yml - AppVeyor (Rust on Windows) is far too spotty for use
rustfmt.toml - rustfmt is, unfortunately, not mature enough for use
Finally, all example Cargo crates were marked with 'publish = false'.
Rust's linting API is incredibly unstable, resulting in unnecessary
breakage to `rocket_codegen`. Rocket's lints are also not as
conservative as would be desired, resulting in spurious warnings. For
these reasons, this commit removes linting from `rocket_codegen`.
These lints will likely be reintroduced as part of a 'rocket_lints'
crate. Factoring the lints out to a separate crate means that lint
breakage can be dealt with by uncommenting the dependency instead of
waiting for a new release or backtracking nightlies. In the same vein,
it will likely improve stability of the 'rocket_codegen' crate.
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 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 (minor) breaking change. If `rocket.launch()` is the last expression
in a function, the return type will change from `()` to `LaunchError`. A simple
workaround that preserves the previous functionality is to simply add a
semicolon after `launch()`: `rocket.launch();`.
resolves#34
This commit includes the following additions:
* A `session` example was added.
* `Config::take_session_key` was removed.
* If a `session_key` is not supplied, one is automatically generated.
* The `Session` type implements signed, encrypted sessions.
* A `Session` can be retrieved via its request guard.
This commit involves several breaking changes:
* `session_key` config param must be a 256-bit base64 encoded string.
* `FromRequest` is implemented for `Cookies`, not `Cookie`.
* Only a single `Cookies` instance can be retrieved at a time.
* `Config::take_session_key` returns a `Vec<u8>`.
* `Into<Header>` is implemented for `&Cookie`, not `Cookie`.
* The `unmanaged_state` lint emits a warning when a `State<T>` request
guard is used without an accompanying `manage` call for `T`.
* The `unmounted_route` lint emits a warning when a route declared via
a Rocket attribute is not mounted via a call to `mount`.
There is one known shortcoming of these lints at present: _any_ call to
`manage` or `mount` marks state/routes as managed/mounted. This can be
an issue when an application uses more than one `Rocket` instance, with
different calls to `mount` and `manage` in each. The lints should
perform their analyses on a per-instance basis.
