Deprecate `Change.handleError`, it was used inconsistenly for a subset
of possible errors only. Rework all `Change` methods to always report
all errors to the caller via the callback.
Rework `PersistedModel` to report change-tracking errors via the
existing method `PersistedModel.handleChangeError`. This method
can be customized on a per-model basis to provide different error
handling.
The default implementation emits `error` event on the model class,
users can attach an event listener that can provide a custom error
handler.
NOTE: Unhandled `error` events crash the application by default.
Refactor the core implementation of current context from
server/middleware/context.js into server/current-context.js.
Expose new public API:
- loopback.runInContext
- loopback.createContext
Use the recently added context property `ctx.instance` to improve
the accuracy of the algorithm detecting whether a single or
multiple models were deleted.
Modify `Change.diff()` to include current data revision in each
delta reported back. The current data revision is stored in
`delta.prev`.
Modify `PersistedModel.bulkUpdate()` to check that the current data
revision matches `delta.prev` and report a conflict if a third party
has modified the database under our hands.
Fix `Change` implementation and tests so that they are no longer
attempting to create instances with duplicate ids.
(This used to work because the memory connector was silently
converting such requests to updateOrCreate/findOrCreate.)
This commit adds the ability for the developer to use a custom token generator function for the user.verify(...) method. By default, the system will still use the crypto.randomBytes() method if no option is provided.
Add tests covering typical replication scenarios that happen
in the setup where multiple clients are synchronizing changes
against a single server (database).
Rework the Change model to merge changes made within the same
Checkpoint.
Rework `replicate()` to run multiple iteration until there were no
changes replicated. This ensures that the target model is left in
a clean state with no pending changes associated with the latest
(current) checkpoint.
