Pyramid 1.4a3 has been released. Here's what happened since the last
release in the 1.4 series (1.4a2):
1.4a3 (2012-10-26)
==================
Bug Fixes
---------
- The match_param predicate's text method was fixed to sort its
values. Part of https://github.com/Pylons/pyramid/pull/705
- 1.4a ``pyramid.scripting.prepare`` behaved differently than 1.3
series function of same name. In particular, if passed a request,
it would not set the ``registry`` attribute of the request like
1.3 did. A symptom would be that passing a request to
``pyramid.paster.bootstrap`` (which uses the function) that did
not have a ``registry`` attribute could assume that the registry
would be attached to the request by Pyramid. This assumption
could be made in 1.3, but not in 1.4. The assumption can now be
made in 1.4 too (a registry is attached to a request passed to
bootstrap or prepare).
- When registering a view configuration that named a Chameleon ZPT
renderer with a macro name in it
(e.g. ``renderer='some/template#somemacro.pt``) as well as a view
configuration without a macro name it it that pointed to the same
template (e.g. ``renderer='some/template.pt'``), internal caching
could confuse the two, and your code might have rendered one
instead of the other.
Features
--------
- Allow multiple values to be specified to the ``request_param``
view/route predicate as a sequence. Previously only a single
string value was allowed. See
https://github.com/Pylons/pyramid/pull/705
- Comments with references to documentation sections placed in
scaffold ``.ini`` files.
- Added an HTTP Basic authentication policy at
``pyramid.authentication.BasicAuthAuthenticationPolicy``.
- The Configurator ``testing_securitypolicy`` method now returns the
policy object it creates.
- The Configurator ``testing_securitypolicy`` method accepts two new
arguments: ``remember_result`` and ``forget_result``. If
supplied, these values influence the result of the policy's
``remember`` and ``forget`` methods, respectively.
- The DummySecurityPolicy created by ``testing_securitypolicy`` now
sets a ``forgotten`` value on the policy (the value ``True``) when
its ``forget`` method is called.
- The DummySecurityPolicy created by ``testing_securitypolicy`` now
sets a ``remembered`` value on the policy, which is the value of
the ``principal`` argument it's called with when its ``remember``
method is called.
- New ``physical_path`` view predicate. If specified, this value
should be a string or a tuple representing the physical traversal
path of the context found via traversal for this predicate to
match as true. For example: ``physical_path='/'`` or
``physical_path='/a/b/c'`` or ``physical_path=('', 'a', 'b',
'c')``. This is not a path prefix match or a regex, it's a
whole-path match. It's useful when you want to always potentially
show a view when some object is traversed to, but you can't be
sure about what kind of object it will be, so you can't use the
``context`` predicate. The individual path elements inbetween
slash characters or in tuple elements should be the Unicode
representation of the name of the resource and should not be
encoded in any way.
