Changelog

0.36.0.2

• Allow aeson 0.9.*

0.36.0.1

• Allow errors 2.0.*

0.36

• File output now needs a third component, specifying if the file is served as 'attachment' or not. If so, this will make most browsers download the file instead of displaying it. This is a breaking change. You can add a third element False to the return value to get the old behaviour.

• Re-exported XML serializable types from rest-types no longer have regular PF instances since they are now using GHC Generics.

0.35.1

• Remove unneeded constraint from domainReason.

0.35

• Change input/output dictionaries to indicate separately if there are dictionaries, and for what type. This is a breaking change. The most likely problems are where Reason () is explicitly used in handlers without error dictionaries. Simply replace these with Reason_. Additionally, all some* combinators are deprecated now. They are just the identity function and can be removed.

• The types of all dictionary combinators have changed, the Dicts type, the dicts smart constructor, empty, SomeError, Modifier, many internal (but exported) things in Rest.Driver.Perform, some types in Rest.Handler, and Void was moved.

• Switched all usages of ErrorT to ExceptT. To stay backwards compatible with older versions of transformers and mtl you can use the transformers-compat and mtl-compat packages. To update your code: s/ErrorT/ExceptT and s/Control.Monad.Error/Control.Monad.Except/.

• Add >|< to Rest.Error. It combines two ExceptT computations yielding the last error if both fail. This is a replacement for using <|> with ErrorT since the Alternative ExceptT instance needs a Monoid instance for the error.

• Fix typos in haddock for Param dictionary.

• Switch to explicit export lists where missing.

0.34.0.3

• Allow aeson-utils 0.3.*

0.34.0.2

• Allow utf8-string 1.

0.34.0.1

• Fix for base 4.8/GHC 7.10.

0.34

• Allow setting the method in the requests in a top level multi handler.
• The getMethod Rest class function now returns a Maybe.
• The route method in Rest.Driver.Routing now takes a Maybe Method.
• The Method type was removed from Rest.Driver.Types and moved to rest-types' Rest.Types.Method.

0.33.2

• Allow top level multi handler as a POST as well as a GET. Technically, you're not allowed to vary the response based on the body of a GET. Also, in some frameworks (e.g. jQuery) it isn't possible to set the body of a GET.

0.33.1.2

• Typo fixes in documentation.

0.33.1.1

• Declare correct error return type for derived multi handlers. These were declared as Reason (Reason e), now they are Reason (). This generated confusing documentation.

0.33.1

• Move Range from Rest.Handler into rest-types. Still re-exported.

0.33

• Added a Rest.Types.Error.ToResponseCode constraint to jsonE, xmlE, and xmlJsonE.
• Changed domainReason to have a ToResponseCode constraint instead of an explicit argument.
• Added Rest.ShowUrl re-exporting ShowUrl from rest-types.
• application/* and application/octet-stream accept headers now match file outputs.

0.32.0.2

• Allow random 1.1.*

0.32.0.1

• Fix bug in Chrome when serving files with commas in name.

0.32

• Add addHeader dictionary combinator, to extend instead of replace the header dictionaries. For this, a constructor TwoHeaders was added to Header.
• Relax the types of mkListing and mkOrderedListing to allow parameters and headers.

0.31.1

• Expose Rest.Driver.Routing.splitUriString.
• Make test cases compile again.

0.31

• Schema: action has been renamed to static since it is tied to statics and to disambiguate it from the unrelated actions.

0.30.0.3

• Use json-schema 0.5.*

0.30.0.2

• Use rest-stringmap == 0.2.*

0.30.0.1

• Allow mtl == 2.2.* and transformers == 0.4.*

0.30

• Use Content-Disposition to provide filenames for file responses. This slightly changes the semantics of FileO: what used to be interpreted as the file extension is now used for the whole file name.

• Rest.Types.Container.StringMap Has been replaced by rest-stringmap. This changes the XML serialization format of multi part messages, the old format was <map><key>k</key>v[...]</map> and the new one is <map><value key="k">v</value>[...]</map>.

0.29

• Add multi-delete handler. It is used on a DELETE to /<resource>/<id>/ and is derived from the single delete handler.
• Don't put Cache-Control: private header on served files. This way they can be cached by public proxies, e.g. cloudfront.
• Add Show instances for Header, Param and Dict.
• Renamed mkMultiPutHandler to mkMultiHandler in Rest.Driver.Routing.
• Explicit exports in Rest.Driver.Routing, removing a lot of private functions from the public interface.
