Required for REST URLs which require data to be populated on call.
For example, PUT admin/campaigns/set/:id/publish to publish a campaign.
At the time when createEndpointFetcher() is called, the ":id" parameter can not be resolved,
since the "data" argument is passed in once the returned function is evaluated (since the component using it).
Since the whole idea of createEndpointFetcher() is that components shouldn't know about the backend internals,
its not the right place to interpolate urls.
I'm sending through any payload data in addition to replacing URLs, to keep the API simple for the component.
Again, it shouldn't worry about the presence URL interpolation. The trade off here is that data will be submitted
both in the payload (in case of a POST, PUT or DELETE request), as well as (optionally) in the URL.
Tests were previously excluded from eslint calls. This leads to messier
code inside tests, and potentially errors.
Now they all meet the listing rules, and so we don’t need to ignore
tests in .eslintignore.
SilverStripeBackend now has a createEndpointFetcher method, described
in its docblock in more detail.
It’s based the asset-admin code for apiCallerFromEndpoint(). It’s
refactored and generalised into framework in order to provide a
general-purpose API for tying Javascript components to backend APIs.
@todo: tests
FIX: Ensure post has correct content-type header.
Exporting silverstripe-backend lets other modules (such as asset-admin)
use it.
In addition, the Content-type header of a post request of URL-encoded
data was being set to text/plain by default, which isn’t correct and
stopped PHP from interpreting it.
- 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
In the html editor, when inserting a 'Download a file' link without selecting a file to link to, no link should be inserted. Currently is inserting a link to an undefined file id: [file_link,id=undefined]
- Adds ES6 support via Babel
- Transforms existing JavaScript to UMD modules
- Adds module bundling via Browserify
- Existing JavaScript converted to UMD modules
- lib.js and leftandmain.js are bundled using browserify
- JavaScript minifying of bundles handed by gulp
