ReleaseNotes0_5_5

Mojito Release 0.5.5

Mojito 0.5.5 is now tagged and available on npm. List of changes between 0.5.4 and 0.5.5 here.

Compatibility

Performance optimizations introduced in this release have resulted in internal API changes. This impacts 3rd party components that are using protected or internal store APIs, e.g. Shaker. A new Shaker version will be released very soon to address these changes. In the meantime, you can follow mojito-shaker#43.

Here are details of the API changes.

• We removed store event getMojitTypeDetails. The replacement is resolveMojitDetails, though the datastructure is different.
• We removed store event mojitResourcesResolved.
• We removed store.getResources().
• We added store.optimizeForEnvironment().
• We added store.makeStaticHandlerDetails().
• store.yui.getAllURLResources() is now called store.yui.getAllURLDetails() and returns a different datastructure.
• For both store.getResourceContent() and store.procesResourceContent(), the datastructure representing the resource has changed.
• store.getResourceVerions() should not be called during runtime. It can still be called during the events that happen during preload.
• store.yui.getConfigShared() now just takes the env argument.
• We removed store.yui.getConfigAllMojits(). Some users were calling getConfigAllMojits and using the results with getConfigShared to configure a YUI instance. Now instead we suggest using getModulesConfig() to replace this pair of calls.
• We added store.yui.getModulesConfig().
• We added store.yui.getYUIConfig().
• store.yui.getAppSeedFiles() now takes a yui configuration as the second argument.
• store.yui.getYUIURLResources() is now called store.yui.getYUIURLDetails() and returns a different datastructure.

Please see the API docs for details of each.

Features

• Global models thru ac.models.expose() upgraded from experimental to beta.
• #1011 Support for Handlebars helpers through mojito-helpers-addon and support for global Handlebars helpers using ac.helpers.expose(). This is an experimental feature!
• #978 Introducing error propagation in mojito-composite-addon by using the flag propagateFailure in a child.
• #997 Introduced a clear separation between YUI core modules and app-specific YUI modules. YUI core modules are now served from CDN by default; they are only served by the app origin server if staticHandling.serveYUIFromAppOrigin is set in application.json. This change optimizes the initial load time of the app as well as its offline capabilities when using mojito build html5app.
• Improved Resource Store: minimized memory footprint.
• Upgraded to YUI 3.8.1
