Upgrading to Rails 4.2
|
22
|
+
----------------------
|
23
|
+
|
24
|
+
If you're upgrading an existing application, it's a great idea to have good test
|
25
|
+
coverage before going in. You should also first upgrade to Rails 4.1 in case you
|
26
|
+
haven't and make sure your application still runs as expected before attempting
|
27
|
+
to upgrade to Rails 4.2. A list of things to watch out for when upgrading is
|
28
|
+
available in the
|
29
|
+
[Upgrading Ruby on Rails](upgrading_ruby_on_rails.html#upgrading-from-rails-4-1-to-rails-4-2)
|
30
|
+
guide.

|
+
Major Features
|
34
|
+
--------------
|
35
|
+
|
36
|
+
### Active Job, Action Mailer #deliver_later
|
37
|
+
|
38
|
+
Active Job is a new framework in Rails 4.2. It is an adapter layer on top of
|
39
|
+
queuing systems like [Resque](https://github.com/resque/resque), [Delayed Job](https://github.com/collectiveidea/delayed_job), [Sidekiq](https://github.com/mperham/sidekiq), and more. You can write your
|
40
|
+
jobs with the Active Job API, and it'll run on all these queues with no changes
|
41
|
+
(it comes pre-configured with an inline runner).
|
42
|
+
|
43
|
+
Building on top of Active Job, Action Mailer now comes with a `#deliver_later`
|
44
|
+
method, which adds your email to be sent as a job to a queue, so it doesn't
|
45
|
+
bog down the controller or model.
|
46
|
+
|
47
|
+
The new GlobalID library makes it easy to pass Active Record objects to jobs by
|
48
|
+
serializing them in a generic form. This means you no longer have to manually
|
49
|
+
pack and unpack your Active Records by passing ids. Just give the job the
|
50
|
+
straight Active Record object, and it'll serialize it using GlobalID, and
|
51
|
+
deserialize it at run time.
|
52
|
+
|
53
|
+
### Adequate Record
|
54
|
+
|
55
|
+
Rails 4.2 comes with a performance improvement feature called Adequate Record
|
56
|
+
for Active Record. A lot of common queries are now up to twice as fast in Rails
|
57
|
+
4.2!
|
58
|
+
|
59
|
+
TODO: add some technical details
|
60
|
+
|
61
|
+
### Web Console
|
62
|
+
|
63
|
+
New applications generated from Rails 4.2 now come with the Web Console gem by
|
64
|
+
default.
|
65
|
+
|
66
|
+
Web Console is a set of debugging tools for your Rails application. It will add
|
67
|
+
an interactive console on every error page, a `console` view helper and a VT100
|
68
|
+
compatible terminal.
|
69
|
+
|
70
|
+
The interactive console on the error pages lets you execute code where the
|
71
|
+
exception originated. It's quite handy to introspect the state that led to the
|
72
|
+
error.
|
73
|
+
|
74
|
+
The `console` view helper launches an interactive console within the context of
|
75
|
+
the view where it is invoked.
|
76
|
+
|
77
|
+
Finally, you can launch a VT100 terminal that runs `rails console`. If you need
|
78
|
+
to create or modify existing test data, you can do that straight from the
|
79
|
+
browser.
|
80
|
+
|
81
|
+
### Foreign key support
|
82
|
+
|
83
|
+
The migration DSL now supports adding and removing foreign keys. They are dumped
|
84
|
+
to `schema.rb` as well. At this time, only the `mysql`, `mysql2` and `postgresql`
|
85
|
+
adapters support foreign keys.
|
86
|
+
|
87
|
+
```ruby
|
88
|
+
# add a foreign key to `articles.author_id` referencing `authors.id`
|
89
|
+
add_foreign_key :articles, :authors
|
90
|
+
|
91
|
+
# add a foreign key to `articles.author_id` referencing `users.lng_id`
|
92
|
+
add_foreign_key :articles, :users, column: :author_id, primary_key: "lng_id"
|
93
|
+
|
94
|
+
# remove the foreign key on `accounts.branch_id`
|
95
|
+
remove_foreign_key :accounts, :branches
|
96
|
+
|
97
|
+
# remove the foreign key on `accounts.owner_id`
|
98
|
+
remove_foreign_key :accounts, column: :owner_id
|
99
|
+
```
|
100
|
+
|
101
|
+
See the API documentation on
|
102
|
+
[add_foreign_key](http://api.rubyonrails.org/v4.2.0/classes/ActiveRecord/ConnectionAdapters/SchemaStatements.html#method-i-add_foreign_key)
|
103
|
+
and
|
104
|
+
[remove_foreign_key](http://api.rubyonrails.org/v4.2.0/classes/ActiveRecord/ConnectionAdapters/SchemaStatements.html#method-i-remove_foreign_key)
|
105
|
+
for a full description.
|
106
|
+
|
107
|
+
|
108
|
+
Incompatibilities
|
109
|
+
-----------------
|
110
|
+
|
111
|
+
Previously deprecated functionality has been removed. Please refer to the
|
112
|
+
individual components for new deprecations in this release.
|
113
|
+
|
114
|
+
The following changes may require immediate action upon upgrade.
|
115
|
+
|
116
|
+
### `respond_with` / class-level `respond_to`
|
117
|
+
|
118
|
+
`respond_with` and the corresponding class-level `respond_to` have been moved to
|
119
|
+
the `responders` gem. To use the following, add `gem 'responders', '~> 2.0'` to
|
120
|
+
your Gemfile:
|
121
|
+
|
122
|
+
```ruby
|
123
|
+
# app/controllers/users_controller.rb
|
124
|
+
|
125
|
+
class UsersController < ApplicationController
|
126
|
+
respond_to :html, :json
|
127
|
+
|
128
|
+
def show
|
129
|
+
@user = User.find(params[:id])
|
130
|
+
respond_with @user
|
131
|
+
end
|
132
|
+
end
|
133
|
+
```
|
134
|
+
|
135
|
+
Instance-level `respond_to` is unaffected:
|
136
|
+
|
137
|
+
```ruby
|
138
|
+
# app/controllers/users_controller.rb
|
139
|
+
|
140
|
+
class UsersController < ApplicationController
|
141
|
+
def show
|
142
|
+
@user = User.find(params[:id])
|
143
|
+
respond_to do |format|
|
144
|
+
format.html
|
145
|
+
format.json { render json: @user }
|
146
|
+
end
|
147
|
+
end
|
148
|
+
end
|
149
|
+
```
|
150
|
+
|
151
|
+
### Production logging
|
152
|
+
|
153
|
+
The default log level in the `production` environment is now `:debug`. This
|
154
|
+
makes it consistent with the other environments, and ensures plenty of
|
155
|
+
information is available to diagnose problems.
|
156
|
+
|
157
|
+
It can be returned to the previous level, `:info`, in the environment
|
158
|
+
configuration:
|
159
|
+
|
160
|
+
```ruby
|
161
|
+
# config/environments/production.rb
|
162
|
+
|
163
|
+
# Decrease the log volume.
|
164
|
+
config.log_level = :info
|
165
|
+
```
|
166
|
+
|
167
|
+
### HTML Sanitizer
|
168
|
+
|
169
|
+
The HTML sanitizer has been replaced with a new, more robust, implementation
|
170
|
+
built upon Loofah and Nokogiri. The new sanitizer is more secure and its
|
171
|
+
sanitization is more powerful and flexible.
|
172
|
+
|
173
|
+
With a new sanitization algorithm, the sanitized output will change for certain
|
174
|
+
pathological inputs.
|
175
|
+
|
176
|
+
If you have particular need for the exact output of the old sanitizer, you can
|
177
|
+
add `rails-deprecated_sanitizer` to your Gemfile, and it will automatically
|
178
|
+
replace the new implementation. Because it is opt-in, the legacy gem will not
|
179
|
+
give deprecation warnings.
|
180
|
+
|
181
|
+
`rails-deprecated_sanitizer` will be supported for Rails 4.2 only; it will not
|
182
|
+
be maintained for Rails 5.0.
|
183
|
+
|
184
|
+
See [the blog post](http://blog.plataformatec.com.br/2014/07/the-new-html-sanitizer-in-rails-4-2/)
|
185
|
+
for more detail on the changes in the new sanitizer.
|
186
|
+
|
187
|
+
### `assert_select`
|
188
|
+
|
189
|
+
`assert_select` is now based on Nokogiri, making it (TODO: betterer).
|
190
|
+
|
191
|
+
As a result, some previously-valid selectors are now unsupported. If your
|
192
|
+
application is using any of these spellings, you will need to update them:
|
193
|
+
|
194
|
+
* Values in attribute selectors may need to be quoted if they contain
|
195
|
+
non-alphanumeric characters.
|
196
|
+
|
197
|
+
```
|
198
|
+
a[href=/] => a[href="/"]
|
199
|
+
a[href$=/] => a[href$="/"]
|
200
|
+
```
|
201
|
+
|
202
|
+
* DOMs built from HTML source containing invalid HTML with improperly
|
203
|
+
nested elements may differ.
|
204
|
+
|
205
|
+
For example:
|
206
|
+
|
207
|
+
``` ruby
|
208
|
+
# content: <div><i><p></i></div>
|
209
|
+
|
210
|
+
# before:
|
211
|
+
assert_select('div > i') # => true
|
212
|
+
assert_select('div > p') # => false
|
213
|
+
assert_select('i > p') # => true
|
214
|
+
|
215
|
+
# now:
|
216
|
+
assert_select('div > i') # => true
|
217
|
+
assert_select('div > p') # => true
|
218
|
+
assert_select('i > p') # => false
|
219
|
+
```
|
220
|
+
|
221
|
+
* If the data selected contains entities, the value selected for comparison
|
222
|
+
used to be raw (e.g. `AT&T`), and now is evaluated
|
223
|
+
(e.g. `AT&T`).
|
224
|
+
|
225
|
+
``` ruby
|
226
|
+
# content: <p>AT&T</p>
|
227
|
+
|
228
|
+
# before:
|
229
|
+
assert_select('p', 'AT&T') # => true
|
230
|
+
assert_select('p', 'AT&T') # => false
|
231
|
+
|
232
|
+
# now:
|
233
|
+
assert_select('p', 'AT&T') # => true
|
234
|
+
assert_select('p', 'AT&T') # => false
|
235
|
+
```

+
* The `rails application` command has been removed without replacement.
|
246
|
+
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/11616))
|
247
|
+
|
248
|
+
### Deprecations
|
249
|
+
|
250
|
+
* Deprecated `Rails::Rack::LogTailer` without replacement.
|
251
|
+
([Commit](https://github.com/rails/rails/commit/84a13e019e93efaa8994b3f8303d635a7702dbce))
|
252
|
+
|
253
|
+
### Notable changes
|
254
|
+
|
255
|
+
* Introduced `web-console` in the default application Gemfile.
|
256
|
+
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/11667))
|
257
|
+
|
258
|
+
* Added a `required` option to the model generator for associations.
|
259

262
|
+
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/16359))
|
263
|
+
|
264
|
+
* Introduced the `x` namespace for defining custom configuration options:
|
265
|
+
|
266
|
+
```ruby
|
267
|
+
# config/environments/production.rb
|
268

|
+
config.x.super_debugger = true
|
271
|
+
```
|
272
|
+
|
273
|
+
These options are then available through the configuration object:
|
274
|
+
|
275
|
+
```ruby
|
276
|
+
Rails.configuration.x.payment_processing.schedule # => :daily

([Commit](https://github.com/rails/rails/commit/611849772dd66c2e4d005dcfe153f7ce79a8a7db))
|
282
|
+
|
283
|
+
* Introduced `Rails::Application.config_for` to load a configuration for the
|
284
|
+
current environment.
|
285
|
+
|
286
|
+
```ruby
|
287

|
+
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/16129))
|
302
|
+
|
303
|
+
* Introduced a `--skip-gems` option in the app generator to skip gems such as
|
304
|
+
`turbolinks` and `coffee-rails` that do not have their own specific flags.
|
305
|
+
([Commit](https://github.com/rails/rails/commit/10565895805887d4faf004a6f71219da177f78b7))
|
306
|
+
|
307
|
+
* Introduced a `bin/setup` script to enable automated setup code when
|
308
|
+
bootstrapping an application.
|
309
|
+
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/15189))
|
310
|
+
|
311
|
+
* Changed default value for `config.assets.digest` to `true` in development.
|
312
|
+
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/15155))
|

|
+
|
314
|
+
* Introduced an API to register new extensions for `rake notes`.
|
315
|
+
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/14379))
|
316
|
+
|
317
|
+
* Introduced `Rails.gem_version` as a convenience method to return
|
318
|
+
`Gem::Version.new(Rails.version)`.
|
319
|
+
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/14101))

|
327
|
+
### Removals
|
328
|
+
|
329
|
+
* `respond_with` and the class-level `respond_to` were removed from Rails and
|
330
|
+
moved to the `responders` gem (version 2.0). Add `gem 'responders', '~> 2.0'`
|
331
|
+
to your `Gemfile` to continue using these features.
|
332
|
+
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/16526))
|
333
|
+
|
334
|
+
* Removed deprecated `AbstractController::Helpers::ClassMethods::MissingHelperError`
|
335
|
+
in favor of `AbstractController::Helpers::MissingHelperError`.
|
336
|
+
([Commit](https://github.com/rails/rails/commit/a1ddde15ae0d612ff2973de9cf768ed701b594e8))
|
337
|
+
|
338
|
+
### Deprecations
|
339
|
+
|
340
|
+
* Deprecated `assert_tag`, `assert_no_tag`, `find_tag` and `find_all_tag` in
|
341
|
+
favor of `assert_select`.
|
342
|
+
([Commit](https://github.com/rails/rails-dom-testing/commit/b12850bc5ff23ba4b599bf2770874dd4f11bf750))
|
343
|
+
|
344
|
+
* Deprecated support for setting the `:to` option of a router to a symbol or a
|
345
|
+
string that does not contain a `#` character:
|
346
|
+
|
347
|
+
```ruby
|
348
|
+
get '/posts', to: MyRackApp => (No change necessary)
|
349
|
+
get '/posts', to: 'post#index' => (No change necessary)
|
350
|
+
get '/posts', to: 'posts' => get '/posts', controller: :posts
|
351
|
+
get '/posts', to: :index => get '/posts', action: :index
|
352
|
+
```
|
353
|
+
|
354
|
+
([Commit](https://github.com/rails/rails/commit/cc26b6b7bccf0eea2e2c1a9ebdcc9d30ca7390d9))
|
355
|
+
|
356
|
+
### Notable changes
|
357
|
+
|
358
|
+
* Rails will now automatically include the template's digest in ETags.
|
359
|
+
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/16527))
|
360
|
+
|
361
|
+
* `render nothing: true` or rendering a `nil` body no longer add a single
|
362
|
+
space padding to the response body.
|
363
|
+
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/14883))
|
364
|
+
|
365
|
+
* Introduced the `always_permitted_parameters` option to configure which
|
366
|
+
parameters are permitted globally. The default value of this configuration
|
367
|
+
is `['controller', 'action']`.
|
368
|
+
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/15933))
|
369
|
+
|
370
|
+
* The `*_filter` family methods have been removed from the documentation. Their
|
371
|
+
usage is discouraged in favor of the `*_action` family methods:
|
372
|
+
|
373
|
+
```
|
374
|
+
after_filter => after_action
|
375
|
+
append_after_filter => append_after_action
|
376
|
+
append_around_filter => append_around_action
|
377
|
+
append_before_filter => append_before_action
|
378
|
+
around_filter => around_action
|
379
|
+
before_filter => before_action
|
380
|
+
prepend_after_filter => prepend_after_action
|
381
|
+
prepend_around_filter => prepend_around_action
|
382
|
+
prepend_before_filter => prepend_before_action
|
383
|
+
skip_after_filter => skip_after_action
|
384
|
+
skip_around_filter => skip_around_action
|
385
|
+
skip_before_filter => skip_before_action
|
386
|
+
skip_filter => skip_action_callback
|
387
|
+
```
|
388
|
+
|
389
|
+
If your application currently depends on these methods, you should use the
|
390
|
+
replacement `*_action` methods instead. These methods will be deprecated in
|
391
|
+
the future and will eventually be removed from Rails.

|
395
|
+
|
396

|
+
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/15121))
|
398
|

* `*_fragment.action_controller` notifications now include the controller
|
400
|
+
and action name in the payload.

|
+
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/14137))

402

|
403

* Segments that are passed into URL helpers are now automatically escaped.

([Commit](https://github.com/rails/rails/commit/5460591f0226a9d248b7b4f89186bd5553e7768f))
|
405
|
+
|
406
|
+
* Improved the Routing Error page with fuzzy matching for route search.
|
407
|
+
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/14619))
|
408
|
+
|
409
|
+
* Added an option to disable logging of CSRF failures.
|
410
|
+
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/14280))
|
411
|
+
|
412
|
+
* When the Rails server is set to serve static assets, gzip assets will now be
|
413
|
+
served if the client supports it and a pre-generated gzip file (.gz) is on disk.
|
414
|
+
By default the asset pipeline generates `.gz` files for all compressible assets.
|
415
|
+
Serving gzip files minimizes data transfer and speeds up asset requests. Always
|
416
|
+
[use a CDN](http://guides.rubyonrails.org/asset_pipeline.html#cdns) if you are
|
417
|
+
serving assets from your Rails server in production.
|
418
|
+
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/16466))
|
419
|
+
|
420
|
+
* The way `assert_select` works has changed; specifically a different library
|
421
|
+
is used to interpret css selectors, build the transient DOM that the
|
422
|
+
selectors are applied against, and to extract the data from that DOM. These
|
423
|
+
changes should only affect edge cases. Examples:
|
424
|
+
* Values in attribute selectors may need to be quoted if they contain
|
425
|
+
non-alphanumeric characters.
|
426
|
+
* DOMs built from HTML source containing invalid HTML with improperly
|
427
|
+
nested elements may differ.
|
428
|
+
* If the data selected contains entities, the value selected for comparison
|
429
|
+
used to be raw (e.g. `AT&T`), and now is evaluated
|
430
|
+
(e.g. `AT&T`).

452
|
+
partials that are rendered with a collection. It provides access to the
|
453
|
+
current state of the iteration via the `#index`, `#size`, `#first?` and
|
454
|
+
`#last?` methods.

|
+
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/7698))
|
456
|
+
|
457

|
458
|
+
the hidden fields.
|
459
|
+
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/14738))

### Deprecations
|
471
|
+
|
472
|
+
* Deprecated `*_path` helpers in mailers. Always use `*_url` helpers instead.
|
473
|

([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/15840))
|
474
|
+
|
475
|
+
* Deprecated `deliver` / `deliver!` in favour of `deliver_now` / `deliver_now!`.
|
476
|
+
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/16582))
|
477
|
+
|
478
|
+
### Notable changes
|
479
|
+
|
480
|
+
* Introduced `deliver_later` which enqueues a job on the application's queue
|
481
|
+
to deliver emails asynchronously.
|
482
|
+
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/16485))
|
483
|
+
|
484
|
+
* Added the `show_previews` configuration option for enabling mailer previews
|
485
|
+
outside of the development environment.

|
492
|
+
Please refer to the [Changelog][active-record] for detailed changes.
|
493
|
+
|
494
|
+
### Removals
|
495
|
+
|
496
|
+
* Removed `cache_attributes` and friends. All attributes are cached.
|
497
|
+
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/15429))
|
498
|
+
|
499
|
+
* Removed deprecated method `ActiveRecord::Base.quoted_locking_column`.
|
500
|
+
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/15612))
|
501
|
+
|
502
|
+
* Removed deprecated `ActiveRecord::Migrator.proper_table_name`. Use the
|
503
|
+
`proper_table_name` instance method on `ActiveRecord::Migration` instead.
|
504
|
+
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/15512))
|
505
|
+
|
506
|
+
* Removed unused `:timestamp` type. Transparently alias it to `:datetime`
|
507
|
+
in all cases. Fixes inconsistencies when column types are sent outside of
|
508
|
+
`ActiveRecord`, such as for XML serialization.
|
509
|
+
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/15184))
|
510
|
+
|
511
|
+
### Deprecations
|
512
|
+
|
513
|
+
* Deprecated swallowing of errors inside `after_commit` and `after_rollback`.
|
514
|
+
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/16537))
|
515
|
+
|
516
|
+
* Deprecated calling `DatabaseTasks.load_schema` without a connection. Use
|
517
|
+
`DatabaseTasks.load_schema_current` instead.
|
518
|
+
([Commit](https://github.com/rails/rails/commit/f15cef67f75e4b52fd45655d7c6ab6b35623c608))
|
519
|
+
|
520
|
+
* Deprecated `Reflection#source_macro` without replacement as it is no longer
|
521
|
+
needed in Active Record.
|
522
|
+
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/16373))
|
523
|
+
|
524
|
+
* Deprecated broken support for automatic detection of counter caches on
|
525
|
+
`has_many :through` associations. You should instead manually specify the
|
526
|
+
counter cache on the `has_many` and `belongs_to` associations for the
|
527
|
+
through records.
|
528
|
+
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/15754))
|
529
|
+
|
530
|
+
* Deprecated `serialized_attributes` without replacement.
|
531
|
+
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/15704))
|
532
|
+
|
533
|
+
* Deprecated returning `nil` from `column_for_attribute` when no column
|
534
|
+
exists. It will return a null object in Rails 5.0
|
535
|
+
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/15878))
|
536
|
+
|
537
|
+
* Deprecated using `.joins`, `.preload` and `.eager_load` with associations
|
538
|
+
that depends on the instance state (i.e. those defined with a scope that
|
539
|
+
takes an argument) without replacement.
|
540
|
+
([Commit](https://github.com/rails/rails/commit/ed56e596a0467390011bc9d56d462539776adac1))
|
541
|
+
|
542
|
+
* Deprecated passing Active Record objects to `.find` or `.exists?`. Call
|
543
|
+
`#id` on the objects first.
|
544
|
+
(Commit [1](https://github.com/rails/rails/commit/d92ae6ccca3bcfd73546d612efaea011270bd270),
|
545
|
+
[2](https://github.com/rails/rails/commit/d35f0033c7dec2b8d8b52058fb8db495d49596f7))
|
546
|
+
|
547
|
+
* Deprecated half-baked support for PostgreSQL range values with excluding
|
548
|
+
beginnings. We currently map PostgreSQL ranges to Ruby ranges. This conversion
|
549
|
+
is not fully possible because the Ruby range does not support excluded
|
550
|
+
beginnings.
|
551
|
+
|
552
|
+
The current solution of incrementing the beginning is not correct
|
553
|
+
and is now deprecated. For subtypes where we don't know how to increment
|
554
|
+
(e.g. `#succ` is not defined) it will raise an `ArgumentError` for ranges
|
555
|
+
with excluding beginnings.
|
556

+
|
557

+
([Commit](https://github.com/rails/rails/commit/91949e48cf41af9f3e4ffba3e5eecf9b0a08bfc3))

559
|
+
### Notable changes

560
|
+
|
561
|
+
* The PostgreSQL adapter now supports the `JSONB` datatype in PostgreSQL 9.4+.
|
562
|
+
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/16220))
|
563
|
+
|
564
|
+
* The `#references` method in migrations now supports a `type` option for
|
565
|
+
specifying the type of the foreign key (e.g. `:uuid`).
|
566
|
+
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/16231))
|
567
|
+
|
568
|
+
* Added a `:required` option to singular associations, which defines a
|
569
|
+
presence validation on the association.
|
570
|
+
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/16056))
|
571
|
+
|
572
|
+
* Introduced `ActiveRecord::Base#validate!` that raises `RecordInvalid` if the
|
573
|
+
record is invalid.
|
574
|
+
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/8639))
|
575
|
+
|
576
|
+
* `ActiveRecord::Base#reload` now behaves the same as `m = Model.find(m.id)`,
|
577
|
+
meaning that it no longer retains the extra attributes from custom
|
578
|
+
`select`s.
|
579
|
+
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/15866))
|
580
|
+
|
581
|
+
* Introduced the `bin/rake db:purge` task to empty the database for the
|
582
|
+
current environment.
|
583
|
+
([Commit](https://github.com/rails/rails/commit/e2f232aba15937a4b9d14bd91e0392c6d55be58d))
|
584
|
+
|
585
|
+
* `ActiveRecord::Dirty` now detects in-place changes to mutable values.
|
586
|
+
Serialized attributes on ActiveRecord models will no longer save when
|
587
|
+
unchanged. This also works with other types such as string columns and json
|
588
|
+
columns on PostgreSQL.
|
589
|
+
(Pull Requests [1](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/15674),

|
+
|
596
|
+
* PostgreSQL and SQLite adapters no longer add a default limit of 255
|
597
|
+
characters on string columns.
|
598
|
+
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/14579))
|
599
|
+
|
600
|
+
* `sqlite3:///some/path` now resolves to the absolute system path
|
601
|
+
`/some/path`. For relative paths, use `sqlite3:some/path` instead.
|
602
|
+
(Previously, `sqlite3:///some/path` resolved to the relative path
|
603
|
+
`some/path`. This behaviour was deprecated on Rails 4.1).
|
604
|
+
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/14569))

605
|
+

|
608
|
+
|
609
|
+
* `#touch` now accepts multiple attributes to be touched at once.
|
610

611
|
+
|
612
|
+
* Added support for fractional seconds for MySQL 5.6 and above.
|
613
|
+
(Pull Request [1](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/8240),

|
+
[2](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/14359))
|
615
|
+
|
616
|
+
* Added support for the `citext` column type in PostgreSQL adapter.
|
617
|
+
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/12523))
|
618
|
+
|
619
|
+
* Added support for user-created range types in PostgreSQL adapter.

|
+
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/16190))
|
707
|
