* Fix default `format` value in `ActiveRecord::Tasks::DatabaseTasks#schema_file`.
*James Cox*
* Dont enroll records in the transaction if they dont have commit callbacks.
That was causing a memory grow problem when creating a lot of records inside a transaction.
Fixes #15549.
*Will Bryant*, *Aaron Patterson*
* Correctly create through records when created on a has many through
association when using `where`.
Fixes #19073.
*Sean Griffin*
* Add `SchemaMigration.create_table` support any unicode charsets for MySQL.
*Ryuta Kamizono*
* PostgreSQL, no longer disables user triggers if system triggers can't be
disabled. Disabling user triggers does not fulfill what the method promises.
Rails currently requires superuser privileges for this method.
If you absolutely rely on this behavior, consider patching
`disable_referential_integrity`.
*Yves Senn*
* Restore aborted transaction state when `disable_referential_integrity` fails
due to missing permissions.
*Toby Ovod-Everett*, *Yves Senn*
* PostgreSQL, print warning message if `disable_referential_integrity` fails
due to missing permissions.
*Andrey Nering*, *Yves Senn*
* Allow `:limit` option for MySQL bigint primary key support.
Example:
create_table :foos, id: :primary_key, limit: 8 do |t|
end
# or
create_table :foos, id: false do |t|
t.primary_key :id, limit: 8
end
*Ryuta Kamizono*
* `belongs_to` will now trigger a validation error by default if the association is not present.
You can turn this off on a per-association basis with `optional: true`.
(Note this new default only applies to new Rails apps that will be generated with
`config.active_record.belongs_to_required_by_default = true` in initializer.)
*Josef Šimánek*
* Fixed ActiveRecord::Relation#becomes! and changed_attributes issues for type
column.
Fixes #17139.
*Miklos Fazekas*
* Format the time string according to the precision of the time column.
*Ryuta Kamizono*
* Allow `:precision` option for time type columns.
*Ryuta Kamizono*
* Add `ActiveRecord::Base.suppress` to prevent the receiver from being saved
during the given block.
For example, here's a pattern of creating notifications when new comments
are posted. (The notification may in turn trigger an email, a push
notification, or just appear in the UI somewhere):
class Comment < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :commentable, polymorphic: true
after_create -> { Notification.create! comment: self,
recipients: commentable.recipients }
end
That's what you want the bulk of the time. New comment creates a new
Notification. But there may well be off cases, like copying a commentable
and its comments, where you don't want that. So you'd have a concern
something like this:
module Copyable
def copy_to(destination)
Notification.suppress do
# Copy logic that creates new comments that we do not want triggering
# notifications.
end
end
end
*Michael Ryan*
* `:time` option added for `#touch`.
Fixes #18905.
*Hyonjee Joo*
* Deprecated passing of `start` value to `find_in_batches` and `find_each`
in favour of `begin_at` value.
*Vipul A M*
* Add `foreign_key_exists?` method.
*Tõnis Simo*
* Use SQL COUNT and LIMIT 1 queries for `none?` and `one?` methods if no block or limit is given,
instead of loading the entire collection to memory.
This applies to relations (e.g. `User.all`) as well as associations (e.g. `account.users`)
# Before:
users.none?
# SELECT "users".* FROM "users"
users.one?
# SELECT "users".* FROM "users"
# After:
users.none?
# SELECT 1 AS one FROM "users" LIMIT 1
users.one?
# SELECT COUNT(*) FROM "users"
*Eugene Gilburg*
* Have `enum` perform type casting consistently with the rest of Active
Record, such as `where`.
*Sean Griffin*
* `scoping` no longer pollutes the current scope of sibling classes when using
STI. e.x.
StiOne.none.scoping do
StiTwo.all
end
Fixes #18806.
*Sean Griffin*
* `remove_reference` with `foreign_key: true` removes the foreign key before
removing the column. This fixes a bug where it was not possible to remove
the column on MySQL.
Fixes #18664.
*Yves Senn*
* `find_in_batches` now accepts an `:end_at` parameter that complements the `:start`
parameter to specify where to stop batch processing.
*Vipul A M*
* Fix rounding problem for PostgreSQL timestamp column.
If timestamp column have the precision, it need to format according to
the precision of timestamp column.
*Ryuta Kamizono*
* Respect the database default charset for `schema_migrations` table.
The charset of `version` column in `schema_migrations` table is depend
on the database default charset and collation rather than the encoding
of the connection.
*Ryuta Kamizono*
* Raise `ArgumentError` when passing `nil` or `false` to `Relation#merge`.
These are not valid values to merge in a relation so it should warn the users
early.
*Rafael Mendonça França*
* Use `SCHEMA` instead of `DB_STRUCTURE` for specifying structure file.
This makes the db:structure tasks consistent with test:load_structure.
*Dieter Komendera*
* Respect custom primary keys for associations when calling `Relation#where`
Fixes #18813.
*Sean Griffin*
* Fixed several edge cases which could result in a counter cache updating
twice or not updating at all for `has_many` and `has_many :through`.
Fixes #10865.
*Sean Griffin*
* Foreign keys added by migrations were given random, generated names. This
meant a different `structure.sql` would be generated every time a developer
ran migrations on their machine.
The generated part of foreign key names is now a hash of the table name and
column name, which is consistent every time you run the migration.
*Chris Sinjakli*
* Validation errors would be raised for parent records when an association
was saved when the parent had `validate: false`. It should not be the
responsibility of the model to validate an associated object unless the
object was created or modified by the parent.
This fixes the issue by skipping validations if the parent record is
persisted, not changed, and not marked for destruction.
Fixes #17621.
*Eileen M. Uchitelle, Aaron Patterson*
* Fix n+1 query problem when eager loading nil associations (fixes #18312)
*Sammy Larbi*
* Change the default error message from `can't be blank` to `must exist` for
the presence validator of the `:required` option on `belongs_to`/`has_one` associations.
*Henrik Nygren*
* Fixed ActiveRecord::Relation#group method when argument is SQL reserved key word:
Example:
SplitTest.group(:key).count
Property.group(:value).count
*Bogdan Gusiev*
* Added the `#or` method on ActiveRecord::Relation, allowing use of the OR
operator to combine WHERE or HAVING clauses.
Example:
Post.where('id = 1').or(Post.where('id = 2'))
# => SELECT * FROM posts WHERE (id = 1) OR (id = 2)
*Sean Griffin*, *Matthew Draper*, *Gael Muller*, *Olivier El Mekki*
* Don't define autosave association callbacks twice from
`accepts_nested_attributes_for`.
Fixes #18704.
*Sean Griffin*
* Integer types will no longer raise a `RangeError` when assigning an
attribute, but will instead raise when going to the database.
Fixes several vague issues which were never reported directly. See the
commit message from the commit which added this line for some examples.
*Sean Griffin*
* Values which would error while being sent to the database (such as an
ASCII-8BIT string with invalid UTF-8 bytes on SQLite3), no longer error on
assignment. They will still error when sent to the database, but you are
given the ability to re-assign it to a valid value.
Fixes #18580.
*Sean Griffin*
* Don't remove join dependencies in `Relation#exists?`
Fixes #18632.
*Sean Griffin*
* Invalid values assigned to a JSON column are assumed to be `nil`.
Fixes #18629.
*Sean Griffin*
* Add `ActiveRecord::Base#accessed_fields`, which can be used to quickly
discover which fields were read from a model when you are looking to only
select the data you need from the database.
*Sean Griffin*
* Introduce the `:if_exists` option for `drop_table`.
Example:
drop_table(:posts, if_exists: true)
That would execute:
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS posts
If the table doesn't exist, `if_exists: false` (the default) raises an
exception whereas `if_exists: true` does nothing.
*Cody Cutrer*, *Stefan Kanev*, *Ryuta Kamizono*
* Don't run SQL if attribute value is not changed for update_attribute method.
*Prathamesh Sonpatki*
* `time` columns can now get affected by `time_zone_aware_attributes`. If you have
set `config.time_zone` to a value other than `'UTC'`, they will be treated
as in that time zone by default in Rails 5.1. If this is not the desired
behavior, you can set
ActiveRecord::Base.time_zone_aware_types = [:datetime]
A deprecation warning will be emitted if you have a `:time` column, and have
not explicitly opted out.
Fixes #3145.
*Sean Griffin*
* Tests now run after_commit callbacks. You no longer have to declare
`uses_transaction ‘test name’` to test the results of an after_commit.
after_commit callbacks run after committing a transaction whose parent
is not `joinable?`: un-nested transactions, transactions within test cases,
and transactions in `console --sandbox`.
*arthurnn*, *Ravil Bayramgalin*, *Matthew Draper*
* `nil` as a value for a binary column in a query no longer logs as
"<NULL binary data>", and instead logs as just "nil".
*Sean Griffin*
* `attribute_will_change!` will no longer cause non-persistable attributes to
be sent to the database.
Fixes #18407.
*Sean Griffin*
* Remove support for the `protected_attributes` gem.
*Carlos Antonio da Silva*, *Roberto Miranda*
* Fix accessing of fixtures having non-string labels like Fixnum.
*Prathamesh Sonpatki*
* Remove deprecated support to preload instance-dependent associations.
*Yves Senn*
* Remove deprecated support for PostgreSQL ranges with exclusive lower bounds.
*Yves Senn*
* Remove deprecation when modifying a relation with cached arel.
This raises an `ImmutableRelation` error instead.
*Yves Senn*
* Added `ActiveRecord::SecureToken` in order to encapsulate generation of
unique tokens for attributes in a model using `SecureRandom`.
*Roberto Miranda*
* Change the behavior of boolean columns to be closer to Ruby's semantics.
Before this change we had a small set of "truthy", and all others are "falsy".
Now, we have a small set of "falsy" values and all others are "truthy" matching
Ruby's semantics.
*Rafael Mendonça França*
* Deprecate `ActiveRecord::Base.errors_in_transactional_callbacks=`.
*Rafael Mendonça França*
* Change transaction callbacks to not swallow errors.
Before this change any errors raised inside a transaction callback
were getting rescued and printed in the logs.
Now these errors are not rescued anymore and just bubble up, as the other callbacks.
*Rafael Mendonça França*
* Remove deprecated `sanitize_sql_hash_for_conditions`.
*Rafael Mendonça França*
* Remove deprecated `Reflection#source_macro`.
*Rafael Mendonça França*
* Remove deprecated `symbolized_base_class` and `symbolized_sti_name`.
*Rafael Mendonça França*
* Remove deprecated `ActiveRecord::Base.disable_implicit_join_references=`.
*Rafael Mendonça França*
* Remove deprecated access to connection specification using a string accessor.
Now all strings will be handled as a URL.
*Rafael Mendonça França*
* Change the default `null` value for `timestamps` to `false`.
*Rafael Mendonça França*
* Return an array of pools from `connection_pools`.
*Rafael Mendonça França*
* Return a null column from `column_for_attribute` when no column exists.
*Rafael Mendonça França*
* Remove deprecated `serialized_attributes`.
*Rafael Mendonça França*
* Remove deprecated automatic counter caches on `has_many :through`.
*Rafael Mendonça França*
* Change the way in which callback chains can be halted.
The preferred method to halt a callback chain from now on is to explicitly
`throw(:abort)`.
In the past, returning `false` in an ActiveRecord `before_` callback had the
side effect of halting the callback chain.
This is not recommended anymore and, depending on the value of the
`config.active_support.halt_callback_chains_on_return_false` option, will
either not work at all or display a deprecation warning.
*claudiob*
* Clear query cache on rollback.
*Florian Weingarten*
* Fixed setting of foreign_key for through associations while building of new record.
Fixes #12698.
*Ivan Antropov*
* Improve a dump of the primary key support. If it is not a default primary key,
correctly dump the type and options.
Fixes #14169, #16599.
*Ryuta Kamizono*
* Format the datetime string according to the precision of the datetime field.
Incompatible to rounding behavior between MySQL 5.6 and earlier.
In 5.5, when you insert `2014-08-17 12:30:00.999999` the fractional part
is ignored. In 5.6, it's rounded to `2014-08-17 12:30:01`:
http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=68760
*Ryuta Kamizono*
* Allow precision option for MySQL datetimes.
*Ryuta Kamizono*
* Fixed automatic inverse_of for models nested in module.
*Andrew McCloud*
* Change `ActiveRecord::Relation#update` behavior so that it can
be called without passing ids of the records to be updated.
This change allows to update multiple records returned by
`ActiveRecord::Relation` with callbacks and validations.
# Before
# ArgumentError: wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)
Comment.where(group: 'expert').update(body: "Group of Rails Experts")
# After
# Comments with group expert updated with body "Group of Rails Experts"
Comment.where(group: 'expert').update(body: "Group of Rails Experts")
*Prathamesh Sonpatki*
* Fix `reaping_frequency` option when the value is a string.
This usually happens when it is configured using `DATABASE_URL`.
*korbin*
* Fix error message when trying to create an associated record and the foreign
key is missing.
Before this fix the following exception was being raised:
NoMethodError: undefined method `val' for #<Arel::Nodes::BindParam:0x007fc64d19c218>
Now the message is:
ActiveRecord::UnknownAttributeError: unknown attribute 'foreign_key' for Model.
*Rafael Mendonça França*
* When a table has a composite primary key, the `primary_key` method for
SQLite3 and PostgreSQL adapters was only returning the first field of the key.
Ensures that it will return nil instead, as Active Record doesn't support
composite primary keys.
Fixes #18070.
*arthurnn*
* `validates_size_of` / `validates_length_of` do not count records,
which are `marked_for_destruction?`.
Fixes #7247.
*Yves Senn*
* Ensure `first!` and friends work on loaded associations.
Fixes #18237.
*Sean Griffin*
* `eager_load` preserves readonly flag for associations.
Closes #15853.
*Takashi Kokubun*
* Provide `:touch` option to `save()` to accommodate saving without updating
timestamps.
Fixes #18202.
*Dan Olson*
* Provide a more helpful error message when an unsupported class is passed to
`serialize`.
Fixes #18224.
*Sean Griffin*
* Add bigint primary key support for MySQL.
Example:
create_table :foos, id: :bigint do |t|
end
*Ryuta Kamizono*
* Support for any type primary key.
Fixes #14194.
*Ryuta Kamizono*
* Dump the default `nil` for PostgreSQL UUID primary key.
*Ryuta Kamizono*
* Add a `:foreign_key` option to `references` and associated migration
methods. The model and migration generators now use this option, rather than
the `add_foreign_key` form.
*Sean Griffin*
* Don't raise when writing an attribute with an out-of-range datetime passed
by the user.
*Grey Baker*
* Replace deprecated `ActiveRecord::Tasks::DatabaseTasks#load_schema` with
`ActiveRecord::Tasks::DatabaseTasks#load_schema_for`.
*Yves Senn*
* Fixes bug with 'ActiveRecord::Type::Numeric' that causes negative values to
be marked as having changed when set to the same negative value.
Closes #18161.
*Daniel Fox*
* Introduce `force: :cascade` option for `create_table`. Using this option
will recreate tables even if they have dependent objects (like foreign keys).
`db/schema.rb` now uses `force: :cascade`. This makes it possible to
reload the schema when foreign keys are in place.
*Matthew Draper*, *Yves Senn*
* `db:schema:load` and `db:structure:load` no longer purge the database
before loading the schema. This is left for the user to do.
`db:test:prepare` will still purge the database.
Closes #17945.
*Yves Senn*
* Fix undesirable RangeError by `Type::Integer`. Add `Type::UnsignedInteger`.
*Ryuta Kamizono*
* Add `foreign_type` option to `has_one` and `has_many` association macros.
This option enables to define the column name of associated object's type for polymorphic associations.
*Ulisses Almeida*, *Kassio Borges*
* Remove deprecated behavior allowing nested arrays to be passed as query
values.
*Melanie Gilman*
* Deprecate passing a class as a value in a query. Users should pass strings
instead.
*Melanie Gilman*
* `add_timestamps` and `remove_timestamps` now properly reversible with
options.
*Noam Gagliardi-Rabinovich*
* `ActiveRecord::ConnectionAdapters::ColumnDumper#column_spec` and
`ActiveRecord::ConnectionAdapters::ColumnDumper#prepare_column_options` no
longer have a `types` argument. They should access
`connection#native_database_types` directly.
*Yves Senn*
