+  ([3a32290](https://github.com/loopbackio/loopback-next/commit/3a322902bd47f664efcb0c14c4de96133301672c))

+
+- **rest:** Message printed by REST LogError action changed from
+  `Unhandled error` to `Request failed`. Message pattern rules (e.g. alerting
+  rules) based on this pattern need to be updated accordingly.
+- **rest:** If you use one of the built-in action providers as the base class,
+  this commit will break you as the signature of the base class has changed.
+  Otherwise the code should be backward compatible for existing applications.

+# [8.0.0](https://github.com/loopbackio/loopback-next/compare/@loopback/rest@7.0.1...@loopback/rest@8.0.0) (2020-10-07)
+
+### Features
+
+- **context:** introduce new binding scopes
+  ([9916cfd](https://github.com/loopbackio/loopback-next/commit/9916cfd4449a870f7a3378e2e674957aed7c1626))

+  ([aabd6e6](https://github.com/loopbackio/loopback-next/commit/aabd6e62a11d5e10ff2256ec664a923041e27ce0))
+
+### BREAKING CHANGES
+
+- openapi3-ts@2.x has a stricter typing for `type` and `format` properties as
+  union types with a known list of values.
+
+We now either have to explicitly type the schema as `SchemaObject` or cast the
+`type` to `SchemaObject['type'], for example:
+
+```ts
+import {SchemaObject} from '@loopback/openapi-v3';
+
+const schemaDef1 = {
+  type: 'number' as const; // cast the type to be 'number' from 'string'
+};
+
+// Use the explicit `SchemaObject` to enforce inference
+const schemaDef2: SchemaObject = {
+  type: 'number' as const;
+};
+```
+
+It also applies to OpenAPI parameter objects:
+
+```ts
+import {ParameterObject} from '@loopback/openapi-v3';
+
+const paramDef1 = {
+  type: 'number' as const, // cast the type to be 'number' from 'string'
+  name: 'limit',
+  in: 'query',
+};
+
+// Use the explicit `ParameterObject` to enforce inference
+const paramDef2: ParameterObject = {
+  type: 'number',
+  name: 'limit',
+  in: 'query',
+};
+```

+  ([50448cb](https://github.com/loopbackio/loopback-next/commit/50448cb215cc94b8bd2459d7f9487aa03149fe3d))
+
+### BREAKING CHANGES
+
+- components no longer install core framework packages as their own
+  dependencies, they use the framework packages provided by the target
+  application instead.
+
+If you are getting `npm install` errors after upgrade, then make sure your
+project lists all dependencies required by the extensions you are using.

+
+### BREAKING CHANGES
+
+- **rest:** Api specifications are now emitted as a Promise instead of a value

+
+```ts
+function() {
+  // ...
+  const spec = restApp.restServer.getApiSpec();
+  // ...
+}
+```
+
+2. New style
+
+```ts
+async function() {
+  // ...
+  const spec = await restApp.restServer.getApiSpec();
+  // ...
+}
+```
+
+- **rest:** `validateRequestBody` is now an async function to allow asynchronous
+  validations by custom Ajv keywords and formats. See
+  https://ajv.js.org/#asynchronous-validation for more details.
+- Node.js v8.x is now end of life. Please upgrade to version 10 and above. See
+  https://nodejs.org/en/about/releases.

+# [2.0.0](https://github.com/loopbackio/loopback-next/compare/@loopback/rest@1.26.1...@loopback/rest@2.0.0) (2020-02-06)
+
+### Bug Fixes
+
+- suport complex objects for query params in api explorer
+  ([a4ef640](https://github.com/loopbackio/loopback-next/commit/a4ef64037a80d1ff7df37ba7912909a1bfcdbf51))
+
+### BREAKING CHANGES
+
+- This fix has modified the api definitions described by the decorator
+  'param.query.object', to support Open-API's `url-encoded` definition for json
+  query parameters.
+
+Previously, such parameters were described with `exploded: true` and
+`style: deepObject`, i.e exploded encoding, which turned out to be problematic
+as explained and discussed in,
+https://github.com/swagger-api/swagger-js/issues/1385 and
+https://github.com/OAI/OpenAPI-Specification/issues/1706
+
+```json
+  {
+    "in": "query",
+    "style": "deepObject"
+    "explode": "true",
+    "schema": {}
+  }
+```
+
+Exploded encoding worked for simple json objects as below but not for complex
+objects.
+
+```
+   http://localhost:3000/todos?filter[limit]=2
+```
+
+To address these issues with exploded queries, this fix switches definition of
+json query params from the `exploded`, `deep-object` style to the `url-encoded`
+style definition in Open-API spec.
+
+LoopBack already supports receiving url-encoded payload for json query
+parameters.
+
+For instance, to filter api results from the GET '/todo-list' endpoint in the
+todo-list example with a specific relation, { "include": [ { "relation": "todo"
+} ] }, the following url-encoded query parameter can be used,
+
+```
+   http://localhost:3000/todos?filter=%7B%22include%22%3A%5B%7B%22relation%22%3A%22todoList%22%7D%5D%7D
+```
+
+The above was possible because the coercion behavior in LoopBack performed json
+parsing for `deep object` style json query params before this fix. This fix has
+modified that behavior by removing json parsing. Since the `exploded`
+`deep-object` definition has been removed from the `param.query.object`
+decorator, this new behaviour remains just an internal source code aspect as of
+now.
+
+In effect, this fix only modifies the open api definitions generated from
+LoopBack APIs. The 'style' and 'explode' fields are removed and the 'schema'
+field is moved under 'content[application/json]'. This is the definition that
+supports url-encoding as per Open-API spec.
+
+```json
+  {
+    "in": "query"
+    "content": {
+      "application/json": {
+        "schema": {}
+      }
+    }
+  }
+```
+
+Certain client libraries (like swagger-ui or LoopBack's api explorer) necessiate
+using Open-API's `url-encoded` style definition for json query params to support
+"sending" url-encoded payload.
+
+All consumers of LoopBack APIs may need to regenerate api definitions, if their
+client libraries require them to do so for url-encoding.
+
+Otherwise there wouldn't be any significant impact on API consumers.
+
+To preserve compatibility with existing REST API clients, this change is
+backward compatible. All exploded queries like `?filter[limit]=1` will continue
+to work for json query params, despite the fact that they are described
+differently in the OpenAPI spec.
+
+Existing api clients will continue to work after an upgrade.
+
+The signature of the 'param.query.object' decorator has not changed.
+
+There is no code changes required in the LoopBack APIs after upgrading to this
+fix. No method signatures or data structures are impacted.

+
+`isPromise` was renamed to `isPromiseLike` and acts as a type guard for
+`PromiseLike`, not `Promise`. When upgrading affected code, you need to
+determine whether the code was accepting any Promise implementation (i.e.
+`PromiseLike`) or only native Promises. In the former case, you should use
+`isPromiseLike` and potentially convert the userland Promise instance to a
+native Promise via `Promise.resolve(promiseLike)`. In the latter case, you can
+replace `isPromise(p)` with `p instanceof Promise`.
