- Ruby on Rails 2.2 Release Notes
2
- ===============================
3
-
4
- Rails 2.2 delivers a number of new and improved features. This list covers the major upgrades, but doesn't include every little bug fix and change. If you want to see everything, check out the [list of commits](http://github.com/rails/rails/commits/2-2-stable) in the main Rails repository on GitHub.
5
-
6
- Along with Rails, 2.2 marks the launch of the [Ruby on Rails Guides](http://guides.rubyonrails.org/), the first results of the ongoing [Rails Guides hackfest](http://hackfest.rubyonrails.org/guide). This site will deliver high-quality documentation of the major features of Rails.
7

8
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-
10
- Infrastructure
11
- --------------
12
-
13
- Rails 2.2 is a significant release for the infrastructure that keeps Rails humming along and connected to the rest of the world.
14
-
15
- ### Internationalization
16
-
17
- Rails 2.2 supplies an easy system for internationalization (or i18n, for those of you tired of typing).
18
-
19
- * Lead Contributors: Rails i18 Team
20
- * More information :
21
- * [Official Rails i18 website](http://rails-i18n.org)
22
- * [Finally. Ruby on Rails gets internationalized](http://www.artweb-design.de/2008/7/18/finally-ruby-on-rails-gets-internationalized)
23
- * [Localizing Rails : Demo application](http://github.com/clemens/i18n_demo_app)
24
-
25
- ### Compatibility with Ruby 1.9 and JRuby
26
-
27
- Along with thread safety, a lot of work has been done to make Rails work well with JRuby and the upcoming Ruby 1.9. With Ruby 1.9 being a moving target, running edge Rails on edge Ruby is still a hit-or-miss proposition, but Rails is ready to make the transition to Ruby 1.9 when the latter is released.
28
-
29
- Documentation
30
- -------------
31
-
32
- The internal documentation of Rails, in the form of code comments, has been improved in numerous places. In addition, the [Ruby on Rails Guides](http://guides.rubyonrails.org/) project is the definitive source for information on major Rails components. In its first official release, the Guides page includes:
33
-
34
- * [Getting Started with Rails](getting_started.html)
35
- * [Rails Database Migrations](migrations.html)
36
- * [Active Record Associations](association_basics.html)
37
- * [Active Record Query Interface](active_record_querying.html)
38
- * [Layouts and Rendering in Rails](layouts_and_rendering.html)
39
- * [Action View Form Helpers](form_helpers.html)
40
- * [Rails Routing from the Outside In](routing.html)
41
- * [Action Controller Overview](action_controller_overview.html)
42

65
- Better integration with HTTP : Out of the box ETag support
66
- ----------------------------------------------------------
67
-
68
- Supporting the etag and last modified timestamp in HTTP headers means that Rails can now send back an empty response if it gets a request for a resource that hasn't been modified lately. This allows you to check whether a response needs to be sent at all.
69
-
70
- ```ruby
71
- class ArticlesController < ApplicationController
72
- def show_with_respond_to_block
73
- @article = Article.find(params[:id])
74
-
75
- # If the request sends headers that differs from the options provided to stale?, then
76
- # the request is indeed stale and the respond_to block is triggered (and the options
77
- # to the stale? call is set on the response).
78
- #
79
- # If the request headers match, then the request is fresh and the respond_to block is
80
- # not triggered. Instead the default render will occur, which will check the last-modified
81
- # and etag headers and conclude that it only needs to send a "304 Not Modified" instead
82
- # of rendering the template.
83
- if stale?(:last_modified => @article.published_at.utc, :etag => @article)
84
- respond_to do |wants|
85
- # normal response processing
86
- end
87
- end
88
- end
89
-
90
- def show_with_implied_render
91
- @article = Article.find(params[:id])
92
-
93
- # Sets the response headers and checks them against the request, if the request is stale
94
- # (i.e. no match of either etag or last-modified), then the default render of the template happens.
95
- # If the request is fresh, then the default render will return a "304 Not Modified"
96
- # instead of rendering the template.
97
- fresh_when(:last_modified => @article.published_at.utc, :etag => @article)
98
- end
99
- end
100
- ```
101
-
102
- Thread Safety
103
- -------------
104
-
105
- The work done to make Rails thread-safe is rolling out in Rails 2.2. Depending on your web server infrastructure, this means you can handle more requests with fewer copies of Rails in memory, leading to better server performance and higher utilization of multiple cores.
106
-
107
- To enable multithreaded dispatching in production mode of your application, add the following line in your `config/environments/production.rb`:
108
-
109
- ```ruby
110
- config.threadsafe!
111
- ```

- Active Record
119
- -------------
120
-
121
- There are two big additions to talk about here: transactional migrations and pooled database transactions. There's also a new (and cleaner) syntax for join table conditions, as well as a number of smaller improvements.
122
-
123
- ### Transactional Migrations
124
-
125
- Historically, multiple-step Rails migrations have been a source of trouble. If something went wrong during a migration, everything before the error changed the database and everything after the error wasn't applied. Also, the migration version was stored as having been executed, which means that it couldn't be simply rerun by `rake db:migrate:redo` after you fix the problem. Transactional migrations change this by wrapping migration steps in a DDL transaction, so that if any of them fail, the entire migration is undone. In Rails 2.2, transactional migrations are supported on PostgreSQL out of the box. The code is extensible to other database types in the future - and IBM has already extended it to support the DB2 adapter.

131
-
132
- ### Connection Pooling
133
-
134
- Connection pooling lets Rails distribute database requests across a pool of database connections that will grow to a maximum size (by default 5, but you can add a `pool` key to your `database.yml` to adjust this). This helps remove bottlenecks in applications that support many concurrent users. There's also a `wait_timeout` that defaults to 5 seconds before giving up. `ActiveRecord::Base.connection_pool` gives you direct access to the pool if you need it.
135
-
136
- ```yaml
137
- development:
138
- adapter: mysql
139
- username: root
140
- database: sample_development
141
- pool: 10
142
- wait_timeout: 10
143
- ```

-
149
- ### Hashes for Join Table Conditions
150
-
151
- You can now specify conditions on join tables using a hash. This is a big help if you need to query across complex joins.
152
-
153
- ```ruby
154
- class Photo < ActiveRecord::Base
155
- belongs_to :product
156
- end
157
-
158
- class Product < ActiveRecord::Base
159
- has_many :photos
160
- end
161
-
162
- # Get all products with copyright-free photos:
163
- Product.all(:joins => :photos, :conditions => { :photos => { :copyright => false }})
164
- ```

168
-
169
- ### New Dynamic Finders
170
-
171
- Two new sets of methods have been added to Active Record's dynamic finders family.
172
-
173
- #### `find_last_by_attribute`
174
-
175
- The `find_last_by_attribute` method is equivalent to `Model.last(:conditions => {:attribute => value})`
176
-
177
- ```ruby
178
- # Get the last user who signed up from London
179
- User.find_last_by_city('London')
180
- ```
181
-
182
- * Lead Contributor: [Emilio Tagua](http://www.workingwithrails.com/person/9147-emilio-tagua)
183
-
184
- #### `find_by_attribute!`
185
-
186
- The new bang! version of `find_by_attribute!` is equivalent to `Model.first(:conditions => {:attribute => value}) || raise ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound` Instead of returning `nil` if it can't find a matching record, this method will raise an exception if it cannot find a match.
187
-
188
- ```ruby
189
- # Raise ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound exception if 'Moby' hasn't signed up yet!
190
- User.find_by_name!('Moby')
191
- ```

194
-
195
- ### Associations Respect Private/Protected Scope
196
-
197
- Active Record association proxies now respect the scope of methods on the proxied object. Previously (given User has_one :account) `@user.account.private_method` would call the private method on the associated Account object. That fails in Rails 2.2; if you need this functionality, you should use `@user.account.send(:private_method)` (or make the method public instead of private or protected). Please note that if you're overriding `method_missing`, you should also override `respond_to` to match the behavior in order for associations to function normally.

202
-
203
- ### Other Active Record Changes
204
-
205
- * `rake db:migrate:redo` now accepts an optional VERSION to target that specific migration to redo
206
- * Set `config.active_record.timestamped_migrations = false` to have migrations with numeric prefix instead of UTC timestamp.
207
- * Counter cache columns (for associations declared with `:counter_cache => true`) do not need to be initialized to zero any longer.
208
- * `ActiveRecord::Base.human_name` for an internationalization-aware humane translation of model names
209
-
210
- Action Controller
211
- -----------------
212
-
213
- On the controller side, there are several changes that will help tidy up your routes. There are also some internal changes in the routing engine to lower memory usage on complex applications.
214
-
215
- ### Shallow Route Nesting
216
-
217
- Shallow route nesting provides a solution to the well-known difficulty of using deeply-nested resources. With shallow nesting, you need only supply enough information to uniquely identify the resource that you want to work with.
218
-
219
- ```ruby
220
- map.resources :publishers, :shallow => true do |publisher|
221
- publisher.resources :magazines do |magazine|
222
- magazine.resources :photos
223
- end
224
- end
225
- ```
226
-
227
- This will enable recognition of (among others) these routes:
228
-
229
- ```
230
- /publishers/1 ==> publisher_path(1)
231
- /publishers/1/magazines ==> publisher_magazines_path(1)
232
- /magazines/2 ==> magazine_path(2)
233
- /magazines/2/photos ==> magazines_photos_path(2)
234
- /photos/3 ==> photo_path(3)
235
- ```

241
-
242
- ### Method Arrays for Member or Collection Routes
243
-
244
- You can now supply an array of methods for new member or collection routes. This removes the annoyance of having to define a route as accepting any verb as soon as you need it to handle more than one. With Rails 2.2, this is a legitimate route declaration:
245
-
246
- ```ruby
247
- map.resources :photos, :collection => { :search => [:get, :post] }
248
- ```
249
-
250
- * Lead Contributor: [Brennan Dunn](http://brennandunn.com/)
251
-
252
- ### Resources With Specific Actions
253
-
254
- By default, when you use `map.resources` to create a route, Rails generates routes for seven default actions (index, show, create, new, edit, update, and destroy). But each of these routes takes up memory in your application, and causes Rails to generate additional routing logic. Now you can use the `:only` and `:except` options to fine-tune the routes that Rails will generate for resources. You can supply a single action, an array of actions, or the special `:all` or `:none` options. These options are inherited by nested resources.
255
-
256
- ```ruby
257
- map.resources :photos, :only => [:index, :show]
258
- map.resources :products, :except => :destroy
259
- ```
260
-
261
- * Lead Contributor: [Tom Stuart](http://experthuman.com/)
262
-
263
- ### Other Action Controller Changes
264
-
265
- * You can now easily [show a custom error page](http://m.onkey.org/2008/7/20/rescue-from-dispatching) for exceptions raised while routing a request.
266
- * The HTTP Accept header is disabled by default now. You should prefer the use of formatted URLs (such as `/customers/1.xml`) to indicate the format that you want. If you need the Accept headers, you can turn them back on with `config.action_controller.use_accept_header = true`.
267
- * Benchmarking numbers are now reported in milliseconds rather than tiny fractions of seconds
268
- * Rails now supports HTTP-only cookies (and uses them for sessions), which help mitigate some cross-site scripting risks in newer browsers.
269
- * `redirect_to` now fully supports URI schemes (so, for example, you can redirect to a svn`ssh: URI).
270
- * `render` now supports a `:js` option to render plain vanilla JavaScript with the right mime type.
271
- * Request forgery protection has been tightened up to apply to HTML-formatted content requests only.
272
- * Polymorphic URLs behave more sensibly if a passed parameter is nil. For example, calling `polymorphic_path([@project, @date, @area])` with a nil date will give you `project_area_path`.
273
-
274
- Action View
275
- -----------
276
-
277
- * `javascript_include_tag` and `stylesheet_link_tag` support a new `:recursive` option to be used along with `:all`, so that you can load an entire tree of files with a single line of code.
278
- * The included Prototype JavaScript library has been upgraded to version 1.6.0.3.
279
- * `RJS#page.reload` to reload the browser's current location via JavaScript
280
- * The `atom_feed` helper now takes an `:instruct` option to let you insert XML processing instructions.
281
-
282
- Action Mailer
283
- -------------
284
-
285
- Action Mailer now supports mailer layouts. You can make your HTML emails as pretty as your in-browser views by supplying an appropriately-named layout - for example, the `CustomerMailer` class expects to use `layouts/customer_mailer.html.erb`.
286
-
287
- * More information:
288
- * [What's New in Edge Rails: Mailer Layouts](http://ryandaigle.com/articles/2008/9/7/what-s-new-in-edge-rails-mailer-layouts)
289
-
290
- Action Mailer now offers built-in support for GMail's SMTP servers, by turning on STARTTLS automatically. This requires Ruby 1.8.7 to be installed.
291
-
292
- Active Support
293
- --------------
294
-
295
- Active Support now offers built-in memoization for Rails applications, the `each_with_object` method, prefix support on delegates, and various other new utility methods.
296
-
297
- ### Memoization
298
-
299
- Memoization is a pattern of initializing a method once and then stashing its value away for repeat use. You've probably used this pattern in your own applications:
300
-
301
- ```ruby
302
- def full_name
303
- @full_name ||= "#{first_name} #{last_name}"
304
- end
305
- ```
306
-
307
- Memoization lets you handle this task in a declarative fashion:
308
-
309
- ```ruby
310
- extend ActiveSupport::Memoizable
311
-
312
- def full_name
313
- "#{first_name} #{last_name}"
314
- end
315
- memoize :full_name
316
- ```
317
-
318
- Other features of memoization include `unmemoize`, `unmemoize_all`, and `memoize_all` to turn memoization on or off.

324
-
325
- ### each_with_object
326
-
327
- The `each_with_object` method provides an alternative to `inject`, using a method backported from Ruby 1.9. It iterates over a collection, passing the current element and the memo into the block.
328
-
329
- ```ruby
330
- %w(foo bar).each_with_object({}) { |str, hsh| hsh[str] = str.upcase } # => {'foo' => 'FOO', 'bar' => 'BAR'}
331
- ```

333
- Lead Contributor: [Adam Keys](http://therealadam.com/)
334
-
335
- ### Delegates With Prefixes
336
-
337
- If you delegate behavior from one class to another, you can now specify a prefix that will be used to identify the delegated methods. For example:
338
-
339
- ```ruby
340
- class Vendor < ActiveRecord::Base
341
- has_one :account
342
- delegate :email, :password, :to => :account, :prefix => true
343
- end
344
- ```
345
-
346
- This will produce delegated methods `vendor#account_email` and `vendor#account_password`. You can also specify a custom prefix:
347
-
348
- ```ruby
349
- class Vendor < ActiveRecord::Base
350
- has_one :account
351
- delegate :email, :password, :to => :account, :prefix => :owner
352
- end
353
- ```
354
-
355
- This will produce delegated methods `vendor#owner_email` and `vendor#owner_password`.

358
-
359
- ### Other Active Support Changes
360
-
361
- * Extensive updates to `ActiveSupport::Multibyte`, including Ruby 1.9 compatibility fixes.
362
- * The addition of `ActiveSupport::Rescuable` allows any class to mix in the `rescue_from` syntax.
363
- * `past?`, `today?` and `future?` for `Date` and `Time` classes to facilitate date/time comparisons.
364
- * `Array#second` through `Array#fifth` as aliases for `Array#[1]` through `Array#[4]`
365
- * `Enumerable#many?` to encapsulate `collection.size > 1`
366
- * `Inflector#parameterize` produces a URL-ready version of its input, for use in `to_param`.
367
- * `Time#advance` recognizes fractional days and weeks, so you can do `1.7.weeks.ago`, `1.5.hours.since`, and so on.
368
- * The included TzInfo library has been upgraded to version 0.3.12.
369
- * `ActiveSupport::StringInquirer` gives you a pretty way to test for equality in strings: `ActiveSupport::StringInquirer.new("abc").abc? => true`
370
-
371
- Railties
372
- --------
373
-
374
- In Railties (the core code of Rails itself) the biggest changes are in the `config.gems` mechanism.
375
-
376
- ### config.gems
377
-
378
- To avoid deployment issues and make Rails applications more self-contained, it's possible to place copies of all of the gems that your Rails application requires in `/vendor/gems`. This capability first appeared in Rails 2.1, but it's much more flexible and robust in Rails 2.2, handling complicated dependencies between gems. Gem management in Rails includes these commands:
379
-
380
- * `config.gem _gem_name_` in your `config/environment.rb` file
381
- * `rake gems` to list all configured gems, as well as whether they (and their dependencies) are installed, frozen, or framework (framework gems are those loaded by Rails before the gem dependency code is executed; such gems cannot be frozen)
382
- * `rake gems:install` to install missing gems to the computer
383
- * `rake gems:unpack` to place a copy of the required gems into `/vendor/gems`
384
- * `rake gems:unpack:dependencies` to get copies of the required gems and their dependencies into `/vendor/gems`
385
- * `rake gems:build` to build any missing native extensions
386
- * `rake gems:refresh_specs` to bring vendored gems created with Rails 2.1 into alignment with the Rails 2.2 way of storing them
387
-
388
- You can unpack or install a single gem by specifying `GEM=_gem_name_` on the command line.

- ### Other Railties Changes
397
-
398
- * If you're a fan of the [Thin](http://code.macournoyer.com/thin/) web server, you'll be happy to know that `script/server` now supports Thin directly.
399
- * `script/plugin install &lt;plugin&gt; -r &lt;revision&gt;` now works with git-based as well as svn-based plugins.
400
- * `script/console` now supports a `--debugger` option
401
- * Instructions for setting up a continuous integration server to build Rails itself are included in the Rails source
402
- * `rake notes:custom ANNOTATION=MYFLAG` lets you list out custom annotations.
403
- * Wrapped `Rails.env` in `StringInquirer` so you can do `Rails.env.development?`
404
- * To eliminate deprecation warnings and properly handle gem dependencies, Rails now requires rubygems 1.3.1 or higher.
405
-
406
- Deprecated
407
- ----------
408
-
409
- A few pieces of older code are deprecated in this release:
410
-
411
- * `Rails::SecretKeyGenerator` has been replaced by `ActiveSupport::SecureRandom`
412
- * `render_component` is deprecated. There's a [render_components plugin](http://github.com/rails/render_component/tree/master) available if you need this functionality.
413
- * Implicit local assignments when rendering partials has been deprecated.
414
-
415
- ```ruby
416
- def partial_with_implicit_local_assignment
417
- @customer = Customer.new("Marcel")
418
- render :partial => "customer"
419
- end
420
- ```
421
