Warning: There are several things in this release that are potentially BREAKING

Whether it is breaking for your case depends on how you use it. For most users I expect little to no impact (for example there was no impact in these changes for backlog.io).

This is a major rewrite of the internals. In addition to many new features, the default behaviour has changed to minimise the need for annotations. The most common cases should require no annotations.

The changes are:

• if you want to tweak the bindings you must now use the new annotations (such as @PathParam, @PathParams, @BodyRequest etc).
  • The old way of passing in your own bindings into the bind function is no longer supported.
    • You can alternatively use the new bindManually function but you must provide all the bindings in this case. No inference will be done if you call this function.
      • Additionally the binding classes has changed substantially in this release
• the default behaviour for inferring the bindings between the request and the handler parameters has changed
  • handler parameters that are not simple types are now by default assumed to come from the body, not request path parameters.
    • this includes Map, List and any of your classes (that are not registered as custom objects).
    • If no annotation is added to the parameter then shelf_bind will first look at the request content-type
      • if none is present it defaults to JSON
      • if the content-type is set and is FORM or JSON then it will be handled as that type
      • if it is any other content-type then a 400 response will be returned
  • If you map multiple path parameters into your own custom class you now need to use the @PathParams annotation
• there is now automatic conversion of snake case (e.g. account_id) in query parameters to camel case (e.g accountId) handler parameters
• you can now bind to header fields using the new @HeaderParam annotation
• there is automatic conversion of kebab case (e.g. content-type) in header fields to camel case (e.g. contentType) handler parameters
