Slim 3 RC2

We have now released the second release candidate of Slim 3 following significant testing of RC1. This release mostly fixes a number of bugs.

BC breaks in 3.0.0-RC2:

These are the BC breaks since RC1:

• #1550 - The MiddlewareTrait’s addMiddleware() method is now protected. Please use the add() method.
• #1559 - Request::getIp() has been removed. Please use middleware such as rka-ip-address-middleware instead.
• #1570 - Inspection of X-Forwarded-Proto and X-Forwarded-Host headers in Uri have been removed. Please use middleware such as rka-scheme-and-host-detection-middleware instead.

New features in 3.0.0-RC2:

• #1509 - Slim 3’s error handlers now only show exception information if you enable the displayErrorDetails setting.
• #1552 - The router now has a new method called internalPathFor() for use with subRequest().
• We have adopted Glenn Eggleton’s’ PHP-View component for rendering using PHP view scripts.

Getting started

To get started, you can follow the installation instructions or use Rob Allen’s skeleton application.

Please test!

We would appreciate it if you could test this release candidate and report all issues that you find. We are hoping that this is the final release candidate and that 3.0 final will be released next week. Note though, that as this is a release candidate, we do not promise that there will be no BC breaks until 3.0 final is released.
