v2 Requirements

[jchannon]

As @thecodejunkie has put in his blog we have plans for v2 and we need to document what we want and need to achieve this goal. This will then lead onto CoreCLR #1959 compatibility

NEED!

• Unified configuration API Migrate existing configuration endpoints to the unified configuration API #2000
• Replace internal TPL async code to async\await Using async/await #2105
• Instance based AppDomainAssemblyTypeScanner [WIP] Type catalog (Making type scanning instance based) #1846
• Make all route handlers async by default Legacy nancy module #2199

what about an internal deadlock fencing algorithm?

what about an internal deadlock fencing algorithm?

What does this even mean? 😕

I think this is a bit of a moving target which depends on the number of hours we get to put in. A couple of things that pops into mind are

• Swap out the default JSON serializer [WIP] Simple json spike #2163
• Overhaul model-binding (there are some kinks in here and I'd like to cache reflection stuff to boost performance)
• Look at providing a new route declaration syntax
• Implement something like IModuleEnricher concept to give you better control about instantiating various NancyModule implementations
• More documentations, samples, guides
• Look at @khellang 's spike for a new boostrapper
• Overhaul registrations (IApplicationRegistrations, IRequestRegistrations etc)
• TinyIoC changes (child container + PCL) that @grumpydev has flagged
• Improve the Diagnostics Dashboard (new UI + more info in there)
• Rewrite tracing

There are some of the things that I've had on my radar for a long time and a lot of them should go into a new major, instead of a minor

are we thinking of keeping the documentation in github wiki? I am thinking readthedocs or readme.io would be of good UX benefits especially that the content can be driven from the same source as now ?

[phillip-haydon]

We have no plans to move the documentation from the wiki. I personally don't see any reason to move away from it.

Should this be closed or updated?
