Blacklight 2.8 released!
11 Apr 2011
List of fixes and enhancements for this version can be found here.
Highlights include:
- upgrade to work with Rails 2.3.11
- improved add/remove bookmarks and selected items UI
- improved JS behavior architecture, more easily over-rideable and re-useable in your local app
- built-in unAPI support
- changed email/SMS architecture for easier per-format-type local over-riding
Also, the GitHub compare view of this release vs. our last release is located athttp://github.com/projectblacklight/blacklight/compare/v2.7.0...v2.8.0
NOTE WELL: After upgrading from a former version, you will need to add these two lines to config/blacklight_config.rb (or any other initializer) in order to maintain email/SMS functionality:
# Email uses the semantic fields mappings below to generate the body
# of an email.
SolrDocument.use_extension( Blacklight::Solr::Document::Email )
# SMS uses the semantic fiels mappings below to generate the body of
# an SMS email.
SolrDocument.use_extension( Blacklight::Solr::Document::Sms )
