spry 8.2.0

Next-generation Dart server framework. Build modern servers and deploy them to the runtime you prefer.

8.2.0

Migration guide: https://spry.medz.dev/migration

Highlights

Spry 8.2.0 reshapes generated output around a clearer target layout and adds new Dart-native deployment targets.

This release renames the Dart runtime target to BuildTarget.vm, moves generated Dart source into .spry/src/, renames JS runtime entrypoints to their deploy-facing filenames, adds exe / aot / jit / kernel targets, and removes the synthetic wildcard-param alias for named catch-all routes.

Breaking Changes

• Renamed BuildTarget.dart to BuildTarget.vm by @medz in #170.
• Generated Dart source files now live under .spry/src/ instead of the .spry/ root, and JS target entrypoints now use deploy-facing filenames such as .spry/node/index.cjs and .spry/cloudflare/index.js by @medz in #170.
• Removed RouteParams.wildcard / event.params.wildcard for named catch-all routes. Read the declared param directly, for example event.params.get('slug') by @medz in dab62e9.

What's New

Build and deployment

• Added Dart-native deployment targets for executable, AOT snapshot, JIT snapshot, and kernel snapshot output via BuildTarget.exe, BuildTarget.aot, BuildTarget.jit, and BuildTarget.kernel by @medz in #170.
• Reworked generated output layout and deployment documentation across Node, Bun, Deno, Cloudflare, Vercel, and Netlify to match the new target-specific entrypoints by @medz in #170.
• Synced public/ assets into Dart compiled output workspaces so native builds can be deployed directly by @medz in #170.

Runtime performance

• Cached parsed request URLs and query params per request to remove duplicate parsing in the main request pipeline by @medz in #167.
• Simplified the static asset serving pipeline and unified public-asset resolution across JS and IO runtimes by @medz in #169.

Routing runtime

• Removed generated _withWildcardParam wrappers and the per-request Event / RouteParams rebuild they performed for named catch-all routes by @medz in dab62e9.

Migration note

• Rename BuildTarget.dart to BuildTarget.vm in spry.config.dart.
• If your tooling reads generated output directly, update paths from .spry/*.dart to .spry/src/*.dart, and switch JS entrypoints to the new filenames (node/index.cjs, bun/index.js, deno/index.js, cloudflare/index.js).
• Replace event.params.wildcard with event.params.get('<name>'), where <name> is the identifier declared in [...name].dart.

8.1.0

Migration guide: Not required.

Highlights

Spry 8.1.0 expands runtime coverage and adds first-class route-level WebSocket handling without changing the filesystem routing model.

This release adds Deno and Netlify targets, exposes public osrv runtime entrypoints for target-aware integrations, upgrades Spry to osrv 0.6.x, and introduces the new event.ws API for WebSocket upgrades inside normal route handlers.

Breaking Changes

• None.

What's New

Runtime targets

• Added a Deno target and deploy documentation by @medz in #164.
• Added a Netlify target, example project, and deploy documentation by @medz in #163.

Runtime integration

• Added public package:spry/osrv.dart runtime entrypoints, including target-specific exports for Dart, Node, Bun, Cloudflare, Deno, Vercel, and Netlify by @medz in #162.
• Upgraded Spry to osrv 0.6.x as part of the Deno runtime work by @medz in #164.

WebSocket support

• Added event.ws with runtime support checks, upgrade-request detection, requested protocol access, and upgrade(...) for route-level WebSocket handling by @medz in #165.
• Added WebSocket documentation covering handshake semantics, session boundaries, and runtime support expectations by @medz in #165.

Migration note

• No migration is required for existing applications. To adopt WebSockets, import package:spry/websocket.dart and use event.ws inside a normal route handler.
• If you integrate directly with osrv, prefer the new public exports under package:spry/osrv.dart and its target-specific entrypoints.

8.0.0

Migration guide: https://spry.medz.dev/migration

Highlights

Spry 8.0.0 aligns the framework with the latest upstream HTTP and routing foundations.

This release upgrades Spry to the Fetch-style Request / Response model from ht 0.3.x and osrv 0.4.x, adopts the roux 0.5.x route syntax changes, and expands filesystem routing with more expressive segment patterns.

Breaking Changes

• Spry now follows the upstream Fetch-style Request / Response construction model by @medz in #157.
• Manual string-path remainder matches must now use /** instead of /* when constructing Spry, MiddlewareRoute, or ErrorRoute by @medz in #155.

Request / Response construction

If you construct exported Request / Response values directly, migrate to the new init-object form:

• Request(uri, method: 'GET') -> Request(uri, RequestInit(method: HttpMethod.get))
• Response(status: 404, headers: ..., body: ...) -> Response(body, ResponseInit(status: 404, headers: ...))

What's New

HTTP foundation upgrade

• Upgraded to ht 0.3.1 and osrv 0.4.x by @medz in #157.
• Re-exported RequestInit and ResponseInit from package:spry/spry.dart and package:spry/app.dart by @medz in #157.

Routing upgrade

• Upgraded to roux 0.5.x by @medz in #155.
• Kept Spry catch-all scopes aligned with the new ** remainder syntax by @medz in #155.
• Added richer filesystem route syntax for embedded params, regex params, optional params, repeated params, and single-segment wildcards by @medz in #155.

Examples and docs

• Split examples by target runtime and added a knex_dart example project by @medz in 13fed0d.
• Refreshed migration docs and release-facing website copy for the v8 release by @medz in #159.
• Upgraded project dependencies by @medz in #160.

Migration note

• Replace manual /* route strings with /** in Spry, MiddlewareRoute, and ErrorRoute, then re-run your route matching tests after upgrading to roux 0.5.x.
• If you construct exported Request / Response types directly, migrate to the new Fetch-style init objects. For example: Request(uri, method: 'GET') -> Request(uri, RequestInit(method: HttpMethod.get)) Response(status: 404, headers: ..., body: ...) -> Response(body, ResponseInit(status: 404, headers: ...)) Response.text(...) / Response.empty(...) -> Response(..., ResponseInit(...))
