v1.17.0

Postgres Update

This version contains the first rewrite of the database modules to allow for running multiple connection configurations in parallel instead of relying on a global configuration. This refactor will eventually make it to the other database modules in future versions.

• The lapis.db.postgres module is now a proxy object for the "default" connection configuration
• Add configure function to lapis.db.postgres to define a new connection configuration. (Returns a compatible db object)
• Add logger field to db object. The db object will use that logger for any logging actions (queries, connections). Defaults to the module lapis.logger
• Add db_connection logger function to lapis.logger. The default implementation is empty and is designed to be overridden.
• Postgres connection now emits logging.db_connection(db, pgmoon, success, err) so you can add metrics on connections as you see fit
• Removed the pgmoon_conn performance fields, they were unreliable given that multiple connections could be created in a single request
• Add explicit disconnect and connect functions to the db module. The connection configuration can automatically reconnect if the connection has been disconnected.
• Note: The entire lapis.db.postgres module has mostly been rewritten, if you were relying on undocumented exports for custom behavior you should review your code before deploying

Other additions

• Added timer_at to lapis.nginx, a safe wrapper around ngx.timer.at that runs callbacks under pcall, bubbles errors, and guarantees after_dispatch is called to clean up any database connections
• After dispatch callbacks are removed after running to prevent double running if manually called
• lapis.http defaults to socket.http unless the cqueues is explicitly running (previously it would try to load lua-http)
• params_shape accepts label = false, letting you hide the automatic field: prefix when you want bare error strings or custom labels.
• Add support for dot syntax in default Nginx config template syntax to access fields of tables, eg. ${{postgres.host}}

Fixes

• Fix a bug where a nested preload could try to load relations on a basic value type that was returned by a relation

CLI

• Top level lapis command supports a --dir flag (requires luafilesystem), so you can run lapis from outside the project root
• Add lapis mcp shortcut for the lapis-mcp package
• When using lapis generate migration the name of the generated migration is now printed to stdout
