-
-
-### Features
-
-* **express:** set up MIDDLEWARE_CONTEXT for request object in constructor ([e086e7b](https://github.com/strongloop/loopback-next/commit/e086e7bcf64a8aa651490784502adfe787156eef))

-# [9.0.0](https://github.com/strongloop/loopback-next/compare/@loopback/rest@8.0.0...@loopback/rest@9.0.0) (2020-11-05)
-
-
-### Bug Fixes
-
-* allow array query parameter for a single value ([08c4a1a](https://github.com/strongloop/loopback-next/commit/08c4a1a2046db606fa28b17410c19bf609abddb6))
-
-
-### Code Refactoring
-
-* **rest:** use dynamic value provider for actions ([3a32290](https://github.com/strongloop/loopback-next/commit/3a322902bd47f664efcb0c14c4de96133301672c))
-
-
-### Features

-
-
-### BREAKING CHANGES
-
-* **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/strongloop/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/strongloop/loopback-next/commit/9916cfd4449a870f7a3378e2e674957aed7c1626))

-
-
-### 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',
-}
-```

-
-
-### 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 object.  Calls to getApiSpec function must switch from
-the old style to new style as follows:
-
-1. Old style
-
-```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/strongloop/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/strongloop/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.

-### BREAKING CHANGES
-
-* **context:** `ctx.get()` and `ctx.getSync()` require a type now.
-See the example below for upgrade instructions:
-
-```diff
-- const c: MyController = await ctx.get('MyController');
-+ const c = await ctx.get<MyController>('MyController');
-```
-
-`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`.
