*Edge*
* Fixed FormTagHelper#submit_tag with :disable_with option wouldn't submit the button's value when was clicked #633 [Jose Fernandez]
* Stopped logging template compiles as it only clogs up the log [DHH]
* Changed the X-Runtime header to report in milliseconds [DHH]
* Changed BenchmarkHelper#benchmark to report in milliseconds [DHH]
* Changed logging format to be millisecond based and skip misleading stats [DHH]. Went from:
Completed in 0.10000 (4 reqs/sec) | Rendering: 0.04000 (40%) | DB: 0.00400 (4%) | 200 OK [http://example.com]
...to:
Completed in 100ms (View: 40, DB: 4) | 200 OK [http://example.com]
* Add support for shallow nesting of routes. #838 [S. Brent Faulkner]
Example :
map.resources :users, :shallow => true do |user|
user.resources :posts
end
- GET /users/1/posts (maps to PostsController#index action as usual)
named route "user_posts" is added as usual.
- GET /posts/2 (maps to PostsController#show action as if it were not nested)
Additionally, named route "post" is added too.
* Added button_to_remote helper. #3641 [Donald Piret, Tarmo Tänav]
* Deprecate render_component. Please use render_component plugin from http://github.com/rails/render_component/tree/master [Pratik]
* Routes may be restricted to lists of HTTP methods instead of a single method or :any. #407 [Brennan Dunn, Gaius Centus Novus]
map.resource :posts, :collection => { :search => [:get, :post] }
map.session 'session', :requirements => { :method => [:get, :post, :delete] }
* Deprecated implicit local assignments when rendering partials [Josh Peek]
* Introduce current_cycle helper method to return the current value without bumping the cycle. #417 [Ken Collins]
* Allow polymorphic_url helper to take url options. #880 [Tarmo Tänav]
* Switched integration test runner to use Rack processor instead of CGI [Josh Peek]
* Made AbstractRequest.if_modified_sense return nil if the header could not be parsed [Jamis Buck]
* Added back ActionController::Base.allow_concurrency flag [Josh Peek]
* AbstractRequest.relative_url_root is no longer automatically configured by a HTTP header. It can now be set in your configuration environment with config.action_controller.relative_url_root [Josh Peek]
* Update Prototype to 1.6.0.2 #599 [Patrick Joyce]
* Conditional GET utility methods. [Jeremy Kemper]
response.last_modified = @post.updated_at
response.etag = [:admin, @post, current_user]
if request.fresh?(response)
head :not_modified
else
# render ...
end
* All 2xx requests are considered successful [Josh Peek]
* Fixed that AssetTagHelper#compute_public_path shouldn't cache the asset_host along with the source or per-request proc's won't run [DHH]
* Removed config.action_view.cache_template_loading, use config.cache_classes instead [Josh Peek]
* Get buffer for fragment cache from template's @output_buffer [Josh Peek]
* Set config.action_view.warn_cache_misses = true to receive a warning if you perform an action that results in an expensive disk operation that could be cached [Josh Peek]
* Refactor template preloading. New abstractions include Renderable mixins and a refactored Template class [Josh Peek]
* Changed ActionView::TemplateHandler#render API method signature to render(template, local_assigns = {}) [Josh Peek]
* Changed PrototypeHelper#submit_to_remote to PrototypeHelper#button_to_remote to stay consistent with link_to_remote (submit_to_remote still works as an alias) #8994 [clemens]
* Add :recursive option to javascript_include_tag and stylesheet_link_tag to be used along with :all. #480 [Damian Janowski]
* Allow users to disable the use of the Accept header [Michael Koziarski]
The accept header is poorly implemented by browsers and causes strange
errors when used on public sites where crawlers make requests too. You
can use formatted urls (e.g. /people/1.xml) to support API clients in a
much simpler way.
To disable the header you need to set:
config.action_controller.use_accept_header = false
* Do not stat template files in production mode before rendering. You will no longer be able to modify templates in production mode without restarting the server [Josh Peek]
* Deprecated TemplateHandler line offset [Josh Peek]
* Allow caches_action to accept cache store options. #416. [José Valim]. Example:
caches_action :index, :redirected, :if => Proc.new { |c| !c.request.format.json? }, :expires_in => 1.hour
* Remove define_javascript_functions, javascript_include_tag and friends are far superior. [Michael Koziarski]
* Deprecate :use_full_path render option. The supplying the option no longer has an effect [Josh Peek]
* Add :as option to render a collection of partials with a custom local variable name. #509 [Simon Jefford, Pratik Naik]
render :partial => 'other_people', :collection => @people, :as => :person
This will let you access objects of @people as 'person' local variable inside 'other_people' partial template.
* time_zone_select: support for regexp matching of priority zones. Resolves #195 [Ernie Miller]
* Made ActionView::Base#render_file private [Josh Peek]
* Refactor and simplify the implementation of assert_redirected_to. Arguments are now normalised relative to the controller being tested, not the root of the application. [Michael Koziarski]
This could cause some erroneous test failures if you were redirecting between controllers
in different namespaces and wrote your assertions relative to the root of the application.
* Remove follow_redirect from controller functional tests.
If you want to follow redirects you can use integration tests. The functional test
version was only useful if you were using redirect_to :id=>...
* Fix polymorphic_url with singleton resources. #461 [Tammer Saleh]
* Replaced TemplateFinder abstraction with ViewLoadPaths [Josh Peek]
* Added block-call style to link_to [Sam Stephenson/DHH]. Example:
<% link_to(@profile) do %>
<%= @profile.name %> -- Check it out!!
<% end %>
* Performance: integration test benchmarking and profiling. [Jeremy Kemper]
* Make caching more aware of mime types. Ensure request format is not considered while expiring cache. [Jonathan del Strother]
* Drop ActionController::Base.allow_concurrency flag [Josh Peek]
* More efficient concat and capture helpers. Remove ActionView::Base.erb_variable. [Jeremy Kemper]
* Added page.reload functionality. Resolves #277. [Sean Huber]
* Fixed Request#remote_ip to only raise hell if the HTTP_CLIENT_IP and HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR doesn't match (not just if they're both present) [Mark Imbriaco, Bradford Folkens]
* Allow caches_action to accept a layout option [José Valim]
* Added Rack processor [Ezra Zygmuntowicz, Josh Peek]
*2.1.0 (May 31st, 2008)*
* InstanceTag#default_time_from_options overflows to DateTime [Geoff Buesing]
* Fixed that forgery protection can be used without session tracking (Peter Jones) [#139]
* Added session(:on) to turn session management back on in a controller subclass if the superclass turned it off (Peter Jones) [#136]
* Change the request forgery protection to go by Content-Type instead of request.format so that you can't bypass it by POSTing to "#{request.uri}.xml" [rick]
* InstanceTag#default_time_from_options with hash args uses Time.current as default; respects hash settings when time falls in system local spring DST gap [Geoff Buesing]
* select_date defaults to Time.zone.today when config.time_zone is set [Geoff Buesing]
* Fixed that TextHelper#text_field would corrypt when raw HTML was used as the value (mchenryc, Kevin Glowacz) [#80]
* Added ActionController::TestCase#rescue_action_in_public! to control whether the action under test should use the regular rescue_action path instead of simply raising the exception inline (great for error testing) [DHH]
* Reduce number of instance variables being copied from controller to view. [Pratik]
* select_datetime and select_time default to Time.zone.now when config.time_zone is set [Geoff Buesing]
* datetime_select defaults to Time.zone.now when config.time_zone is set [Geoff Buesing]

POST /posts
{"post": {"title": "Breaking News"}}
def create
@post = Post.create params[:post]
# ...
end
* add json_escape ERB util to escape html entities in json strings that are output in HTML pages. [rick]
* Provide a helper proxy to access helper methods from outside views. Closes #10839 [Josh Peek]
e.g. ApplicationController.helpers.simple_format(text)
* Improve documentation. [Xavier Noria, leethal, jerome]
* Ensure RJS redirect_to doesn't html-escapes string argument. Closes #8546 [josh, eventualbuddha, Pratik]
* Support render :partial => collection of heterogeneous elements. #11491 [Zach Dennis]
* Avoid remote_ip spoofing. [Brian Candler]
* Added support for regexp flags like ignoring case in the :requirements part of routes declarations #11421 [NeilW]
* Fixed that ActionController::Base#read_multipart would fail if boundary was exactly 10240 bytes #10886 [ariejan]
* Fixed HTML::Tokenizer (used in sanitize helper) didn't handle unclosed CDATA tags #10071 [esad, packagethief]
* Improve documentation. [Radar, Jan De Poorter, chuyeow, xaviershay, danger, miloops, Xavier Noria, Sunny Ripert]
* Fixed that FormHelper#radio_button would produce invalid ids #11298 [harlancrystal]
* Added :confirm option to submit_tag #11415 [miloops]
* Fixed NumberHelper#number_with_precision to properly round in a way that works equally on Mac, Windows, Linux (closes #11409, #8275, #10090, #8027) [zhangyuanyi]
* Allow the #simple_format text_helper to take an html_options hash for each paragraph. #2448 [Francois Beausoleil, thechrisoshow]
* Fix regression from filter refactoring where re-adding a skipped filter resulted in it being called twice. [rick]
* Refactor filters to use Active Support callbacks. #11235 [Josh Peek]
* Fixed that polymorphic routes would modify the input array #11363 [thomas.lee]
* Added :format option to NumberHelper#number_to_currency to enable better localization support #11149 [lylo]
* Fixed that TextHelper#excerpt would include one character too many #11268 [Irfy]
* Fix more obscure nested parameter hash parsing bug. #10797 [thomas.lee]
* Added ActionView::Helpers::register_javascript/stylesheet_expansion to make it easier for plugin developers to inject multiple assets. #10350 [lotswholetime]
* Fix nested parameter hash parsing bug. #10797 [thomas.lee]
* Allow using named routes in ActionController::TestCase before any request has been made. Closes #11273 [alloy]
* Fixed that sweepers defined by cache_sweeper will be added regardless of the perform_caching setting. Instead, control whether the sweeper should be run with the perform_caching setting. This makes testing easier when you want to turn perform_caching on/off [DHH]
* Make MimeResponds::Responder#any work without explicit types. Closes #11140 [jaw6]
* Better error message for type conflicts when parsing params. Closes #7962 [spicycode, matt]

* Allow file uploads in Integration Tests. Closes #11091 [RubyRedRick]
* Refactor partial rendering into a PartialTemplate class. [Pratik]
* Added that requests with JavaScript as the priority mime type in the accept header and no format extension in the parameters will be treated as though their format was :js when it comes to determining which template to render. This makes it possible for JS requests to automatically render action.js.rjs files without an explicit respond_to block [DHH]

* TestSession supports indifferent access. #7372 [tamc, Arsen7, mhackett, julik, jean.helou]
* Make assert_routing aware of the HTTP method used. #8039 [mpalmer]
e.g. assert_routing({ :method => 'put', :path => '/product/321' }, { :controller => "product", :action => "update", :id => "321" })

* Performance: optimize route recognition. Large speedup for apps with many resource routes. #10835 [oleganza]
* Make render :partial recognise form builders and use the _form partial. #10814 [djanowski]
* Allow users to declare other namespaces when using the atom feed helpers. #10304 [david.calavera]

* Fixed ActionView::Helpers::ActiveRecordHelper::form for when protect_from_forgery is used #10739 [jeremyevans]
* Provide nicer access to HTTP Headers. Instead of request.env["HTTP_REFERRER"] you can now use request.headers["Referrer"]. [Koz]
* UrlWriter respects relative_url_root. #10748 [Cheah Chu Yeow]
* The asset_host block takes the controller request as an optional second argument. Example: use a single asset host for SSL requests. #10549 [Cheah Chu Yeow, Peter B, Tom Taylor]
* Support render :text => nil. #6684 [tjennings, PotatoSalad, Cheah Chu Yeow]
* assert_response failures include the exception message. #10688 [Seth Rasmussen]
* All fragment cache keys are now by default prefixed with the "views/" namespace [DHH]
* Moved the caching stores from ActionController::Caching::Fragments::* to ActiveSupport::Cache::*. If you're explicitly referring to a store, like ActionController::Caching::Fragments::MemoryStore, you need to update that reference with ActiveSupport::Cache::MemoryStore [DHH]
* Deprecated ActionController::Base.fragment_cache_store for ActionController::Base.cache_store [DHH]
* Made fragment caching in views work for rjs and builder as well #6642 [zsombor]

* The tags created do not contain a date (http://feedvalidator.org/docs/error/InvalidTAG.html)
* IDs are not guaranteed unique
* A default self link was not provided, contrary to the documentation
* NOTE: This changes tags for existing atom entries, but at least they validate now.
* Correct indentation in tests. Closes #10671 [l.guidi]
* Fix that auto_link looks for ='s in url paths (Amazon urls have them). Closes #10640 [bgreenlee]
