Loopback: Simple example API broken in alpha.3

[rogersnm]

The removal of the current-context API in alpha.3 appears to have broken something. This can be seen with a simple example app:

mkdir api
cd api
slc loopback

With options:

• kind of application: api-server (A LoopBack API server with local User auth)
• loopback version: 3.x

After install, running node . and executing GET /api/Users returns:

Unhandled error for request GET /api/Users: Error: remoting.context option was removed in version 3.0. See https://docs.strongloop.com/display/APIC/Using%20current%20context for more details.

on the first execution, subsequent executions then return:

Following the 3.0-RELEASE-NOTES and adding loopback-context does nothing to resolve the issue or change the behaviour. The same configuration with alpha.1 and alpha.2 works fine.

The slc loopback installer also makes no note that 3.x is still in alpha.

Should be fixed with latest [email protected] release. Could you please try again and let me know if it works for you? Thanks!

The instructions are here: https://docs.strongloop.com/display/APIC/Using+current+context#Usingcurrentcontext-Fixingdeprecationwarnings

I have opened a PR to add upgrading instructions to release notes, see https://github.com/strongloop/loopback/pull/2721

I am closing this issue as fixed. @rogersnm feel free to reopen if the problem still persists.
