Lapis v1.8.0 has been released.

Deprecations

• The flip and local_key used with include_in or any relations are now deprecated. Replacement syntax available in documentation for Model\include_in

Additions

• Add support for a column mapping table when specifying the key for include_in and any relations. See more documentation for Model\include_in
• Add support for composite foreign keys with include_in and relations
• each_item method for Paginators that will return a Lua iterator for going over every row but queries in batches set by per_page
• An ordered option can be passed to Model\paginated an get_X_paginated to create an OrderedPaginator instead of a OffsetPaginator
• Add skip_render action render option to prevent Lapis from writing anything (Suitable for manually writing to output buffer with something like ngx.print)
• fetch relations can now specify if they return a collection of items with many so nested preloading can traverse the loaded objects
• add serve alias for the lapis server command line command
• add app_only code cache option for cqueues to attempt to load app on every dispatch
• A resty_mysql object can be included in the MySQL configuration object to provide additional parameters when initializng a resty.mysql connection
• Pgmoon connections will now read the timeout field from the PostgreSQL config object (Contributed by turbo 679)
• Add set_logger and get_logger functions to the lapis.db.mysql and lapis.db.postgres module
• (lapis.db.postgres) escape_identifier function will now flatten db.list objects into raw SQL
• (lapis.db.postgres.schema) create_index support a concurrently option to create index concurrently (Contributed by Michael Ball 659)
• add test validation for manually specifying a function to test input

Changes

• assert_error will now fail with error if the error it yielded was not captured and execution attempted to continue
• initial project templates use content_by_lua_block (Contributed by ryanford 674)
• each_page method on paginators no longer allocates a coroutine, a plain function iterator is used
• attempting to preload an object that isn’t a class will throw an error
• attempting to use an invalid order with OrderedPaginator will throw an error
• measure_performance now works even when outside of nginx when reporting query time
• (lapis.html) classnames ignores empty strings and will return first argument directly if passed a string
• (lapis.logging) query log function can now take a prefix and duration
• Removed undocumented locals action render option

Fixes

• Fix bug where internal shell_escape function would strip ' characters
• Returning { json = false } in action render will actually render false as json instead of skipping json render

Documentation

• Started rewriting how options tables are described in the documentation. Uses a grid layout with collapsing examples.
• Many parts of Models documentation have been rewritten for clarity
• Remove outdated references to fields that are deprecated/removed (eg. cmd_url)
• Add documentation for the timestamp option for model\update
• Updated colors of site to be blue
