What is Serenity Platform

Serenity is a ASP.NET Core / TypeScript application platform which has been built on open source technologies.

It aims to make development easier while reducing maintenance costs by avoiding boiler-plate code, reducing the time spent on repetitive tasks and applying best software design practices.

Who/What This Platform Is For

Serenity is best suited to business applications with many data entry forms, administrative interface of public facing web sites, and mobile application back ends.

This doesn't mean that it can't be used for other types of applications. Some of its features can be helpful for any kind of application.

Change log

6.8.0 (2023-08-14)

Features:

• New Serenity.Pro.OpenIdClient Package which is exclusively available to Business/Enterprise customers, this update introduces the Serenity.Pro.OpenIdClient package, enabling seamless external login via Google, Microsoft, GitHub, and more. The implementation includes robust account link and unlink actions. [StartSharp]
• [WARNING!] To thwart potential XSS attacks via email links, a critical security measure has been implemented. The LoginPage.tsx now incorporates a defensive check to only accept return URLs that begin with a forward slash (/). Our gratitude to Tasfaout Abderrahim for bringing this to our attention. Please apply the check in LoginPage.tsx that looks like if (returnUrl && /^\//.test(returnUrl)) {.
• [BREAKING CHANGE!] The SettingStorage module has undergone modifications to enhance performance and security. The getItem and setItem methods may now return Promises, eliminating synchronous XHR calls. Consequently, similar adjustments extend to the DataGrid's restoreSettings, persistSettings, and getPersistedSettings methods. Users with custom code using these methods must ensure compatibility with the Promise return type (e.g., utilize async operations). Furthermore, a new restoreSettingsFrom method takes precedence over restoreSettings in mixins, derived classes, etc. It's important to note that restoreSettingsFrom does not handle null settings parameters. [BREAKING CHANGE]
• Added .mpp (MS Project), .vsd, .vsdx (Visio) to default extension whitelist
• Set SameSite.Lax for CSRF-TOKEN cookie
• Enhanced initFullHeightGridPage with flex layout and responsive handling instead of trying to calculate grid height from other divs in page
• Adapted pro theme css for new initFullHeightGridPage version
• Added a setHeight option for cases where initFullHeightGridPage is used with another container type like in split master detail sample
• Implemented reCAPTCHA for signup form [StartSharp]
• Restored reCAPTCHA functionality with a special property processor. Need to services.ConfigureSection<RecaptchaSettings>(Configuration); in Startup.cs, and set Recaptcha:SiteKey and Recaptcha:SecretKey in appsettings.json by generating them from https://www.google.com/recaptcha/admin (use v2 ones, not sure newer ones work). Unless they are set, Recaptcha property will be made invisible in the form. See Signup form in StartSharp for an example.
• Enhanced form item handling by clearing category when lacking Category but having Tab attribute
• Also get base row type properties with BasedOnRow attribute
• Introduced IUserClaimCreator interface and its default implementation DefaultUserClaimCreator. You should register it in Startup.cs and use it instead of the static implementation in UserRetrieveService class. If you have any custom claims you can inherit DefaultUserClaimCreator and override AddClaims method then register your class instead of DefaultUserClaimCreator. Replace UserRetrieveService.CreatePrincipal with IUserClaimCreator dependency whereever it is used.
• Applied patch for jquery ui touch events so that grid columns can be dragged in mobile
• New HandleControllerExceptionAttribute that can redirect errors to ValidationError page.
• Generated a more compact and merge friendly version of Texts.ts file.
• Introduced IHasPassword interface that allows to check if user has a password set via IUserDefinition
• Added a LocalTextPrefix property to FormScript and ColumnsScript attribute that may be used to override the local text prefix calculated from form key and namespace
• Updated jsx-dom to 8.0.7
• If reportParams is passed as null, JSON serialize the report instance in HTML report callback url builder
• Set Content-Disposition header for preview as well so save name for the generated pdf will not be Render.pdf always
• Moved password related page / service codes like Forgot/Reset/Change password to Serenity.Extensions to make them easier to update and reduce amount of code in StartSharp/Serene.
• Introduced an IElevationHandler and RequiresElevation attribute so that user will have to enter password again before performing some critical actions.
• Added hidden-xs css rule for compatibility with bs4

Bugfixes:

• Fix sergen code generation errors for form, columns etc. in non-modular projects
• Fix several invalid source links in Demo
• Don't auto fill demo username/pass for activation page
• Possible issue with Postgress in SqlErrorStore while inserting exceptions
• Fix styling for grouping bar when group columns are longer than the width via x-scrolling

6.7.6 (2023-05-24)

Features:

• Abstracted script and css minifier dependencies, so that another minifier can be used instead of NUglify for bundling
• Added experimental esbuild based minifier [StartSharp]
• Updated preact in Serenity.Assets to 10.14.1
• Added /** jsxImportSource jsx-dom */ to files where jsx-dom are used, so that it can understood which library is used without relying on the default in tsconfig.json
• Rewrote EmailClient with ES modules and preact, removed Serenity.Pro.UI package as it was only ever used by EmailClient. [StartSharp]
• Improve look and feel of e-mail client [StartSharp]
• Added a mock IMAP server implementation to EmailClient for demo purposes
• [BREAKING CHANGE] Serenity.Pro.UI package is now obsoleted as it was only used by the old email client. It will not get any new versions and you should remove its reference from your project file.
• Changed default jsxImportSource back to preact in tsconfig.json [StartSharp]
• <environmentVariable name="ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT" value="Development" /> line which was in web.config for development purposes is removed. If you deploy to IIS and did not remove that line in your production site after publishing, you should.

Bugfixes:

• Resolve issue with enum / select editors causing display text to be saved instead of value in dropdown editors [StartSharp]

6.7.5 (2023-05-21)

Features:

• added ExtensionBlacklistInclude, ExtensionBlacklistExclude, ExtensionWhitelistInclude and ExtensionWhitelistExclude that allows including, excluding extensions from defaults without having to write all the extensions again
• update bootstrap icons to 1.10.5
• trigger panelopening, panelopened, panelclosing, panelclosed events on window while a panel is closing / opening

Bugfixes:

• email client now working due to preact not included in appsettings.bundles.json [StartSharp]
• enable System.Drawing.Common 6.0 in linux by adding runtimeconfig.template.json file [StartSharp]
• fix failing source gen tests caused by line endings [StartSharp]

6.7.2 (2023-05-13)

Features:

• Generated API documentation for @serenity-is/corelib and @serenity-is/sleekgrid packages via TypeDoc and made them available at https://serenity.is/docs under Api Reference (TypeScript) section.
• Added jsx-dom integration which is a library similar to React. but which directly creates HTML elements instead of using a VDOM. It offers better compatibility with existing Serenity Widget structure that use jQuery and contains code that modify DOM directly. It will mostly be used in renderContents() method instead of the getTemplate() so that events can be bound at widget creation, and references to elements can be acquired. There is currently no dependency to jsx-dom in @serenity-is/corelib itself but it exposes a jsxDomWidget method than can be used to create a jsx-dom compatible functional component from a widget type, like var StringEditor_ = jsxDomWidget(StringEditor); <StringEditor_ readonly={true} maxlength={50} />.
• Switched to JSX automatic runtime (https://www.typescriptlang.org/tsconfig#jsxImportSource) in StartSharp by setting "jsx": "react-jsx" and "jsxImportSource": "jsx-dom" in tsconfig.json. If you need to use React or Preact etc. in one your .tsx files, you may switch the runtime by adding a pragma comment on top of the file like /** @jsxImportSource react */.
• **/*Page.tsx files are also considered as ESM entry points for esbuild in tsbuild and sergen.
• Adapted membership page codes in StartSharp to use jsx-dom by renaming them first from XYZPage.ts to XYZPage.tsx and using renderContents instead of getTemplate.
• Added useIdPrefix() and Widget.useIdPrefix() methods to make it easier to generate unique ID's based on the Widget's idPrefix in jsx-dom based code similar to ~_ prefix in classic templates.
• findElementWithId method can optionally accept a context parameter that controls where the search is performed. This is useful for detached elements (e.g. not added to document yet) created by jsx-dom to locate cascading etc. elements.
• Replaced toastr with an embedded version rewritten in TypeScript adapted from https://raw.githubusercontent.com/JPeer264/toastr2/master/src/Toastr.ts. This will make it possible to show notifications which failed when toastr.js is not loaded in the page. You may remove toastr.js from appsettings.bundles.json but leave toastr.css for now as it is still required.
• CardViewMixin can accept jsx-dom based card templates in addition to React ones.
• Moved corelib and tsbuild to root packages/ folder from src/Serenity.Scripts/ in Serenity repository.
• Improved globalExternals optimization in tsbuild so that it generates less number of chunks on build.
• Increased test coverage for @serenity-is/corelib/q methods and refactored test files (.spec.ts) to be next to the files (.ts) they have tests for.
• Added async versions of Authorization script methods like Q.Authorization.userDefinitionAsync which should be preffered over sync counterparts where possible.
• IExceptionLogger interface is obsolete! Please log exceptions directly via .NET's ILogger interface and its LogError method. StartSharp users should replace app.UseExceptional() line with app.UseExceptionLogger() in Startup.cs, which also enables implicit logging to StackExchange.Exceptional via InformationalException type.
• Added InformationalException type that will be used to log via ILogger interface to Exceptional
• Updated @serenity-is/sleekgrid to 1.6.0.
• [Breaking Change] parseDate and parseISODateTime functions returns an Invalid Date instance (e.g. its .valueOf() method returns NaN) instead of "false" or "null" as they used to be, which was a wrong decision at time. It was causing invalid dates to be considered equal to empty dates sometimes. Javascript Date constructor also returns a Date instance with NaN value for invalid dates.
• Round calculated width when scale / delta parameters are specified in DataGrid, which is true for latest theme.
• Normalized all the line endings to LF in Serenity, common-features and StartSharp repository via a .gitattributes file.
• Made DefaultRowTypeRegistry use typeSource on every call to the AllRowTypes (#6776) so that if the ITypeSource implementation returns a dynamic list of types, it can pick them.
• Introduced new UI Elements sample pages containing Bootstrap components, Icon classes etc. [StartSharp]
• Removed RuntimeCompilation as Hot Reload does the same thing [StartSharp]

Bugfixes:

• Referencing generic types in generated form type short name assignments which caused problems with Widget<any> in TypeScript
• AutoValidateAntiforgeryIgnoreBearerFilter were logging another message when antiforgery validation failed
• Fix lazy android check in jquery.maskedinput.js introduced a few versions back.

6.7.1 (2023-04-07)

Features:

• Added IUploadFileResponder interface, whose default implementation will only send text/plain, application/pdf, and ones whose mime type starting with image/ as inline, and rest as application/octet-stream with content-disposition attachment for security purposes. Please use it in your FilePage.cs Read method. See the latest FilePage.cs in StartSharp/Serene repository.
• [BREAKING CHANGE] moving ExtensionBlacklist to UploadSettings from IUploadOptions. Added an ExtensionWhitelist that only allows usual extensions by default (.3gp;.7z;.ai;.avi;.bmp;.csv;.doc;.docx;.eps;.jpg;.jpeg;.json;.gif;.gz;.ico;.mpg;.mpeg;.mp3;.mp4;.mkv;.pdf;.png;.ppt;.pptx;.psd;.rar;.rtf;.svg;.tif;.tiff;.txt;.wav;.webm;.webp;.xls;.xlsx;.xml;.xps;.zip;). You'll need to override them in appsettings.json if you need more extensions (UploadSettings:ExtensionWhitelist, UploadSettings:ExtensionBlacklist)
• updated missing translations in Serene/StartSharp/Serenity
• use ASP.NET Core's FileExtensionContentTypeProvider instead of manually listing known mime types

6.7.0 (2023-04-06)

Features:

• [WARNING!] This release focuses on addressing potential security issues that were recently discovered by Fabian Densborn from SEC Consult. Serene/StartSharp users must either create a new project from the 6.7.0+ template or manually apply the relevant changes from this commit to their existing applications after updating Serenity packages to 6.7.0+: https://github.com/serenity-is/serene/commit/6dce8162f4382badd429a9f0f1470acb64e8c4fd

• Serenity.is would like to express gratitude to Fabian Densborn for his discovery, analysis, and coordination, as well as the SEC Consult Vulnerability Lab (https://www.sec-consult.com) for responsibly reporting the identified issues and collaborating with us as we addressed them.

• Added the option to use ClamAV (https://www.clamav.net/) as an antivirus scanner for temporary uploads. To enable it, add services.ConfigureSection<Serenity.Extensions.ClamAVSettings>(Configuration); and services.AddSingleton<IUploadAVScanner, Serenity.Extensions.ClamAVUploadScanner>(); to your Startup.cs after upgrading to Serenity/Serenity.Extensions 6.7.0+. Consult ClamAV documentation on how to install it on your platform. This feature will be enabled by default once these changes have been made in Startup.cs. If you want to disable it for development purposes, set ClamAV:Enabled to false in your appsettings.Development.json (not recommended for production!).

• Added extensionless and .htm/.html to the upload file extensions blacklist by default. An attacker can include malicious scripts in such an HTML file, send an administrative user a link to that file via email, and if the administrative user is already logged in to the site while clicking the link, the script can call services, perform actions, etc. on behalf of the user as the cookies are sent by the browser.

• Ensured that the Forgot password page does not reveal information to identify whether a user with the entered email exists.

• Ensured that reset password tokens can only be used once. They already expired in 3 hours, but if an attacker could see the link within that time frame (e.g., by eavesdropping), they could use it to change the password again.

6.6.6 (2023-04-04)

Bugfixes:

• Fix empty text can't be used as DisplayName in forms/columns

6.6.5 (2023-04-04)

Bugfixes:

• [BREAKING CHANGE] removing legacy AsyncLookupEditor from corelib as it is getting mixed up with AsyncLookupEditorAttribute in server side which is just a LookupEditor with Async = true

6.6.4 (2023-04-03)

Features:

• Added default support for new languages including Arabic, Bangla, Czech, French, Hindi, Indonesian, Japanese, Korean, Dutch, Romanian, Swedish, Chinese Traditional. Used machine translation for all these languages in addition to the existing languages. As these may not always be the best possible translations, any pull requests with improved texts are welcome.
• Used embedded resources under texts/resources folder for JSON translation files instead of static web assets under wwwroot/texts as these files are not meant to be directly accessed via web. This will also reduce number of published files, and simplify deployment.
• Introduced quick filter option in Translations page to show/hide user translated and text that has any translation in the target language. There are also buttons to export translated values / original values to make translation easier. Each translation resource folder also contains a template JSON file in English language that can be used as source.
• ITypeSource may return its assemblies if available via the new IGetAssemblies interface
• Introduce LanguageIdKeyPair to use as dictionary key in LocalTextRegistry.
• Added IGetAllTexts interface to LocalTextRegistry to return all registered texts
• Added ILanguageFallbacks interface for LocalTextRegistry to get/set language fallbacks.
• Added initialization support to LocalText directly, so that readonly localtexts can be used in nested text classes without having analyzer warnings
• PropertyItemsLocalTextRegistration to register texts defined implicitly via DisplayName, Tab, Category, Hint, Placeholder attributes in Forms/Columns so that they can be seen/translated in Translations page
• Also handle Hint, Placeholder, Category, Tab attributes for Row/Entity local text registration
• NavigationLocalTextRegistration to register texts for navigation items from attributes
• Moved NavigationItemAttribute down to Serenity.Core from Serenity.Web
• Site local text package has a default regex that will be included in addition to anything you define in appsettings.bundles.json, so you may remove LocalTextPackages section from your appsettings.json unless you included some additional texts there.

Bugfixes:

• Fix fields without displayname attributes are shown with their local text keys in grids/forms. Use the propertyname as implicit display name.
• Crash in Arabic culture in the constructor of ScriptCulture

6.6.3 (2023-03-24)

Features:

• Adjust brotli and gzip compression levels based on content length, caching duration and bundle type etc. as brotli with its default level is too slow, sometimes 100 times slower than gzip default level
• Add getRowDefinition() method to return row type and read idProperty etc. from there.

Bugfixes:

• Inline editing required fields that does not have NotNull/Required flag.

6.6.2 (2023-03-23)

Bugfixes:

• Generated navigation link referred to the old page class name ending with Controller

6.6.1 (2023-03-18)

Bugfixes:

• Criteria parser with params failed in some cases, especially with IN statements like 'a in @values'. Note that you can't use parens there, e.g. a in (@values) is invalid unlike SQL.

6.6.0 (2023-03-14)

Features:

• Added a new Criteria builder functionality, so that criteria can be defined easier without having to remember the JSON array structure. E.g. instead of [['SomeField'], Criteria.Operator.in, [[1, 2, 3]]] you can write Criteria('SomeField').in([1, 2, 3]), or instead of [Criteria.Operator.isNull, ['SomeField']] you can write Criteria('SomeField').isNull() with intellisense support.
• Introduced ability to parse criteria from an SQL like expression at client side, e.g. request.Criteria = Criteria.and(request.Criteria, Criteria.parse('A = 'b' and B > 5 and (C in (1, 2, 3) or D like 'x%'))
• It can also parse parameterized expressions similar to Dapper: Criteria.parse("xyz = @p1 and abc like @p2", { p1: 5, p2: 'test%' })
• There is also a third recommended option using tagged string literals: Criteria.parse`xyz = ${15} and abc like ${'b%'}`
• Converted all basic samples pages (Serenity.Demo.BasicSamples) to fully modular code, e.g. ESM
• Converted all advanced samples pages (Serenity.Demo.AdvancedSamples) to fully modular code, e.g. ESM [StartSharp]
• Renamed all page controllers so that they use Page.cs suffix instead of Controller suffix. This made it more consistent, as their file names ended with Page.cs while the type they contained was named Controller.
• Renamed all service endpoint controllers so that they use Endpoint.cs suffix
• ServiceEndpoint now derives from ControllerBase instead of Controller as services should not normally return views. If you returned view from a service endpoint for any reason, you'll need to move it to a controller. The endpoints generated by Sergen will have Endpoint suffix instead of Controller suffix. Similarly, pages will have Page suffix.
• Updated sergen and Pro.Coder so that it works fine with controllers without Controller suffix, e.g. XYZPage or XYZEndpoint
• There is now a new source generator in Serenity.Pro.Coder that generates full paths to ESM modules, just like MVC does it for view paths. This will allow referencing ESM module scripts with compile time check and intelli-sense [StartSharp].
• Sergen now has a ForeignFieldSelection option that defaults to All. When it is NameOnly it will bring only the name field from foreign rows instead of all fields, so that your entities will be smaller and will cause less issues when a joined row's fields are renamed / removed. When it is None no foreign view fields will be generated.
• There is now a IncludeForeignFields option in sergen.json that allows including more fields by their field names, when the ForeignFieldSelection is None or Name.
• Added FileScopedNamespaces option to sergen.json so that the generated code can use the file scoped namespace feature in C# 10.
• Added DeclareJoinConstants option to sergen.json. When true generated rows will have join constants like const string jCustomer = nameof(Customer) and it will be used in expressions. This will make it easier to rename a join alias and use Origin etc. attributes.
• Added EnableRowTemplates option to sergen.json so that the generated row will define the RowTemplate class supported by Serenity.Pro.Coder [StartSharp]
• Added OmitDefaultSchema option to sergen.json. When it is true, the default schema name, e.g. "dbo" for SQL Server won't be emitted in generated field expressions in Row.cs
• Added SaveGeneratedTables option to sergen.json. When set to false, sergen will not save connection settings and table options like Identifier, Module etc. back to sergen.json after code generation.
• Added TSBuild -> EntryPoints setting to sergen.json. This is a list of globs for ESM entry points which defaults to **/*Page.ts and **/*ScriptInit.ts. This globs if specified are read by tsbuild script and the new ESM module paths source generator.
• There is a new JSON schema for sergen.json that will be picked up by Visual Studio automatically so that you can have intellisense support and descriptions while editing sergen.json files.
• It is now possible to use "Extends" function in sergen.json similar to tsconfig.json to extend the settings from a base file.
• A special type of extends value can be used to extend from defaults. E.g. when you set "Extends": "defaults@6.6.0" your settings will be extended from the defaults we set for 6.6.0 version of Sergen. The values for defaults6.6.0 are: DeclareJoinConstants: true, EndOfLine: LF, FileScopedNamespaces: true, ForeignFieldSelection: NameOnly, OmitDefaultSchema: true, SaveGeneratedTables: false, Restore: Exclude Files/Typings, ServerTypings -> LocalTexts: true. This way you can use modern recommended defaults, while keeping backward compatibility for those who still want to use old defaults.
• Simplified scriban templates in Sergen
• [Breaking Change] CKEditorBasePath default is changed to "~/Serenity.Assets/Scripts/ckeditor/" instead of the obsolete one "~/Scripts/ckeditor/".
• Added more hooks and injection points in GridEditController so that it is now possible to dynamically set editor parameters, use a different editor type in a column for different rows, implement cascaded dropdowns etc. [StartSharp]
  • Moved GridPage related extensions and types to Serenity.Extensions so that it can be used in feature projects
  • It is now recommended to remove GridPageModel, GridPage.cshtml from your Serene/StartSharp and use the one in Serenity.Extensions instead
  • The module for GridPage, e.g. SomePage.ts should have a default export function pageInit() instead of a jQuery ready script so that it can be passed options from controller/model and tested properly. jQuery ready is also generally not necessary for ES modules.
  • There is now a PanelPage extension that creates a PanelDiv instead of a GridDiv.
  • GridPage and PanelPage uses ModelPage extension which accepts a ModulePageModel that includes additional parameters like HtmlMarkup, Options to pass to the default export in page module, Layout, PageId etc. parameters.
  • Obsoleted EnvironmentSettings.IsPublicDemo and used preprocessor directives instead
  • Introduced s-site-logo-img class which allows specifiying the site logo for a img via its content property, so that the site logo for all pages like login, sidebar etc. can be changed from one location by overriding css rule like .s-site-logo-img { content: url(.../mylogo.png); } etc.
  • There is also a s-form-title-logo class that adjusts the look of logo in the forms, e.g. rounded with sidebar band background. It might be used to adjust logo styling by overriding its css rules.
  • Removed all the .cshtml files for membership related pages like Login, Signup, Reset etc. and moved their script code into Page.ts files so that it can be checked at compile time.
  • [BREAKING CHANGE] There is no longer a globally defined Q.Lookup interface while using ES modules. If you referenced it in some modular code, you should import { Lookup } from "serenity-is/corelib/q" and replace Q.Lookup with Lookup in your project.
  • IEditDialog.load methods fail argument made optional. It was normally optional but did not seem so in the typing.
  • Arrange method in dialog type made public instead of protected
  • Sergen prefers importing from @serenity-is/corelib/q instead of @serenity-is/corelib for types that are exported from both modules, like ServiceResponse, PropertyItem etc. This helps with dts-generator tool as it has problems with types with same names that are imported from multiple modules.
  • Introduced DefaultSectionKeyAttribute so that settings can be configured by their default section key via the new ConfigureSection extension

Bugfixes:

• Fixed styling for EntityGridDialog panel
• jQuery UI datepicker was showing under the dialog when using it in a inline editing grid inside a dialog [StartSharp]
• Remove loading class from parent element as select2 will only remove the class from the input
• fix error when trying to to use Q.formatDate outside of 10:00 and 19:59 with format 'dd.mm.yyyy hh:mm' (#6723)

6.5.4 (2023-02-28)

Features:

• Implemented OpenID Authorization Code Flow, e.g. logging via the web site instead of with user/password in mobile / desktop apps [StartSharp].
• [BREAKING CHANGE] The services required for OpenIdAuthorizationControllerBase is changed, so you should get latest version of OpenIdAuthorizationController.cs from the StartSharp repository if you have that in your project.

Bugfixes:

• Handle the case where select2 is destroyed before the request is completed or timer fires
• Fixed icon for FileDownloadFormatter
• SelectEditor with async source should not update/clear its items when cascade value change etc.
• Resolve issue with group by in oracle due to alias starting with underscore

6.5.3 (2023-02-27)

Features:

• Add virtual methods / protected members to DefaultSqlConnections / DefaultConnectionStrings for better extensibility
• Changed update button text in german to Aktualisieren instead of Bearbeitung which was reported to be incorrect (#6689)

Bugfixes:

• Fix field size not set to the correct variable, possibly affecting precision/scale
• BasePermissionAttribute should accept null values for compatibility

6.5.2 (2023-02-21)

Features:

• Added SqlNow, SqlUtcNow, SqlDateTimeOffset, Case, CaseSwitch, Coalesce dynamic expression attributes
• Added ability to use another type of expression attribute as arguments to the dynamic expression attributes, e.g. use SqlNow etc. in a DateDiff attribute like: [DateDiff(DateParts.Day, typeof(SqlNowAttribute), "t0.ReleaseDate")]
• Add ability to get/set the groupitemmetadataprovider in RemoteView
• DraggableGroupingMixin will try to create and auto register GroupItemMetadataProvider itself if it is not already registered and pass it to the view
• Make SqlConnections available to use for the derived classes of RowLookupScripts
• Added ISiteAbsoluteUrl abstraction to access web site's internal (local) and external (public) url's and EnviromentSettings:InternalSiteUrl setting that takes precedence over request's base URI, and SiteExternalUrl for report callbacks.
• Refactored HTML to PDF conversion process via new IHtmlToPdfConverter, IHtmlReportPdfRenderer, IHtmlReportRenderUrlBuilder abstractions
• [BREAKING CHANGE] To register the default implementations for IHtmlToPdfConverter, IHtmlReportPdfRenderer etc. services.AddReporting should be called instead of services.AddExcelExporter in Startup.cs.
• Added new HtmlToPdfOptions class that implements IHtmlToPdfOptions like the converters.
• Completely redesigned and refactored reporting system and abstractions via new IReportFactory, IReportRenderer, IReportRetrieveHandler, IReportTreeFactory interfaces. Make sure to call services.AddReporting() in Startup.cs.
• Added Puppeteer based HTML to PDF converter implementation with Chrome and experimental Firefox option [StartSharp]. services.AddPuppeteerHtmlToPdf should be called before services.AddReporting line to use Puppeteer instead of WKHtmlToPdf. To make some old reports keep using old WKHtmlToPdf based converter, add [UseWKHtmlToPdf(true)] attribute on the report classes.
• TemplateHelper.RenderViewToString can access the current request/action context if available
• Added experimental HtmlReportFileUrlBuilder that can use a temporary folder, instead of a callback for HTML report rendering.

Bugfixes:

• MultipleUploadEditor should selecting multiple files in upload dialog
• Fix Criteria.Exist for sqlite as it does not like double parenthesis (#6687)
• Group summaries was not displayed in some cases like when the group item metadata provider is not passed to the view options
• File watcher should not try to create watcher if the directory does not exist
• Add section.content for proper layout when opening panels if the navigation is hidden e.g. hideNav=1

6.5.1 (2023-02-03)

Features:

• Introduced new BaseExpressionAttribute which allows inherited expression attributes to perform translation based on target dialect. Also the dialect itself can customize the translation by implementing the new ISqlExpressionTranslator interface.
• New ConcatAttribute, DatePartAttribute and DateDiffAttribute dynamic SQL expression types that generates expression based on server type.
• Optional Format for expression attribute types
• Allow overriding field size via attribute
• Allow specifying join alias in OriginAttribute indirectly via propery name of a property with LeftJoinAttribute
• New useCssVars option in SleekGrid that allows using inline css variables at grid container element to position columns instead of a CSS stylesheet appended to the head
• Don't swallow exception in source generators so that issues can be identified if any [StartSharp]

Bugfixes:

• LookupScriptRegistration should not try to run for abstract classes.
• Fix typo in Sum aggregator name and aggregator display texts

6.5.0 (2023-01-26)

Features:

• [BREAKING CHANGE] Updating Microsoft.Data.SqlClient to 5.1.0. As Encrypt=true became the default in 4.x+ (https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/sql-server-blog/released-general-availability-of-microsoft-data-sqlclient-4-0/ba-p/2983346) it may cause connections to fail. Please see the linked doc, and either install a trusted certificate in your SQL server (recommended!), or set TrustServerCertificate=true or Encrypt=false in your connection strings both in development and deployment/production!
• Updated packages including Newtonsoft.json to 13.0.2, SixLabors.ImageSharp to 2.1.3, NUglify to 1.20.4, Microsoft.Build to 17.3.2, Spectre.Console to 0.46.0, Npgsql to 7.01, MySqlConnector to 2.2.5, Microsoft.Data.Sqlite to 7.0.2, FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient to 9.11, Scriban to 5.5.2
• Html encode jquery validator messages in showLabel function
• Updated SleekGrid to 1.5.3 which includes useCssVars option to use css vars for cell positioning instead of dynamic stylesheet (up to 50 columns). This should reduce amount of css reflows on page load etc. It is not enabled by default yet.

6.4.10 (2023-01-24)

Bugfixes:

• propertygrid should htmlEncode field captions
• draggabble grouping mixin should htmlEncode grouped column captions

6.4.9 (2023-01-21)

Bugfixes:

• [WARNING!] If htmlEncode is not called when using local texts in ascript method (e.g. <div>{ text("SomeKey") }</div> instead of <div>{htmlEncode(text("SomeKey")) }</div>, like getTemplate etc. an attackermay use the translations screen to inject javascript. This affected partsof our demo as everyone can login as admin and can use the translationscreen. The translations are reset every 30 mins in our demo so it was nota big issue. But you are strongly recommended to check your own code inaddition to standard screens like login, reset password etc. See ourlatest commits in Serene/StartSharp/Common Features, etc. repositories forfixes we applied. Even if no one other than the admin can entertranslations screen, it is still a good idea to mitigate the risk as youshould not trust translators, even the admin himself. We can't change the"text" or "tryGetText" functions to htmlEncode by default, as they may beused by others in contexts other than HTML like functions which expectsraw text like notify messages, dialog titles, column titles etc., whichwould result in double HTML encoding. Prefer localText() function insteadof obsolete text() function for better discoverability (but it does notencode as well)

• [BREAKING CHANGE] htmlEncode now also encodes single and double quotes just like attrEncode. This is done to avoid cases where a developer might use htmlEncode in an attribute instead of attrEncode by mistake.

6.4.8 (2023-01-18)

Bugfixes:

• set Widget.idPrefix to the value passed from property grid options, https://github.com/serenity-is/common-features/issues/21, so that the invalid examples in common-features like OtherFormInTab etc. work

6.4.7 (2023-01-16)

6.4.4 (2023-01-08)

Bugfixes:

• Removed corelib/coverage folder from Serenity.Scripts nuget contents

6.4.3 (2023-01-07)

Release Notes: https://serenity.is/docs/release-notes/6.4.3

Features:

• Flutter based mobile applications for Android/iOS [StartSharp Enterprise]
• OpenIddict integration and JWT authentication options [StartSharp]
• Introduced AutoValidateAntiforgeryIgnoreBearerFilter attribute which can be used in place of AutoValidateAntiforgeryAttribute and will skip anti-forgery validation when the request contains an Authentication: Bearer header and there are no cookie headers.
• New Glassy Light theme [StartSharp]
• Improved handling for type registries like EnumTypeRegistry, EditorTypeRegistry, and FormatterTypeRegistry. Improved error messages that are displayed when a type cannot be found. They can now discover types that are registered after the type initialization process is completed. Use a common base type registry for all type registries to make it consistent.
• [BREAKING CHANGE] Q.getTypeName is renamed to Q.getTypeShortName. Got rid of some static type properties like __typeName$, __metadata$ etc. that is no longer necessary. Used defineproperty for system related props like __typeName etc. to make them non enumerable
• [BREAKING CHANGE] toastr notification functions like Q.notifyError and Q.notifyInfo will escape HTML by default. This is to avoid possible script injection attacks. Pass escapeHtml: false if you need the old behavior.
• Removed jQuery ScrollIntoView hard-coded dependency and use it only if it is available. You may remove jquery.scrollintoview.js from appsettings.bundles.json.
• Removed jquery.iframe-transport.js dependency. You may remove it from your appsettings.bundles.json as it is only used by jquery.upload plugin for very old browsers like IE9 etc.
• Serenity.Pro.UI.js dependency as it is only used for legacy EmailClient sample.
• Removed TemplateBundle from appsettings.bundles.json, introduced ColumnAndFormBundle that combines ColumnsBundle and FormBundle.
• Rewrote Dashboard with ES Modules [StartSharp]
• GroupItemMetadataProvider SleekGrid plugin is ported to ES Modules. Slick.Data.GroupItemMetadataProvider is now obsolete, use GroupItemMetadataProvider from "@serenity-is/sleekgrid" or Slick.GroupItemMetadataProvider
• Q.alert, Q.confirm, etc. methods are suffixed with Dialog to avoid mixing up with the browser methods, e.g. Q.alertDialog, Q.confirmDialog. Old methods are still available but obsolete.
• TsBuild trigger argument is now obsolete. You should change prepare script in package.json file with dotnet build -target:RestoreTypings
• [BREAKING CHANGE] Some row properties are only available via IRow or IEditableRow interface. Introduced IEditableRow and instead of making desktop UI editing (e.g. WPF INotifyPropertyChanged, IsAnyFieldChanged, IsEditing) etc. related properties / methods of row instances only accessible via this interface. They were confusing and polluting the row interface in web applications where they were almost never used. Cast the row instance like ((IEditableRow)row).BeginEdit() etc to access them if ever used. Similary, "IdField, IgnoreConstraints, NameField, Table, TrackAssignments, TrackWithChecks, GetDictionaryData, GetDictionaryDataKeys, SetDictionaryData" properties and fields can only be accessed via IRow interface. This is done to avoid polluting intellisense list as they are very rarely used, and as a preparation to fix swagger / apiexplorer integration
• [BREAKING CHANGE] rename MethodChainingExtensions to ChainableExtensions and only support single action overload as that is the only one which is used anywhere so far
• [BREAKING CHANGE] make rarely used ValidateEnum and ValidateDateRange methods non-extension methods so they don't come up in the intellisense for rows. Not a breaking change unless you used them as extension methods.
• improved binding convention of IDbConnection and IUnitOfWork and ServiceRequest types in ServiceEndpoints so that api browsers like swagger etc. can analyse it better and not crash
• [BREAKING CHANGE] Slick.Event is renamed to Slick.EventEmitter, and Slick.EventHandler is renamed to Slick.EventSubscriber, Slick.Handler is renamed to Slick.EventListener to avoid mixing up with browser types with same names.
• Introduced TransactionSettingsAttribute and added a TransactionSettings which can be configured via options pattern. ServiceEndpoint will check the attribute or transaction settings like IsolationLevel. The attribute, settings and the UnitOfWork object has a DeferStart option that defers starting the transaction until the Connection is opened. This flag might have undesired side effects, so use it at your own risk if you know what you are doing.
• Added the TransactionlessUnitOfWork which is an implementation of IUnitOfWork that does not actually start any transaction. Should only be used in edge cases to call methods that expect a IUnitOfWork instance, but you are sure that the whole operation will be readonly, or you don't really need a transaction. If using with save handlers etc it might be risky. Make sure there are no service behaviors that run behind the scenes which may write or require a transaction.
• Improved TSTypeLister performance by making it not dive into huge directories like node_modules if not needed.

Bugfixes:

• use Object.prototype.hasOwnProperty and fix field proxy detected as class
• fix handling for dynamic property, https://github.com/serenity-is/Serenity/issues/6624

• the key sent to IFilenameFormatSanitizer contained "|" chars

6.4.1 (2022-12-09)

Features:

• implemented OpenIddict integration for OpenID / JWT authentication schemes in Serenity.Pro.OpenIddict (StartSharp)
• added LocalTextDataScript to access local text as a JSON object from mobile apps etc. by specifying package name with "pack" and language ID with "lang" query string parameters via DynJS.axd/RemoteData.LocalText or DynamicData/RemoteData.LocalText
• introduced IFilenameFormatSanitizer interface which can be used in place of default sanitizing logic in upload filename formatting by implementing it in a custom upload editor attribute by deriving from default ones or injecting the implementation via DI.
• added StringHelper.SanitizeFilePath and made StringHelper.SanitizeFilename handle more invalid filename chars returned from Path.GetInvalidFilenameChars.
• serenity demo is moved to https://demo.serenity.is, old https://serenity.is/demo urls are redirected so it is not expected to cause a problem
• StartSharp repository is moved to https://github.com/serenity-premium/startsharp

Bugfixes:

• AllowNonImage in UploadOptions should be true, as it is mainly used for temporary uploads

6.4.0 (2022-12-05)

Features:

• switch to pnpm for Serenity and feature projects (Serene / StartSharp still use npm)
• also use state store for script type registry

• ThumbnailGenerator class is now obsolete, use it via DI by IImageProcessor interface
• abstracted upload processor via IUploadProcessor interface
• UploadProcessor is now obsolete, inject and use IUploadProcessor interface via DI
• abstracted upload file and image validation with new IUploadValidator interface.
• introduced IUploadOptions interface and UploadOptions class for keeping default upload options and using in FilePage
• reorganized upload editor attributes through new abstract class BaseUploadEditorAttribute
• image validation is now only performed for the extensions specified in ImageExtensions which is ".gif;.jpg;.jpeg;.png;" by default
• default extension black list can now be modified via ExtensionBlackList property of upload editor attributes
• added UploadIntent property to upload editor attributes, which is a string that is passed to the upload editors and as a query string back to FilePage during temporary upload. This can be used to customize default thumbnail size, validations etc. in upload method based on intent.
• [BREAKING CHANGE] IUploadStorage.CopyFrom and IUploadStorage.WriteFile methods accept OverwriteOption enum instead of bool? autoRename flag which was confusing
• introduced full set of undelete handler related types and behaviors
• completed XML documentation for Serenity.Services and Serenity.Web
• switched to typescript modules also in Serene
• update bootstrap, bootstrap-icons and jquery.
• updated sleekgrid to 1.4.4
• jquery is now at Serenity.Assets/jquery/jquery.js instead of Serenity.Assets/Scripts/jquery-3.5.1.js, you should update your includes in appsettings.bundles.json
• updated movie tutorial for typescript modules

• ported all pro features projects to ES modules, including Serenity.Pro.Extensions, Serenity.Demo.AdvancedSamples, Serenity.Pro.Meeting etc. [StartSharp]
• moved CSHTML views for feature packages to /Areas/ProjectName and code files to /Modules instead of /ProjectName/
• added simplified IFileSystem base interface which removes dependency to System.IO.Abstractions, but it can still be used in tests
• upload behavior refinements, remove hard coded dependency to editor attributes and use interfaces instead
• allow upload attributes other than ImageUploadEditor / MultipleImageUploadEditor to be also handled by upload behaviors by implementing some interfaces
• renamed MultipleImageUploadEditor to MultipleFileUploadEditor, ImageUploadBehavior to FileUploadBehavior
• testable disk upload storage via IDiskUploadFileSystem abstraction. it can also be used to create a custom disk upload storage.
• ported several tests including local texts, globalfilter written in .NET framework for Serenity.Core

• Areas/ProjectName is also scanned by MVC generator for views / strip view parts
• set buttontext as icon font only for < jquery ui 1.12.1 as 1.13x does not allow html in button text
• reuse editor type finding for external libs as long as their namespace match with project name. this improves type discovery for modules, as typescript does not preserve decorators in .d.ts files. make sure your namespaces match the project name, e.g. an editor with key 'MyLib.MySome.MyEditor' should be exported from a 'MyLib.MySome' project (mylib.mysome npm package) with 'MyEditor' classname.

• better determination of module name in TSModuleResolver for node_modules packages
• also restore dist/index.js for project references to node_modules in addition to dist/index.ts

• add option to disable particular transform in source generator with sergen.json MVC/SourceGenerator and ClientTypes/SourceGenerator settings by using false.
• go back to non-incremental source generator for clienttypes as it breaks syntax highlighting when referencing .ts files as AdditionalTexts, and there is no single output .Web.js for modules [StartSharp]
• disable source generator when SourceGeneratorTransform is false in project file [StartSharp]
• read MVC/StripViewPaths from sergen.json in ViewPathsSourceGenerator if available [StartSharp]

• removed maximizable dialog from sergen scriban templates as it is not a part of core and not used anymore
• send an empty source map with 202 status, instead of 403, to avoid seeing warnings when SourceMapSecurityMiddleware is enabled
• handling for root namespace in client types source generator (StartSharp)
• made add button functional in dashboard task list (StartSharp)
• reverted back to Microsoft.Data.SqlClient to 3.1.1 from 4.1.0 in sergen, as Encrypt=true became the default in 4.x+ (https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/sql-server-blog/released-general-availability-of-microsoft-data-sqlclient-4-0/ba-p/2983346) which is a [BREAKING CHANGE] causing connections to fail. As Serenity.Data used 2.1.0 of Microsoft.Data.SqlClient, only sergen was affected by this issue, not StartSharp or Serene apps. Please see the linked doc, and either install a trusted certificate in your SQL server, or set TrustServerCertificate=true or Encrypt=false in your connection string, as we'll be updating Microsoft.Data.SqlClient to newer versions in the future, that may bring back this error.

Bugfixes:

• fix referenced packages node_modules index.d.ts restoring for modular coding in Serenity.Pro.Coder.targets [StartSharp]

• serenity corelib itself can be loaded without loading external scripts like jQuery, jQuery UI, toastr etc. but functionality will be limited. useful for testing and frontend pages.
• removed dependency on saltaralle mscorlib.js. no longer have to include it, unless you have some code that uses "ss." namespace in your project. most of them can be converted to "Q." alternatives. search for (ss as any) or (ss.) in your code before removing.
• introduced splitted parts of Serenity.CoreLib.js so that only required libs can be loaded when needed. useful for frontend apps. the list of libs: serenity-core.js (contains Q and core types / functions), serenity-widget.js (contains base widget type, ui related typings, toolbar etc. depends on core), serenity-forms.js (contains validation, templated panel, property grid, property panel, depends on core and widget), serenity-editors.js (contains most editor types, depends on core and widget), serenity-slick.js (contains remoteview and other slickgrid related types, depends on core), serenity-dialogs.js (contains templated dialog, property dialog and entity dialog, depends on core, widget and forms), serenity-quickfilter.js (contains quick search and quick filter bar, depends on core, widget and editors), serenity-filterpanel.js (contains filter panel and dialog, depends on core, widget, editors, quickfilter, forms and dialogs), serenity-grids.js (contains data and entity grid, depends on core, slick, widget, forms, editors, dialogs, quickfilter and filterpanel).

• a new layout watcher that can call layout for elements when their width / height / or visibility change by using a timer. used to resolve slickgrid layout issues.
• replace COREFX ifdefs with NET45 as .NET CORE and ASP.NET CORE is now the default. this will open way to use other IDEs like Visual Studio Code for .NET CORE projects. OmniSharp extension VSCODE does not work well with #IFs and project references.

Bugfixes:

• make sure DateTimeField does not fail on read if the data reader returns a DateTimeOffset
• if date/time kind is local, should convert the value to universal time before formatting, as .net format function does not do this conversion automatically

Features:

• if null value handling is set to include, row converter should also serialize null fields
• define JsonSettings.StrictIncludeNulls and JsonSettings.TolerantIncludeNulls which serializes null values, and checks them on deserialization. JSON class methods also has an additional includeNulls (default = false) to be able to use these settings.
• added NavigationPermissionAttribute which takes precedence over ReadPermissionAttribute on a row to determine permission for page and navigation item of the row.
• add AsSqlValue method which calls AsObject by default to Field object. this will be useful for fields which has a different storage type then their value type, e.g. JsonField
• added JsonField type. it has no attributes that controls serialization options like nulls so such options must be set through Field.Settings property if required for now.
• don't show an error if xhr status is abort
• added async source support to Select2Editor
• added async option to use getLookupAsync to lookup editor
• added ServiceLookupEditor type
• don't use type delay for initial load, hide select2 spinner while waiting for type delay
• add async option to lookupeditor which makes it work like a service lookup editor
• added FieldReadPermissionAttribute which determines the default permission required to read fields of a row, optionally excluding [LookupInclude] and Id/Name fields. This will make it easier to use a ServiceLookupEditor with a row, for example by setting [ReadPermission("Northwind:Lookups")], [FieldReadPermission("Northwind:General", ApplyToLookups = false)], [NavigationPermission("Northwind:General")], so only users with Northwind.General can see the page and read all the fields through the list service / grid, while a user with Northwind.Lookups permission can call List service but can only read ID + Name + LookupInclude fields through it.
• adding missing field HeaderHtmlUrl to IHtmlToPdfOptions
• include pdb file for serenity.web for source link debug support
• ensure connection is open for better compatibility with mvc version in dapper interface

• sergen provides option to generate custom files by setting CustomGenerate option in configuration file. this is a dictionary of template file => output file format ({0} class name, {1} Module, {2} class path, {3} typings path)
• it is possible to show / editor custom settings (boolean/string) by adding them to CustomSettings dictionary in sergen configuration file. these settings are available as {{CustomSettings.SettingKey}} in scriban templates.
