vibe.d 0.7.18 release

Header image
Tue, 26 Nov 2013The new release adds support for DMD 2.064 and contains an impressive number of almost 90 additions and bug fixes. Some notable improvements are a better serialization system, reworked WebSocket support, native MongoDB query sorting support and vastly improved stability of the HTTP client and other parts of the system.

Features and improvements

  • Compiles using DMD 2.064 (and DMD 2.063.2)
  • Added vibe.data.serialization with support for annotations to control serialization (replaces/extends the serialization code in vibe.data.json and vibe.data.bson)
  • Added range based allocation free (de-)serialization for JSON strings and more efficient BSON serialization
  • Added File.isOpen
  • Added a ConnectionStream interface from which TCPConnection and TaskPipe now derive
  • Added BsonDate.fromStdTime and improve documentation to avoid time zone related bugs
  • Added a TaskMutex.this(Object) constructor to be able to use them as object monitors
  • Added a non-blocking (infinitely buffering) mode for TaskPipe
  • Added (de)serialization support for AAs with string serializable key types (with toString/fromString methods) (by Daniel Davidson) - pull #333
  • Added (de)serialization support for scalar types as associative array keys
  • Added setLogFormat as a more flexible replacement for setPlainLogging
  • Added MongoCollection.aggregate() (by Jack Applegame) - pull #348
  • Added WebSocket.request to enable access to the original HTTP request and add scoped web socket callbacks for avoiding GC allocations
  • Added HTTPServerRequest.clientAddress to get the full remote address including the port - issue #357
  • Added vibe.stream.wrapper.ProxyStream to enable dynamically switching the underlying stream
  • Added vibe.stream.wrapper.StreamInputRange to provide a buffered input range interface for an InputStream
  • Added vibe.stream.wrapper.ConnectionProxyStream that allows wrapping a ConnectionStream along with a Stream to allow forwarding connection specific functionality together with a wrapped stream
  • Added URL based overloads for HTTPServerResponse.redirect and staticRedirect
  • Added RedisClient.hset (by Martin Mauchauffée aka moechofe) - pull #386
  • Added a WebSockets example project
  • Added MongoCursor.sort to allow sorted queries using the same syntax as other MongoDB drivers (by Jack Applegame) - pull #353
  • Added random number generators suited for cryptographic applications, which is now used for session ID generation (by Ilya Shipunov) - pull #352, pull #364, issue #350
  • Added parameter and return value modifier user attributes for the REST interface generator and refactor meta programming facilities (by Михаил Страшун aka Dicebot) - pull #340, pull #344, pull #349
  • Added vibe.stream.operations.pipeRealtime for piping stream data with a defined maximum latency
  • OutgoingWebSocketMessage is now automatically finalized
  • HTTPServerResponse.switchProtocol now returns a ConnectionStream to allow controlling the underlying TCP connection
  • HTTPServerResponse.startSession now sets the "HttpOnly" attribute by default to better prevent session theft (by Ilya Shipunov) - issue #368, pull #373
  • HTTPServerResponse.startSession now automatically sets the "Secure" attribute by default when a HTTPS connection was used to initiate the session - issue #368
  • Implemented Scalate whitespace stripping syntax for Diet templates (by Jack Applegame) - pull #362
  • htmlAttribEscape and friends now also escape single quotes (') - issue #377
  • vibe.stream.operations.readAll() now preallocates if possible
  • Optimized HTML escaping performance (by Martin Nowak) - pull #327
  • Adjusted naming of Bson.Type and Json.Type members for naming conventions
  • render!() for rendering Diet templates is assumed to be safe starting with DMD 2.064
  • Improved Json usability by enabling ~= and some more use cases for ~
  • Added a workaround for excessive compile times for large static arrays (by Martin Nowak) - pull #341
  • Improved the HTTP reverse proxy by handling HEAD requests correctly, avoiding GC allocations and optionally disabling transfer compression
  • HashMap now moves elements when resizing instead of copying
  • Added a new mode for parseRFC5322Header that outputs multiple fields with the same value as separate fields instead of concatenating them as per RFC 822 and use the new behavior for the HTTP server - issue #380
  • ThreadedFileStream now uses yield() to avoid stalling the event loop
  • Improved the performance of yield() by using a singly linked list instead of a dynamic array to store yielded tasks (incl. bugfix by Martin Nowak, see pull #402 and issue #401)

Bug fixes

  • Fixed wrongly triggering assertions on Windows when INVALID_SOCKET is returned

  • Fixed an exception when disconnecting HTTP client connections where the remote has already disconnected
  • Fixed vibe.core.args.getOption to return true when an option was found (by Martin Nowak) - pull #331
