This commmit adds the runtime options
- `allowProtoPropertiesByDefault` (boolean, default: false) and
- `allowProtoMethodsByDefault` (boolean, default: false)`
which can be used to allow access to prototype properties and
functions in general.
Specific properties and methods can still be disabled from access
via `allowedProtoProperties` and `allowedProtoMethods` by
setting the corresponding values to false.
The methods `constructor`, `__defineGetter__`, `__defineSetter__`, `__lookupGetter__`
and the property `__proto__` will be disabled, even if the allow...ByDefault-options
are set to true. In order to allow access to those properties and methods, they have
to be explicitly set to true in the 'allowedProto...'-options.
A warning is logged when the a proto-access it attempted and denied
by default (i.e. if no option is set by the user to make the access
decision explicit)
Disallow access to prototype properties and methods by default.
Access to properties is always checked via
`Object.prototype.hasOwnProperty.call(parent, propertyName)`.
New runtime options:
- **allowedProtoMethods**: a string-to-boolean map of property-names that are allowed if they are methods of the parent object.
- **allowedProtoProperties**: a string-to-boolean map of property-names that are allowed if they are properties but not methods of the parent object.
```js
const template = handlebars.compile('{{aString.trim}}')
const result = template({ aString: ' abc ' })
// result is empty, because trim is defined at String prototype
```
```js
const template = handlebars.compile('{{aString.trim}}')
const result = template({ aString: ' abc ' }, {
allowedProtoMethods: {
trim: true
}
})
// result = 'abc'
```
Implementation details: The method now "container.lookupProperty"
handles the prototype-checks and the white-lists. It is used in
- JavaScriptCompiler#nameLookup
- The "lookup"-helper (passed to all helpers as "options.lookupProperty")
- The "lookup" function at the container, which is used for recursive lookups in "compat" mode
Compatibility:
- **Old precompiled templates work with new runtimes**: The "options.lookupPropery"-function is passed to the helper by a wrapper, not by the compiled templated.
- **New templates work with old runtimes**: The template contains a function that is used as fallback if the "lookupProperty"-function cannot be found at the container. However, the runtime-options "allowedProtoProperties" and "allowedProtoMethods" only work with the newest runtime.
BREAKING CHANGE:
- access to prototype properties is forbidden completely by default
- I don't think it makes much sense. In some cases,
it is more readable to wrap property access in quotes,
some times not, but there is no universal rule
for that.
- a promises "catch"-function should not be wrapped, but it has to
be, if "allow-keywords" is set to false
- an "if"-helper should be wrapped, but it is not allowed to be
if "allow-keywords" is set to true (default).
- move dtslint (checkTypes) away from Gruntfile.js
(as it disturbs debugging `grunt`)
and call it directly as npm-script in travis-ci
- re-group task definition in Gruntfile.js
- use a multi-job travis build to
run linting, format, dtslint and tests
in parallel
- run only "npm test" on appveyor
- rename Grunt-tasks for be more descriptive
- SAUCE_USERNAME is not a secret variable anymore
it can be easily guessed anyway and the
[secure] value messes up with a lot of the
log output
- linting on commit disable during transition
- add prettier to do formatting
- add eslint-config-prettier to
disable rules conflicting with prettier
- remove eslint from grunt workflow
- use lint-stage to lint and format
on precommit
- use eslint and prettier in travis directly
- remove rules that are already part of
the "recommended" ruleset
That rational is that eslint and prettier should be run in
Travis-CI, on commit and as IDE integration (highlighting
errors directlry). They don't need to be run along with
test-cases. Getting linting errors when running the tests
because of missing semicolons is just annoying, but doesn't
help the overall code-quality.
Reintroduce "merge" function, no called "mergeIfNeeded", that only creates a new partials
object if both "env.partials" and "options.partials" are set.
