This release is a small incremental update over previous release.

Major improvements are focused on decreasing frontend overhead:

  • added possibility to disable Web Components support (with all related features) if it is not needed
  • added asynchronous interface for translations (translations will only be loaded when actually used), but under the hood they are synchronous till 6.x to avoid BC break

Small but handy improvements done for CSS/JS minifiers, important fixes for TinyMCE editor and Web Components polyfill (not upstreamed yet).

On backend side there is improved code coverage (96%+ for core directory, 66%+ for system in general).
Added support for native server-side prepared statements in database interfaces in addition to already present client-side placeholders.

Last thing worth mentioning is support for upcoming PHP 7.1.

Security fixes:

  • None

New components:

  • None

New features:

  • Added support for server-side prepared statements
  • cs.Language.ready() method added, will be used in upcoming asynchronous translations loading, returns Promise
  • cs.Polymer.behaviors.Language behavior is now ready for cs.Language being asynchronous
  • Added optimization option to disable Web Components usage, only available for advanced users (Administration > General > System > Simple mode of administration == Off)
  • All components and system ported to asynchronous translations interface on frontend
  • CSS minified improvements:
    • added support for @import url(...) in addition to @import ...
    • added support for CSS imports with media queries
  • JS minified improvement:
    • added support to ES2015 template strings (minifier does nothing in this case to avoid breaking good code)

Updates:

Fixes and small improvements:

  • System:

    • Update APCu version for Travis CI
    • Add PHP 7.1 in Travis CI and make it mandatory for test to succeed
    • cs.Language implementation rewritten (more code, but require less brain power to read)
    • cs.Polymer.behaviors.Language implementation rewritten (more code, but require less brain power to read)
    • Polymer-related files moved into own directory
    • Use single quotes where possible
    • Small fixes and docs update for cs\CRUD_helpers trait

    • Unnecessary condition removed in cs\Page class

  • None

Dropped backward compatibility:

  • None
