0.1.0 (2024-10-09)

Breaking Changes

  • Require minimum Elixir v1.14.0
  • Require minimum :mdex v0.2.0
  • Removed config :skip_boot? in favor of :mode which can be :live, :testing, and :manual (defaults to :live) - the major difference between then is that live loads all modules and broadcasts all messages, testing only does that when it makes sense for tests (for example it does reload modules on fixtures), and manual does pretty much nothing, it's useful to seed data or to test specific scenarios where you need total control over Beacon.Loader

Enhancements

Fixes

  • Remove unnecessary :plug_cowboy dependency
  • [Heroicons] Namespace the vendorized module as Beacon.Heroicons to avoid conflicts

Documentation

  • Added "Testing" recipe to demonstrate usage of Beacon.Test

  • Require minimum Gettext v0.26 to use the new backend module
  • Default :sort option value in Content.list_pages/2 changed from :title to :path

Fixes

  • [Components] Bring back the .icon (heroicon) component using https://hex.pm/packages/heroicons instead of a Tailwind plugin that depends on the unavailable fs API
  • [Media Library] Guard against invalid values for :sort option in MediaLibrary.list_assets/2
  • [Content] Guard against invalid values for :sort option in Content.list_layouts/2
  • [Content] Guard against invalid values for :sort option in Content.list_pages/2
  • [HEEx Decoder] Handle attr values with nil values, for example the defer in script tags

Documentation

  • Updated Heroicons recipes to reflect changes on configuration and naming

0.1.0-rc.1 (2024-08-27)

Enhancements

  • Added Shared Event Handlers which are global event handlers shared among all pages. That's a simple model to work with where a layout, component, or multiple pages may share the same event handler, for example a newsletter subscription form in a component called in a layout doesn't need to duplicate the same event handler in all pages.

Breaking Changes

  • Removed Page Event Handlers in favor of Shared Event Handlers. With Shared Event Handlers, it doesn't make sense to have page event handlers unless overriding becomes a necessity. The data is automatically migrated in a best-effort way, duplicated event handler names (from multiple pages) are consolidated into a single shared event handler. See the migration V002 for more info.
  • Removed "page event handlers" in Content API in favor of "event handlers" (removed the prefix page), for example: update_event_handler_for_page -> create_event_handler and change_page_event_handler -> change_event_handler.

Fixes

  • Display parsed page title on live renders
