Pre-release notes: https://getkirby.com/releases/5

Changelog since 5.0.0-beta.1

✨ Enhancements

• Allow disable all page buttons via buttons: false
• New way to set the default storage instance for all models #6867
  • New App::storage(ModelWithContent $model) method
  • New storage component, which can be overwritten in plugins or the app instance setup.
  • The storage component is now used in all Models to create the default storage instance

  // How to create a new default storage instance component: 
  use Kirby\Cms\App;
  use Kirby\Cms\ModelWithContent;
  use Kirby\Content\PlainTextStorage;
  
  class MyCustomStorageClass extends PlainTextStorage
  {
  
  }
  
  // on app initialisation
  $kirby = new App([
    'components' => [
      'storage' => function (App $kirby, ModelWithContent $model) {
          return MyCustomStorageClass($model);
      ]
    ]  
  ]);
  
  // in a plugin
  App::plugin('my/storage', [
    'components' => [
      'storage' => function (App $kirby, ModelWithContent $model) {
          return MyCustomStorageClass($model);
      ]
    ]  
  ]);

• New $app->role() method that works like $app->user() to return a specific role or the role of the current user. #6874
• View buttons: i18n + query support, component name from key
  • Panel\Ui\Button: i18n support for text and title props
  • Panel\Ui\Buttons\ViewButtons and Panel\Ui\Buttons\ViewButton have new optional $model property
  • Kirby query support in Panel\Ui\Buttons\ViewButton for link, dialog, drawer, icon, text, theme props
  • Deriving the Vue component name from key:

    buttons:
      - preview
      retour:
        text: Retour

    This first looks up k-retour-view-button and falls back to k-view-button.
• Writer: nodes with inline: true in their button definition are displayed as inline buttons in toolbar (instead inside the dropdown) #6902
• New this.$helper.object.filter(object, predicate). #6902
• Page status button uses custom status labels for title #6911
• Plugin update status: passive theme for unknown plugin versions #6920
• System view: Plugin table features two distinct columns for the license type and status #6896
• LicenseStatus supports link, dialog and drawer props #6896

🚨 Breaking changes

• The Str::ucfirst() method no longer lowercases all but the first letter of the text, it only capitalizes the first letter. #6860

• <k-dialog>: Removed data-has-footer attribute
• <k-toggles-input>: Removed data-disabled attribute
• <k-writer-input>: Removed data-toolbar-inline attribute
• <k-bubble>: Removed data-has-text attribute
• <k-header>: Removed data-has-buttons attribute
• <k-tag>: Removed data-has-image and data-has-toggle attributes
• <k-tree>: Removed data-has-subtree attribute
• required: true on checkbox and toggle fields now enforces that these fields need to be checked/toggles (active state)
