Bug Fixes

#985 Removes redundant asset path in favicon link

Upgrade Guide

• This release includes a new database migration. After updating the gem, you should also run:

  $ rake blacklight:install:migrations

  to get the latest migrations.

• If you are running Rails 3, you MUST set Blacklight.secret_key in an initializer. Consider using something like value of SecureRandom.hex(64) to seed this secret. This value should be private.

  Under Rails 4, Blacklight will use the application-wide secret key base.

Blacklight 5.3.0

Commit History | Milestone

New Features and improvements

• #840 add blacklight_config.show.route configuration for generating links to solr documents
• #842 extract#type_field_to_partial_name helper to translate a document format to a partial suffix
• #845 extract useful partials and helpers from layouts/blacklight so local applications can override the layout, but continue to use blacklight-provided functionality
• #846 add blacklight:check:solr and blacklight:check:controller rake tasks for validating Blacklight's connection to Solr

Bug Fixes

• #844 Fix the "Back to Search" behavior (arguably broken since Blacklgiht 4.5) from search results not on the first page. The new behavior also ensures if the user navigates to a result using the catalog#show pagination, the Back to Search link returns them to the search result page that includes their current document, not the one they started from.
• Fix ajax modal form selector to ensure forms within an ajax modal stay within the modal

Blacklight 5.2.0

Commit History | Milestone

This release contains a number of new features, but most importantly adds compatibility with Rails 4.1 and Ruby 2.1.1.

New Features and improvements

#787 Extract DocumentPresenter module from BlacklightHelperBehavior methods

#788 Extract RequestBuilder module from SolrHelper

#811 Add Spanish locale file

#783 add :include_in_request configuration option to augment add_facet_fields_to_solr_request! and add_field_configuration_to_solr_request!

#819 Add new configuration options for Solr requests for single documents, document_solr_path and document_unique_id_param, allowing Blacklight to work with the RealTimeGetComponent in Solr 4.x

#818 Add default_per_page configuration to the Blacklight configuration

#814 Generate jettywrapper as part of the blacklight:install process

#796 OpenStructWithHashAccess should respond to #to_json/#as_json as if it were a hash

#795 Facet HTML id attributes should be a parameterized version of the field name, not the field label

#794 Add more configuration examples to the generated blacklight config

#831 pass the current partial name to the document_partial_name helper, to allow partial-specific formats for documents

Bug Fixes

#821 Fix catalog#opensearch view under Rails 3.x

#791 Use ActiveSupport::Benchmarkable with instance-level accessors, not class-level accessors

#786 Ensure page titles are HTML safe

#785 Fix two-arg form of SolrHelper#find to pass through the solr request path

#780 remove unused #history_session accessor

Upgrade Notes

The HTML ID change in #795 may be backwards-incompatible in some applications. If your application's css or javascript uses the old-style HTML id calculation, you will need to either update your assets to use the new ID, or override the #facet_field_id helper to restore the old behavior.
