Release Notes
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
0.2.3
|
|
|
|
* Fix some throttling bugs.
|
|
* ``X-Throttle`` header on throttling.
|
|
* Support for nesting resources on related models.
|
|
|
|
0.2.2
|
|
|
|
* Throttling support complete.
|
|
|
|
0.2.1
|
|
|
|
* Couple of simple bugfixes over 0.2.0
|
|
|
|
0.2.0
|
|
|
|
* Big refactoring changes since 0.1.0, ask on the discussion group if anything isn't clear.
|
|
The public API has been massively cleaned up. Expect it to be fairly stable from here on in.
|
|
|
|
* ``Resource`` becomes decoupled into ``View`` and ``Resource``, your views should now inherit from ``View``, not ``Resource``.
|
|
|
|
* The handler functions on views ``.get() .put() .post()`` etc, no longer have the ``content`` and ``auth`` args.
|
|
Use ``self.CONTENT`` inside a view to access the deserialized, validated content.
|
|
Use ``self.user`` inside a view to access the authenticated user.
|
|
|
|
* ``allowed_methods`` and ``anon_allowed_methods`` are now defunct. if a method is defined, it's available.
|
|
The ``permissions`` attribute on a ``View`` is now used to provide generic permissions checking.
|
|
Use permission classes such as ``FullAnonAccess``, ``IsAuthenticated`` or ``IsUserOrIsAnonReadOnly`` to set the permissions.
|
|
|
|
* The ``authenticators`` class becomes ``authentication``. Class names change to ``Authentication``.
|
|
|
|
* The ``emitters`` class becomes ``renderers``. Class names change to ``Renderers``.
|
|
|
|
* ``ResponseException`` becomes ``ErrorResponse``.
|
|
|
|
* The mixin classes have been nicely refactored, the basic mixins are now ``RequestMixin``, ``ResponseMixin``, ``AuthMixin``, and ``ResourceMixin``
|
|
You can reuse these mixin classes individually without using the ``View`` class.
|
|
|
|
0.1.1
|
|
|
|
* Final build before pulling in all the refactoring changes for 0.2, in case anyone needs to hang on to 0.1.
|
|
|
|
0.1.0
|
|
|
|
* Initial release. |
