alias methods for matching OPTIONS and HEAD requests respectively - The
Response

๐ Bug fixes
- โก๏ธ The README document has been updated to fix a few typos and inconsistencies
- Route params are now properly URL decoded
- 404/405 routes now properly set the appropriate status code automatically
- Silencing the locked response exceptions as the behavior is designed to be transparent/automatic
- ๐ Allow route callables to be an array suitable for
call_user_func()
callable behavior - More proper handling for 404's that also call the 404 error handlers
- ๐ง The
file()
andjson()
methods in theResponse
class no longer override system-configured time processing limits - Now checking if the output buffer is open before attempting to close it
- The methods matched counter (
$methods_matched
) is now much more accurate, not counting methods that shouldn't have been considered matches - ๐ Various PHPdoc inaccuracies and inconsistencies have been fixed

โฌ๏ธ Upgrading
๐ Deprecations
- ๐ Handling 404 and 405 errors with a specially registered route callback is now deprecated. It's now suggested to use Klein's new
onHttpError()
method instead. - Autoloading the library with Composer no longer utilizes the PSR-0 spec. The composer autoloader now uses PSR-4.
Interface Changes
- Some of the route callback params have changed. This will effect any route definitions with callbacks using the more advanced parameters.
- The old params were (in order):
Request $request
Response $response
Service $service
App $app
int $matched
array $methods_matched
- The new params are (in order):
Request $request
Response $response
Service $service
App $app
Klein $klein
RouteCollection $matched
array $methods_matched
- Non-match routes (routes that are wildcard and shouldn't consider as "matches") will no longer be considered as part of the "methods matched" array, since they aren't supposed to be matches in the first place
- This may have implications for users that have created "match-all" OPTIONS method routes, as the OPTIONS method will no longer be considered a match.
- If you'd like to conserve the old match behavior, you can simply mark the route as one that should be counted as a match with
$route->setCountMatch(true)
