Catch all parameter was limited to be used *after* a slash (`/`) on
a path (ie. `/members/*trailing`).
Attempts to use it immediately after the path (ie. `/members*trailing`)
was not properly identified or captured.
This change ensures catch all can be used as globbing, allowing capture
of anything after the matching path.
Closes#12
When adding new nodes into the tree, the lookup mechanism failed
to detect same named parameter was already added to it, raising
an exception.
Example:
tree = Radix::Tree(Symbol).new
tree.add "/members/:id/edit", :member_edit
tree.add "/members/export", :members_export
tree.add "/members/:id/videos", :member_videos # Exception
This fix ensures that comparison is done key by key, even if they
are inserted into the tree in a different order.
Closes#9
Introduce `Radix::VERSION` to be used at runtime by users of the
library for any purpose this will help them (expose them, use
conditional blocks or similar).
Also add spec that checks that defined versions in both `shard.yml`
and `Radix::VERSION` matches to avoid messing up releases.
After Crystal 0.15, compiler will require declare the types used
by instance variables on classes.
This require changes to the usage of `Radix::Tree` by introducing
the type of payload elements it will handle:
# Will only support symbols as payload
tree = Radix::Tree(Symbol).new
tree.add "/", :root
# Error: cannot add node with anything other than Symbol
tree.add "/meaning-of-life", 42
The changes ensure future compatibility with Crystal and also
enforces a more declarative usage of `Radix::Tree`.
If necessary, you can combine multiple types to ensure a tree
can contain all the wide range of payloads you need:
tree = Radix::Tree.new(Foo | Bar | Symbol).new
tree.add "/", :root
tree.add "/foo", foo_instance
This change includes:
- Tree, Node and Result has been updated to require types.
- Node is capable of have optional payload (from defined type).
- Documentation has been updated to reflect this change.
Deal with named parameters under same level (shared) and raise
proper `SharedKeyError` exception.
This is a non-backward compatible change aims to solve result
mapping issues and tree lookup.
Now README covers this under *Caveats* section and offers an
alternative organization of the paths used on the tree.
To avoid potential issues when using `master` instead of a locked
release, bump the version.
Our Radix implementation was literally considering every single
character as candidate for splitting, which caused keys that
contained named parameters markers (`:foo`) to be broken across
nodes:
tree = Radix::Tree.new
tree.add "/", :root
tree.add "/:post", :post
tree.add "/:category/:post", :category_post
# /
# :
# post
# category/:post
This caused incorrect behavior when performing lookup (`Tree#find`)
and failing to detect and map the key name, even when the value
was properly captured:
result = tree.find "/example"
pp result.found? # => false
This change corrects the issue by identifying named parameter marker
and once detected, consider everything until a separator or the end
of the supplied string is reached to be a unique key:
tree = Radix::Tree.new
tree.add "/", :root
tree.add "/:post", :post
tree.add "/:category/:post", :category_post
# /
# :category/:post
# :post
However, due how Radix tree is structured, two named parameters at the
same level might result in problems during lookup phase:
tree = Radix::Tree.new
tree.add "/", :root
tree.add "/:post", :post
tree.add "/:category/:post", :category_post
# /
# :category/:post
# :post
tree.root.sort!
# /
# :post
# :category/:post
result = tree.find "/example"
pp result.found? # => false
pp result.params # => {"post" => "example"}
result = tree.find "/news/first-post"
pp result.found? # => false
pp result.params # => {"post" => "news"}
Causing lookup to fail and values be stored under incorrect keys
for the parameters.
Because of this, a deprecation warning will be shown to allow
users adjust and correct their code prior fully removing it and
raise error (you know, semantic versioning and all that jazz).
This fixes#5 and closes#4
Given a key `/:foo/:bar`, the find mechanism was incorrectly picking
the separator character as part of the key name (`foo/`).
This caused incorrect match between expected name (`foo`) and the
one obtained.
When the key name was extracted from the named parameter, the size
of the returned key was not compensated, given that we move +1 positions
to avoid having ':' as part of the key.
This is now corrected by reducing the key size one shorter to
compensate.
Fixes Issue #2
Extract Radix Tree implementation from `Beryl` project into an
standalone library to facilitate usage by other developers.
- Move `Tree`, `Node` and `Result` into `Radix` namespace
- Clenaup standalone README and describe usage
