Upgrade Notes
Please note that #2137 provided some HTML changes where previous <a> elements were updated to <button> elements. This change was done to improve accessibility and usability and we are considering it an enhancements. Blacklight adopters should be aware of this as to look at local styling that may need to be modified.
#2134 updated how icons are styled in Blacklight. We are now using a fill based svg approach. This is consistent with how many icon libraries are now providing and styling their icons. It should also enable downstream users of Blacklight to more easily style icons.
#2145 Adds jump links to Blacklight, but also sets search bar autofocus to off. This can be reenabled but is left off for accessibility.
#2157 Adds enhanced accessibility features for svg icons used in Blacklight and downstream applications/engines.

Version 6.20.0
New features
Add custom routing constraints by setting:
Blacklight::Engine.config.routes.identifier_constraint = %r{.+}This must be set before config/routes.rb is loaded, so config/initializers/blacklight.rb is a great place for this.
Version 7.0.1
Bug Fixes
- Ensure the template generator works
v6.19.2
Version 7.0.0
New features
- Bootstrap 4
- Rails 5.2 support
- Webpacker support
- JSON-API support
- Solr 7.2 support
- Dynamic solr schema by default
- Additive configuration #1767
- Defined properties in the
SolrDocumentclass #1659
If you previously had a number of methods in yourSolrDocumentclass like this:
def title
self['title_ssim'].first
end
You can now simplify these by replacing with:
include Blacklight::Solr::Document
attribute :title, Blacklight::Types::String, 'title_tesim'
Bug fixes
- if the application name isn't defined in the current language, fallback to the application_name in the default language. #1724
Upgrading
Add include Blacklight::DefaultComponentConfiguration to your catalog controller or
configure_blacklight do |config|
config.add_results_document_tool(:bookmark, partial: 'bookmark_control', if: :render_bookmarks_control?)
config.add_results_collection_tool(:sort_widget)
config.add_results_collection_tool(:per_page_widget)
config.add_results_collection_tool(:view_type_group)
config.add_show_tools_partial(:bookmark, partial: 'bookmark_control', if: :render_bookmarks_control?)
config.add_show_tools_partial(:email, callback: :email_action, validator: :validate_email_params)
config.add_show_tools_partial(:sms, if: :render_sms_action?, callback: :sms_action, validator: :validate_sms_params)
config.add_show_tools_partial(:citation)
config.add_nav_action(:bookmark, partial: 'blacklight/nav/bookmark', if: :render_bookmarks_control?)
config.add_nav_action(:search_history, partial: 'blacklight/nav/search_history')
endDocuments are now returned using JSON-API at /catalog/:id.json This only returns fields that are configured using add_show_field. If you want to receive the full Solr document (all fields) in the format they were in in Blacklight 6, you must add the configuration: config.raw_endpoint.enabled = true and the endpoint will be changed to /catalog/:id/raw.json
If you are using Blacklight::Solr::Response directly, note that the options to the initializer have changed. Where previously it took :solr_document_model it now takes a :blacklight_config option.
