Dancer2 0.205000 improves application speed, deprecates request->dispatch_path
by Jason A. Crome 10 Mar '17

Dancer2 0.205000 is on it's way to CPAN, and brings with it a number of bug fixes, documentation improvements, and enhancements. The changes with the most potential impact to your existing applications include: - Migrating from `MooX::Types` to `Type::Tiny`. This will improve the speed of any Dancer2 application automatically. - Deprecating `request->dispatch_path`. This was originally introduced to fix a buggy `request->path` implementation; fixing `request->path` caused `dispatch_path` to incorrectly fail a route match when `SCRIPT_NAME` was also a prefix of the `PATH_INFO`. `request->path` now functions as intended, and is the preferred method of dispatch. `request->dispatch_path` will throw a warning if used, and will call `request->path` instead. The method will be removed entirely two releases from now. - A new method is being added to Dancer2 applications, `prepare_app()`. This method will eventually get called automatically when `to_app()` is invoked. In preparation of this, any application that may already contain a `prepare_app()` method will complain - loudly - that implementation of this method is coming. Expect to see the final implementation of `prepare_app()` two releases from now.
