ZPT-JS change log

0.39.0 7 May 2020

• Update command improved: support of array and object operations added using a new configuration option (dictionaryActions).
• Partial reactive support added: only supports change of properties directly in dictionary (not includes nested objects).

0.38.2 25 Feb 2020

• Some errors about non declared variables fixed.

0.38.1 8 Aug 2019

• Bug fixed: problem with npm solved.

0.38.0 8 Aug 2019

• New configuration option added: goToURLHash. It is a boolean value (default to true the first execution of ZPT, the rest executions are default to false). If it is true ZPT-JS updates the location.href to the current URL hash. This is needed because normal behaviour does not work, ids generated by ZPT-JS are not available when the browser try to use the URL hash.

0.37.1 8 Aug 2019

• Bug fixed: an error occurs when strict mode is set to true and a var is defined using tal:define.

0.37.0 6 Aug 2019

• Removed jquery dependency in non dev.
• Jquery expressions replaced by query expressions.
• Bug fixed: jsdom dependency added.
• Added support to run tests using the console:
  • npm run testBrowser // Run the related to browser tests
  • npm run testNode // Run the related to node.js tests
  • npm run test // Run all tests

0.36.1 30 Jul 2019

• Dependencies updated.
• Replaced node-jsdom dependency by jsdom due it is no longer maintained (install of ZPT-JS failed using some recent versions of node).

0.36.0 23 Jul 2019

• Added new command: update.
• Added options.updatedDictionary (object) to set the list of properties to bind.

0.35.0 4 Jun 2019

• Added new tag: data-declare. It declares a list of items, each item is a variable name, a variable type (optional) and a default value expression (optional too). Optionally a 'required' suffix can be added. A strict mode is set to true inside the node with this attribute.
• Added some methods to context:
  • setStrictMode( strictMode ). Set the value of strictMode (default value is false). If it is set to true all variables must be declared; if ZPT-JS finds a non declared variable in an expression an error occurs.
  • isStrictMode(). Get the value of strictMode.
• Variable expression must match a regular expression. It is defined by zpt.context.getConf().variableNameRE and it is /^[A-Za-z0-9_/-]+$/ by default.
• errorFunction method of Context now is invoked when any error occurs except if the error is related to async preloading (in this case the asyncError method is invoked).
• Added a prefix to private vars to avoid name collision: '_'. The renamed vars are:
  • onErrorVarName: _on-error
  • onErrorStructureVarName: _on-error-structure
  • i18nDomainVarName: _i18nDomain
  • i18nLanguageVarName: _i18nLanguage
  • externalMacroUrlVarName: _externalMacroUrl
  • strictModeVarName: _strictMode
  • declaredVarsVarName: _declaredVars
  • repeatVarName: _repeat

0.34.0 23 May 2019

• Now exists expression returns true when the path expressions following its expression returns a value and it is not undefined. It is false when the path expression cannot locate an object or if it evaluates to undefined.
• Some exports added:
  • exports.I18nBundle
  • exports.expressionBuilder
  • exports.evaluateHelper
  • exports.ExpressionTokenizer
• Name of tags simplified. The new name of attributes are:
  • talCondition: data-condition

  • talAttributes: data-attributes
  • talContent: data-content
  • talDefine: data-define
  • talOmitTag: data-omit-tag

0.29.0 21 Apr 2019

• Save every scope into a cache, set an id to it and put it in HTML using a data-tscope tag to make it easy to re-render.

0.28.0 20 Dec 2018

• Added setErrorFunction method to context. It manages initialization errors (trying to load external files like external template files or i18n files).
