CFWheels 2.0 Released

Ok, it’s been a while, but finally, CFWheels 2.0 has gone gold!

  1. Direct Download: Download zip
  2. Commandbox quick install : install cfwheels (Just downloads and unzips)
  3. Commandbox install wizard via CFWheels CLI (with url rewriting included):  wheels new (make sure your version of the CLI is up to date with _install cfwheels-cli_)

Make sure to check the “Breaking Changes” section, and please report any bugs. Needless to say, this has been a massive undertaking with over 1000 commits, and over a year in the making. The core team wishes to thank all the many contributors, testers, and well, just users of the framework. We think we’re in a pretty strong place to move forward with loads more exciting things in the future. For a comprehensive list of changes, check the Changelog, but for a quick summary:

  1. New RESTful routing
  2. New Database migration system
  3. New automatically generating internal documentation
  4. New Plugin distribution system via CLI and Forgebox
  5. Better commandbox integration and CLI support
  6. Integrated CSRF Protection
  7. Vastly improved Test suite
  8. A complete rewrite of the core in cfscript, with javadoc style commenting
  9. And loads more…
