Rodauth 2.15.0 Released

[jeremy...@gmail.com]

Rodauth 2.15.0 has been released!

= New Features

* An internal_request feature has been added.  This feature allows

  for interacting with Rodauth by calling methods, instead of having

  to use a website or JSON API.  This feature is designed primarily

  for administrative use, so that administrators can create accounts,

  change passwords or logins for accounts, and handle similar actions

  without the user of the account being involved.

  For example, assuming you've loaded the change_password and

  internal_request features, and that your Roda class that

  is loading Rodauth is named App, you can change the password

  for the account with id 1 using:

    App.rodauth.change_password(account_id: 1, password: 'foobar')

  The reason the feature is named internal_request is that these

  methods are implemented by submitting a request internally, that is

  processed almost exactly the same way as Rodauth would process a

  normal request.

  See the internal_request feature documentation for details on which

  internal request methods are available and the options they take.

* A path_class_methods feature has been added, that allows for calling

  *_path and *_url as class methods.  If you would like to call the

  *_url methods as class methods, make sure to use the base_url

  configuration method to set the base URL so that it does not require

  request-specific information.

* Rodauth::Auth classes now have a configuration_name method that

  returns the configuration name associated with the class. They also

  have a configuration method that returns the configuration

  associated with the class.

* Rodauth::Feature now supports an internal_request_method method for

  specifying which methods are supported as internal request methods.

= Other Improvements

* The default base_url configuration method will now use the domain

  method to get the domain to use, instead of getting the domain

  information directly from the request environment.

Thanks,

Jeremy
