CHANGELOG.md

2.1.0 (unreleased)

Core

• Drop Rails 3 support.

• Upgrade from bootstrap 2 to 3. Including restyle.

• I18n support. Local defaults to same language as main app, but can be overwritten by initializer specifically for Brightcontent.

• Registration of extensions in core. When registered the javascript and css are included from the specific extension. Register extension by calling Brightcontent.register_extension('extension_name').

• Configurable how many resource items are shown in the main menu. Defaults to 6. The remaining gets aggregated in dropdown menu. Configurable by overwriting config.main_menu_count.

• Improve partial lookup. First look for specific partial (_list_field_name.html), then search for type partial (_list_field_sting.html) and else fallback to default view.

• New macros to defining list_fields and form_fields. Old way of overwriting is still supported. Instead of overwriting methods:

    class Brightcontent::PagesController < Brightcontent::BaseController
      private
  
      def list_fields
        %w{name author created_at}
      end
  
      def form_fields
        %w{name body author}
      end
    end
  

  Use macros:

    class Brightcontent::PagesController < Brightcontent::BaseController
      list_fields :name, :author, :created_at
      form_fields :name, :body, :author
    end
  

• Use gravatar for current logged in admin.

• Remove has_scope functionallity. (WIP: Should be replaced by Ransack gem)

Pages

• Remove root_parent_children method which was unused.

• Use ERB templates for rendering of tree. This is less performant but increases maintainability.

• Add PathConstraint. Limit the amount of urls the catch-all route responds to by constraining. The PathConstraint class caches all paths in the database. Example:

    get "*path" => "pages#show", constraints: Brightcontent::Pages::PathConstraint.new
  

Attachments

• Refactoring: move attachments classes to correct namespace.
