Changes for version 1.051 - 2020-04-11

  • Important!
    • Read-only fields are now hidden in forms built by the form plugin by default. These aren't editable, so there's no reason to display them. Use the new "properties" configuration to show them if desired.
    • The Yancy::Plugin::Auth module's login_form method now returns only the form itself, not the entire page. This means it is easier to include the login form in site layouts and other pages.
  • Added
    • Added "properties" configuration to Form plugins. This limits the form to only displaying those properties. Thanks @pavelsr for the patch! [Github #93, #94]
    • Added missing login forms for Github and OAuth2 auth modules. Now these will show up in the pluggable auth module
  • Fixed
    • Added more documentation for the form plugin and the auth plugins.
    • Fixed form plugin to get values from the current request. This allows forms with errors to have the values the user had entered.
    • Added more docs for x-foreign-key fields.
