Changes for version 2.0000_01

  • ENHANCEMENTS
    • Dancer::Test takes a hash instead of an array for better backward compatibility with Dancer 1. (Celogeek)

    • Add route_exists and route_doesnt_exist in Dancer::Test (Mokko)
    • session cookie duration can be expressed with human readable strings
    • instead of numeric values (Alexis Sukrieh, issue #157).
  • BUG FIXES
    • The engine configuration is now passed down to Dancer::Template::Implementation::ForkedTiny (Damien Krotkine).
    • Dancer App lookup now try to detect the dir "bin" and "lib" or ".dancer" file. (Celogeek)
    • Issues #125 and #126 Support for configuration bits for session objects, possible to change the cookie name instead of the hard-coded value 'dancer.session'. (Reported by David Golden, fixed by Alexis Sukrieh).
  • DOCUMENTATION
    • Add more POD in Dancer::Test (Mokko)
