Hello everybody. It's been a while, but at least I have some good news to
share: We've just put 2.2.0rc2 out.
At this point, unless we find something seriously wrong, this is likely to
become to 2.2 release officially. I've worked with Alessandro, and cleared
up the issues we were seeing on jenkins.turbogears.org. We've upgraded many
of our support packages. We've added more renderers, and more options. 2.2
looks amazing to me, and I think you'll feel the same way.
The changes are listed below, but here's how to get it and try it out:
virtualenv ${HOME}/tg22rc2
source ${HOME}/tg22rc2/bin/activate
easy_install -i http://tg.gy/220rc2 tg.devtools
paster quickstart tgtest
# answer the questions here how you see fit
cd tgtest
python setup.py tgtestdevelop
paster setup-app development.ini
paster serve development.ini
# now point a web browser at http://localhost:8080/
You should be up and running within 5 minutes.
Here's the changes:
TG2 Core Updates:
- Template engines in tw2.core could collide, based on template
extensions. Fixed.
- Subclassed controllers now keep the decorations inherited from their
parents
- repoze.who v2 is now supported
- Form validation now supports TW2 validation dictionaries, less
dependent on FormEncode
- When multiple renderers are registered for the same content type, the
default renderer is now preferred
- URL keyword args, marked for removal in 2.2, are now removed.
- Ming setup issues are resolved, and Ming is in its own module
- repoze.who v2 is not compatible with repoze.what v1. New compatible
module has been provided to make code change minimal.
- Jinja templates must now have the extension .jinja Conflicts with
.html were being found when Genshi and Jinja were mixed in the same project.
- Mako option "reloadfromdisk" has been deprecated. Use
"auto_reload_templates" as this is the default for other rendering engines
- __before__ and __after__ were renamed to _before and _after in the
past. Code and documentation now reflects this.
Devtools / Quickstart Updates
- New applications will be set up to use repoze.who v2 by default
- Improvements to the quickstart look, layout, and content
- Quickstarts now support Kajiki as a rendering engine
- Twitter Bootstrap support in quickstart
- Genshi is always available in new quickstarted projects. Provides a
common template language for use in extensions
- Sessions are now stored in encrypted cookies
