• v0.12.1 Changes

  • 🛠 Fix bug in unsetting of exclusive mode
  • 🆕 New incident report system for providing better debugging reports
  • ⏪ Revert BasicObject proxies for now... they are causing problems
  • String inspect that reveals bare object leaks
  • 🛠 Fix bug reporting proper task statuses
  • 🎉 Initial thread dumper support
  • ✂ Remove Celluloid#alive? as it cannot be called in any manner that will ever return anything but true, rendering it useless

• v0.12.0 Changes

  • Alternative async syntax: actor.async.method in lieu of actor.method! Original syntax still available but will be removed in Celluloid 1.0
  • Alternative future syntax: actor.future.method in lieu of future(:method)
  • All methods in the Celluloid module are now available on its singleton
  • The #join and #kill methods are no longer available on the actor proxy. Please use Celluloid::Actor.join(actor) and .kill(actor) instead.
  • Celluloid::Future#ready? can be used to query for future readiness
  • 🚚 Celluloid::Group constant removed. Please use Celluloid::SupervisionGroup
  • #monitor, #unmonitor, and #monitoring? provide unidirectional linking
  • 🔗 Linking is now performed via a SystemEvent
  • SystemEvents are no longer exceptions. Boo exceptions as flow control!
  • Celluloid::Mailbox#system_event eliminated and replaced with Mailbox#<< SystemEvents are now automatically high priority
  • The task_class class method can be used to override the class used for tasks, allowing different task implementations to be configured on an actor-by-actor-basis
  • Celluloid::TaskThread provides tasks backed by Threads instead of Fibers
  • ActorProxy is now a BasicObject
  • A bug prevented Celluloid subclasses from retaining custom mailboxes defined by use_mailbox. This is now fixed.
  • exclusive class method without arguments makes the whole actor exclusive

• v0.11.1 Changes

  • 'exclusive' class method marks methods as always exclusive and runs them outside of a Fiber (useful if you need more stack than Fibers provide)
  • Celluloid::PoolManager returns its own class when #class is called, instead of proxying to a cell/actor in the pool.
  • #receive now handles SystemEvents internally
  • Celluloid::Timers extracted into the timers gem, which Celluloid now uses for its own timers

• v0.11.0 Changes

  • 🚚 Celluloid::Application constant permanently removed
  • 🚚 Celluloid::Pool removed in favor of Celluloid.pool
  • Celluloid::Group renamed to Celluloid::SupervisionGroup, old name is still available and has not been deprecated
  • Celluloid::ThreadPool renamed to Celluloid::InternalPool to emphasize its internalness
  • 👌 Support for asynchronously calling private methods inside actors
  • Future is now an instance method on all actors
  • 🔊 Async call exception logs now contain the failed method
  • MyActor#async makes async calls for those who dislike the predicate syntax
  • 👻 abort can now accept a string instead of an exception object and will raise RuntimeError in the caller's context

• v0.10.0 Changes

  • Celluloid::Actor.current is now the de facto way to obtain the current actor
  • #terminate now uses system messages, making termination take priority over other pending methods
  • #terminate! provides asynchronous termination

• v0.9.1 Changes

  • Recurring timers with Celluloid#every(n) { ... }
  • Obtain UUIDs with Celluloid.uuid
  • Obtain the number of CPU cores available with Celluloid.cores
  • 0️⃣ Celluloid::Pool defaults to one actor per CPU core max by default

• v0.9.0 Changes

  • Celluloid::Pool supervises pools of actors
  • Graceful shutdown which calls #terminate on all actors
  • Celluloid::Actor.all returns all running actors
  • Celluloid#exclusive runs a high priority block which prevents other methods from executing
  • Celluloid.exception_handler { |ex| ... } defines a callback for notifying exceptions (for use with Airbrake, exception_notifier, etc.)

• v0.8.0 Changes

  • Celluloid::Application is now Celluloid::Group
  • Futures no longer use a thread unless created with a block
  • No more future thread-leaks! Future threads auto-terminate now
  • 📇 Rename Celluloid#async to Celluloid#defer
  • Celluloid#tasks now returns an array of tasks with a #status attribute
  • ⬇️ Reduce coupling between Celluloid and DCell. Breaks compatibility with earlier versions of DCell.
  • Celluloid::FSMs are no longer actors themselves
  • Benchmarks using benchmark_suite

• v0.7.2 Changes

  • ↪ Workaround fiber problems on JRuby 1.6.5.1 in addition to 1.6.5
  • 🛠 Fix class displayed when inspecting dead actors

• v0.7.1 Changes

  • More examples!
  • Cancel all pending tasks when actors crash
  • 🚦 Log all errors that occur during signaling failures
  • 👀 Work around thread-local issues on rbx (see 52325ecd)
