v1.13.0

Install

luarocks install lapis

Additions

• Add the lapis simulate command to simulate a request to the application
  without starting a server. This is useful for testing and debugging. See
  lapis simulate --help for details about usage.
• Add support for SQLite (See lapis.db.sqlite, lapis.db.sqlite.model,
  lapis.db.sqlite.schema`)
• Add request:get_request() method to get a reference to the request object.
  (Note this just returns self, but it is useful in cases where the request
  object is being proxied through the helper chain of a widget)

Changes

• The default error page will now render a JSON response if the accept
  request header is set to application/json
• content_for now stores content blocks directly on the request object
  (prefixed with _content_for). This may solve a bug where widget helper
  chain could have cached an outdated copy of the content_for state.
• content_for will now throw an error if attempted to be used in a context
  without a request object
• Layout content rendering has been simplified to avoid additional closure and
  function scope created
• The resolved layout is now written to request.options (aka self.options)
  so that the view can know if a layout will be rendered within the current
  request. Note: actions that skip layout by default (eg. json, redirect_to)
  will write false to options.layout.
• Internal refactors to all of the database modules, removal of some
  undocumented functions (removed set_backend, set_logger, get_logger, init_logger)
• Updated generated SQL for MySQL in some places to output keywords in capitals
• lapis.db.pagination Paginators now have a simple fallback for clause
  generation when the database module lacks a clause parser. (Will work for
  simple queries without aggregates instead of throwing an error when calling
  total_items and has_items)
• lapis.spec Remove undocumented test helpers: use_db_connection, assert_no_queries.
• lapis.spec use_test_env and use_test_server no longer interact with
  database connection in setup and teardown.
• lapis.spec.request The mocked ngx object now covers more fields to make
  it suitable for more kinds of requests
