Any deprecations introduced now will continue to +have consistent behavior until their removal in 6.0.0. There is no scheduled +date for 6.0.0 at this time. + +Upgrading to 5.1.0 +------------------ + +You can use composer to upgrade to CakePHP 5.1.0:: + + php composer.phar require --update-with-dependencies "cakephp/cakephp:5.1.*" + +Deprecation Warnings +-------------------- + +5.1 introduces a few deprecations. All of these features will continue for the +duration of 5.x but will be removed in 6.0. See the `migration guide +`_. + +What's new in 5.1.0? +-------------------- + +The `migration guide +`_ has +a complete list of what's new in 5.1.0. We recommend you give that page a read +when upgrading. A few highlights from 5.1.0 are: + +- ``RedisEngine`` now supports TLS connections. +- ``bin/cake plugin list`` has been added to list plugin metadata. +- Optional ``Command`` arguments can now have a ``default`` value. +- ``BannerHelper`` was added. This command helper can format text as a banner + with a coloured background and padding. +- Components can now use the DI container to have dependencies resolved and + provided as constructor parameters just like Controllers and Commands do. +- The ``toString``, ``toInt``, ``toBool``, ``toDate``, and ``toDateTime`` + functions were added. They give you a typesafe way to cast request data or + other input and return ``null`` when conversion fails. +- ``pathCombine()`` was added to help build paths without worrying about + duplicate and trailing slashes. +- A new ``events`` hook was added to the ``BaseApplication`` as well as the + ``BasePlugin`` class. +- Support for ``point``, ``linestring``, ``polygon`` and ``geometry`` types were + added to the Database package. +- ``SelectQuery::intersect()`` and ``SelectQuery::intersectAll()`` were added. +- ``Client`` now emits ``HttpClient.beforeSend`` and ``HttpClient.afterSend`` + events when requests are sent. +- ``Http\Server`` now emits ``Server.terminate`` event to run logic after the + response has been sent in fastcgi environments. In other environments the + ``Server.terminate`` event runs *before* the response has been sent. +- View cells now emit events around their actions ``Cell.beforeAction`` and + ``Cell.afterAction``. +- ``Validation::enum()``, ``Validator::enum()``, ``Validation::enumOnly()``, and + ``Validation::enumExcept()`` were added to further simplify validating backed + enum values. +- ``HtmlHelper`` can now create a meta tag with the CSRF token in it. + +Contributors to 5.1.0 +--------------------- + +Thank you to all the contributors that helped make 5.1 happen: + +* Adam Halfar +* ADmad +* Alejandro Ibarra +* Fernando Herrero +* Frank de Graaf (Phally) +* Jamison Bryant +* J.Brabec +* Jozef Grencik +* Kevin Pfeifer +* KrzysiekNDS +* Mark Scherer +* Mark Story +* Maximilian Ruta +* ndm2 +* Nicos Panayides +* othercorey +* Robert Pustułka + +As always, a huge thanks to all the community members that helped make this +release happen by reporting issues and sending pull requests. 5.1.0 is a large +release and would not have been possible without the community support and +feedback. + +What's Next +----------- + +With 5.1.0 shipped, future feature work will continue on `5.next` and eventually +form 5.2.0. Bugfixes for 5.1 will be done in the `5.x` branch, and 5.0 will +receive security fixes until the release of 5.3. + +The roadmap for 5.x is still under development. We're interested in making the +upgrade from 5.0 to 5.1 a smooth one, and would appreciate any feedback you +have on upgrade difficulties.
