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.
This commit introduces `RawStr` to forms. In particular, after this
commit, the `&str` type no longer implements `FromFormValue`, and so it
cannot be used as a field in forms. Instad, the `&RawStr` can be used.
The `FormItems` iterator now returns an `(&RawStr, &RawStr)` pair.
This commit changes the way Rocket parses form items. In particular, it now
(liberally) validates form strings, returning a Bad Request on malformed inputs
and Unprocessable Entity on bad parses.
The 'FormItems' iterator was modified to accomodate this. The iterator is now
initialized using 'from': 'FormItems::from(form_string)'. The iterator can be
queried to check for a complete parse using either 'completed()' or
'exhausted()', the latter of which will consume valid keys/values and return
true only if the entire string was consumed.
The 'FromForm' trait now takes a mutable borrow to a 'FormItems' iterator.
The 'Form' and 'FormForm' implementation for 'Form' were modified to use the new
iterfaces and check for 'exhausted' after a parse, returning a Bad Request error
if the iterator cannot be exhausted.
Resolves#46.
* 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.
This is a complete rework of `Responder`s and of the http backend in
general. This gets Rocket one step closer to HTTP library independence,
enabling many future features such as transparent async I/O, automatic
HEAD request parsing, pre/post hooks, and more.
Summary of changes:
* `Responder::response` no longer takes in `FreshHyperResponse`.
Instead, it returns a new `Response` type.
* The new `Response` type now encapsulates a full HTTP response. As a
result, `Responder`s now return it.
* The `Handler` type now returns an `Outcome` directly.
* The `ErrorHandler` returns a `Result`. It can no longer forward,
which made no sense previously.
* `Stream` accepts a chunked size parameter.
* `StatusCode` removed in favor of new `Status` type.
* `ContentType` significantly modified.
* New, lightweight `Header` type that plays nicely with `Response`.
