* Remove the option `encode_special_chars` misnomer from `strip_tags`
As of rails-html-sanitizer v1.0.3, the sanitizer will ignore the
`encode_special_chars` option.
Fixes #28060.
*Andrew Hood*
## Rails 5.1.0.beta1 (February 23, 2017) ##
* Change the ERB handler from Erubis to Erubi.
Erubi is an Erubis fork that's svelte, simple, and currently maintained.
Plus it supports `--enable-frozen-string-literal` in Ruby 2.3+.
Compatibility: Drops support for `<%===` tags for debug output.
These were an unused, undocumented side effect of the Erubis
implementation.
Deprecation: The Erubis handler will be removed in Rails 5.2, for the
handful of folks using it directly.
*Jeremy Evans*
* Allow render locals to be assigned to instance variables in a view.
Fixes #27480.
*Andrew White*
* Add `check_parameters` option to `current_page?` which makes it more strict.
*Maksym Pugach*
* Return correct object name in form helper method after `fields_for`.
Fixes #26931.
*Yuji Yaginuma*
* Use `ActionView::Resolver.caching?` (`config.action_view.cache_template_loading`)
to enable template recompilation.
Before it was enabled by `consider_all_requests_local`, which caused
recompilation in tests.
*Max Melentiev*
* Add `form_with` to unify `form_tag` and `form_for` usage.
Used like `form_tag` (where just the open tag is output):
```erb
<%= form_with scope: :post, url: super_special_posts_path %>
```
Used like `form_for`:
```erb
<%= form_with model: @post do |form| %>
<%= form.text_field :title %>
<% end %>
```
*Kasper Timm Hansen*, *Marek Kirejczyk*
* Add `fields` form helper method.
```erb
<%= fields :comment, model: @comment do |fields| %>
<%= fields.text_field :title %>
<% end %>
```
Can also be used within form helpers such as `form_with`.
*Kasper Timm Hansen*
* Removed deprecated `#original_exception` in `ActionView::Template::Error`.
*Rafael Mendonça França*
* Render now accepts any keys for locals, including reserved keywords.
Only locals with valid variable names get set directly. Others
will still be available in `local_assigns`.
Example of render with reserved keywords:
```erb
<%= render "example", class: "text-center", message: "Hello world!" %>
<!-- _example.html.erb: -->
<%= tag.div class: local_assigns[:class] do %>
<p><%= message %></p>
<% end %>
```
*Peter Schilling*, *Matthew Draper*
* Add `:skip_pipeline` option to several asset tag helpers
`javascript_include_tag`, `stylesheet_link_tag`, `favicon_link_tag`,
`image_tag` and `audio_tag` now accept a `:skip_pipeline` option which can
be set to true to bypass the asset pipeline and serve the assets from the
public folder.
*Richard Schneeman*
* Add `:poster_skip_pipeline` option to the `video_tag` helper
`video_tag` now accepts a `:poster_skip_pipeline` option which can be used
in combination with the `:poster` option to bypass the asset pipeline and
serve the poster image for the video from the public folder.
*Richard Schneeman*
* Show cache hits and misses when rendering partials.
Partials using the `cache` helper will show whether a render hit or missed
the cache:
```
Rendered messages/_message.html.erb in 1.2 ms [cache hit]
Rendered recordings/threads/_thread.html.erb in 1.5 ms [cache miss]
```
This removes the need for the old fragment cache logging:
```
Read fragment views/v1/2914079/v1/2914079/recordings/70182313-20160225015037000000/d0bdf2974e1ef6d31685c3b392ad0b74 (0.6ms)
Rendered messages/_message.html.erb in 1.2 ms [cache hit]
Write fragment views/v1/2914079/v1/2914079/recordings/70182313-20160225015037000000/3b4e249ac9d168c617e32e84b99218b5 (1.1ms)
Rendered recordings/threads/_thread.html.erb in 1.5 ms [cache miss]
```
Though that full output can be reenabled with
`config.action_controller.enable_fragment_cache_logging = true`.
*Stan Lo*
* Changed partial rendering with a collection to allow collections which
implement `to_a`.
Extracting the collection option had an optimization to avoid unnecessary
queries of ActiveRecord Relations by calling `#to_ary` on the given
collection. Instances of `Enumerator` or `Enumerable` are valid
collections, but they do not implement `#to_ary`. By changing this to
`#to_a`, they will now be extracted and rendered as expected.
*Steven Harman*
* New syntax for tag helpers. Avoid positional parameters and support HTML5 by default.
Example usage of tag helpers before:
```ruby
tag(:br, nil, true)
content_tag(:div, content_tag(:p, "Hello world!"), class: "strong")
<%= content_tag :div, class: "strong" do -%>
Hello world!
<% end -%>
```
Example usage of tag helpers after:
```ruby
tag.br
tag.div tag.p("Hello world!"), class: "strong"
<%= tag.div class: "strong" do %>
Hello world!
<% end %>
```
*Marek Kirejczyk*, *Kasper Timm Hansen*
* Change `datetime_field` and `datetime_field_tag` to generate `datetime-local` fields.
As a new specification of the HTML 5 the text field type `datetime` will no longer exist
and it is recommended to use `datetime-local`.
Ref: https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/forms.html#local-date-and-time-state-(type=datetime-local)
*Herminio Torres*
* Raw template handler (which is also the default template handler in Rails 5) now outputs
HTML-safe strings.
In Rails 5 the default template handler was changed to the raw template handler. Because
the ERB template handler escaped strings by default this broke some applications that
expected plain JS or HTML files to be rendered unescaped. This fixes the issue caused
by changing the default handler by changing the Raw template handler to output HTML-safe
strings.
*Eileen M. Uchitelle*
* `select_tag`'s `include_blank` option for generation for blank option tag, now adds an empty space label,
when the value as well as content for option tag are empty, so that we conform with html specification.
Ref: https://www.w3.org/TR/html5/forms.html#the-option-element.
Generation of option before:
```html
<option value=""></option>
```
Generation of option after:
```html
<option value="" label=" "></option>
```
