New Features

This release includes the following new features:

• Introduced managed state.
• Added lints that warn on unmanaged state and unmounted routes.
• Added the ability to set configuration parameters via environment variables.
• Config structures can be built via ConfigBuilder, which follows the builder pattern.
• Logging can be enabled or disabled on custom configuration via a second parameter to the Rocket::custom method.
• name and value methods were added to Header to retrieve the name and value of a header.
• A new configuration parameter, workers, can be used to set the number of threads Rocket uses.
• The address of the remote connection is available via Request.remote(). Request preprocessing overrides remote IP with value from the X-Real-IP header, if present.
• During testing, the remote address can be set via MockRequest.remote().
• The SocketAddr request guard retrieves the remote address.
• A UUID type has been added to contrib.
• rocket and rocket_codegen will refuse to build with an incompatible nightly version and emit nice error messages.
• Major performance and usability improvements were upstreamed to the cookie crate, including the addition of a CookieBuilder.
• When a checkbox isn't present in a form, bool types in a FromForm structure will parse as false.
• The FormItems iterator can be queried for a complete parse via completed and exhausted.
• Routes for OPTIONS requests can be declared via the options decorator.
• Strings can be percent-encoded via URI::percent_encode().

Breaking Changes

This release includes several breaking changes. These changes are listed below along with a short note about how to handle the breaking change in existing applications.

• Rocket::custom takes two parameters, the first being Config by value.

  A call in v0.1 of the form Rocket::custom(&config) is now Rocket::custom(config, false).

• Tera templates are named without their extension.

  A templated named name.html.tera is now simply name.

• JSON unwrap method has been renamed to into_inner.

  A call to .unwrap() should be changed to .into_inner().

• The map! macro was removed in favor of the json! macro.

  A call of the form map!{ "a" => b } can be written as: json!({ "a": b }).

• The hyper::SetCookie header is no longer exported.

  Use the Cookie type as an Into<Header> type directly.

• The Content-Type for String is now text/plain.

  Use content::HTML<String> for HTML-based String responses.

• Request.content_type() returns an Option<ContentType>.

  Use .unwrap_or(ContentType::Any) to get the old behavior.

• The ContentType request guard forwards when the request has no Content-Type header.

  Use an Option<ContentType> and .unwrap_or(ContentType::Any) for the old behavior.

• A Rocket instance must be declared before a MockRequest.

  Change the order of the rocket::ignite() and MockRequest::new() calls.

• A route with format specified only matches requests with the same format.

  Previously, a route with a format would match requests without a format specified. There is no workaround to this change; simply specify formats when required.

• FormItems can no longer be constructed directly.

  Instead of constructing as FormItems(string), construct as FormItems::from(string).

• from_from_string(&str) in FromForm removed in favor of from_form_items(&mut FormItems).

  Most implementation should be using FormItems internally; simply use the passed in FormItems. In other cases, the form string can be retrieved via the inner_str method of FormItems.

• Config::{set, default_for} are deprecated.

  Use the set_{param} methods instead of set, and new or build in place of default_for.

• Route paths must be absolute.

  Prepend a / to convert a relative path into an absolute one.

• Route paths cannot contain empty segments.

  Remove any empty segments, including trailing ones, from a route path.

Bug Fixes

A couple of bugs were fixed in this release:

• Handlebars partials were not properly registered (#122).
• Rocket::custom did not set the custom configuration as the active configuration.
