Change Log
0.4.7 released 2012-10-24
- add extra_context argument to View.render_json()
0.4.6 released 2012-07-16
- Fixed 0.4.5 regression: previously, a POST XHR would try for xhr() and then post() on a view class, but 0.4.5 would only try for xhr().
0.4.5 released 2012-07-09
- add include_rst() and include_mkdn() as functions available in Jinja templates
- css and js from included templates is now always included, regardless of where in the child template the include method is called.
- add "content" template filter which will merge css/js from the given content object into the parent template
- add link_css_url(), source_js_url() and complimentary head_link_tags() and head_script_tags() template functions to be able to include CSS/JS URLs from any template.
- make HTTP request method handling more robust. Its now easier to respond to request methods that are not GET/POST and we will now correctly return a 405 Method Not Allowed response when the view can not handle the request method sent over.
0.4.4 released 2011-11-09
- fix a nasty bug in the View arg processing that can alter formencode validator
