All functionality and nearly +all unit tests have been preserved. However, some backwards incompatible +changes to the API have been made. + +Below is a selection of some of the changes (not exhaustive). + +Highlights: + +* Pystache now passes all tests in version 1.0.3 of the `Mustache spec`_. [pvande] +* Removed View class: it is no longer necessary to subclass from View or + from any other class to create a view. +* Replaced Template with Renderer class: template rendering behavior can be + modified via the Renderer constructor or by setting attributes on a Renderer instance. +* Added TemplateSpec class: template rendering can be specified on a per-view + basis by subclassing from TemplateSpec. +* Introduced separation of concerns and removed circular dependencies (e.g. + between Template and View classes, cf. `issue #13`_). +* Unicode now used consistently throughout the rendering process. +* Expanded test coverage: nosetests now runs doctests and ~105 test cases + from the Mustache spec (increasing the number of tests from 56 to ~315). +* Added a rudimentary benchmarking script to gauge performance while refactoring. +* Extensive documentation added (e.g. docstrings). + +Other changes: + +* Added a command-line interface. [vrde] +* The main rendering class now accepts a custom partial loader (e.g. a dictionary) + and a custom escape function. +* Non-ascii characters in str strings are now supported while rendering. +* Added string encoding, file encoding, and errors options for decoding to unicode. +* Removed the output encoding option. +* Removed the use of markupsafe. + +Bug fixes: + +* Context values no longer processed as template strings. [jakearchibald] +* Whitespace surrounding sections is no longer altered, per the spec. [heliodor] +* Zeroes now render correctly when using PyPy. [alex] +* Multline comments now permitted. [fczuardi] +* Extensionless template files are now supported. +* Passing ``**kwargs`` to ``Template()`` no longer modifies the context. +* Passing ``**kwargs`` to ``Template()`` with no context no longer raises an exception. + 0.4.1 (2012-03-25) ------------------ * Added support for Python 2.4.
