Revision history for Perl extension Bigtop.
0.09 Wed May 10 10:41:49 CDT 2006
- Improved Build.PL so it won't try to install tentmaker templates
without Gantry.
- Added Test::Files to build_requires list.
- Added a backend to make SQL for SQLite.
- Added a --help message to bigtop script.
0.08 Wed May 10 07:47:23 CDT 2006
- Improved the usability of tentmaker (I hope) by putting former tooltips
into boxes which are always visible and expanding and clarifying the
text in those tips.
- Changed the name of the generated default wrapper to genwrapper.tt
so that users of bigtop never again see the wrapper.tt which ships
with gantry.
- Added support for app level literals to tentmaker.
0.07 Fri May 5 15:39:16 CDT 2006
- Added server_port statement to CGI Gantry backend so you can
decide on a test server port in advance.
- Removed two unitialized value warnings from GantryDefault Sitelook
backend.
- Factored backend loading out of gen_from_string so other Bigtop::Parser
routines can share it (think parse_string).
- Corrected syntax errors in generated CRUD helper methods.
- Added TentMaker.
- Implemented deparser (first draft) to support TentMaker.
- Moved all backends into the Backend namespace.
- Added documentation methods to all backends, so TentMaker can describe
what they do for its users.
- Factored out grammar from Bigtop::Parser and had Parse::RecDescent
precompile it. This results in almost a four fold speed savings
in the test suite. It should give a similar savings to invocations
of bigtop and tentmaker.
- Made generated stand alone server accept its port from the command line.
- Added blib/lib and lib to the stand alone server's path.
- Made table_element_blocks and field_statements optional.
0.06 Thu Mar 23 08:26:46 CST 2006
- Added use_clean_dates to the options generated for crud constructor
calls when a controller's type is CRUD.
- Corrected CRUD do_add, do_edit, and do_delete so they call CRUD
methods through the correct object.
- Made CGI backend respect literal PerlTop statement, so you can put
use libs into the top of the generated CGI script just as you do
in the top of the <Perl> block of httpd.conf for mod_perl.
- Added explicit import list option to uses statements in controller
blocks generated by Gantry Control backend.
- Improved error messages when block names or keywords in the
grammar (like literal) are misspelled.
- Made literal types into bonifide keywords of app_literal and
controller_literal type, so better error messages result when
the keywords are misspelled and better docs exist about who
defined which literal type.
- Changed set_vars block keyword to config to make it more independent
of mod_perl. set_vars is retained as a synoym for legacy bigtop
files, but is no longer documented for use (expect a mention
in the Syntax doc, where it is marked deprecated).
- Added html_form_constraint as a field statement which Control
backends should use to supply Data::FormValidator constraints.
- Made the Gantry Control backend respect html_form_constraint.
- Made vim folding optional in the bigtop.syntax file. To get it,
let bigtop_fold=1
in your .vimrc file.
- Added skip_config statement to Bigtop::HttpdConf::Gantry backend,
so you can still get httpd.conf locations, but have your conf
in some other place (like a Gantry::Conf Config::General flat file).
If you still need a PerlSetVar like GantryConfInstance, use a
literal statement.
- Added Bigtop::Conf::General to write Config::General style conf files.
- Gantry base modules now have their init commented out if it would
only defer to Gantry.pm via SUPER.
- Added with_server statement to Bigtop::CGI::Gantry which makes
a Gantry::Server based stand alone server for the app.
Using it saves configuring apache.
- Added new lines after literals which don't end in whitespace.
- Added support for Gantry::Conf to the CGI Gantry backend (use
the instance keyword).
0.05 Wed Feb 1 14:15:33 CST 2006
- Added support for new Gantry::Utils::Model
- Removed no_accessor set vars from init methods at the app level.
- Removed no_accessor set vars from init methods at the controller level.
- Removed int as a shorthand for int4 in postgres backends.
- Added model_base_class keyword at the table level and made
Bigtop::Model::GantryCDBI pay attention to it.
- Made Bigtop::Model::Gantry pay attention to model_base_class.
- Corrected models made by Bigtop::Model::Gantry to conform to the
current (experimental) Gantry::Utils::Model.
- Fixed CRUD_form method type in Gantry control generation so it
include the row (fished out of $data)
- Filled in get_quoted_columns method in B::M::G.
- Added PerlTop literal block so use libs can appear in <Perl>
blocks before the first use statement.
- Fixed B::M::Gantry to use fully qualified foreign table names when
fetching foreign objects.
- Made bigtop script delete _Inline (if its in the current directory)
by default and added a flag (--keep_inline or -k) for keeping it.
- Greatly expanded the amount of code generated for Gantry::Plugins::CRUD.
Users get this extra code by setting the controller type with is CRUD.
- Changed from mixin to inheritence scheme for cdbi models.
0.04 Tue Jan 3 16:04:56 CST 2006
- Made extra_args behave as Bigtop::Control::Gantry's docs say it should.
- Cleaned handling and error messages surrounding base_dir and app_dir
config statements.
- Documented --create's treatement of base_dir and app_dir.
- Added -c as an abbreviation for --create.
- Added not_for keyword for table fields, made the cdbi model pay
attention to it, so we can have a non-key id fields in the database,
but leave it out of the model (which would choke on it).
- Added not_for keyword for tables, made cdbi model pay attention to it,
so we can support users who like to edit GEN modules.
- Made postgres SQL backend respect not_for keyword on tables, allowing
models to be made for tables that will be created with something other
than the generated schema.sql.
- Added generation of CRUD_forms for the recently added
Gantry::Plugins::CRUD.
- Added --new as an option to bigtop script. It makes the directory
structure for a new app from scratch.
- Made Bigtop::Control::Gantry respect method level no_gen.
- Added literal statement at app level and made Postgres backend
honor it.
- Made Gantry::HttpdConf honor literal statement at app level.
- Added literal statement at controller level and made Gantry::HttpdConf
honor it.
- Renamed app level url to location.
- Renamed controller level url to rel_location and introduced the new
controller level location. The former are relative to the app location
while the latter are absolute.
- Added controller level set_vars block. Made B::HttpdConf::Gantry
and B::Control::Gantry backends honor it.
- Added col_labels to Gantry main_listing methods in B::C::Gantry.
0.03 Tue Dec 13 08:59:34 CST 2005
- Made corrections pointed out by using bigtop to make a second,
more complex app.
- Changed the name of the generation script to simply bigtop.
- Added vim syntax highlighting file to distribution.
- Made the gantry control generator quieter (it no longer tells
you about every file it decides not to overwrite).
- Made the cdbi model generator quieter (it no longer tells
you about every file it decides not to overwrite).
- Made it legal to define a controller with an empty block.
- Discarded GENed controllers that have nothing in them and kept all
references to them out of the corresponding stub.
- Added --create flag to bigtop script and now ignore (with a warning)
base_dir and app_dir in bigtop files when the new flag is not used.
0.02 Fri Oct 28 07:37:37 CDT 2005
- Made all the corrections pointed out by using bigtop to
make a production app.
- Expanded (or wrote) documentation of the modules.

-AXn WADL
