Notable side-effects:
- loopback no longer exports "caller" and "arguments" properties
- kv-memory connector is now properly added to the connector registry
- the file "test/support.js" was finally removed
Fix the definition of "data" argument to
{ type: 'object', model: modelName, ... }
That way strong-remoting passed the request body directly to the model
method (does not create a new model instance), but the swagger will
still provide correct schema for these arguments.
This fixes a bug where upsert in relation methods was adding default
property values to request payload.
Prevent apps from crashing when using `Model.nestRemoting` without
`{ hooks: false }` option.
Note that it is not possible to reproduce this bug using our current
Mocha test suite, because other tests modify the global state in such
way that the bug no longer occurs.
This patch fixes the method Model.getApp() that started to report
the following error after b61fae5 was landed:
assert.js:88

1) Add integration tests running change replication over REST to verify
that access control at model level is correctly enforced.
2) Implement a new access type "REPLICATE" that allows principals
to create new checkpoints, even though they don't have full WRITE
access to the model. Together with the "READ" permission, these
two types allow principals to replicate (pull) changes from the server.
Note that anybody having "WRITE" access type is automatically
granted "REPLICATE" type too.
3) Add a new model option "enableRemoteReplication" that exposes
replication methods via strong remoting, but does not configure
change rectification. This option should be used the clients
when setting up Remote models attached to the server via the remoting
connector.
- `loopback.registry` is now a true global registry
- `app.registry` is unique per app object
- `Model.registry` is set when a Model is created using any registry method
- `loopback.localRegistry` and `loopback({localRegistry: true})` when set to `true` this will create a `Registry` per `Application`. It defaults to `false`.
Modify the files to export a model factory function accepting
a `registry` argument. This is a preparation step for per-application
models - see #1212.
Enhance the error objects with a `code` property containing
a machine-readable string code describing the error, for example
INVALID_TOKEN or USER_NOT_FOUND.
Also improve 404 error messages to include the model name.
Allow the developer to pass custom `remoting` options via Model
settings, e.g.
PersistedModel.extend(
'MyModel',
{ name: String },
{
remoting: { normalizeHttpPath: true }
});
Also add `options` arg to `app.handler`, this object is passed directly
to strong-remoting handler.
