Ruby on Rails v6.1.0 Release Notes

Release Date: 2020-12-09 // over 3 years ago
  • 👍 Active Support

    ⏪ Ensure MemoryStore disables compression by default. Reverts behavior of
    🚅 MemoryStore to its prior rails 5.1 behavior.

    Max Gurewitz

    Calling iso8601 on negative durations retains the negative sign on individual
    digits instead of prepending it.

    This change is required so we can interoperate with PostgreSQL, which prefers
    negative signs for each component.

    📜 Compatibility with other iso8601 parsers which support leading negatives as well
    as negatives per component is still retained.

    Before:

    (-1.year - 1.day).iso8601
    # => "-P1Y1D"
    

    After:

    (-1.year - 1.day).iso8601
    # => "P-1Y-1D"

    Speed up ActiveSupport::SecurityUtils.fixed_length_secure_compare by using
    OpenSSL.fixed_length_secure_compare, if available.

    Nate Matykiewicz

    🔧 ActiveSupport::Cache::MemCacheStore now checks ENV["MEMCACHE_SERVERS"] before falling back to "localhost:11211" if configured without any addresses.

    config.cache\_store = :mem\_cache\_store# is now equivalent toconfig.cache\_store = :mem\_cache\_store, ENV["MEMCACHE\_SERVERS"] || "localhost:11211"# instead ofconfig.cache\_store = :mem\_cache\_store, "localhost:11211" # ignores ENV["MEMCACHE\_SERVERS"]
    

    Sam Bostock

    ActiveSupport::Subscriber#attach_to now accepts an inherit_all: argument. When set to true,
    it allows a subscriber to receive events for methods defined in the subscriber's ancestor class(es).

    class ActionControllerSubscriber \< ActiveSupport::Subscriberattach\_to :action\_controllerdef start\_processing(event)info "Processing by #{event.payload[:controller]}##{event.payload[:action]} as #{format}"enddef redirect\_to(event)info { "Redirected to #{event.payload[:location]}" }endend# We detach ActionControllerSubscriber from the :action\_controller namespace so that our CustomActionControllerSubscriber# can provide its own instrumentation for certain events in the namespaceActionControllerSubscriber.detach\_from(:action\_controller)class CustomActionControllerSubscriber \< ActionControllerSubscriberattach\_to :action\_controller, inherit\_all: truedef start\_processing(event)info "A custom response to start\_processing events"end# =\> CustomActionControllerSubscriber will process events for "start\_processing.action\_controller" notifications# using its own #start\_processing implementation, while retaining ActionControllerSubscriber's instrumentation# for "redirect\_to.action\_controller" notificationsend

    👌 Allow the digest class used to generate non-sensitive digests to be configured with config.active_support.hash_digest_class.

    👌 config.active_support.use_sha1_digests is deprecated in favour of config.active_support.hash_digest_class = ::Digest::SHA1.

    Dirkjan Bussink

    Fix bug to make memcached write_entry expire correctly with unless_exist

    Jye Lee

    ➕ Add ActiveSupport::Duration conversion methods

    in_seconds, in_minutes, in_hours, in_days, in_weeks, in_months, and in_years return the respective duration covered.

    Jason York

    🛠 Fixed issue in ActiveSupport::Cache::RedisCacheStore not passing options
    to read_multi causing fetch_multi to not work properly

    Rajesh Sharma

    🛠 Fixed issue in ActiveSupport::Cache::MemCacheStore which caused duplicate compression,
    and caused the provided compression_threshold to not be respected.

    Max Gurewitz

    Prevent RedisCacheStore and MemCacheStore from performing compression
    when reading entries written with raw: true.

    Max Gurewitz

    🚚 URI.parser is deprecated and will be removed in Rails 6.2. Use
    0️⃣ URI::DEFAULT_PARSER instead.

    Jean Boussier

    require_dependency has been documented to be obsolete in :zeitwerk
    🗄 mode. The method is not deprecated as such (yet), but applications are
    encouraged to not use it.

    💎 In :zeitwerk mode, semantics match Ruby's and you do not need to be
    defensive with load order. Just refer to classes and modules normally. If
    the constant name is dynamic, camelize if needed, and constantize.

    Xavier Noria

    Add 3rd person aliases of Symbol#start_with? and Symbol#end_with?.

    :foo.starts\_with?("f") # =\> true:foo.ends\_with?("o")# =\> true
    

    Ryuta Kamizono

    ➕ Add override of unary plus for ActiveSupport::Duration.

    + 1.second is now identical to +1.second to prevent errors
    👀 where a seemingly innocent change of formatting leads to a change in the code behavior.

    Before:

    +1.second.class# =\> ActiveSupport::Duration(+ 1.second).class# =\> Integer
    

    After:

    +1.second.class# =\> ActiveSupport::Duration(+ 1.second).class# =\> ActiveSupport::Duration
    

    🛠 Fixes #39079.

    Roman Kushnir

    ➕ Add subsec to ActiveSupport::TimeWithZone#inspect.

    Before:

    Time.at(1498099140).in_time_zone.inspect
    # => "Thu, 22 Jun 2017 02:39:00 UTC +00:00"
    Time.at(1498099140, 123456780, :nsec).in_time_zone.inspect
    # => "Thu, 22 Jun 2017 02:39:00 UTC +00:00"
    Time.at(1498099140 + Rational("1/3")).in_time_zone.inspect
    # => "Thu, 22 Jun 2017 02:39:00 UTC +00:00"
    

    After:

    Time.at(1498099140).in_time_zone.inspect
    # => "Thu, 22 Jun 2017 02:39:00.000000000 UTC +00:00"
    Time.at(1498099140, 123456780, :nsec).in_time_zone.inspect
    # => "Thu, 22 Jun 2017 02:39:00.123456780 UTC +00:00"
    Time.at(1498099140 + Rational("1/3")).in_time_zone.inspect
    # => "Thu, 22 Jun 2017 02:39:00.333333333 UTC +00:00"

    👍 Calling ActiveSupport::TaggedLogging#tagged without a block now returns a tagged logger.

    logger.tagged("BCX").info("Funky time!") # =\> [BCX] Funky time!
    

    Eugene Kenny

    💎 Align Range#cover? extension behavior with Ruby behavior for backwards ranges.

    💎 (1..10).cover?(5..3) now returns false, as it does in plain Ruby.

    ⚡️ Also update #include? and #=== behavior to match.

    Michael Groeneman

    ⚡️ Update to TZInfo v2.0.0.

    This changes the output of ActiveSupport::TimeZone.utc_to_local, but
    can be controlled with the
    ActiveSupport.utc_to_local_returns_utc_offset_times config.

    🆕 New Rails 6.1 apps have it enabled by default, existing apps can upgrade
    via the config in config/initializers/new_framework_defaults_6_1.rb

    See the utc_to_local_returns_utc_offset_times documentation for details.

    Phil Ross, Jared Beck

    ➕ Add Date and Time #yesterday? and #tomorrow? alongside #today?.

    Aliased to #prev_day? and #next_day? to match the existing #prev/next_day methods.

    Jatin Dhankhar

    ➕ Add Enumerable#pick to complement ActiveRecord::Relation#pick.

    Eugene Kenny

    [Breaking change] ActiveSupport::Callbacks#halted_callback_hook now receive a 2nd argument:

    ActiveSupport::Callbacks#halted_callback_hook now receive the name of the callback
    being halted as second argument.
    This change will allow you to differentiate which callbacks halted the chain
    and act accordingly.

    class Book \< ApplicationRecordbefore\_save { throw(:abort) }before\_create { throw(:abort) }def halted\_callback\_hook(filter, callback\_name)Rails.logger.info("Book couldn't be #{callback\_name}d")endBook.create # =\> "Book couldn't be created"book.save # =\> "Book couldn't be saved"end
    

    Edouard Chin

    👌 Support prepend with ActiveSupport::Concern.

    👍 Allows a module with extend ActiveSupport::Concern to be prepended.

    module Imposter
      extend ActiveSupport::Concern
    
      # Same as `included`, except only run when prepended.
      prepended do
      end
    end
    
    class Person
      prepend Imposter
    end
    

    Class methods are prepended to the base class, concerning is also
    ⚡️ updated: concerning :Imposter, prepend: true do.

    Jason Karns, Elia Schito

    🗄 Deprecate using Range#include? method to check the inclusion of a value
    in a date time range. It is recommended to use Range#cover? method
    instead of Range#include? to check the inclusion of a value
    in a date time range.

    Vishal Telangre

    👌 Support added for a round_mode parameter, in all number helpers. (See: BigDecimal::mode.)

    number\_to\_currency(1234567890.50, precision: 0, round\_mode: :half\_down) # =\> "$1,234,567,890"number\_to\_percentage(302.24398923423, precision: 5, round\_mode: :down) # =\> "302.24398%"number\_to\_rounded(389.32314, precision: 0, round\_mode: :ceil) # =\> "390"number\_to\_human\_size(483989, precision: 2, round\_mode: :up) # =\> "480 KB"number\_to\_human(489939, precision: 2, round\_mode: :floor) # =\> "480 Thousand"485000.to\_s(:human, precision: 2, round\_mode: :half\_even) # =\> "480 Thousand"
    

    Tom Lord

    Array#to_sentence no longer returns a frozen string.

    Before:

    ['one', 'two'].to_sentence.frozen?
    # => true
    

    After:

    ['one', 'two'].to_sentence.frozen?
    # => false
    

    Nicolas Dular

    👍 When an instance of ActiveSupport::Duration is converted to an iso8601 duration string, if weeks are mixed with date parts, the week part will be converted to days.
    📜 This keeps the parser and serializer on the same page.

    duration = ActiveSupport::Duration.build(1000000)# 1 week, 4 days, 13 hours, 46 minutes, and 40.0 secondsduration\_iso = duration.iso8601# P11DT13H46M40SActiveSupport::Duration.parse(duration\_iso)# 11 days, 13 hours, 46 minutes, and 40 secondsduration = ActiveSupport::Duration.build(604800)# 1 weekduration\_iso = duration.iso8601# P1WActiveSupport::Duration.parse(duration\_iso)# 1 week
    

    Abhishek Sarkar

    ➕ Add block support to ActiveSupport::Testing::TimeHelpers#travel_back.

    Tim Masliuchenko

    📇 Update ActiveSupport::Messages::Metadata#fresh? to work for cookies with expiry set when
    ActiveSupport.parse_json_times = true.

    Christian Gregg

    👌 Support symbolic links for content_path in ActiveSupport::EncryptedFile.

    Takumi Shotoku

    👌 Improve Range#===, Range#include?, and Range#cover? to work with beginless (startless)
    and endless range targets.

    Allen Hsu, Andrew Hodgkinson

    Don't use Process#clock_gettime(CLOCK_THREAD_CPUTIME_ID) on Solaris.

    Iain Beeston

    🏗 Prevent ActiveSupport::Duration.build(value) from creating instances of
    👍 ActiveSupport::Duration unless value is of type Numeric.

    ➕ Addresses the errant set of behaviours described in #37012 where
    👍 ActiveSupport::Duration comparisons would fail confusingly
    or return unexpected results when comparing durations built from instances of String.

    Before:

    small_duration_from_string = ActiveSupport::Duration.build('9')
    large_duration_from_string = ActiveSupport::Duration.build('100000000000000')
    small_duration_from_int = ActiveSupport::Duration.build(9)
    
    large_duration_from_string > small_duration_from_string
    # => false
    
    small_duration_from_string == small_duration_from_int
    # => false
    
    small_duration_from_int < large_duration_from_string
    # => ArgumentError (comparison of ActiveSupport::Duration::Scalar with ActiveSupport::Duration failed)
    
    large_duration_from_string > small_duration_from_int
    # => ArgumentError (comparison of String with ActiveSupport::Duration failed)
    

    After:

    small_duration_from_string = ActiveSupport::Duration.build('9')
    # => TypeError (can't build an ActiveSupport::Duration from a String)
    

    Alexei Emam

    ➕ Add ActiveSupport::Cache::Store#delete_multi method to delete multiple keys from the cache store.

    Peter Zhu

    👌 Support multiple arguments in HashWithIndifferentAccess for merge and update methods, to
    💎 follow Ruby 2.6 addition.

    Wojciech Wnętrzak

    Allow initializing thread_mattr_* attributes via :default option.

    class Scraper
      thread_mattr_reader :client, default: Api::Client.new
    end
    

    Guilherme Mansur

    ➕ Add compact_blank for those times when you want to remove #blank? values from
    an Enumerable (also compact_blank! on Hash, Array, ActionController::Parameters).

    Dana Sherson

    👉 Make ActiveSupport::Logger Fiber-safe.

    Use Fiber.current. __id__ in ActiveSupport::Logger#local_level= in order
    💎 to make log level local to Ruby Fibers in addition to Threads.

    Example:

    logger = ActiveSupport::Logger.new(STDOUT)
    logger.level = 1
    puts "Main is debug? #{logger.debug?}"
    
    Fiber.new {
      logger.local_level = 0
      puts "Thread is debug? #{logger.debug?}"
    }.resume
    
    puts "Main is debug? #{logger.debug?}"
    

    Before:

    Main is debug? false
    Thread is debug? true
    Main is debug? true
    

    After:

    Main is debug? false
    Thread is debug? true
    Main is debug? false
    

    🛠 Fixes #36752.

    Alexander Varnin

    👍 Allow the on_rotation proc used when decrypting/verifying a message to be
    passed at the constructor level.

    Before:

    crypt = ActiveSupport::MessageEncryptor.new('long_secret')
    crypt.decrypt_and_verify(encrypted_message, on_rotation: proc { ... })
    crypt.decrypt_and_verify(another_encrypted_message, on_rotation: proc { ... })
    

    After:

    crypt = ActiveSupport::MessageEncryptor.new('long_secret', on_rotation: proc { ... })
    crypt.decrypt_and_verify(encrypted_message)
    crypt.decrypt_and_verify(another_encrypted_message)
    

    Edouard Chin

    delegate_missing_to would raise a DelegationError if the object
    delegated to was nil. Now the allow_nil option has been added to enable
    the user to specify they want nil returned in this case.

    Matthew Tanous

    truncate would return the original string if it was too short to be truncated
    and a frozen string if it were long enough to be truncated. Now truncate will
    consistently return an unfrozen string regardless. This behavior is consistent
    with gsub and strip.

    Before:

    'foobar'.truncate(5).frozen?
    # => true
    'foobar'.truncate(6).frozen?
    # => false
    

    After:

    'foobar'.truncate(5).frozen?
    # => false
    'foobar'.truncate(6).frozen?
    # => false

    Active Model

    Pass in base instead of base_class to Error.human_attribute_name

    This is useful in cases where the human_attribute_name method depends
    on other attributes' values of the class under validation to derive what the
    attribute name should be.

    Filipe Sabella

    🗄 Deprecate marshalling load from legacy attributes format.

    Ryuta Kamizono

    *_previously_changed? accepts :from and :to keyword arguments like *_changed?.

    topic.update!(status: :archived)
    topic.status_previously_changed?(from: "active", to: "archived")
    # => true
    

    George Claghorn

    Raise FrozenError when trying to write attributes that aren't backed by the database on an object that is frozen:

    class Animal
      include ActiveModel::Attributes
      attribute :age
    end
    
    animal = Animal.new
    animal.freeze
    animal.age = 25 # => FrozenError, "can't modify a frozen Animal"
    

    Josh Brody

    Add *_previously_was attribute methods when dirty tracking. Example:

    pirate.update(catchphrase: "Ahoy!")
    pirate.previous_changes["catchphrase"] # => ["Thar She Blows!", "Ahoy!"]
    pirate.catchphrase_previously_was # => "Thar She Blows!"
    

    DHH

    Encapsulate each validation error as an Error object.

    The ActiveModel’s errors collection is now an array of these Error
    objects, instead of messages/details hash.

    For each of these Error object, its message and full_message methods
    are for generating error messages. Its details method would return error’s
    extra parameters, found in the original details hash.

    The change tries its best at maintaining backward compatibility, however
    some edge cases won’t be covered, like errors#first will return ActiveModel::Error and manipulating
    errors.messages and errors.details hashes directly will have no effect. Moving forward,
    please convert those direct manipulations to use provided API methods instead.

    🚀 The list of deprecated methods and their planned future behavioral changes at the next major release are:

    • errors#slice! will be removed.
    • errors#each with the key, value two-arguments block will stop working, while the error single-argument block would return Error object.
    • errors#values will be removed.
    • errors#keys will be removed.
    • errors#to_xml will be removed.
    • errors#to_h will be removed, and can be replaced with errors#to_hash.
    • Manipulating errors itself as a hash will have no effect (e.g. errors[:foo] = 'bar').
    • Manipulating the hash returned by errors#messages (e.g. errors.messages[:foo] = 'bar') will have no effect.
    • Manipulating the hash returned by errors#details (e.g. errors.details[:foo].clear) will have no effect.

    Sean Doyle

    Add connected_to_many API.

    This API allows applications to connect to multiple databases at once without switching all of them or implementing a deeply nested stack.

    Before:

    AnimalsRecord.connected_to(role: :reading) do
    MealsRecord.connected_to(role: :reading) do
    Dog.first # read from animals replica
    Dinner.first # read from meals replica
    Person.first # read from primary writer
    end
    end

    After:

    ActiveRecord::Base.connected_to_many([AnimalsRecord, MealsRecord], role: :reading) do
    Dog.first # read from animals replica
    Dinner.first # read from meals replica
    Person.first # read from primary writer
    end

    Eileen M. Uchitelle, John Crepezzi

    ➕ Add option to raise or log for ActiveRecord::StrictLoadingViolationError.

    ✅ Some applications may not want to raise an error in production if using strict_loading. This would allow an application to set strict loading to log for the production environment while still raising in development and test environments.

    Set config.active_record.action_on_strict_loading_violation to :log errors instead of raising.

    Eileen M. Uchitelle

    👍 Allow the inverse of a has_one association that was previously autosaved to be loaded.

    🛠 Fixes #34255.

    Steven Weber

    Optimise the length of index names for polymorphic references by using the reference name rather than the type and id column names.

    0️⃣ Because the default behaviour when adding an index with multiple columns is to use all column names in the index name, this could frequently lead to overly long index names for polymorphic references which would fail the migration if it exceeded the database limit.

    This change reduces the chance of that happening by using the reference name, e.g. index_my_table_on_my_reference.

    🛠 Fixes #38655.

    relation.create does no longer leak scope to class level querying methods
    in initialization block and callbacks.

    Before:

    This change allows connected_to to switch a role and/or shard for a single abstract class instead of all classes globally. Applications that want to use the new feature need to set config.active_record.legacy_connection_handling to false in their application configuration.

    Example usage:

    0️⃣ Given an application we have a User model that inherits from ApplicationRecord and a Dog model that inherits from AnimalsRecord. AnimalsRecord and ApplicationRecord have writing and reading connections as well as shard default, one, and two.

    ActiveRecord::Base.connected\_to(role: :reading) doUser.first # reads from default replicaDog.first # reads from default replicaAnimalsRecord.connected\_to(role: :writing, shard: :one) doUser.first # reads from default replicaDog.first # reads from shard one primaryendUser.first # reads from default replicaDog.first # reads from default replicaApplicationRecord.connected\_to(role: :writing, shard: :two) doUser.first # reads from shard two primaryDog.first # reads from default replicaendend

    ➕ Add support for PostgreSQL interval data type with conversion to
    👍 ActiveSupport::Duration when loading records from database and
    serialization to ISO 8601 formatted duration string on save.
    ➕ Add support to define a column in migrations and get it in a schema dump.
    👍 Optional column precision is supported.

    To use this in 6.1, you need to place the next string to your model file:

    attribute :duration, :interval
    

    🚀 To keep old behavior until 6.2 is released:

    attribute :duration, :string
    

    Example:

    create_table :events do |t|
      t.string :name
      t.interval :duration
    end
    
    class Event < ApplicationRecord
      attribute :duration, :interval
    end
    
    Event.create!(name: 'Rock Fest', duration: 2.days)
    Event.last.duration # => 2 days
    Event.last.duration.iso8601 # => "P2D"
    Event.new(duration: 'P1DT12H3S').duration # => 1 day, 12 hours, and 3 seconds
    Event.new(duration: '1 day') # Unknown value will be ignored and NULL will be written to database

    Disallow calling connected_to on subclasses of ActiveRecord::Base.

    Eileen M. Uchitelle, John Crepezzi

    Add support for horizontal sharding to connects_to and connected_to.

    Applications can now connect to multiple shards and switch between their shards in an application. Note that the shard swapping is still a manual process as this change does not include an API for automatic shard swapping.

    Usage:

    🔧 Given the following configuration:

    # config/database.ymlproduction: primary: database: my\_databaseprimary\_shard\_one: database: my\_database\_shard\_one
    

    Connect to multiple shards:

    class ApplicationRecord \< ActiveRecord::Baseself.abstract\_class = trueconnects\_to shards: {default: { writing: :primary },shard\_one: { writing: :primary\_shard\_one }}
    

    Swap between shards in your controller / model code:

    ActiveRecord::Base.connected\_to(shard: :shard\_one) do# Read from shard oneend
    

    👀 The horizontal sharding API also supports read replicas. See guides for more details.

    Store advisory locks on their own named connection.

    🔒 Previously advisory locks were taken out against a connection when a migration started. This works fine in single database applications but doesn't work well when migrations need to open new connections which results in the lock getting dropped.

    🔒 In order to fix this we are storing the advisory lock on a new connection with the connection specification name AdvisoryLockBase. The caveat is that we need to maintain at least 2 connections to a database while migrations are running in order to do this.

    Call while_preventing_writes directly from connected_to.

    In some cases application authors want to use the database switching middleware and make explicit calls with connected_to. It's possible for an app to turn off writes and not turn them back on by the time we call connected_to(role: :writing).

    This change allows apps to fix this by assuming if a role is writing we want to allow writes, except in the case it's explicitly turned off.

    👍 Remember that support for strings/symbols is only a convenient API. You can
    always pass a module object:

    helper UtilsHelper
    

    which is recommended because it is simple and direct. When a string/symbol

    0️⃣ Accept and default to base64_urlsafe CSRF tokens.

    Base64 strict-encoded CSRF tokens are not inherently websafe, which makes
    them difficult to deal with. For example, the common practice of sending
    💻 the CSRF token to a browser in a client-readable cookie does not work properly
    out of the box: the value has to be url-encoded and decoded to survive transport.

    Now, we generate Base64 urlsafe-encoded CSRF tokens, which are inherently safe
    to transport. Validation accepts both urlsafe tokens, and strict-encoded tokens
    for backwards compatibility.

    👌 Support rolling deploys for cookie serialization/encryption changes.

    ⚡️ In a distributed configuration like rolling update, users may observe
    🚀 both old and new instances during deployment. Users may be served by a
    🆕 new instance and then by an old instance.

    That means when the server changes cookies_serializer from :marshal
    to :hybrid or the server changes use_authenticated_cookie_encryption
    from false to true, users may lose their sessions if they access the
    🚀 server during deployment.

    ⬇️ We added fallbacks to downgrade the cookie format when necessary during
    🚀 deployment, ensuring compatibility on both old and new instances.

    🛠 Fix possible information leak / session hijacking vulnerability.

    The ActionDispatch::Session::MemcacheStore is still vulnerable given it requires the
    ⚡️ gem dalli to be updated as well.

    CVE-2019-16782.

    ✅ Include child session assertion count in ActionDispatch::IntegrationTest.

    IntegrationTest#open_session uses dup to create the new session, which
    meant it had its own copy of @assertions. This prevented the assertions
    from being correctly counted and reported.

    Child sessions now have their attr_accessor overridden to delegate to the
    root session.

    🛠 Fixes #32142.

    Sam Bostock

    ➕ Add SameSite protection to every written cookie.

    Enabling SameSite cookie protection is an addition to CSRF protection,
    💻 where cookies won't be sent by browsers in cross-site POST requests when set to :lax.

    :strict disables cookies being sent in cross-site GET or POST requests.

    Passing :none disables this protection and is the same as previous versions albeit a ; SameSite=None is appended to the cookie.

    See upgrade instructions in config/initializers/new_framework_defaults_6_1.rb.

    More info here

    👍 NB: Technically already possible as Rack supports SameSite protection, this is to ensure it's applied to all cookies

    Bring back the feature that allows loading external route files from the router.

    ⏪ This feature existed back in 2012 but got reverted with the incentive that

    that this wasn't fully the case and loading external route files from the router
    can be helpful for applications with a really large set of routes.

    While using perform_enqueued_jobs test helper enqueued jobs must be stored for the later check with
    assert_enqueued_with.

    Dmitry Polushkin

    ActiveJob::TestCase#perform_enqueued_jobs without a block removes performed jobs from the queue.

    👷 That way the helper can be called multiple times and not perform a job invocation multiple times.

    def test\_jobsHelloJob.perform\_later("rafael")perform\_enqueued\_jobs # only runs with "rafael"HelloJob.perform\_later("david")perform\_enqueued\_jobs # only runs with "david"end
    

    Étienne Barrié

    ActiveJob::TestCase#perform_enqueued_jobs will no longer perform retries:

    When calling perform_enqueued_jobs without a block, the adapter will
    now perform jobs that are already in the queue. Jobs that will end up in
    the queue afterwards won't be performed.

    This change only affects perform_enqueued_jobs when no block is given.

    Edouard Chin

    ➕ Add queue name support to Que adapter.

    Brad Nauta, Wojciech Wnętrzak

    Don't run after_enqueue and after_perform callbacks if the callback chain is halted.

    class MyJob < ApplicationJob
      before_enqueue { throw(:abort) }
      after_enqueue { # won't enter here anymore }
    end
    

    after_enqueue and after_perform callbacks will no longer run if the callback chain is halted.
    🚅 This behaviour is a breaking change and won't take effect until Rails 6.2.
    🔧 To enable this behaviour in your app right now, you can add in your app's configuration file
    👷 config.active_job.skip_after_callbacks_if_terminated = true.

    Edouard Chin

    🛠 Fix enqueuing and performing incorrect logging message.

    👷 Jobs will no longer always log "Enqueued MyJob" or "Performed MyJob" when they actually didn't get enqueued/performed.

    class MyJob \< ApplicationJobbefore\_enqueue { throw(:abort) }endMyJob.perform\_later # Will no longer log "Enqueued MyJob" since job wasn't even enqueued through adapter.
    

    👷 A new message will be logged in case a job couldn't be enqueued, either because the callback chain was halted or
    👷 because an exception happened during enqueuing. (i.e. Redis is down when you try to enqueue your job)

    Edouard Chin

    ➕ Add an option to disable logging of the job arguments when enqueuing and executing the job.

    class SensitiveJob < ApplicationJob
      self.log_arguments = false
    
      def perform(my_sensitive_argument)
      end
    end
    

    🔧 When dealing with sensitive arguments as password and tokens it is now possible to configure the job
    🔊 to not put the sensitive argument in the logs.

    assert_enqueued_with and assert_performed_with can now test jobs with relative delay.

    Vlado Cingel

    ➕ Add jitter to ActiveJob::Exceptions.retry_on.

    👷 ActiveJob::Exceptions.retry_on now uses a random amount of jitter in order to
    prevent the thundering herd effect. Defaults to
    15% (represented as 0.15) but overridable via the :jitter option when using retry_on.
    Jitter is applied when an Integer, ActiveSupport::Duration or :exponentially_longer, is passed to the wait argument in retry_on.

    Víctor Pérez Rodríguez

    Files can now be served by proxying them from the underlying storage service
    instead of redirecting to a signed service URL. Use the
    rails_storage_proxy_path and _url helpers to proxy an attached file:

    \<%= image\_tag rails\_storage\_proxy\_path(@user.avatar) %\>
    

    To proxy by default, set config.active_storage.resolve_model_to_route:

    # Proxy attached files instead.config.active\_storage.resolve\_model\_to\_route = :rails\_storage\_proxy
    
    \<%= image\_tag @user.avatar %\>
    

    0️⃣ To redirect to a signed service URL when the default file serving strategy
    is set to proxying, use the rails_storage_redirect_path and _url helpers:

    \<%= image\_tag rails\_storage\_redirect\_path(@user.avatar) %\>
    

    Jonathan Fleckenstein

    🌐 Add config.active_storage.web_image_content_types to allow applications

    Permanent URLs for public storage blobs.

    🔧 Services can be configured in config/storage.yml with a new key

    Dmitry Tsepelev

    You can optionally provide a custom blob key when attaching a new file:

    user.avatar.attach key: "avatars/#{user.id}.jpg",io: io, content\_type: "image/jpeg", filename: "avatar.jpg"
    

    🔧 Active Storage will store the blob's data on the configured service at the provided key.

    George Claghorn

    Replace Blob.create_after_upload! with Blob.create_and_upload! and deprecate the former.

    create_after_upload! has been removed since it could lead to data
    corruption by uploading to a key on the storage service which happened to
    be already taken. Creating the record would then correctly raise a
    👻 database uniqueness exception but the stored object would already have
    overwritten another. create_and_upload! swaps the order of operations
    so that the key gets reserved up-front or the uniqueness error gets raised,
    before the upload to a key takes place.

    Julik Tarkhanov

    Set content disposition in direct upload using filename and disposition parameters to ActiveStorage::Service#headers_for_direct_upload.

    Image analysis is skipped if ImageMagick returns an error.

    📇 ActiveStorage::Analyzer::ImageAnalyzer#metadata would previously raise a

    being added to the offending image blob.

    George Claghorn

    Method calls on singular attachments return nil when no file is attached.

    Previously, assuming the following User model, user.avatar.filename would
    raise a Module::DelegationError if no avatar was attached:

    class User \< ApplicationRecordhas\_one\_attached :avatarend
    

    They now return nil.

    Matthew Tanous

    👍 The mirror service supports direct uploads.

    🆕 New files are directly uploaded to the primary service. When a
    👷 directly-uploaded file is attached to a record, a background job is enqueued
    to copy it to each secondary service.

    🔧 Configure the queue used to process mirroring jobs by setting
    0️⃣ config.active_storage.queues.mirror. The default is :active_storage_mirror.

    The S3 service now permits uploading files larger than 5 gigabytes.

    When uploading a file greater than 100 megabytes in size, the service
    ✅ transparently switches to multipart uploads
    using a part size computed from the file's total size and S3's part count limit.

    No application changes are necessary to take advantage of this feature. You
    0️⃣ can customize the default 100 MB multipart upload threshold in your S3

    Automatically generate abstract class when using multiple databases.

    🔧 When generating a scaffold for a multiple database application, Rails will now automatically generate the abstract class for the database when the database argument is passed. This abstract class will include the connection information for the writing configuration and any models generated for that database will automatically inherit from the abstract class.

    Usage:

    $ bin/rails generate scaffold Pet name:string --database=animals
    

    Will create an abstract class for the animals connection.

    class AnimalsRecord \< ApplicationRecordself.abstract\_class = trueconnects\_to database: { writing: :animals }end
    

    And generate a Pet model that inherits from the new AnimalsRecord:

    class Pet \< AnimalsRecordend
    

    0️⃣ If you already have an abstract class and it follows a different pattern than Rails defaults, you can pass a parent class with the database argument.

    $ bin/rails generate scaffold Pet name:string --database=animals --parent=SecondaryBase
    

    This will ensure the model inherits from the SecondaryBase parent instead of AnimalsRecord

    class Pet \< SecondaryBaseend

    🔧 Configuration files for environments (config/environments/*.rb) are
    now able to modify autoload_paths, autoload_once_paths, and
    eager_load_paths.

    🔧 As a consequence, applications cannot autoload within those files. Before, they technically could, but changes in autoloaded classes or modules had no effect anyway in the configuration because reloading does not reboot.

    Ways to use application code in these files:

    🔧 Define early in the boot process a class that is not reloadable, from which the application takes configuration values that get passed to the framework.

    # In config/application.rb, for example.require "#{Rails.root}/lib/my\_app/config"# In config/environments/development.rb, for example.config.foo = MyApp::Config.foo
    

    🔧 If the class has to be reloadable, then wrap the configuration code in a to_prepare block:

    config.to\_prepare doconfig.foo = MyModel.fooend
    

    🔧 That assigns the latest MyModel.foo to config.foo when the application boots, and each time there is a reload. But whether that has an effect or not depends on the configuration point, since it is not uncommon for engines to read the application configuration during initialization and set their own state from them. That process happens only on boot, not on reloads, and if that is how config.foo worked, resetting it would have no effect in the state of the engine.

    setting config.action_view.form_with_generates_remote_forms to true.
