Now that Mandrill has become a paid part of Campaign Monitor it makes sense for us to recommend the free alternative SparkPost.
The package I've linked to is by the same author as the original Mandrill package.
API Remove DataObject::validateModelDefinitions, and move to DataObjectSchema
API Remove deprecated 3.0 syntax for addSelect()
API made DataList::createDataObject public
API Move component parsing logic to DataObjectSchema
API Remove support for triangular has_many / belongs_many relationships
The 'admin' module will be split off from 'framework',
where 'framework' only provides (mostly) frontend-agnostic PHP classes.
For example, HTMLEditorField.php has a TinyMCEConfig.php driver,
but doesn't come with its own JS includes.
Responsibility for finding and referencing images and fonts is now
given to webpack. All the url references are now relative to the
component scss file, and point to font & images files in src/, rather
than assuming someone else will place them in dist.
This makes the source more modular, and makes it easier to, for
example, inline images are data URIs, or create a new build script that
builds several modules for a project in a single pass.
Workaround for bad font path in bundle.css:
ExtactTextPlugin didn’t work as well with a subfolder reference in the
filename. This is just a short-term fix and could probably be improved
to put bundle.css back in the styles subfolder.
Webpack handles images & fonts:

Clarify docs on spriting and webfonts:
We've decided to remove sprity since it comes with hundreds of dependencies,
and needs compilation within the "npm install" - dragging out the already overweight
install process, and making the resulting node_modules/ folder less portable between systems.
The bundle is generated by running “webpack” directly - gulp is no
longer needed as an intermediary. The resulting config is a lot shorter,
although more configuration is pushed into lib.js.
Modules are shared between javascript files as global variables.
Although this global state pollution is a bit messy, I don’t think it’s
practically any worse than the previous state, and it highlights the
heavy coupling between the different packages we have in place.
Reducing the width of the coupling between the core javascript and
add-on modules would probably be a better way of dealing with this than
replacing global variables with some other kind of global state.
The web pack execution seems roughly twice as fast - if I clear out my
framework/client/dist/js folder, it takes 13.3s to rebuild. However,
it’s not rebuilding other files inside dist, only the bundle files.
CSS files are now included from javascript and incorporated into
bundle.css by the webpack. Although the style-loader is helpful in some
dev workflows (it allows live reload), it introduces a flash of
unstyled content which makes it inappropriate for production.
Instead ExtractTextPlugin is used to write all the aggregated CSS
into a single bundle.css file. A style-loader-based configuration could
be introduced for dev environments, if we make use of the webpack live
reloader in the future.
Note that the following features have been removed as they don't appear to be
necessary when using Webpack:
- UMD module generation
- thirdparty dist file copying
LeftAndMain.js deps: Without it, ssui.core.js gets loaded too late,
which leads e.g. to buttons being initialised without this added behaviour.
API Remove DataList::applyFilterContext(), superseded by DataList::createSearchFilter()

BUG Fix issue with ViewableData caching incorrect field values after being modified.
API Remove deprecated DB class methods
API Enforce plain text left/right formfield titles
Also created a contributing/coding_conventions landing page separately from the PHP ones, since we now need to account for JS and CSS conventions as well
* Swap out .Actions class for bootstrap .btn-toolbar
* Converted all south toolbars to use new toolbar component styles, content and preview styles for scrollbars adjusted where required
* More pointers to new build tooling docs in upgrading guide
* Fixed docs references to moved files
We don't want to mandate every module to switch from javascript/ to client/src,
but at the same time shouldn't reference non-existant files and confuse newcomers that way.
* More pointers to new React docs
The Bay of Plenty Rugby team is the Steamers, and play in the NPC (National Provincial Championship), hailing from the Te Ika a Maui (North Island).
The Canterbury Crusaders (note the alliteration) hail from Te Waipounamu (South Island), and are an entry in the Super Rugby championship, which is an international affair (also known as the Super12, Super15 & most recently Super18), in which the Bay of Plenty is (most unfortunately, depending on your disposition) drafted under the Waikato region's entry with The Chiefs. Being the most popular sport and widely announced news topic in the country means that even people that don't particuarly follow rugby know this, and simple trolls (whether intentional or not) cannot be allowed to slide past quality control; for those that do can get quite upset about this kind of thing. Plus international folk can't be getting the wrong idea; Everyone knows the internet is no place for misinformation!
This task appears to have been superseded by a new task called `RegenerateCachedImagesTask` but it was not documented, so `FlushGeneratedImagesTask` simply appeared to have vanished. This will update the documentation to reflect this change for both v3.2 and v3.3 (separate PR).
- Removes thirdparty dependency History.js
- Adds thirdparty dependency Page.js to manage client-side routing
- Adds a wrapper around Page.js for SilverStripe specific behaviour
- Increased minimum browser requirement to IE10. Native HTML History API routing requires IE10 or newer (necessitated by removal of History.js)
- PJAX pannel loading via now uses promises rather than callbacks
- Adds getClientConfig method to LeftAndMain which can be used to pass config from to the front-end client
API: Deprecate SS_Datetime.
The DBField subclasses are have all been renamed to start with “DB” and
be in the SilverStripe\Model\FieldType namespace. To keep DataObject
definitions concise, the original short variations of their names are
preserved as service definitions. Most of the field generation code
doesn’t need to change, but where field classes are referenced directly,
changes will be needed.
SS_Datetime, which is commonly referenced outside the model system
itself, has been preserved as a subclass of DBDatetime. This has been
marked as deprecated and can be removed in SilverStripe 5.
A few places that referred to $db and $casting values weren’t using
the Injector to instantiate the relevant classes. This meant that the
remapping we have created as part of moving classes into a namespace
didn’t work.
API Implemented recursive versioned actions (publish, etc)
API Un-deprecate delete batch action
API Changed Versioned getters and setters for stages
BUG Inject query parameters during DataObject construction to prevent incorrect lazy loading

Rely on standard vendor/bin/phpunit via CLI instead.
See https://github.com/silverstripe/silverstripe-framework/issues/4254
- Not disabling xdebug. That should be harmful, and is actively harming test development
- No longer able to specifically skip tests via the `SkipTests` request parameter. Use phpunit.xml groups and the `--exclude-group` CLI argument instead
- No longer able to specify multiple comma-separated module folders. use phpunit.xml groups and the `--group` CLI argument instead
- Not explicitly calling `SSViewer::flush_template_cache()` (was never the case on running `phpunit` CLI anyway, and shouldn't be required any more)
API Improved support for versioned DataObject
API GridField extensions for versioned dataobjects
API De-couple File and ErrorPage
API File::handle_shortcode now respects canView()
