Removed the language of oppression and violence and replaced it with more neutral language.
Note that problematic words in the code have to remain in the docs until the code changes.
Fixes#379.
LinkCollector is now an interface. The actual implementation has been moved to DefaultLinkCollector. RepositoryRestConfigurer now has a customizeLinkCollector(…) callback method to tweak or even completely replace the LinkCollector instance.
Fixes#2042.
Introduced RepositoryRestConfigurer.customizeAuditableBeanWrapperFactory(…) so that implementations can customize the default instance provided by RepositoryRestMvcConfiguration.
Fixes#2040.
Properly initialize the MongoMappingContext in unit tests when using special identifier types. Explicitly add javax.annotation as dependency in shop tests.
In AggregateReferenceDeserializerModifier we now look up the original property name on the Jackson metadata before trying to resolve the property target type. We also explicitly guard against null values returned from that lookup and opt out of the customization in those cases.
We now consider all registered PersistentEntity instances and try to detect repository metadata for them. A case we didn't cover before was that a repository was declared for an aggregate super type but the actual child aggregate class didn't have a dedicated repository declared. While this is a perfectly valid scenario, the mapping information was broken as it fell back on the plain domain type information and produced paths and relation names derived from that, even if there's a super type repository available.
Thus, solely traversing the aggregate types we have repositories registered for is not enough. We now traverse all known PersistentEntity types and also register repository metadata for all types that are assignable to a known domain type. The latter is actually implemented in Spring Data Commons' Repositories via spring-projects/spring-data-commons#2406.
Removed unnecessary CustomPostForm.js from HAL Explorer. HAL Explorer natively supports Spring Profiles. Update link in README.adoc to the HAL Explorer section in the reference docs Correct typo and incorrect description in HAL-Explorer section.
Fixes#2005.
We now also implement MatchableHandlerMapping.getPatternParser() to expose the PathPatternParser we use. This is needed to detect that DelegatingHandlerMapping uses a PathPatternParser from the outside as the Spring MVC request processing pipeline treats those HandlerMappings in a special way. This is especially important in the context of spring-projects/spring-framework#26814 as that makes the HM implementations work properly in CORS preflight requests.
When used with Spring Security in place, CORS preflight requests are inspected through the HandlerMappingIntrospector, that looks up the CORS configuration for the handler to serve the actual request. That lookup previously failed as Spring MVC was unable to detect that Spring Data REST's DelegatingHandlerMapping works with a PathPatternParser and didn't properly set up the processing pipeline to eventually end up in an invalid state, produce an exception that caused the handler method lookup to fail and cause Spring Security to fail with a 403, claiming the request was invalid.
Fixes#2007.
4b36f79 introduced a regression by consuming registered RepositoryRestConfigurer instances via ApplicationContext.getBeansOfType(…).values() which, unlike the previous consumption via a List<RRC> in an @Bean method, is losing the declared order of the RRC instances as ….getBeansOfType() is a Map.
We now rather use an ObjectProvider and its ….orderedStream() method to consume the registered instances ordered properly.
Fixes#1995.
Introduce AggregateReferenceResolvingModule to be registered with the default ObjectMapper instance that will allow to materialize aggregate instances from URIs for incoming web requests. We do not apply this for aggregate roots themselves as they're already handled by the AssociationUriResolvingDeserializerModifier.
Nested entities that contain a reference to an aggregate root get a link to that attached to their representation. Previously, the creation of those links assumed that the reference is a materialized instance of the remote aggregate. That's now altered to be able to deal with associations, use identifiers directly or materialize to an intermediate aggregate instance to potentially use a custom lookup.
