## 2.0.0 * `HttpServer::start()` renamed to `HttpServer::run()`. It also possible to `.await` on `run` method result, in that case it awaits server exit. * `App::register_data()` renamed to `App::app_data()` and accepts any type `T: 'static`. Stored data is available via `HttpRequest::app_data()` method at runtime. * Extractor configuration must be registered with `App::app_data()` instead of `App::data()` * Sync handlers has been removed. `.to_async()` method has been renamed to `.to()` replace `fn` with `async fn` to convert sync handler to async * `actix_http_test::TestServer` moved to `actix_web::test` module. To start test server use `test::start()` or `test_start_with_config()` methods ## 1.0.1 * Cors middleware has been moved to `actix-cors` crate instead of ```rust use actix_web::middleware::cors::Cors; ``` use ```rust use actix_cors::Cors; ``` * Identity middleware has been moved to `actix-identity` crate instead of ```rust use actix_web::middleware::identity::{Identity, CookieIdentityPolicy, IdentityService}; ``` use ```rust use actix_identity::{Identity, CookieIdentityPolicy, IdentityService}; ``` ## 1.0.0 * Extractor configuration. In version 1.0 this is handled with the new `Data` mechanism for both setting and retrieving the configuration instead of ```rust #[derive(Default)] struct ExtractorConfig { config: String, } impl FromRequest for YourExtractor { type Config = ExtractorConfig; type Result = Result; fn from_request(req: &HttpRequest, cfg: &Self::Config) -> Self::Result { println!("use the config: {:?}", cfg.config); ... } } App::new().resource("/route_with_config", |r| { r.post().with_config(handler_fn, |cfg| { cfg.0.config = "test".to_string(); }) }) ``` use the HttpRequest to get the configuration like any other `Data` with `req.app_data::()` and set it with the `data()` method on the `resource` ```rust #[derive(Default)] struct ExtractorConfig { config: String, } impl FromRequest for YourExtractor { type Error = Error; type Future = Result; type Config = ExtractorConfig; fn from_request(req: &HttpRequest, payload: &mut Payload) -> Self::Future { let cfg = req.app_data::(); println!("config data?: {:?}", cfg.unwrap().role); ... } } App::new().service( resource("/route_with_config") .data(ExtractorConfig { config: "test".to_string(), }) .route(post().to(handler_fn)), ) ``` * Resource registration. 1.0 version uses generalized resource registration via `.service()` method. instead of ```rust App.new().resource("/welcome", |r| r.f(welcome)) ``` use App's or Scope's `.service()` method. `.service()` method accepts object that implements `HttpServiceFactory` trait. By default actix-web provides `Resource` and `Scope` services. ```rust App.new().service( web::resource("/welcome") .route(web::get().to(welcome)) .route(web::post().to(post_handler)) ``` * Scope registration. instead of ```rust let app = App::new().scope("/{project_id}", |scope| { scope .resource("/path1", |r| r.f(|_| HttpResponse::Ok())) .resource("/path2", |r| r.f(|_| HttpResponse::Ok())) .resource("/path3", |r| r.f(|_| HttpResponse::MethodNotAllowed())) }); ``` use `.service()` for registration and `web::scope()` as scope object factory. ```rust let app = App::new().service( web::scope("/{project_id}") .service(web::resource("/path1").to(|| HttpResponse::Ok())) .service(web::resource("/path2").to(|| HttpResponse::Ok())) .service(web::resource("/path3").to(|| HttpResponse::MethodNotAllowed())) ); ``` * `.with()`, `.with_async()` registration methods have been renamed to `.to()` and `.to_async()`. instead of ```rust App.new().resource("/welcome", |r| r.with(welcome)) ``` use `.to()` or `.to_async()` methods ```rust App.new().service(web::resource("/welcome").to(welcome)) ``` * Passing arguments to handler with extractors, multiple arguments are allowed instead of ```rust fn welcome((body, req): (Bytes, HttpRequest)) -> ... { ... } ``` use multiple arguments ```rust fn welcome(body: Bytes, req: HttpRequest) -> ... { ... } ``` * `.f()`, `.a()` and `.h()` handler registration methods have been removed. Use `.to()` for handlers and `.to_async()` for async handlers. Handler function must use extractors. instead of ```rust App.new().resource("/welcome", |r| r.f(welcome)) ``` use App's `to()` or `to_async()` methods ```rust App.new().service(web::resource("/welcome").to(welcome)) ``` * `HttpRequest` does not provide access to request's payload stream. instead of ```rust fn index(req: &HttpRequest) -> Box> { req .payload() .from_err() .fold((), |_, chunk| { ... }) .map(|_| HttpResponse::Ok().finish()) .responder() } ``` use `Payload` extractor ```rust fn index(stream: web::Payload) -> impl Future { stream .from_err() .fold((), |_, chunk| { ... }) .map(|_| HttpResponse::Ok().finish()) } ``` * `State` is now `Data`. You register Data during the App initialization process and then access it from handlers either using a Data extractor or using HttpRequest's api. instead of ```rust App.with_state(T) ``` use App's `data` method ```rust App.new() .data(T) ``` and either use the Data extractor within your handler ```rust use actix_web::web::Data; fn endpoint_handler(Data)){ ... } ``` .. or access your Data element from the HttpRequest ```rust fn endpoint_handler(req: HttpRequest) { let data: Option> = req.app_data::(); } ``` * AsyncResponder is removed, use `.to_async()` registration method and `impl Future<>` as result type. instead of ```rust use actix_web::AsyncResponder; fn endpoint_handler(...) -> impl Future{ ... .responder() } ``` .. simply omit AsyncResponder and the corresponding responder() finish method * Middleware instead of ```rust let app = App::new() .middleware(middleware::Logger::default()) ``` use `.wrap()` method ```rust let app = App::new() .wrap(middleware::Logger::default()) .route("/index.html", web::get().to(index)); ``` * `HttpRequest::body()`, `HttpRequest::urlencoded()`, `HttpRequest::json()`, `HttpRequest::multipart()` method have been removed. Use `Bytes`, `String`, `Form`, `Json`, `Multipart` extractors instead. instead of ```rust fn index(req: &HttpRequest) -> Responder { req.body() .and_then(|body| { ... }) } ``` use ```rust fn index(body: Bytes) -> Responder { ... } ``` * `actix_web::server` module has been removed. To start http server use `actix_web::HttpServer` type * StaticFiles and NamedFile has been move to separate create. instead of `use actix_web::fs::StaticFile` use `use actix_files::Files` instead of `use actix_web::fs::Namedfile` use `use actix_files::NamedFile` * Multipart has been move to separate create. instead of `use actix_web::multipart::Multipart` use `use actix_multipart::Multipart` * Response compression is not enabled by default. To enable, use `Compress` middleware, `App::new().wrap(Compress::default())`. * Session middleware moved to actix-session crate * Actors support have been moved to `actix-web-actors` crate * Custom Error Instead of error_response method alone, ResponseError now provides two methods: error_response and render_response respectively. Where, error_response creates the error response and render_response returns the error response to the caller. Simplest migration from 0.7 to 1.0 shall include below method to the custom implementation of ResponseError: ```rust fn render_response(&self) -> HttpResponse { self.error_response() } ``` ## 0.7.15 * The `' '` character is not percent decoded anymore before matching routes. If you need to use it in your routes, you should use `%20`. instead of ```rust fn main() { let app = App::new().resource("/my index", |r| { r.method(http::Method::GET) .with(index); }); } ``` use ```rust fn main() { let app = App::new().resource("/my%20index", |r| { r.method(http::Method::GET) .with(index); }); } ``` * If you used `AsyncResult::async` you need to replace it with `AsyncResult::future` ## 0.7.4 * `Route::with_config()`/`Route::with_async_config()` always passes configuration objects as tuple even for handler with one parameter. ## 0.7 * `HttpRequest` does not implement `Stream` anymore. If you need to read request payload use `HttpMessage::payload()` method. instead of ```rust fn index(req: HttpRequest) -> impl Responder { req .from_err() .fold(...) .... } ``` use `.payload()` ```rust fn index(req: HttpRequest) -> impl Responder { req .payload() // <- get request payload stream .from_err() .fold(...) .... } ``` * [Middleware](https://actix.rs/actix-web/actix_web/middleware/trait.Middleware.html) trait uses `&HttpRequest` instead of `&mut HttpRequest`. * Removed `Route::with2()` and `Route::with3()` use tuple of extractors instead. instead of ```rust fn index(query: Query<..>, info: Json impl Responder {} ``` use tuple of extractors and use `.with()` for registration: ```rust fn index((query, json): (Query<..>, Json impl Responder {} ``` * `Handler::handle()` uses `&self` instead of `&mut self` * `Handler::handle()` accepts reference to `HttpRequest<_>` instead of value * Removed deprecated `HttpServer::threads()`, use [HttpServer::workers()](https://actix.rs/actix-web/actix_web/server/struct.HttpServer.html#method.workers) instead. * Renamed `client::ClientConnectorError::Connector` to `client::ClientConnectorError::Resolver` * `Route::with()` does not return `ExtractorConfig`, to configure extractor use `Route::with_config()` instead of ```rust fn main() { let app = App::new().resource("/index.html", |r| { r.method(http::Method::GET) .with(index) .limit(4096); // <- limit size of the payload }); } ``` use ```rust fn main() { let app = App::new().resource("/index.html", |r| { r.method(http::Method::GET) .with_config(index, |cfg| { // <- register handler cfg.limit(4096); // <- limit size of the payload }) }); } ``` * `Route::with_async()` does not return `ExtractorConfig`, to configure extractor use `Route::with_async_config()` ## 0.6 * `Path` extractor return `ErrorNotFound` on failure instead of `ErrorBadRequest` * `ws::Message::Close` now includes optional close reason. `ws::CloseCode::Status` and `ws::CloseCode::Empty` have been removed. * `HttpServer::threads()` renamed to `HttpServer::workers()`. * `HttpServer::start_ssl()` and `HttpServer::start_tls()` deprecated. Use `HttpServer::bind_ssl()` and `HttpServer::bind_tls()` instead. * `HttpRequest::extensions()` returns read only reference to the request's Extension `HttpRequest::extensions_mut()` returns mutable reference. * Instead of `use actix_web::middleware::{ CookieSessionBackend, CookieSessionError, RequestSession, Session, SessionBackend, SessionImpl, SessionStorage};` use `actix_web::middleware::session` `use actix_web::middleware::session{CookieSessionBackend, CookieSessionError, RequestSession, Session, SessionBackend, SessionImpl, SessionStorage};` * `FromRequest::from_request()` accepts mutable reference to a request * `FromRequest::Result` has to implement `Into>` * [`Responder::respond_to()`]( https://actix.rs/actix-web/actix_web/trait.Responder.html#tymethod.respond_to) is generic over `S` * Use `Query` extractor instead of HttpRequest::query()`. ```rust fn index(q: Query>) -> Result<..> { ... } ``` or ```rust let q = Query::>::extract(req); ``` * Websocket operations are implemented as `WsWriter` trait. you need to use `use actix_web::ws::WsWriter` ## 0.5 * `HttpResponseBuilder::body()`, `.finish()`, `.json()` methods return `HttpResponse` instead of `Result` * `actix_web::Method`, `actix_web::StatusCode`, `actix_web::Version` moved to `actix_web::http` module * `actix_web::header` moved to `actix_web::http::header` * `NormalizePath` moved to `actix_web::http` module * `HttpServer` moved to `actix_web::server`, added new `actix_web::server::new()` function, shortcut for `actix_web::server::HttpServer::new()` * `DefaultHeaders` middleware does not use separate builder, all builder methods moved to type itself * `StaticFiles::new()`'s show_index parameter removed, use `show_files_listing()` method instead. * `CookieSessionBackendBuilder` removed, all methods moved to `CookieSessionBackend` type * `actix_web::httpcodes` module is deprecated, `HttpResponse::Ok()`, `HttpResponse::Found()` and other `HttpResponse::XXX()` functions should be used instead * `ClientRequestBuilder::body()` returns `Result<_, actix_web::Error>` instead of `Result<_, http::Error>` * `Application` renamed to a `App` * `actix_web::Reply`, `actix_web::Resource` moved to `actix_web::dev`
