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
- Removes backward compatibility
for legacy end points `/models` & `/routes`
- Removes `legacyExplorer` flag which
enabled these routes
- Update related tests & tests using the
legacyExplorer flag
- `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`.
Setting legacyExplorer to false in the loopback config will disable
the routes /routes and /models made available in loopback.rest.
The deprecate module has been added to the project with a reference
added for the legacyExplorer option as it is no longer required by
loopback-explorer. Tests added to validate functionality of disabled
and enabled legacy explorer routes.
The new location allows developer to use the following identifiers
when loading the middleware using the new declarative style:
app.middlewareFromConfig(
require('loopback/server/middleware/rest'),
{ phase: 'routes' });
app.middlewareFromConfig(
require('loopback/server/middleware/url-not-found'),
{ phase: 'final' });
