Version 2.2.0

Bugs Fixed

• #170: Don't run Taffy's onError handler if errors occur inside a path included in unhandledPaths
• #172: Updated examples and documentation to use onApplicationStart instead of applicationStartEvent and onRequestStart instead of requestStartEvent.
• #178: ETag header was not being returned when client supplied an ETag but the value didn't match (e.g. client cache out of date)
• #182: Dashboard would throw an exception when using Hoth exception logging because its config is a simple string instead of an object. Updated the dashboard code to account for this situation.
• #184: Typo in baseRepresentation.cfc has been fixed.

New Features

• #169: If your JSON POST body is not a structure ({...}) then it will be passed to the resource as named argument _body. This includes simple values, arrays, etc.
• #179: New logo!

Thanks

Special thanks to Aaron Martone, Andy Matthews, and w1nterl0ng for your help designing the logo, and Tony Junkes for the final design!

Version 2.1.0

Bugs Fixed

• #166 Dashboard: Fix a bug where body wasn't pre-filling if the resource only has post/put verbs. Thanks to @jbvanzuylen for the pull request!
• #165 Fixed dashboard display issue in Firefox and IE (apparently floats don't work the same way everywhere?)
• #173 Updated ColdSpring example to use onApplicationStart instead of applicationStartEvent. Thanks to @billrawlinson for the pull request!
• #121 A few of the tests were failing on Railo4 BER - these have all been addressed
• Fixed a weird issue with CGI variables on IIS7

New Features

• #167 Added ability to delete a streamed file after streaming is complete. Thanks to @dominic-oconnor for the pull request!
• #174 Added an exception logging adapter that dumps the error to the screen (cfdump) instead of logging it. Thanks to @billrawlinson for the pull request!
• #155 Pass all non-framework metadata for resource functions (e.g. get/post/put/delete) to a new argument of onTaffyRequest. Enables fun stuff like role-based security. Here's a basic example of how to use it.
• Show the original exception if another exception occurs during exception logging. (Both are shown, original below new)
• Include a full, structured stack trace when returning exceptions as json (if it's available).
• Added an exception logging adapter that doesn't log anything anywhere (good for dev if you're returning exceptions as json)

Obsoletions

Since this is the first major-version change since Taffy 1.0, just over 3 years ago, it's time to clean house a bit. Together, we've learned a lot about what makes Taffy great and what wasn't so great about it. In the last 3 years, many things have been deprecated. As of 2.0.0, they are all now removed. Onward and upward!

Need a migration guide? Here it is!

In addition to the previously deprecated features being removed, we're also taking this opportunity to rip off a band-aid, as it were: The applicationStartEvent() and requestStartEvent() methods were always a little bit of a kludge, and the only benefit they provided was that you didn't need to worry about calling super.onApplicationStart() and super.onRequestStart() respectively.

While that hand-holding seemed like a good idea at the time, the truth is that calling super-methods is a pretty basic concept for OOP, and it's more important that I help you learn to do it right (if needed) than to hold your hand like a child. I want you to be awesome. Be awesome!

As of Taffy 2.0.0, instead of applicationStartEvent() you should use onApplicationStart() and call super.onApplicationStart() (required!); and instead of requestStartEvent(), use onRequestStart() and call super.onRequestStart() (required!). If you're not sure where the best place in your code would be to make the super- calls, check the Migration Guide.
