@@ -20,38 +20,6 @@ A number of backward incompatible changes are planned. These changes are individually small, but together should result in a large improvement in usability. -### cowboy_req - -The interface of `cowboy_req` will be largely changed. The -number one complaint about Cowboy today is that you have -to keep track of the Req whenever you do anything. The new -interface will minimize that. - -All functions will return a single term, excluding the body -reading functions `body/{1,2}`, `body_qs/{1,2}`, `part/{1,2}`, -`part_body/{1,2}`. - -Of the functions returning a single term, some of them will -return a Req object. This includes the functions that already -return Req: `compact/1`, `delete_resp_header/2`, `set_meta/3`, -`set_resp_body/2`, `set_resp_body_fun/{2,3}`, `set_resp_cookie/4`, -`set_resp_header/3`, and adds the `chunked_reply/{2,3}` and -`reply/{2,3,4}` functions to the list. - -Of note is that this will allow chaining all the response -functions if that's what you fancy. - -The `parse_header/{2,3}` function will now only return the -parsed header value, and crash on error. It will also not -cache the parsed value anymore, except for headers that Cowboy -requires, like the connection header. - -It is unsure what will become of the `qs_val`, `qs_vals`, -`cookie` and `cookies` functions. The main idea at this point -is to replace them with a `parse_qs/2` and `parse_cookies/2` -that would return the parsed list, and let the user decide -how to access it. - ### init/terminate unification The first argument of the `init/3` function is too rarely used. |
