    August 14, 2020

    2.3.0 - August 14, 2020

      setting.
    • Strip as parameter when signing in through the back door.
    • ✂ Remove broken autoload for deprecated password strategies.

    • ✂ Remove unnecessary unsafe interpolation in erb templates.

  • v2.2.0 Changes

    July 09, 2020

    ➕ Added

    • ➕ Add an Argon2 password strategy

    🛠 Fixed

    • 💅 Use find_by style for finders, improves neo4j support
    • 🚅 Provide explicit case sensitivity option for email uniqueness, avoid Rails deprecation warning.

  • v2.1.0 Changes

    December 19, 2019

    ➕ Added

    • ➕ Add a parent_controller configuration option to specify the controller that Clearance's BaseController will inherit from. Defaults to a value of ApplicationController.
    • Use the configured primary_key_type from the Active Record settings of the project including Clearance, if it is set, while generating migrations. For example, a setting of :uuid in a Rails app using Clearance will cause the clearance-generated migrations to use this for the users table id type.

    🛠 Fixed

    • ✂ Delete cookies correctly when a custom domain setting is being used.
    • Do not set the authorization cookie on requests which did not exercise the authorization code. Reduces the chances of leaving an auth cookie in a publicly cacheable page that didn't require authorization to access.

    🔄 Changed

    • ⚡️ Update the email_validator gem to a newer version embrace the more relaxed email validation options which it now defaults to.
    • When a password reset request is submitted without an email address, a flash alert is now provided. Previously this continued silently as though it had worked. We still proceed that way when there is an invalid (but present) value, so as not to reveal existent vs. non-existent emails in the database.

    ✂ Removed

    • ✂ Remove an unused route to passwords#create nested under users.
    • No longer include the (rarely used in practice) application layout as part of the views installer; but continue to provide some stock sign-in/out and flash partial code in the gem installation README output.

    🗄 Deprecated

    • Remove the existing deprecation notice around the rotate_csrf_on_sign_in setting, and make that setting default to true.

  • v2.0.0 Changes

    November 12, 2019

    ➕ Added

    • ➕ Add support for Rails version 6
    • 👍 Allow cookie_domain to be configured with a lambda for custom configuration
    • ➕ Add ability to configure BCrypt computational cost of hash calculation.
    • ➕ Add same_site configuration option for increased CSRF protection.

    🛠 Fixed

    • 🛠 Fix issue where invalid params could raise NoMethodError when updating and resetting passwords.
    • 🚅 The backdoor auth mechanism now supports scenarios where Rails.env has been configured via env variables other than RAILS_ENV (RACK_ENV for example).

    ✂ Removed

    • ✂ Removed support for Ruby versions older than 2.4
    • ✂ Removed support for Rails versions older than 5.0
    • ✂ Removed all deprecated code from Clearance 1.x

    🔄 Changed

    • Flash messages now use flash[:alert] rather than flash[:notice] as they were used as errors more often than notices.

  • v1.17.0 Changes

    April 11, 2019

    🔄 Changed

    • ⚡️ Update the HttpOnly cookie setting for the remember token to default to
      true, which prevents the value from being available to JavaScript.
    • ➕ Add configuration option to allow the auth backdoor to work in specified
      ✅ environments (defaults to test, development, ci).
