*Edge*
* Allow MemCacheStore to be initialized with a MemCache object instead of addresses and options [Bryan Helmkamp]
* Change spelling of Kyev timezone to Kyiv #2613 [Alexander Dymo]
* Add ActiveSupport.parse_json_times to disable time parsing in JSON backends that don't support it or don't need it. [rick]
* Add pluggable JSON backends with support for the JSON gem. [rick]
Example: ActiveSupport::JSON.backend = "JSONGem"
All internal Rails JSON encoding is now handled by ActiveSupport::JSON.encode(). Use of #to_json is not recommended, as it may clash with other libraries that overwrite it. However, you can recover Rails specific functionality
if you really want to use #to_json.
gem 'json'
ActiveSupport::JSON.backend = "JSONGem"
class ActiveRecord::Base
alias to_json rails_to_json
end
* require 'active_support' no longer orders the whole menu of core extensions. Ask for just what you need: e.g. require 'active_support/core/time' to use timezones, durations, and stdlib date/time extensions. [Jeremy Kemper]
* Removed rarely-used DRb cache store. [Jeremy Kemper]
* TimeWithZone.name returns 'Time', to further thwart type checking [Geoff Buesing]

* Ruby 1.9.1p0 fix: URI.unescape can decode multibyte chars. #2033 [MOROHASHI Kyosuke]
* Time#to_s(:rfc822) uses #formatted_offset instead of unreliable and non-standard %z directive #1899 [Zachary Zolton]
* Make TimeWithZone#to_formatted_s an alias to TimeWithZone#to_s #1796 [Levin Alexander]
* Introduce Array.wrap(foo) to wrap the argument in an array unless it's already an array. Wraps nil as an empty array. Use instead of Array(foo) and foo.to_a since they treat String as Enumerable. [Jeremy Kemper]
* TimeWithZone#xmlschema accepts optional fraction_digits argument [#1725 state:resolved] [Nicholas Dainty]
* Object#tap shim for Ruby < 1.8.7. Similar to Object#returning, tap yields self then returns self. [Jeremy Kemper]
array.select { ... }.tap(&:inspect).map { ... }
* TimeWithZone#- gives correct result with wrapped DateTime, and with DateTime argument [Geoff Buesing]
* Updated i18n gem to version 0.1.1 #1635 [Yaroslav Markin]

* Switch from String#chars to String#mb_chars for the unicode proxy. [Manfred Stienstra]
This helps with 1.8.7 compatibility and also improves performance for some operations by reducing indirection.
* TimeWithZone #wday, #yday and #to_date avoid trip through #method_missing [Geoff Buesing]

* Changed cache benchmarking to be reported in milliseconds [David Heinemeier Hansson]
* Fix Ruby's Time marshaling bug in pre-1.9 versions of Ruby: utc instances are now correctly unmarshaled with a utc zone instead of the system local zone [#900 state:resolved] [Luca Guidi, Geoff Buesing]
* Add Array#in_groups which splits or iterates over the array in specified number of groups. #579. [Adrian Mugnolo] Example:
a = (1..10).to_a
a.in_groups(3) #=> [[1, 2, 3, 4], [5, 6, 7, nil], [8, 9, 10, nil]]

ActiveSupport::Inflector.inflections do |inflect|
inflect.human(/_cnt$/i, '\1_count')
end
'jargon_cnt'.humanize # => 'Jargon count'
* TimeWithZone: when crossing DST boundary, treat Durations of days, months or years as variable-length, and all other values as absolute length. A time + 24.hours will advance exactly 24 hours, but a time + 1.day will advance 23-25 hours, depending on the day. Ensure consistent behavior across all advancing methods [Geoff Buesing]
* Added TimeZone #=~, to support matching zones by regex in time_zone_select. #195 [Ernie Miller]

* Fixed Date#end_of_quarter to not blow up on May 31st [#289 state:resolved] (Danger)
*2.1.0 (May 31st, 2008)*
* TimeZone#to_s shows offset as GMT instead of UTC, because GMT will be more familiar to end users (see time zone selects used by Windows OS, google.com and yahoo.com.) Reverts [8370] [Geoff Buesing]
* Hash.from_xml: datetime xml types overflow to Ruby DateTime class when out of range of Time. Adding tests for utc offsets [Geoff Buesing]
* TimeWithZone #+ and #- : ensure overflow to DateTime with Numeric arg [Geoff Buesing]

* Time.zone.parse return nil for strings with no date information [Geoff Buesing]
* Time.zone.parse respects offset information in string. Resolves #105. [Scott Fleckenstein, Geoff Buesing]
* Added Ruby 1.8 implementation of Process.daemon
* Duration #since and #ago with no argument (e.g., 5.days.ago) return TimeWithZone when config.time_zone is set. Introducing Time.current, which returns Time.zone.now if config.time_zone is set, otherwise just returns Time.now [Geoff Buesing]
* Time#since behaves correctly when passed a Duration. Closes #11527 [kemiller]
* Add #getutc alias for DateTime#utc [Geoff Buesing]

* TZInfo: Removing unneeded TimezoneProxy class [Geoff Buesing]
* TZInfo: Removing unneeded TimezoneIndexDefinition, since we're not including Indexes::Timezones [Geoff Buesing]
* Removing unnecessary uses_tzinfo helper from tests, given that TZInfo is now bundled [Geoff Buesing]
* Bundling abbreviated version of TZInfo gem 0.3.8: only the classes and zone definitions required to support Rails time zone features are included. If a recent version of the full TZInfo gem is installed, this will take precedence over the bundled version [Geoff Buesing]
* TimeWithZone#marshal_load does zone lookup via Time.get_zone, so that tzinfo/Olson identifiers are handled [Geoff Buesing]

* Time, DateTime and TimeWithZone #in_time_zone defaults to Time.zone. Removing now unneeded #in_current_time_zone [Geoff Buesing]
* TZInfo caches Timezone instances in its own internal hash cache, so TimeZone::MAPPING doesn't need to cache them as well [Geoff Buesing]
* Adding TimeZone#parse [Geoff Buesing]
* Adding TimeZone#at and DateTime#to_f [Geoff Buesing]
* TimeWithZone responds to Ruby 1.9 weekday-named query methods [Geoff Buesing]

* Fixed that BufferedLogger should create its own directory if one doesn't already exist #11285 [lotswholetime]
* Fix Numeric time tests broken by DST change by anchoring them to fixed times instead of Time.now. Anchor TimeZone#now DST test to time specified with Time.at instead of Time.local to work around platform differences with Time.local and DST representation [Geoff Buesing]
* Removing unneeded #change_time_zone method from Time, DateTime and TimeWithZone [Geoff Buesing]
* TimeZone #local and #now correctly enforce DST rules [Geoff Buesing]

* Adding TimeWithZone#between? [Geoff Buesing]
* Time.=== returns true for TimeWithZone instances [Geoff Buesing]

* Add String#squish and String#squish! to remove consecutive chunks of whitespace. #11123 [Jordi Bunster, Henrik N]
* Serialize BigDecimals as Floats when using to_yaml. #8746 [Ernesto Jimenez]
* Adding TimeWithZone #to_yaml, #to_datetime, #eql? and method aliases for duck-typing compatibility with Time [Geoff Buesing]
* TimeWithZone #in_time_zone returns +self+ if zone argument is the same as #time_zone [Geoff Buesing]

* TimeZone#new method renamed #local; when used with Time.zone, constructor now reads: Time.zone.local() [Geoff Buesing]
* Added Base64.encode64s to encode values in base64 without the newlines. This makes the values immediately usable as URL parameters or memcache keys without further processing [David Heinemeier Hansson]
* Remove :nodoc: entries around the ActiveSupport test/unit assertions. #10946 [dancroak, jamesh]
* Add Time.zone_default accessor for setting the default time zone. Rails::Configuration.time_zone sets this. #10982 [Geoff Buesing]
* cache.fetch(key, :force => true) to force a cache miss. [Jeremy Kemper]
* Support retrieving TimeZones with a Duration. TimeZone[-28800] == TimeZone[-480.minutes]. [Rick Olson]

* Adding UTC zone to TimeZone; TimeWithZone no longer has to fake UTC zone with nil [Geoff Buesing]
* Time.get_zone refactored to private method, given that the encapsulated logic is only useful internally [Geoff Buesing]
* Time.zone uses thread-local variable for thread safety. Adding Time.use_zone, for overriding Time.zone locally inside a block. Removing unneeded Time.zone_reset! [Geoff Buesing]
* TimeZone#to_s uses UTC rather than GMT; reapplying change that was undone in [8679]. #1689 [Cheah Chu Yeow]
* Time.days_in_month defaults to current year if no year is supplied as argument #10799 [Radar], uses Date.gregorian_leap? to determine leap year, and uses constant lookup to determine days in month [Geoff Buesing]
* Adding Time and DateTime #compare_with_coercion, which layers behavior on #<=> so that any combination of Time, DateTime and ActiveSupport::TimeWithZone instances can be chronologically compared [Geoff Buesing]
* TimeZone#now returns an ActiveSupport::TimeWithZone [Geoff Buesing]
* Time #in_current_time_zone and #change_time_zone_to_current return self when Time.zone is nil [Geoff Buesing]
* Remove unneeded #to_datetime_default_s alias for DateTime#to_s, given that we inherit a #to_default_s from Date that does exactly the same thing [Geoff Buesing]
* Refactor Time and DateTime #to_formatted_s: use ternary instead of nested if/else [Geoff Buesing]
* Adding Time and DateTime #formatted_offset, for outputting +HH:MM utc offset strings with cross-platform consistency [Geoff Buesing]

* Replace non-dst-aware TimeZone class with dst-aware class from tzinfo_timezone plugin. TimeZone#adjust and #unadjust are no longer available; tzinfo gem must now be present in order to perform time zone calculations, via #local_to_utc and #utc_to_local methods. [Geoff Buesing]
* Extract ActiveSupport::Callbacks from Active Record, test case setup and teardown, and ActionController::Dispatcher. #10727 [Josh Peek]
* Introducing DateTime #utc, #utc? and #utc_offset, for duck-typing compatibility with Time. Closes #10002 [Geoff Buesing]

is done to test/unit's classes.
* Document Enumerable and Hash #to_json. #9970 [Cheah Chu Yeow]
* Hash#to_xml handles symbol values. #9954 [Assaf]
* Hash#symbolize_keys behaves well with integer keys. #9890 [PotatoSalad]
* Multibyte: String#slice supports regexp argument. #9646 [yob]
* object.duplicable? returns true if object.dup is safe. False for nil, true, false, symbols, and numbers; true otherwise. #9333 [sur]

* Added Hash#except which is the inverse of Hash#slice -- return the hash except the keys that are specified [David Heinemeier Hansson]
* Added support for pluralization with a different starting letter than the singular version (cow/kine) #4929 [norri_b/Josh Susser]
* Demote Hash#to_xml to use XmlSimple#xml_in_string so it can't read files or stdin. #8453 [candlerb, Jeremy Kemper]
* Backport clean_logger changes to support ruby 1.8.2 [Mislav Marohnić]
* Added proper handling of arrays #8537 [Josh Susser]
Before:
Hash.from_xml '<images></images>'
# => {:images => nil}
Hash.from_xml '<images><image>foo.jpg</image></images>'
# => {:images => {:image => "foo.jpg"}}
Hash.from_xml '<images><image>foo.jpg</image><image>bar.jpg</image></images>'

# => {:images => ["foo.jpg", "bar.jpg"]}
* Improve Time and Date test coverage. #8646 [Josh Peek]
* Add Date#since, ago, beginning_of_day, and end_of_day. Date + seconds works now. #8575 [Geoff Buesing]

* Document Object#blank?. #6491 [Chris Mear]
* Date, Time, and DateTime#to_json. #8399 [wycats]

* Added assert_difference and assert_no_difference to test/unit assertions [Tobias Lütke]
* Removed breakpointer and Binding.of_caller in favor of relying on ruby-debug by Kent Sibilev since the breakpointer has been broken since Ruby 1.8.4 and will not be coming back [David Heinemeier Hansson]
* Added parsing of file type in Hash.xml_in so you can easily do file uploads with base64 from an API [David Heinemeier Hansson]
<person>
<name>David</name>
<avatar type="file" name="me.jpg" content_type="image/jpg">R0lGODlhkACZAPUAAM5lcfjrtMQCG=\n</avatar>
</person>
...becomes:
attributes = { :person => { :name => "David", :avatar => #<StringIO> } }
attributes[:person][:avatar].content_type # => "image/jpg"
attributes[:person][:avatar].original_filename # => "me.jpg"
attributes[:person][:avatar].read # => binary data of the file
Which is duck-type compatible with the files that you get when doing multipart uploads through HTML.

* Hash#to_xml supports YAML attributes. #7502 [jonathan]
* Refactor ActiveSupport::JSON to be less obtuse. Add support for JSON decoding by way of Syck with ActiveSupport::JSON.decode(json_string). Prevent hash keys that are JavaScript reserved words from being unquoted during encoding. [Sam Stephenson]

* Fix remove_constant to correctly handle constant names of the form "::A::...". References #6720. [Nicholas Seckar]
* Fixed Array#to_xml when it contains a series of hashes (each piece would get its own XML declaration) #6610 [thkarcher/cyu]
* Added Time#to_s(:time) which will just return H:M, like 17:44 [David Heinemeier Hansson]
* Add Module#attr_accessor_with_default to initialize value of attribute before setting it. Closes #6538. [Stuart Halloway, Marcel Molina Jr.]
* Hash#to_xml handles keys with the same name as Kernel methods. #6613 [Jonathan del Strother]
* Added Time#end_of_day to get 23:59:59 of that day [David Heinemeier Hansson]

* Fix unicode JSON regexp for Onigurama compatibility. #6494 [whitley]
* update XmlSimple to 1.0.10. Closes #6532. [Nick Sieger]

* next_week respects DST changes. #6483, #5617, #2353, #2509, #4551 [marclove, Rob Biedenharn, rails@roetzel.de, jsolson@damogran.org, drbrain@segment7.net]
* Expose methods added to Enumerable in the documentation, such as group_by. Closes #6170. [sergeykojin@gmail.com, Marcel Molina Jr.]

* Make core_ext/string/access.rb multibyte safe. Closes #6388 [Manfred Stienstra]
* Make String#chars slicing behaviour consistent with String. Closes #6387 [Manfred Stienstra]
* Pull in latest multibyte patch. Closes #6346 [Manfred Stienstra]
* Add ActiveSupport::Multibyte. Provides String#chars which lets you deal with strings as a sequence of chars, not of bytes. Closes #6242 [Julian Tarkhanov, Manfred Stienstra, Thijs van der Vossen & Jan Behrens]
* Fix issue with #class_inheritable_accessor saving updates to the parent class when initialized with an Array or Hash [mojombo]
* Hash#to_xml supports Bignum and BigDecimal. #6313 [edibiase]
* Don't undefine #class in OptionMerger [Rick Olson]

* alias_method_chain works with accessor= methods also. #6153 [Caio Chassot]
* Fix loadable_constants_for_path to handle load paths that do not end with a slash. [Nicholas Seckar]
* Fix logic error in determining what was loaded by a given file. Closes #6039. [Nicholas Seckar]

<written-on type="date"></written-on> # => nil # RIGHT
* Tighten rescue clauses. #5985 [james@grayproductions.net]

* Greatly increased performance of String.to_json, which speeds up RJS considerably on large pages, fixes #3473 [Shugo Maeda]
* Detect missing_constants calls from removed modules and fail accordingly. [Nicholas Seckar]
* Stop using defined? in Dependencies.qualified_const_defined? since defined? may invoke const_missing. [Nicholas Seckar]
* Dependencies can autoload directories of nested classes. [Jeremy Kemper]
Example:
invoice.rb class Invoice
invoice/lineitem.rb class Invoice::Lineitem
* Add Deprecation.silence so that Reloadable does not scold itself. [Nicholas Seckar]
* Add debugging logging to Dependencies. Currently can be enabled with Dependencies.log_activity = true; adding to Initializer and documenting is forthcoming. [Nicholas Seckar]
* Replace Reloadable with improvements to the Dependencies mechanism. [Nicholas Seckar]
* DateTime#to_time gives hour/minute/second resolution. #5747 [jon.evans@pobox.com]
* attr_internal to support namespacing and deprecation. Like attr_* except backed by internally-named instance variable. Set attr_internal_naming_format to change the format from the default '@_%s'. [Jeremy Kemper]
# def foo() @foo__rofl end
# def foo=(v) @foo__rofl = v end
self.attr_internal_naming_format = '@%s__rofl'
attr_internal :foo
* Raise fully qualified names upon name errors. #5533 [Lars Pind, Nicholas Seckar]
* Add extention to obtain the missing constant from NameError instances. [Nicholas Seckar]
* Thoroughly document inflections. #5700 [petermichaux@gmail.com]
* Added Module#alias_attribute [Jamis/David Heinemeier Hansson]. Example:
class Content < ActiveRecord::Base
# has a title attribute
end
class Email < ActiveRecord::Base
alias_attribute :subject, :title
end
e = Email.find(1)
e.title # => "Superstars"
e.subject # => "Superstars"
e.subject? # => true
e.subject = "Megastars"
e.title # => "Megastars"
* Deprecation: easier to work with warning behavior as procs; default behaviors for each environment so users needn't update env.rb; and testing pleasure with assert_deprecated, assert_not_deprecated. [Jeremy Kemper]
By default, test prints to $stderr, dev logs, production ignores.
Provide your own per-environment in e.g. config/environments/development.rb:
ActiveSupport::Deprecation.behavior = Proc.new { |message| raise message }
* First cut of the Rails Deprecation system. [Michael Koziarski]
* Strip boolean XML content before checking for 'true' [Rick Olson]
* Customize default BigDecimal formatting. References #5672 [Dave Thomas]
* Correctly convert <foo nil="true"> to nil when using Hash.create_from_xml. [Rick Olson]
* Optional identity for Enumerable#sum defaults to zero. #5657 [gensym@mac.com]
* HashWithIndifferentAccess shouldn't confuse false and nil. #5601 [Shugo Maeda]
* Fixed HashWithIndifferentAccess#default #5586 [chris@seagul.co.uk]
* More compatible Hash.create_from_xml. #5523 [nunemaker@gmail.com]
* Added Enumerable#sum for calculating a sum from the elements [David Heinemeier Hansson, jonathan@daikini.com]. Examples:
[1, 2, 3].sum
payments.sum { |p| p.price * p.tax_rate }
payments.sum(&:price)
This is instead of payments.inject(0) { |sum, p| sum + p.price }
* Correct and clarify Array#to_sentence docs. #5458 [brad@madriska.com]
* alias_method_chain preserves method punctuation so foo, foo?, and foo! may be chained with the same feature. [Jeremy Kemper]
Example:
alias_method_chain :save!, :validation
is equivalent to
alias_method :save_without_validation!, :save!
alias_method :save!, :save_with_validation!
* Enhance Symbol#to_proc so it works with list objects, such as multi-dimensional arrays. Closes #5295 [nov@yo.rim.or.jp]. Example:
{1 => "one", 2 => "two", 3 => "three"}.sort_by(&:first).map(&:last)
#=> ["one", "two", "three"]
* Added Hash.create_from_xml(string) which will create a hash from a XML string and even typecast if possible [David Heinemeier Hansson]. Example:
Hash.create_from_xml <<-EOT
<note>
<title>This is a note</title>
<created-at type="date">2004-10-10</created-at>
</note>
EOT
...would return:
{ :note => { :title => "This is a note", :created_at => Date.new(2004, 10, 10) } }
* Added Jim Weirich's excellent FlexMock class to vendor (Copyright 2003, 2004 by Jim Weirich (jim@weriichhouse.org)) -- it's not automatically required, though, so require 'flexmock' is still necessary [David Heinemeier Hansson]
* Fixed that Module#alias_method_chain should work with both foo? foo! and foo at the same time #4954 [anna@wota.jp]
* to_xml fixes, features, and speedup: introduce :dasherize option that converts updated_at to updated-at if true (the existing default); binary columns get encoding="base64" attribute; nil values get nil="true" attribute to distinguish empty values; add type information for float columns; allow arbitrarily deep :include; include SQL type information as the type attribute. #4989 [Blair Zajac <blair@orcaware.com>]
* Add OrderedHash#values. [Sam Stephenson]
* Added Array#to_s(:db) that'll produce a comma-separated list of ids [David Heinemeier Hansson]. Example:
Purchase.find(:all, :conditions => "product_id IN (#{shops.products.to_s(:db)})"
* Normalize classify's argument to a String so that it plays nice with Symbols. [Marcel Molina Jr.]
* Strip out leading schema name in classify. References #5139. [Michael Schoen]
* Remove Enumerable#first_match since break(value) handles the use case well enough. [Nicholas Seckar]
Enumerable#first_match was like detect, but instead of returning the matching element, the yielded value returned. For example:
user_xml = adapters(:from => User, :to => Xml).first_match do |adapter|
adapter.adapt @user
end
But this is just as easily done with:
user_xml = adapters(:from => User, :to => Xml).each do
break adapter.adapt(@user)
end
* Make Array#in_groups_of just return the grouped collection if a block isn't given. [Marcel Molina Jr.]
* Don't destroy a HashWithIndifferentAccess if symbolize_keys! or stringify_keys! is called on it. Closes #5076. [Marcel Molina Jr., guy.naor@famundo.com]
* Document Module::delegate. #5002 [pergesu@gmail.com]
* Replace alias method chaining with Module#alias_method_chain. [Marcel Molina Jr.]
* Strip out punctuation on predicates or bang methods being aliased with alias_method_chain since target?_without_feature is not a valid method name. Add tests for Module#alias_method_chain. [Marcel Molina Jr.]
* Replace Ruby's deprecated append_features in favor of included. [Marcel Molina Jr.]
* Allow default options in with_options to be overridden. Closes #4480. [murphy@cYcnus.de]
* Added Module#alias_method_chain [Jamis Buck]
* Updated to Builder 2.0 [David Heinemeier Hansson]
* Add Array#split for dividing arrays into one or more subarrays by value or block. [Sam Stephenson]
*1.3.1* (April 6th, 2006)
* Clean paths inside of exception messages and traces. [Nicholas Seckar]
* Add Pathname.clean_within for cleaning all the paths inside of a string. [Nicholas Seckar]
* provide an empty Dependencies::LoadingModule.load which prints deprecation warnings. Lets 1.0 applications function with .13-style environment.rb.
*1.3.0* (March 27th, 2006)
* When possible, avoid incorrectly obtaining constants from parent modules. Fixes #4221. [Nicholas Seckar]
* Add more tests for dependencies; refactor existing cases. [Nicholas Seckar]
* Move Module#parent and Module#as_load_path into core_ext. Add Module#parent. [Nicholas Seckar]
* Add CachingTools::HashCaching to simplify the creation of nested, autofilling hashes. [Nicholas Seckar]
* Remove a hack intended to avoid unloading the same class twice, but which would not work anyways. [Nicholas Seckar]
* Update Object.subclasses_of to locate nested classes. This affects Object.remove_subclasses_of in that nested classes will now be unloaded. [Nicholas Seckar]
* Update Object.remove_subclasses_of to use Class.remove_class, reducing duplication. [Nicholas Seckar]
* Added Fixnum#seconds for consistency, so you can say 5.minutes + 30.seconds instead of 5.minutes + 30 #4389 [François Beausoleil]
* Added option to String#camelize to generate lower-cased camel case by passing in :lower, like "super_man".camelize(:lower) # => "superMan" [David Heinemeier Hansson]
* Added Hash#diff to show the difference between two hashes [Chris McGrath]
* Added Time#advance to do precise time time calculations for cases where a month being approximated to 30 days won't do #1860 [Rick Olson]
* Enhance Inflector.underscore to convert '-' into '_' (as the inverse of Inflector.dasherize) [Jamis Buck]
* Switched to_xml to use the xml schema format for datetimes. This allows the encoding of time zones and should improve operability. [Michael Koziarski]
* Added a note to the documentation for the Date related Numeric extensions to indicate that they're
approximations and shouldn't be used for critical calculations. [Michael Koziarski]
* Added Hash#to_xml and Array#to_xml that makes it much easier to produce XML from basic structures [David Heinemeier Hansson]. Examples:
{ :name => "David", :street_name => "Paulina", :age => 26, :moved_on => Date.new(2005, 11, 15) }.to_xml
...returns:
<person>
<street-name>Paulina</street-name>
<name>David</name>
<age type="integer">26</age>
<moved-on type="date">2005-11-15</moved-on>
</person>
* Moved Jim Weirich's wonderful Builder from Action Pack to Active Support (it's simply too useful to be stuck in AP) [David Heinemeier Hansson]
* Fixed that Array#to_sentence will return "" on an empty array instead of ", and" #3842, #4031 [rubyonrails@beautifulpixel.com]
* Add Enumerable#group_by for grouping collections based on the result of some
block. Useful, for example, for grouping records by date.
ex.
latest_transcripts.group_by(&:day).each do |day, transcripts|
p "#{day} -> #{transcripts.map(&:class) * ', '}"
end
"2006-03-01 -> Transcript"
"2006-02-28 -> Transcript"
"2006-02-27 -> Transcript, Transcript"
"2006-02-26 -> Transcript, Transcript"
Add Array#in_groups_of, for iterating over an array in groups of a certain
size.
ex.
%w(1 2 3 4 5 6 7).in_groups_of(3) {|g| p g}
["1", "2", "3"]
["4", "5", "6"]
["7", nil, nil]
[Marcel Molina Jr., Sam Stephenson]
* Added Kernel#daemonize to turn the current process into a daemon that can be killed with a TERM signal [David Heinemeier Hansson]
* Add 'around' methods to Logger, to make it easy to log before and after messages for a given block as requested in #3809. [Michael Koziarski] Example:
logger.around_info("Start rendering component (#{options.inspect}): ",
"\n\nEnd of component rendering") { yield }
* Added Time#beginning_of_quarter #3607 [cohen.jeff@gmail.com]
* Fix Object.subclasses_of to only return currently defined objects [Jonathan Viney <jonathan@bluewire.net.nz>]
* Fix constantize to properly handle names beginning with '::'. [Nicholas Seckar]
* Make String#last return the string instead of nil when it is shorter than the limit [Scott Barron].
* Added delegation support to Module that allows multiple delegations at once (unlike Forwardable in the stdlib) [David Heinemeier Hansson]. Example:
class Account < ActiveRecord::Base
has_one :subscription
delegate :free?, :paying?, :to => :subscription
delegate :overdue?, :to => "subscription.last_payment"
end
account.free? # => account.subscription.free?
account.overdue? # => account.subscription.last_payment.overdue?
* Fix Reloadable to handle the case where a class that has been 'removed' has not yet been garbage collected. [Nicholas Seckar]
* Don't allow Reloadable to be included into Modules.
* Remove LoadingModule. [Nicholas Seckar]
* Add documentation for Reloadable::Subclasses. [Nicholas Seckar]
* Add Reloadable::Subclasses which handles the common case where a base class should not be reloaded, but its subclasses should be. [Nicholas Seckar]
* Further improvements to reloading code [Nicholas Seckar, Trevor Squires]
- All classes/modules which include Reloadable can define reloadable? for fine grained control of reloading
- Class.remove_class uses Module#parent to access the parent module
- Class.remove_class expanded to handle multiple classes in a single call
- LoadingModule.clear! has been removed as it is no longer required
- Module#remove_classes_including has been removed in favor of Reloadable.reloadable_classes
* Added reusable reloading support through the inclusion of the Relodable module that all subclasses of ActiveRecord::Base, ActiveRecord::Observer, ActiveController::Base, and ActionMailer::Base automatically gets. This means that these classes will be reloaded by the dispatcher when Dependencies.mechanism = :load. You can make your own models reloadable easily:
class Setting
include Reloadable
end
Reloading a class is done by removing its constant which will cause it to be loaded again on the next reference. [David Heinemeier Hansson]
* Added auto-loading support for classes in modules, so Conductor::Migration will look for conductor/migration.rb and Conductor::Database::Settings will look for conductor/database/settings.rb [Nicholas Seckar]
* Add Object#instance_exec, like instance_eval but passes its arguments to the block. (Active Support will not override the Ruby 1.9 implementation of this method.) [Sam Stephenson]
* Add Proc#bind(object) for changing a proc or block's self by returning a Method bound to the given object. Based on why the lucky stiff's "cloaker" method. [Sam Stephenson]
* Fix merge and dup for hashes with indifferent access #3404 [Ken Miller]
* Fix the requires in option_merger_test to unbreak AS tests. [Sam Stephenson]
* Make HashWithIndifferentAccess#update behave like Hash#update by returning the hash. #3419, #3425 [asnem@student.ethz.ch, JanPrill@blauton.de, Marcel Molina Jr.]
* Add ActiveSupport::JSON and Object#to_json for converting Ruby objects to JSON strings. [Sam Stephenson]
* Add Object#with_options for DRYing up multiple calls to methods having shared options. [Sam Stephenson] Example:
ActionController::Routing::Routes.draw do |map|
# Account routes
map.with_options(:controller => 'account') do |account|
account.home '', :action => 'dashboard'
account.signup 'signup', :action => 'new'
account.logout 'logout', :action => 'logout'
end
end
* Introduce Dependencies.warnings_on_first_load setting. If true, enables warnings on first load of a require_dependency. Otherwise, loads without warnings. Disabled (set to false) by default. [Jeremy Kemper]
* Active Support is warnings-safe. #1792 [Eric Hodel]
* Introduce enable_warnings counterpart to silence_warnings. Turn warnings on when loading a file for the first time if Dependencies.mechanism == :load. Common mistakes such as redefined methods will print warnings to stderr. [Jeremy Kemper]
* Add Symbol#to_proc, which allows for, e.g. [:foo, :bar].map(&:to_s). [Marcel Molina Jr.]
* Added the following methods [Marcel Molina Jr., Sam Stephenson]:
* Object#copy_instance_variables_from(object) to copy instance variables from one object to another
* Object#extended_by to get an instance's included/extended modules
* Object#extend_with_included_modules_from(object) to extend an instance with the modules from another instance
*1.2.5* (December 13th, 2005)
* Become part of Rails 1.0
* Rename Version constant to VERSION. #2802 [Marcel Molina Jr.]
*1.2.3* (November 7th, 2005)
* Change Inflector#constantize to use eval instead of const_get. [Nicholas Seckar]
* Fix const_missing handler to ignore the trailing '.rb' on files when comparing paths. [Nicholas Seckar]
* Define kernel.rb methods in "class Object" instead of "module Kernel" to work around a Windows peculiarity [Sam Stephenson]
* Fix broken tests caused by incomplete loading of active support. [Nicholas Seckar]
* Fix status pluralization bug so status_codes doesn't get pluralized as statuses_code. #2758 [keithm@infused.org]
* Added Kernel#silence_stderr to silence stderr for the duration of the given block [Sam Stephenson]
* Changed Kernel#` to print a message to stderr (like Unix) instead of raising Errno::ENOENT on Win32 [Sam Stephenson]
* Changed 0.blank? to false rather than true since it violates everyone's expectation of blankness. #2518, #2705 [rails@jeffcole.net]
* When loading classes using const_missing, raise a NameError if and only if the file we tried to load was not present. [Nicholas Seckar]
* Added petabytes and exebytes to numeric extensions #2397 [timct@mac.com]
* Added Time#end_of_month to accompany Time#beginning_of_month #2514 [Jens-Christian Fischer]
*1.2.2* (October 26th, 2005)
* Set Logger.silencer = false to disable Logger#silence. Useful for debugging fixtures.
* Add title case method to String to do, e.g., 'action_web_service'.titlecase # => 'Action Web Service'. [Marcel Molina Jr.]
*1.2.1* (October 19th, 2005)
* Classify generated routing code as framework code to avoid appearing in application traces. [Nicholas Seckar]
* Show all framework frames in the framework trace. [Nicholas Seckar]
*1.2.0* (October 16th, 2005)
* Update Exception extension to show the first few framework frames in an application trace. [Nicholas Seckar]
* Added Exception extension to provide support for clean backtraces. [Nicholas Seckar]
* Updated whiny nil to be more concise and useful. [Nicholas Seckar]
* Added Enumerable#first_match [Nicholas Seckar]
* Fixed that Time#change should also reset usec when also resetting minutes #2459 [ikeda@dream.big.or.jp]

* Replace '%e' from long and short time formats as Windows does not support it. #2344. [Tom Ward <tom@popdog.net>]
* Added to_s(:db) to Range, so you can get "BETWEEN '2005-12-10' AND '2005-12-12'" from Date.new(2005, 12, 10)..Date.new(2005, 12, 12) (and likewise with Times)
* Moved require_library_or_gem into Kernel. #1992 [Michael Schuerig <michael@schuerig.de>]
* Add :rfc822 as an option for Time#to_s (to get rfc822-formatted times)
* Chain the const_missing hook to any previously existing hook so rails can play nicely with rake
* Clean logger is compatible with both 1.8.2 and 1.8.3 Logger. #2263 [Michael Schuerig <michael@schuerig.de>]

inflect.irregular 'octopus', 'octopi'
inflect.uncountable "equipment"
end
* Added String#at, String#from, String#to, String#first, String#last in ActiveSupport::CoreExtensions::String::Access to ease access to individual characters and substrings in a string serving basically as human names for range access.

* Fixed that Time#midnight would have a non-zero usec on some platforms #1836
* Fixed inflections of "index/indices" #1766 [damn_pepe@gmail.com]

* Made 1.year == 365.25.days to account for leap years. This allows you to do User.find(:all, :conditions => ['birthday > ?', 50.years.ago]) without losing a lot of days. #1488 [tuxie@dekadance.se]
* Added an exception if calling id on nil to WhinyNil #584 [kevin-temp@writesoon.com]

* Added silencing to the default Logger class
*1.0.4* (19th April, 2005)
* Fixed that in some circumstances controllers outside of modules may have hidden ones inside modules. For example, admin/content might have been hidden by /content. #1075 [Nicholas Seckar]
* Fixed inflection of perspectives and similar words #1045 [Thijs van der Vossen]
* Added Fixnum#even? and Fixnum#odd?
* Fixed problem with classes being required twice. Object#const_missing now uses require_dependency to load files. It used to use require_or_load which would cause models to be loaded twice, which was not good for validations and other class methods #971 [Nicholas Seckar]
*1.0.3* (27th March, 2005)
* Fixed Inflector.pluralize to handle capitalized words #932 [Jeremy Kemper]
* Added Object#suppress which allows you to make a saner choice around with exceptions to swallow #980. Example:

1/0 rescue nil # BAD, EVIL, DIRTY.
*1.0.2* (22th March, 2005)
* Added Kernel#returning -- a Ruby-ized realization of the K combinator, courtesy of Mikael Brockman.
def foo
returning values = [] do
values << 'bar'
values << 'baz'
end
end
foo # => ['bar', 'baz']
*1.0.1* (7th March, 2005)
* Fixed Hash#indifferent_access to also deal with include? and fetch and nested hashes #726 [Nicholas Seckar]
* Added Object#blank? -- see http://redhanded.hobix.com/inspect/objectBlank.html #783 [_why the lucky stiff]
* Added inflection rules for "sh" words, like "wish" and "fish" #755 [phillip@pjbsoftware.com]
* Fixed an exception when using Ajax based requests from Safari because Safari appends a \000 to the post body. Symbols can't have \000 in them so indifferent access would throw an exception in the constructor. Indifferent hashes now use strings internally instead. #746 [Tobias Lütke]
* Added String#to_time and String#to_date for wrapping ParseDate
*1.0.0* (24th February, 2005)
* Added TimeZone as the first of a number of value objects that among others Active Record can use rich value objects using composed_of #688 [Jamis Buck]
* Added Date::Conversions for getting dates in different convenient string representations and other objects
* Added Time::Conversions for getting times in different convenient string representations and other objects
* Added Time::Calculations to ask for things like Time.now.tomorrow, Time.now.yesterday, Time.now.months_ago(4) #580 [DP|Flurin]. Examples:
"Later today" => now.in(3.hours),
"Tomorrow morning" => now.tomorrow.change(:hour => 9),
"Tomorrow afternoon" => now.tomorrow.change(:hour => 14),
"In a couple of days" => now.tomorrow.tomorrow.change(:hour => 9),
"Next monday" => now.next_week.change(:hour => 9),
"In a month" => now.next_month.change(:hour => 9),
"In 6 months" => now.months_since(6).change(:hour => 9),
"In a year" => now.in(1.year).change(:hour => 9)
* Upgraded to breakpoint 92 which fixes:
* overload IRB.parse_opts(), fixes #443
=> breakpoints in tests work even when running them via rake
* untaint handlers, might fix an issue discussed on the Rails ML
* added verbose mode to breakpoint_client
* less noise caused by breakpoint_client by default
* ignored TerminateLineInput exception in signal handler
=> quiet exit on Ctrl-C
* Fixed Inflector for words like "news" and "series" that are the same in plural and singular #603 [echion], #615 [marcenuc]
* Added Hash#stringify_keys and Hash#stringify_keys!
* Added IndifferentAccess as a way to wrap a hash by a symbol-based store that also can be accessed by string keys
* Added Inflector.constantize to turn "Admin::User" into a reference for the constant Admin::User
* Added that Inflector.camelize and Inflector.underscore can deal with modules like turning "Admin::User" into "admin/user" and back
* Added Inflector.humanize to turn attribute names like employee_salary into "Employee salary". Used by automated error reporting in AR.
* Added availability of class inheritable attributes to the masses #477 [Jeremy Kemper]
class Foo
class_inheritable_reader :read_me
class_inheritable_writer :write_me
class_inheritable_accessor :read_and_write_me
class_inheritable_array :read_and_concat_me
class_inheritable_hash :read_and_update_me
end
# Bar gets a clone of (not a reference to) Foo's attributes.
class Bar < Foo
end
Bar.read_and_write_me == Foo.read_and_write_me
Bar.read_and_write_me = 'bar'
Bar.read_and_write_me != Foo.read_and_write_me
* Added Inflections as an extension on String, so Inflector.pluralize(Inflector.classify(name)) becomes name.classify.pluralize #476 [Jeremy Kemper]
* Added Byte operations to Numeric, so 5.5.megabytes + 200.kilobytes #461 [Marcel Molina Jr.]
* Fixed that Dependencies.reload can't load the same file twice #420 [Kent Sibilev]
* Added Fixnum#ago/until, Fixnum#since/from_now #450 [Jeremy Kemper]
* Added that Inflector now accepts Symbols and Classes by calling .to_s on the word supplied
* Added time unit extensions to Fixnum that'll return the period in seconds, like 2.days + 4.hours.
