platform/CHANGELOG.md

2.0.0-alpha

• Removed random_string dependency.
• Moved reflection to package:angel_container.
• Upgraded package:file to 5.0.0.
• ResponseContext.sendFile now uses package:file.
• Abandon ContentType in favor of MediaType.
• Changed view engine to use Map<String, dynamic>.
• Remove dependency on package:json_god by default.
• Remove dependency on package:dart2_constant.
• Remove contentType argument in ResponseContext.serialize.
• Moved lib/hooks.dart into package:angel_hooks.
• Moved TypedService into package:angel_typed_service.
• Completely removed the AngelBase class.
• Removed all @deprecated symbols.
• Service.toId was renamed to Service.parseId; it also now uses its single type argument to determine how to parse a value.
  • In addition, this method was also made static.
• RequestContext and ResponseContext are now generic, and take a single type argument pointing to the underlying request/response type, respectively.
• RequestContext.io and ResponseContext.io are now permanently gone.
• HttpRequestContextImpl and HttpResponseContextImpl were renamed to HttpRequestContext and HttpResponseContext.
• Lazy-parsing request bodies is now the default; Angel.lazyParseBodies was replaced with Angel.eagerParseRequestBodies.
• Angel.storeOriginalBuffer -> Angel.storeRawRequestBuffers.
• The methods lazyBody, lazyFiles, and lazyOriginalBuffer on ResponseContext were all replaced with parseBody, parseUploadedFiles, and parseRawRequestBuffer, respectively.
• Removed the synchronous equivalents of the above methods (body, files, and originalBuffer), as well as query.
• Removed Angel.injections and RequestContext.injections.
• Removed Angel.inject and RequestContext.inject.
• Removed a dependency on package:pool, which also meant removing AngelHttp.throttle.
• Remove the RequestMiddleware typedef; from now on, one should use ResponseContext.end exclusively to close responses.
• waterfall will now only accept RequestHandler.
• Routable, and all of its subclasses, now extend Router<RequestHandler>, and therefore only take routes in the form of FutureOr myFunc(RequestContext, ResponseContext res).
• @Middleware now takes an Iterable of RequestHandlers.
• @Expose.path now must be a String, not just any Pattern.
• @Expose.middleware now takes Iterable<RequestHandler>, instead of just List.
• createDynamicHandler was renamed to ioc, and is now used to run IoC-aware handlers in a type-safe manner.
• RequestContext.params is now a Map<String, dynamic>, rather than just a Map.
• Removed RequestContext.grab.
• Removed RequestContext.properties.
• Removed the defunct debug property where it still existed.
• Routable.use now only accepts a Service.
• The above change removes the concept of "nested apps," which are messy to maintain, and not very elegant.
• Removed Angel.createZoneForRequest.
• Removed Angel.defaultZoneCreator.
• Added all flags to the Angel constructor, ex. Angel.eagerParseBodies.
• Fix a bug where synchronous errors in handleRequest would not be caught.
• AngelHttp.useZone now defaults to false.
• ResponseContext now starts in streaming mode by default; the response buffer is opt-in, as in many cases it is unnecessary and slows down response time.
• ResponseContext.streaming was replaced by ResponseContext.isBuffered.
• Made LockableBytesBuilder public.
• Removed the now-obsolete ResponseContext.willCloseItself.
• Removed ResponseContext.dispose.
• Removed the now-obsolete ResponseContext.end.
• Removed the now-obsolete ResponseContext.releaseCorrespondingRequest.
