Breaking changes in v0.3.0

Version 0.3.0 introduced all new context decorators like @body, @params and @context. Previously to v0.3.0 every controller action was passed a context argument, this is not the case anymore. The dependency injection system cares now about which context interfaces are necessary for a controller action. Thus, you've to use the new decorators for accessing things like the request body. The easiest way to upgrade to v0.3.0 is to use the @context decorator, which is the same, then the context argument used in v0.2.0.

Check out the controller documentation for more information.
