Backwards Compatibility¶ ↑

• RodaResponse#set_cookie and delete_cookie have been removed.

• Roda.request_module and .response_module have been removed.

• Roda.hash_matcher has been removed.

• The :extension hash matcher has been removed.

• The :param and :param! hash matchers have been removed.

• RodaRequest#full_path_info has been removed.

• The :opts render plugin option is no longer respected, Use the :template_opts option instead.

• Plugin option hashes for the chunked, default_headers, error_email, and render plugins are now frozen.

• The :header hash matcher in the header_matchers plugin now yields the header value to the block.

• Roda.json_result_classes in the json plugin is now frozen.

• The PATH_INFO and SCRIPT_NAME env variables are no longer modified during routing.

• Roda#initialize now takes an env hash, and call now takes the route block. The private _route method has been removed.

• RodaRequest#keep_remaining_path/#updating_remaining_path private methods have been removed.

• The render plugin’s :layout option is now always set to true or false, specifying whether a layout should be used by default. The template used for a layout is now located as the :template option inside :layout_opts.

New Plugins¶ ↑

• A padrino_render plugin has been added, which adds render/partial methods that work similarly to Padrino’s.

Other New Features¶ ↑

• A Roda#render_template private method has been added to the render plugin. All internal users of render should switch to calling render_template.

• The halt plugin now integrates with the symbol_views and json plugins, allowing things like:

  r.halt(:template)
  r.halt('key'=>'value')
  

Other Improvements¶ ↑

• The error_handler plugin now rescues ScriptError in addition to StandardError. This handles SyntaxError (raised by ERB), LoadError (raised by require), and NotImplementedError (raised by TSort).

• Using a :layout=>true option to the render plugin’s view method now uses the default layout template, instead of a template named ‘true’. It can be used to force a layout even if the render plugin has been configured to not use a layout by default.

• Roda apps that use the middleware plugin can now be used as regular rack apps. Previously, using the middleware plugin made it impossible to use the app as a regular rack app.

• Roda#request and response are now faster.

• Roda avoids creating unnecessary hashes in more places now.
