Flask-restless-zx

-------------

Released on January 16, 2013.

- Removed ability to provide a :class:`~sqlalchemy.orm.session.Session` class
when initializing :class:`APIManager`; provide an instance of the class
instead.
- Changes some dynamically loaded relationships used for testing and in
examples to be many-to-one instead of the incorrect one-to-many. Versions of
SQLAlchemy after 0.8.0b2 raise an exception when the latter is used.
- 105: added ability to set a list of related model instances on a model.
- 107: server responds with an error code when a :http:method:`patch` or
:http:method:`post` request specifies a field which does not exist on the
model.
- 108: dynamically loaded relationships should now be rendered correctly by
the :func:`views._to_dict` function regardless of whether they are a list or
a single object.
- 109: use `sphinxcontrib-issuetracker`_ to render links to GitHub issues in
documentation.
- 110: enable ``results_per_page`` query parameter for clients, and added
``max_results_per_page`` keyword argument to :meth:`APIManager.create_api`.
- 114: fix bug where string representations of integers were converted to
integers.
- 117: allow adding related instances on :http:method:`patch` requests for
one-to-one relationships.
- 123: :http:method:`patch` requests to instances which do not exist result in
a :http:statuscode:`404` response.
