Radiant 0.6.5 has been a long time coming! And just to be sure, we want to release a candidate or two to make sure we have everything solid. There are some really major changes in this release, and here's the two big ones:
* Rails 2.0.2 included * RSpec is used in core and supported in extensions You can download the Radiant 0.6.5 RC1 from http://radiantcms.org/downloads/radiant-0.6.5-RC1.gem. This release candidate is intended for developers and is NOT intended for production use. Please report any bugs you find to the development site at http://dev.radiantcms.org/. == Installation To install use the gem command (with 'sudo' as necessary): $ gem install radiant-0.6.5-RC1.gem The gem will install as 'radiant-0.6.5'. === Upgrading an existing project/site 1. Change the RADIANT_GEM_VERSION constant in config/environment.rb to "0.6.5" 2. Update the Radiant assets in your project: $ rake radiant:update 3. Copy your customizations back into config/environment.rb, if necessary (see below). 4. Migrate the database if you are running 0.6.2 or earlier: $ rake production db:migrate 5. Restart the server === Creating a new project/site 1. Invoke the 'radiant' command with your desired database driver: $ radiant -d sqlite3 my_project 2. Bootstrap the database: $ cd my_project $ rake db:bootstrap 3. Startup the server and try it out! $ script/server == Internal Changes to config/environment.rb This release has required a lot of changes to the internal API of Radiant. End-users should be unaffected, but as a result of these requirements, we have made significant changes to config/environment.rb and config/boot.rb. When updating your existing projects, config/environment.rb will be copied to config/environment.bak. You will need to manually copy any customizations, especially config.extensions and any other libraries, etc. that you require. *DO NOT* copy config.load_paths, config.plugin_paths, or any of those items to the new file; those settings have been internalized in this release. Thanks again for everyone's contributions!
