v1.5.0

v1.5.0 major changes:

• A HTTP 405 "Method Not Allowed" will be returned when the method does not match for the route. This is a change from existing behaviour, where a 404 is returned instead. This behaviour, and the error message, can be customized by setting the MethodNotAllowed property of a *Router instance.
• Walk will now walk all attached sub-routers

v1.3.0

Summary

• Capture groups in regular expressions - e.g. (pattern|thing) vs (?:pattern|thing) are have not been supported. We now fail fast (panic on startup) if we detect any routes with a capturing group. See #200 for discussion.

v1.1 "Long Overdue"

We're now tagging releases with SemVer, something that was long overdue. gorilla/mux has strict API compatibility guarantees, excepting any security issues, but we understand that being able to vendor specific versions is a useful feature.

Minor breaking changes (i.e. regex functionality) will be treated as minor releases.

We also strongly recommend that you stay up to date: although this project has not had any security issues to date, back-porting security patches across multiple releases (v1.1.1, v1.2.1, etc.) is not maintianable for us.
