CHANGELOG

3.0.0 (2017-10-20)

Breaking changes

Please refer to upgrading docs for detailed migration instructions.

• acl and traverse parameters are not supported anymore on services
• Constructors of resource decorated classed must now be __init__(self, request, context=None)

Enhancements

Bug fixes

• Disable CSRF check on predicate fallback view (fixes #458)

2.4.0 (2017-01-19)

Enhancements

• Add support for arrays on request body top level.

2.3.0 (2016-12-15)

Enhancements

• Add support for validation with specific JSON Content-Types (i.e application/merge-patch+json).
• Add X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff headers to responses (fixes #102)
• Add a request.current_service attribute (fixes #105)

Bug fixes

• Fix cornice.cors.get_cors_preflight_view to make it parse Access-Control-Request-Headers header correctly event if its value contains zero number of white spaces between commas (#422)

Internal changes

• Clean-up an inconsistency in cornice.service.decorate_view() function where acl and factory were expected as view arguments (whereas deprecated since 1.0)

2.2.0 (2016-11-25)

Enhancements

• Add support of custom predicates in resources (#344, thanks @VDigitall!)

Internal changes

• Assert proper behaviour of UTF-8 content JSON body (#366, thanks @thruflo!)

2.1.0 (2016-10-28)

Enhancements

• Cornice.validators.colander_validator and cornice.validators.colander_body_validator now accept colander schema node instances. Previously only schema classes were accepted. For some discussion see #412.

Deprecations

• Passing schema classes to Cornice.validators.colander_validator and cornice.validators.colander_body_validator is now deprecated. (See above.)

Bug fixes

• To maintain consistency with cornice 1.2 as to the semantics of location='path', change cornice.validators.extract_cstruct so that it places request.matchdict (rather than request.path) into cstruct['path']. (#411)
• Fix cornice.validators.colander_validator so that it does nothing if schema is unset (or set to None.) Previously (contrary to its docstring) it was raising a TypeError.

• Raised test coverage to 100% (#417)

Huge thanks to @dairiki for his help on this release!
