v0.18.0

NEW: Live reload in development

This release adds live live Reload with DOM Morphing through the Mata gem (which works with any rack app—that includes typical Rails apps too!)

Simply add config.live_reload = true to your Perron initializer and brrrrrr… 👨‍💻 🚗 💨

Also common AR-like syntax is now available on content resources:

• Content::Article.where(section: :content)
• Content::Article.order(:category) and Content::Article.order(category: :desc)
• scope :getting_started, -> { where(section: :getting_started) }

v0.17.0

Breaking Changes

Root is handled differently going forward.

Before:

# app/controllers/content/pages_controller.rb
class Content::PagesController < ApplicationController
  include Perron::Root  # Concern provided root action
end

After:
The Perron::Root concern has been removed. Instead, explicitly define the root action in your controller:

# app/controllers/content/pages_controller.rb
class Content::PagesController < ApplicationController
  def root
    @resource = Content::Page.root
    
    render :show
  end
end

Migration

• Remove include Perron::Root from your pages controller
• Add the explicit root method shown above
• Ensure you have root to: "content/pages#root" in your config/routes.rb
• Your app/content/pages/root.erb file remains unchanged

Note: New projects using the generator (bin/rails generate content page) will have this code generated automatically.
