We are very pleased to announce the release of the Twig extension version 2.0.5 which provides three enhancements:

• Extended simple functions and simple filters support.
• Added @app/views, @app/modules, @app/widgets as Twig_Loader_Filesystem loader paths, same for theme pathMap paths.
• Ability for register_asset_bundle() to return AssetBundle instance when second argument is true.

See the CHANGELOG for a complete list of changes.

Note that it's likely that it is the last 2.0.x release and the next one will be 2.1.x which may break backwards compatibility. Make sure you have ~2.0.0 in your composer.json if you want to stay on 2.0.x releases.

We are very pleased to announce the release of the Sphinx extension version 2.0.6.

This release provides the following significant improvements:

• Ability to use float values as a SphinxQL query bound parameters.
• Added yii\sphinx\MatchExpression allowing advanced composition of MATCH expressions. See documentation for example.
• Improved support for distributed indexes.

This release also provides other enhancements and bug fixes. See the CHANGELOG for a complete list of changes.

We are very pleased to announce the release of MongoDB extension version 2.1.1 which brings 6 enhancements and bug fixes.

See CHANGELOG for details.

We are very pleased to announce the release of the Auth Client extension version 2.1.1. This release fixes a critical bug: \yii\authclient\BaseClient::createRequest() ignored defaultRequestOptions and requestOptions, which, in particular, was a reason for the error during GitHub authentication process.

This release also provides other enhancements and bug fixes. See the CHANGELOG for a complete list of changes.

We are very pleased to announce the release of the Auth Client extension version 2.1.0. The main change is that it's now uses the HTTP Client extension providing more sophisticated base for REST API requests.

Note that 2.1.0 introduces significant backwards compatibility break! It is very likely, that existing code based on 2.0.x versions will be unable to function with 2.1.0 without adjustments.

Check the UPGRADE instructions for migration from 2.0.x versions. Also make sure your composer.json has the necessary version constraint limit if you want to stay with the 2.0.x version, e.g. ~2.0.6. Check the Composer documentation on version constraints to learn how that works.

This release also provides several enhancements, such as support of client_credentials and password authentication grant type for OAuth 2.0. See the CHANGELOG for a complete list of changes.

We are very pleased to announce the release of HTTP client extension version 2.0.1 which brings 10 enhancements and bug fixes. See CHANGELOG for details. The most signiifcant change is introduction of beforeSend and afterSend events for the HTTP request:

use yii\httpclient\Client;
use yii\httpclient\Request;
use yii\httpclient\RequestEvent;

$client = new Client();

We are very pleased to announce the release of JQuery UI extension version 2.0.6 which brings important bugfixes for yii\jui\Draggable, yii\jui\Droppable and yii\jui\Resizable. See CHANGELOG for details.

We are very pleased to announce the release of AuthClient extension version 2.0.6 which brings 4 enhancements and bug fixes. See CHANGELOG for details.

This is the last release in 2.0.x branch. Next release is going to be 2.1.0 which will use HTTP Client extension.

We are very pleased to announce the initial release of the new HTTP Client extension version 2.0.0.

The extension allows you to perform compose and perform HTTP requests:

use yii\httpclient\Client;

We are very pleased to announce the release of the MongoDB extension version 2.1.0, which uses the new PHP MongoDB driver, providing the ability to function on PHP 7.x and HHVM.

Note that migration to the new MongoDB driver caused a significant backward compatibility break! It is very likely, that existing code based on 2.0.x versions will be unable to function with 2.1.0 without adjustments. Check the UPGRADE instructions for migration from 2.0.x versions.

Also make sure your composer.json has the necessary version constraint limit if you want to stay with the 2.0.x version using the old driver, e.g. ~2.0.5. Check the Composer documentation on version constraints to learn how that works.

This release also provides several enhancements, such as writing and reading data in batches. See the CHANGELOG for a complete list of changes.

We are very pleased to announce the release of MongoDB extension version 2.0.5 which brings 17 enhancements and bug fixes. See CHANGELOG for details.

This is the last release in 2.0.x branch. Next release is going to be 2.1.0 which will use new MongoDB driver.

We'd like to thank our contributors for the great job they've done. Thank you!

We are very pleased to announce extension releases. As you might already know, we decided to decouple extension releases from the framework release to allow more flexibility and possible more frequent extension releases. This however has not really happened in the past as we were very busy working on the framework itself and also each release takes some extra resources to review the code and prepare the release. We have now automated most of the release process for extensions so we can hopefully release more often in the future and are now happy to announce the release of the following extensions:

• API Documentation generator (yii2-apidoc) version 2.0.5, CHANGELOG
• Bootstrap extension (yii2-bootstrap) version 2.0.6, CHANGELOG
• Codeception extension (yii2-codeception) version 2.0.5, CHANGELOG
• Debug Toolbar (yii2-debug) version 2.0.6, CHANGELOG

We are very pleased to announce the releases of Debug, Bootstrap, Sphinx and Authclient extensions. We decided to decouple extension releases from the framework release to allow more flexibility and possible more frequent extension releases. Debug was released quite long time ago but at the time we were too busy for announcement.

Debug Toolbar version 2.0.5 (yii2-debug) ¶

Debug toolbar got some reliablity fixes, usability improvements and new features. It's now more compact, got more colors and better formatting.
