1.1.0

03/24/2025

Highlights

• New AST interpreter: Modified operator precedence rules to align more closely with programming standards, and better code execution performance. Now in QodlyScript, 1+2x5 equals 11 and not 15!

• Support for HTTP Handlers: Added support for defining and managing HTTP Handlers to process requests based on URL patterns and HTTP methods, with a new UI and code editor integration.

• onInit Event for Qodly Sources: Added a distinct On Init event for Qodly Sources, which triggers when a Qodly Source is instantiated by the renderer. This allows developers to set up an initial value for a Qodly Source without interference from subsequent On Change events.

• Privileges Detailed Permission Review: When a role is selected in the Roles & Privileges editor, a detailed permission review is displayed to provide insight into the final permissions resolution for that specific role. This feature helps developers fine-tune privileges more effectively by showing the impact of privilege configurations.

• QodlyEvents: onStartup and onStop: Added structured support for defining automatic startup and shutdown logic within the QodlyEvents class.

Qodly Studio

What's new

• Intervals for Date Input: Added support for defining date selection intervals, enabling restrictions such as start/end dates, specific date ranges, or day-based selection. Users can manually set intervals or bind a datasource for dynamic control.

• Week Start Customization in Date Picker: Added support for selecting the starting day of the week in the date picker.

• Iterator Qodly Source ($This) Action Support: Added support for Drop and Copy as the only available actions when using an iterator Qodly Source ($This) in the events panel of a standard action.

• Validation Rule for Qodly Source Selection: Enforced a validation rule that allows only shared Qodly sources in Saved Conditions. Selecting a local Qodly source triggers a sanity check error with a clear message and visual indicators to prevent misconfiguration.

• Clear Non-Existing Resources in Privileges: Added a visual indicator for unavailable resources in the permissions table. Non-existing resources now appear in red with a shadow effect, and a Clear button is enabled to remove all associated permissions.

• New privilege operators for states: has at least one privilege and has no privilege.

• Flexbox Direction Options: Added "Row Reverse" & "Column Reverse" options to the Direction property If the Display is Flex, allowing items to be arranged in reverse order.

• New Event in Selectbox Component: Added the On Clear event, which triggers an action when the selected item is cleared.

• Data table: New sorting behaviors for columns.

• Checkbox type selection options, allowing to select the available states and default values for a checkbox.

• Reveal Password Icon Placement: Added an option to position the reveal password icon on either the left or right side of the text input field.

Qodly Server

What's New

• New 4D.IncomingMessage class, allowing to process contents retrieved from custom HTTP Request handlers.

• Added the logEvent command, allowing you to write custom events in the diagnostic log file.

• Added the Endpoints class, allowing your code to know on which endpoint it is executed (for example public or authenticated endpoint).

• New 4D.TCPConnection and 4D.TCPEvent classes to handle low-level TCP connections.

• Enhanced the .sign() and .verify() functions in the 4D.CryptoKey class to support Blob data in the message parameter.

• Users class:

  • The class is now available as a singleton.
    warning

    While existing instantiation using cs.Qodly.Users.new() remains functional for backward compatibility, we no longer recommend using it.

  • The following functions have been renamed for improved clarity:
    • .getAllUsers() → .allUsers()
    • .getCurrentUser() → .currentUser()
    warning

    The old syntax is still supported for compatibility but will be deprecated over time. We recommend transitioning to the new syntax.

Upgrade Tips

Before upgrading your main environment, you are advised to test your app in a distinct environment:

• make sure you have an available environment in Qodly 1.1.0
• and deploy a release of your app on this environment to test it.

Or, you can just clone your app into a new app. The clone will automatically be upgraded in the latest Qodly version.

You're advised to backup your application before upgrading.

Points to check

Some new behaviors may affect your apps and require some adjustments in your code or page design:

• Modified operator precedence rules
• guest no longer supported as privilege value in the State conditions editor (replaced by has no privilege).
