v3.0.0

Version 3.0.0 of Marionette has arrived and contains many improvements over version 2.x but also some API Changes. Below is a list of the changes made to each component.

To help the community transition over we have released a v2 patch tool to assist the upgrade. [Marionette Patch Tool] (https://github.com/marionettejs/marionette-v3-compat)

View

• LayoutView + ItemView merge and rename to View.
• Marionette.View -> ViewMixin
• Added LayoutView shortcut methods such as showChildView.
• isDestroyed and isRendered made private with a public accessor method.
• Now set _isDestroyed to false by default
• Call Backbone.View with result of options (163188eeb8)
• CompositeView's renderChildren is now public.
• Renamed childEvents to childViewEvents.
• Removed passing view options as a function
• Renamed templateHelpers to templateContext
• Made sure before:render is triggered before emptying regions.
• Regions are not attached directly to the layout. Use getRegion to access the region or showChildView to show a View within it.
• Allowed CompositeView to attach to existing HTML with template:false
• Added hasRegion for layouts
• Enabled passing preventDestroy to region.empty.
• View now removes its element before destroying child regions. There was an option to turn it on, but now it’s available by default. This helps remove all of the synchronous paints going up the tree.

CollectionView

• The childView attribute now accepts a function
• getChildView was removed
• emptyView now accepts a function as an arg.
• Proxied events do not append “this” as an argument
• Removed the apply:filter event from CollectionView.
• removeChildView now returns the removed view.

Regions

• Fixed inconsistency in addRegion, it now behaves like addRegions and adds the region to internal this.regions.
• View can replace regions's el.
• Replaced region manager with region-mixin.
• Removed static buildRegion
• Removed swap events.

Application

• Introduced region to Application (rootRegion)
• Removed regions
• Removed Initializers and Finalizers Callbacks
