I've decoupled `Cookie` from the actual act of setting and getting
cookies. Currently there are a few limitations to how Cookie works that
this change mitigates:
0. `Cookie` currently changes the super global `$_COOKIE` when setting
to make the state of an application a bit more managable, but this is
bad because we shouldn't be modifying super globals
0. One can't actually change the `$cookie_class` once the
`Cookie::$inst` has been instantiated
0. One can't test cookies as there is no class that holds the state of
the cookies (it's just held in the super global which is reset as part
of `Director::test()`
0. One can't tell the origin of a cookie (eg: did the application set it
and it needs to be sent, or did we receive it from the browser?)
0. `time()` was used, so testing was made difficult
0. There was no way to get all the cookies at once (without accessing
the super global)
Todos are on the phpdoc and I'd like to write some tests for the backend
as well as update the docs (if there are any) around cookies.
DOCS Adding `Cookie` docs
Explains basic usage of `Cookie` as well as how the `Cookie_Backend`
controls the setting and getting of cookies and manages state of sent vs
received cookies
Fixing `Cookie` usage
`Cookie` is being used inconsistently with the API throughout framework.
Either by not using `force_expiry` to expire cookies or setting them to
null and then expiring them (which is redundant).
NEW `Director::test()` takes `Cookie_Backend` rather than `array` for `$cookies` param
Example: you have a site in a sub-directory off the webroot, you call
->Link() on a SiteTree record, which returns "/[sitedir]/my-page", and
you pass this URL to Director::test(). It's a valid URL, but
Director::test() will throw a 404.
Director::test() should be ensuring that all URLs passed to it are
properly made relative, not just in the case where it thinks the URL
is absolute.
Move functionality from static start and destroy functions into instance
methods, allowing these to be overloaded. This works the same way as
calling Session::set() which then in turn calls inst_set()
Additionally use Injector to create the default Session instance to
allow the class to be swapped out.
BUG Resolve issue with DirectorTest breaking RequestProcessor
Injector::nest and Injector::unnest are introduced to better support sandboxing of testings.
Injector and Config ::nest and ::unnest support chaining
Test cases for both Injector::nest and Config::nest
Anchors should never make it to the server when they are in the browser URL bar, however tests are slightly different and some `Link()` functions may return a URL anchor. Instead of every test checking a link and stripping the anchor, I feel the Director::test() function should strip them off.
Updates the CMS profile page and SecurityAdmin to give developers a few ways to customise the required fields.
Added extension hook updateValidator for getValidator for things like modules to inject required fields to go along with Injector for replacing the entire class for project specific use.
The functionality is easy to replicate in custom controllers,
and is too rarely used to be placed in core.
This also removes the `Member::is_repeat_member()` getter
and the `PastMember`/`IsRepeatMember` template globals.
