17 This has been extracted from rg - http://github.com/jeremymcanally/rg
18
19 Example:
20
21 # template.rb
22
23 # Install plugins from git or svn
24 plugin "will-paginate", :git => "git://github.com/mislav/will_paginate.git"
25 plugin "old-restful-auth", :svn => "http://svn.techno-weenie.net/projects/plugins/restful_authentication/"
26
27 # Add gems to environment.rb
28 gem "jeremymcanally-context"
29 gem "bluecloth"
30
31 # Vendor file. Data in a string or...
32 vendor("borrowed.rb", <<CODE
33 def helpful_method
34 do_something_helpful_here
35 end
36 CODE
37
38 # ...file data from block return value.
39 # #initializer creates a new initializer file
40 initializer("crypto.rb") do
41 salt = "--#{Time.now}--#{rand}--#{srand(Time.now.to_i)}"
42
43 "SPECIAL_SALT = '#{salt}'"
44 end
45
46 Usage:
47
48 To use a template, provide a file path or URL:
49
50 1. Using a local file :
51
52 rails <application name> -m /path/to/my/template.rb
53
54 2. Or directly from a URL :
55
56 rails <application name> --template=http://gist.github.com/31208.txt
57
58 * Extracted the process scripts (inspector, reaper, spawner) into the plugin irs_process_scripts [David Heinemeier Hansson]
59
60 * Changed Rails.root to return a Pathname object (allows for Rails.root.join('app', 'controllers') => "#{RAILS_ROOT}/app/controllers") #1482 [Damian Janowski/?]
61
62 * Added view path support for engines [David Heinemeier Hansson]
63
64 * Added that config/routes.rb files in engine plugins are automatically loaded (and reloaded when they change in dev mode) [David Heinemeier Hansson]
65
66 * Added app/[models|controllers|helpers] to the load path for plugins that has an app directory (go engines ;)) [David Heinemeier Hansson]
67
68 * Add config.preload_frameworks to load all frameworks at startup. Default to false so Rails autoloads itself as it's used. Turn this on for Passenger and JRuby. Also turned on by config.threadsafe! [Jeremy Kemper]
69
70 * Add a rake task to generate dispatchers : rake rails:generate_dispatchers [Pratik Naik]

75
76 * Added Rails.backtrace_cleaner as an accessor for the Rails::BacktraceCleaner instance used by the framework to cut down on backtrace noise and config/initializers/backtrace_silencers.rb to add your own (or turn them all off) [David Heinemeier Hansson]
77
78 * Switch from Test::Unit::TestCase to ActiveSupport::TestCase. [Jeremy Kemper]
79
80 * Added config.i18n settings gatherer to config/environment, auto-loading of all locales in config/locales/*.rb,yml, and config/locales/en.yml as a sample locale [David Heinemeier Hansson]
81
82 * BACKWARDS INCOMPATIBLE: Renamed application.rb to application_controller.rb and removed all the special casing that was in place to support the former. You must do this rename in your own application when you upgrade to this version [David Heinemeier Hansson]
83
84
85 *2.2.1 [RC2] (November 14th, 2008)*
86

118
119 * Fix discrepancies with loading rails/init.rb from gems.
120
121 * Plugins check for the gem init path (rails/init.rb) before the standard plugin init path (init.rb) [Jacek Becela]

149
150 rake gems:unpack # unpacks all gems

162 Enables or disables plugin reloading.
163
164 config.reload_plugins = true
165
166 You can get around this setting per plugin.
167 If #reload_plugins? == false (DEFAULT), add this to your plugin's init.rb to make it reloadable:
168
169 Dependencies.load_once_paths.delete lib_path

181
182 # NEW
183 config.gem "ruby-openid", :lib => "openid", :version => "1.1.4"
184 config.gem "ruby-yadis", :lib => "yadis", :version => "0.3.4"
185
186 config.after_initialize do
187 ActionController::Base.send :include, OpenIdAuthentication
188 end
189
190 * Added config.gem for specifying which gems are required by the application, as well as rake tasks for installing and freezing gems. [Rick Olson]

195 config.gem "aws-s3", :lib => "aws/s3"
196 end
197
198 # List required gems.
199 rake gems
200
201 # Install all required gems:
202 rake gems:install
203
204 # Unpack specified gem to vendor/gems/gem_name-x.x.x
205 rake gems:unpack GEM=bj
206
207 * Removed the default .htaccess configuration as there are so many good deployment options now (kept it as an example in README) [David Heinemeier Hansson]
208
209 * config.time_zone accepts TZInfo::Timezone identifiers as well as Rails TimeZone identifiers [Geoff Buesing]
210

212
213 * Stop adding the antiquated test/mocks/* directories and only add them to the path if they're still there for legacy reasons [David Heinemeier Hansson]
214

228
229 * Add config.time_zone for configuring the default Time.zone value. #10982 [Geoff Buesing]
230
231 * Added support for installing plugins hosted at git repositories #11294 [Jack Danger Canty]
232
233 * Fixed that script/generate would not look for plugin generators in plugin_paths #11000 [glv]

235 * Fixed database rake tasks to work with charset/collation and show proper error messages on failure. Closes #11301 [matt]
236
237 * Added a -e/--export to script/plugin install, uses svn export. #10847 [jon@blankpad.net)]

239 * Reshuffle load order so that routes and observers are initialized after plugins and app initializers. Closes #10980 [Rick Olson]
240
241 * Git support for script/generate. #10690 [ssoroka]
242
243 * Update scaffold to use labels instead of bold tags. Closes #10757 [zach-inglis-lt3]

256
257
258 *2.0.2* (December 16th, 2007)
259
260 * Changed the default database from mysql to sqlite3, so now running "rails myapp" will have a config/database.yml that's setup for SQLite3 (which in OS X Leopard is installed by default, so is the gem, so everything Just Works with no database configuration at all). To get a Rails application preconfigured for MySQL, just run "rails -d mysql myapp" [David Heinemeier Hansson]
261
262 * Turned on ActionView::Base.cache_template_loading by default in config/environments/production.rb to prevent file system stat calls for every template loading to see if it changed (this means that you have to restart the application to see template changes in production mode) [David Heinemeier Hansson]

295
296 * Update to Prototype -r8232. [sam]
297
298 * Introduce SecretKeyGenerator for more secure session secrets than CGI::Session's pseudo-random id generator. Consider extracting to Active Support later. #10286 [Hongli Lai (Phusion)]

301
302 * Load config/preinitializer.rb, if present, before loading the environment. #9943 [Chad Woolley]
303
304 * FastCGI handler ignores unsupported signals like USR2 on Windows. [Grzegorz Derebecki]
305
306 * Only load ActionMailer::TestCase if ActionMailer is loaded. Closes #10137 [defunkt]
307
308 * Fixed that db:reset would use migrations instead of loading db/schema.rb [David Heinemeier Hansson]
309
310 * Ensure the plugin loader only loads plugins once. Closes #10102 [haruki_zaemon]
311
312 * Refactor Plugin Loader. Add plugin lib paths early, and add lots of tests. Closes #9795 [James Adam]
313
314 * Added --skip-timestamps to generators that produce models #10036 [Tim Pope]
315
316 * Update Prototype to 1.6.0 and script.aculo.us to 1.8.0. [sam, madrobby]
317

335
336 * db:create works with remote databases whereas db:create:all only creates
337 databases on localhost. #9753 [Trevor Wennblom]
338
339 * Removed calls to fixtures in generated tests as fixtures :all is now present by default in test_helper.rb [David Heinemeier Hansson]
340
341 * Add --prefix option to script/server when using mongrel. [dacat]

402
403 * Added rake routes for listing all the defined routes in the system. #8795 [Josh Peek]
404
405 * db:create creates the database for the current environment if it's on localhost. db:create:all creates local databases for all environments. #8783 [matt]
406
407 * Generators: look for generators in all gems, not just those suffixed with _generator, in the gem's generators or rails_generators directory. Allow use of the rails_generators directory instead of the standard generators directory in plugins also. #8730 [Dr Nic, topfunky]

415 * Fix that FCGIs would leave log files open when asked to shut down by USR2. #3028 [Sebastian Kanthak, Josh Peek]
416
417 * Fixed that dispatcher preparation callbacks only run once in production mode. Mock Routes.reload so that dispatcher preparation callback tests run. [Rick Olson]
418
419 * Fix syntax error in dispatcher than wrecked failsafe responses. #8625 [mtitorenko]
420
421 * Scaffolded validation errors set the appropriate HTTP status for XML responses. #6946, #8622 [Manfred Stienstra, mmmultiworks]
422
423 * Sexy migrations for the session_migration generator. #8561 [Vladislav]
424
425 * Console reload! runs to_prepare callbacks also. #8393 [f.svehla]
426

434
435 * Scaffold generator tests. #8443 [pelle]
436
437 * Generated scaffold functional tests use assert_difference. #8421 [Norbert Crombach]
438
439 * Update to Prototype 1.5.1. [Sam Stephenson]
440
441 * Update to script.aculo.us 1.7.1_beta3. [Thomas Fuchs]
442
443 * Generators use *.html.erb view template naming. #8278 [Tim Pope]
444
445 * Updated resource_scaffold and model generators to use short-hand style migrations [David Heinemeier Hansson]
446
447 * Updated initializer to only load #{RAILS_ENV}.rb once. Added deprecation warning for config.breakpoint_server. [Nicholas Seckar]
448
449 * 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]
450
451 To use the new debugger, start your server with script/server --debugger and insert a call to 'debugger'
452 (instead of 'breakpoint') where you want to jump into the debugger.
453
454 BACKWARDS INCOMPATIBILITY NOTE: You must remove the default line 12 from config/environments/development.rb:
455
456 config.breakpoint_server = true
457
458 This configuration option is no longer available. Rails will fail to start in development mode as long as
459 that's still present.
460
461 * Resource scaffolding returns the created entity.to_xml. [Jeremy Kemper]
462
463 * Resource scaffolding responds to new.xml. #8185 [Eric Mill]
464
465 * Include Active Resource in rails:freeze:edge rake task. [Thomas Fuchs]
466
467 * Include Active Resource instead of Action Web Service [David Heinemeier Hansson] You can add AWS back with this in config/environment.rb:
468
469 config.load_paths += %W( #{RAILS_ROOT}/vendor/rails/actionwebservice/lib )
470
471 ...or just gem 'actionwebservice'
472
473 * Give generate scaffold a more descriptive database message. Closes #7316 [Jeremy McAnally]
474
475 * Canonicalize RAILS_ROOT by using File.expand_path on Windows, which doesn't have to worry about symlinks, and Pathname#realpath elsewhere, which respects symlinks in relative paths but is incompatible with Windows. #6755 [Jeremy Kemper, trevor]
476
477 * Deprecation: remove components from controller paths. [Jeremy Kemper]
478
479 * Add environment variable RAILS_DEFAULT_DATABASE, which allows the builtin default of 'mysql' to be overridden. [Nicholas Seckar]
480
481 * Windows: include MinGW in RUBY_PLATFORM check. #2982 [okkez000@gmail.com, Kaspar Schiess]
482
483 * Split out the basic plugin locator functionality into an abstract super class. Add a FileSystemLocator to do the job of checking the plugin_paths for plugins. Add plugin_locators configuration option which will iterate over the set of plugin locators and load each of the plugin loaders they return. Rename locater everywhere to locator. [Marcel Molina Jr.]
484
485 * Split plugin location and loading out of the initializer and into a new Plugin namespace, which includes Plugin::Locater and Plugin::Loader. The loader class that is used can be customized using the config.plugin_loader option. Those monkey patching the plugin loading subsystem take note, the internals changing here will likely break your modifications. The good news is that it should be substantially easier to hook into the plugin locating and loading process now. [Marcel Molina Jr.]
486
487 * Added assumption that all plugin creators desire to be sharing individuals and release their work under the MIT license [David Heinemeier Hansson]
488
489 * Added source-annotations extractor tasks to rake [Jamis Buck]. This allows you to add FIXME, OPTIMIZE, and TODO comments to your source code that can then be extracted in concert with rake notes (shows all), rake notes:fixme, rake notes:optimize and rake notes:todo.
490
491 * Added fixtures :all to test_helper.rb to assume that most people just want all their fixtures loaded all the time [David Heinemeier Hansson]
492
493 * Added config/initializers where all ruby files within it are automatically loaded after the Rails configuration is done, so you don't have to litter the environment.rb file with a ton of mixed stuff [David Heinemeier Hansson]
494
495 * For new apps, generate a random secret for the cookie-based session store. [Jeremy Kemper]
496
497 * Stop swallowing errors during rake test [Michael Koziarski]
498
499 * Update Rails Initializer to use ActionController::Base#view_paths [Rick Olson]
500
501 * Fix gem deprecation warnings, which also means depending on RubyGems 0.9.0+ [Chad Fowler]
502
503 * Plugins may be symlinked in vendor/plugins. #4245 [brandon, progrium@gmail.com]
504
505 * Resource generator depends on the model generator rather than duplicating it. #7269 [bscofield]
506
507 * Add/Update usage documentation for script/destroy, resource generator and scaffold_resource generator. Closes #7092, #7271, #7267. [bscofield]
508
509 * Update to script.aculo.us 1.7.0. [Thomas Fuchs]
510
511 * Update to Prototype 1.5.0. [Sam Stephenson]
512
513 * Generator: use destination path for diff tempfiles. #7015 [alfeld]
514
515 * Fixed that webrick would strip leading newlines and hang connection #4156 [psross]
516
517 * Ensure plugins are in the Dependencies.load_once_paths collection by default. [Rick Olson]
518 If you really want your plugins to reload, add this to the very top of init.rb:
519
520 Dependencies.load_once_paths.delete(lib_path)
521
522 * Allow config.to_prepare to work, make the dispatcher safe to 're require'. [Michael Koziarski, Nicholas Seckar]
523
524 * Fix scaffold_resource generator so it respects the --pretend argument when creating the routes file. Closes #6852 [fearoffish]
525
526 * Fix Webrick Daemon dispatching bug regarding a bad current working directory. Closes #4899 [Rick Olson]
527
528 * Make config.plugins affect the load path and the dependencies system. Allows you to control plugin loading order, and keep disabled plugins off the load path. [James Adam]
529
530 * Don't generate a components directory in new Rails apps. [Jeremy Kemper]
531
532 * Fixed script/process/spawner to work properly with Mongrel including in -r (daemonize mode) [David Heinemeier Hansson]
533
534 * Added one-letter aliases for the three default environments to script/console, so script/console p will load the production environment (t for test, d for development) [David Heinemeier Hansson]
535
536 * Fixed that script/server running against Mongrel should tail the proper log regardless of the environment [David Heinemeier Hansson]
537
538 * Update initializer to load Rails::VERSION as soon as possible. Closes #6698. [Nicholas Seckar]
539
540 * Added ActiveRecord::Base.clear_active_connections! in development mode so the database connection is not carried over from request to request. Some databases won't reread the schema if that doesn't happen (I'm looking at you SQLite), so you have to restart the server after each migration (= no fun) [David Heinemeier Hansson]
541
542 * Made RAILS_GEM_VERSION work for beta gems too, so specifying 1.1.6 will give you 1.1.6.4520 if available [David Heinemeier Hansson]
543
544 * Update to Prototype and script.aculo.us [5579]. [Thomas Fuchs]
545
546 * Made script/server work with -e and -d when using Mongrel [David Heinemeier Hansson]
547
548 * Update to Prototype 1.5.0_rc2 [5550] which makes it work in Opera again [Thomas Fuchs]
549
550 * Make sure that exceptions which are thrown outside of the user code try their best to be handeled in ApplicationController#rescue_action [Tobias Lütke]
551
552 * Rails::VERSION::STRING should always be available without having to require 'rails/version'. #6244 [fearoffish]
553
554 * Update to Prototype 1.5.0_rc2. [Sam Stephenson]
555
556 * Add grep-based fallback to reaper, to work in pidless setups [Jamis Buck]
557
558 * Only wrap request processing with our USR1 signal handler so FastCGI can trap it and raise an exception while waiting for connections. Idle processes exit immediately rather than waiting for another request; active processes gracefully exit when the request is finished. [Jeremy Kemper]
559
560 * Alter prior change to use require_dependency instead of require_or_load. Causes ApplicationController to be reloaded again. Closes #6587. [Nicholas Seckar]
561
562 * Rake: use absolute paths to load lib and vendor tasks so they may be run outside of RAILS_ROOT. #6584 [jchris]
563
564 * Remove temporary crutch to help ApplicationController be unloaded. Closes #6496. [Nicholas Seckar]
565
566 * scaffold_resource generator uses _path named routes and head instead of render :nothing => true. #6545 [Josh Susser]
567
568 * Generator can show diff on file collision to help you decide whether to skip or overwrite. #6364 [jeffw, Jeremy Kemper]
569
570 * Generated directories are recursively svn added, like mkdir -p. #6416 [NeilW]
571
572 * resource and scaffold_resource generators add a restful route to config/routes.rb [Jeremy Kemper]
573
574 * Revert environment changes for autoload_paths. [Michael Koziarski]
575
576 * Update to latest Prototype, which doesn't serialize disabled form elements, adds clone() to arrays, empty/non-string Element.update() and adds a fixes excessive error reporting in WebKit beta versions [Thomas Fuchs]
577
578 * Clean up the output of rake stats, de-emphasise components and apis, and remove the indents for tests [Michael Koziarski]
579
580 * Added option to script/process/spawner of specifying the binding address #5133 [Dee Zsombor]
581
582 * Update environment.rb comments to include config.autoload_paths. Closes #6478 [caio]
583
584 * Update scaffold to use new form_tag block functionality. Closes #6480. [Bob Silva]
585
586 * Plugin generator: check for class collisions. #4833 [vinbarnes@gmail.com]
587
588 * Mailer generator: handle mailers in modules, set mime_version in unit test. [Jeremy Kemper]
589
590 * Set $KCODE to 'u' by default to enable the multibyte safe String#chars proxy. [Michael Koziarski]
591
592 * Added config.plugins to control which plugins are loaded #6269 [Stefan Kaes]. By default, everything in vendor/plugins will be loaded, but if you specify config.plugins, only those will be loaded. Example:
593
594 config.plugins = %w[ routing_navigator simply_helpful ]
595
596 * Clean up html on included error pages. [Tim Lucas]
597
598 * Fixed default 404.html and 500.htmls to remove extreme ugliness and include human language [David Heinemeier Hansson]
599
600 * Update to latest Prototype and script.aculo.us trunk versions [Thomas Fuchs]
601
602 * PostgreSQL: db:test:purge closes open database connections first. #6236 [alex]
603
604 * Fixed test:uncommitted on Windows (backslash issue) #4999 [paul@paulbutcher.com]
605
606 * Fixed migration creation to work with namespaced models, so script/generate model Gallery::Image will use create_table :gallery_images #6327 [Bob Silva]
607
608 * Fixed rename_table on SQLite tables with indexes defined #5942 [brandon@opensoul.org]
609
610 * Added default timeout setting of 5 seconds to SQLite3 database.yml configurations [David Heinemeier Hansson]
611
612 * Added generated attribute options to script/generate model, like the one found in scaffold_resource and resource [David Heinemeier Hansson]. Examples:
613
614 ./script/generate model post title:string created_on:date body:text published:boolean
615
616 * Added script/generate resource which works just like scaffold_resource, but creates empty placeholders instead of predefined [David Heinemeier Hansson]
617
618 * script/runner can run files, pass on arguments, and be used as a shebang. #6286 [Tuxie, dlpond]
619 #!/usr/bin/env /path/to/my/app/script/runner
620 # Example: just start using your models as if you are in script/console
621 Product.find(:all).each { |product| product.check_inventory }
622
623 * Look for rake tasks in plugin subdirs. #6259 [obrie]

629 - XPATH support
630 - Make Form.getElements() return elements in the correct order
631 - fix broken Form.serialize return
632
633 * session_migration generator adds an index on updated_at. #6207 [grg]
634
635 * script/server creates the tmp/pids directory. #6204 [jonathan]
636
637 * Fix script/console --sandbox for internal transactions changes. #5738 [Chris McGrath, charles.gerungan@gmail.com]
638
639 * Remove the uncanny default of adding all app/models/*/ directories to the load path. This change will break application which expect the current behavior. As
640 documented in initializer.rb, the workaround is:
641
642 config.autoload_paths += Dir[RAILS_ROOT + '/app/models/*/']
643
644 References #6031. [Nicholas Seckar]
645
646 * Update to script.aculo.us 1.6.3 [Thomas Fuchs]

661
662 * Updated to script.aculo.us 1.6.2 [Thomas Fuchs]
663
664 * Assign Routing.controller_paths; fix script/about and rails info controller. [Nicholas Seckar]
665
666 * Don't warn dispatcher of Reloadable deprecations. [Nicholas Seckar]
667
668 * Rearrange application resetting and preparation, fix bug with leaking subclasses hash in ActiveRecord::Base [Rick Olson]
669
670 ActiveRecord::Base.reset_subclasses is called before Dependencies are cleared and classes removed.
671 ActiveRecord::Base.instantiate_observers is called during a Dispatcher preparation callback.
672
673 * Add missing mock directories from the autoload_paths configuration. [Rick Olson]
674
675 * Nested controller scaffolding also nests the generated layout. [iain d broadfoot]
676
677 * Add "require 'dispatcher'" to webrick server in the continuing quest to squash webrick weirdness. [Nicholas Seckar]
678
679 * Add autoload_paths support to Initializer. [Nicholas Seckar]
680
681 * Fix Dispatcher.reset_application! so that AR subclasses are removed and Observers re-initialized *after* Reloadable classes are removed. Closes #5743. [Rick Olson]
682
683 * Clarify usage of script/plugin source. Closes #5344. [James Adam]
684
685 * Add Dispatcher.to_prepare and config.to_prepare to provide a pre-request hook. [Nicholas Seckar]
686
687 * Tweak the Rails load order so observers are loaded after plugins, and reloaded in development mode. Closed #5279. [Rick Olson]
688
689 * Added that you can change the web server port in config/lighttpd.conf from script/server --port/-p #5465 [mats@imediatec.co.uk]
690
691 * script/performance/profiler compatibility with the new ruby-prof, including an option to choose the results printer. #5679 [Shugo Maeda]
692
693 * Fixed the failsafe response so it uses either the current recognized controller or ApplicationController. [Rick Olson]
694
695 * Make sure script/reaper only reaps dispatcher pids by default, and not the spawner's pid. [Jamis Buck]
696
697 * Fix script/plugin about so it uses about.yml and not meta.yml. [James Adam]
698
699 * Dispatcher processes rescued actions with the same controller that processed the request. #4625 [sd@notso.net]
700
701 * rails -d frontbase to create a new project with a frontbase database.yml. #4945 [mlaster@metavillage.com]
702
703 * Ensure the logger is initialized. #5629 [mike@clarkware.com]
704
705 * Added Mongrel-spawning capabilities to script/process/spawner. Mongrel will be the default choice if installed, otherwise FCGI is tried [David Heinemeier Hansson]. Examples:
706
707 spawner # starts instances on 8000, 8001, and 8002 using Mongrel if available
708 spawner fcgi # starts instances on 8000, 8001, and 8002 using FCGI
709 spawner mongrel -i 5 # starts instances on 8000, 8001, 8002, 8003, and 8004 using Mongrel
710 spawner -p 9100 -i 10 # starts 10 instances counting from 9100 to 9109 using Mongrel if available
711 spawner -p 9100 -r 5 # starts 3 instances counting from 9100 to 9102 and attempts start them every 5 seconds
712
713 Also note that script/process/reaper is Mongrel capable. So the combination of spawner and reaper is a built-in alternative to something like mongrel_cluster.
714
715 * Update scaffolding functional tests to use :id => people(:first) instead of :id => 1. #5612 [evan@protest.net]
716
717 * db:test:clone should remove existing tables before reloading the schema. #5607 [sveit@tradeharbor.com]
718
719 * Fixed migration generation for class names like ACLController #5197 [brad@madriska.com]
720
721 * Added show_source_list and show_call_stack to breakpoints to make it easier to get context #5476 [takiuchi@drecom.co.jp]. Examples:
722
723 irb(#<TopController:0x40822a68>):002:0> show_source_list
724 0001 class TopController < ApplicationController
725 0002 def show
726 0003-> breakpoint
727 0004 end
728 0005
729 0006 def index
730 0007 end
731 0008
732 => "/path/to/rails/root/app/controllers/top_controller.rb"
733
734 irb(#<TopController:0x40822a68>):004:0> show_call_stack 3
735 vendor/rails/railties/lib/breakpoint.rb:536:in `breakpoint'
736 vendor/rails/railties/lib/breakpoint.rb:536:in `breakpoint'
737 app/controllers/top_controller.rb:3:in `show'
738 => "/path/to/rails/root/app/controllers/top_controller.rb:3"
739
740 * Generate scaffold layout in subdirectory appropriate to its module nesting. #5511 [nils@alumni.rice.edu]
741
742 * Mongrel: script/server tails the rails log like it does with lighttpd. Prefer mongrel over lighttpd. #5541 [mike@clarkware.com]
743
744 * Don't assume Active Record is available. #5497 [bob@sporkmonger.com]
745
746 * Mongrel: script/server works on Win32. #5499 [jeremydurham@gmail.com]
747
748 * Remove opts.on { |options[:option_name] } style hash assignment. Closes #4440. [Nick Sieger]
749

751
752 * Fix script/plugin so it doesn't barf on invalid URLs [Rick Olson]
753
754 * Fix plugin install bug at dir with space. (closes #5359) [Yoshimasa NIWA]
755
756 * Fix bug with 'script/plugin install' so it reports unknown plugin names correctly. [Rick Olson]
757
758 * Added uninstall.rb hook to plugin handling, such that plugins have a way of removing assets and other artifacts on removal #5003 [takiuchi@drecom.co.jp]
759
760 * Create temporary dirs relative to RAILS_ROOT when running script/server #5014 [elliot@townx.org]
761
762 * Minor tweak to dispatcher to use recognize instead of recognize!, as per the new routes. [Jamis Buck]
763
764 * Make "script/plugin install" work with svn+ssh URLs. [Sam Stephenson]
765
766 * Added lib/ to the directories that will get application docs generated [David Heinemeier Hansson]
767

769
770 * Session migration generator obeys pluralize_table_names. #5145 [James Adam]
771
772 * rake test:recent understands subdirectories. #2925 [jerrett@bravenet.com]
773
774 * The app generator detects the XAMPP package's MySQL socket location. #3832 [elliot@townx.org]
775
776 * The app generator sets a session key in application.rb so apps running on the same host may distinguish their cookies. #2967 [rcoder, rails-bug@owl.me.uk]
777
778 * Distinguish the spawners for different processes [David Heinemeier Hansson]
779
780 * Added -n/--process to script/process/spawner name the process pid (default is dispatch) [David Heinemeier Hansson]
781
782 * Namespaced OrderedHash so the Rails implementation does not clash with any others. (fixes #4911) [Julian Tarkhanov]
783
784 * Replace Ruby's deprecated append_features in favor of included. [Marcel Molina Jr.]
785
786 * Added script/process/inspector to do simple process status information on Rails dispatchers keeping pid files in tmp/pids [David Heinemeier Hansson]
787
788 * Added pid file usage to script/process/spawner and script/process/reaper along with a directive in default config/lighttpd.conf file to record the pid. They will all save their pid file in tmp/pids [David Heinemeier Hansson]
789
790

792
793 * Ruby 1.8.6 compatibility

840
841 * Added ActiveRecord::Base.clear_active_connections! in development mode so the database connection is not carried over from request to request. Some databases won't reread the schema if that doesn't happen (I'm looking at you SQLite), so you have to restart the server after each migration (= no fun) [David Heinemeier Hansson]

858
859 * Rake: use absolute paths to load lib and vendor tasks so they may be run outside of RAILS_ROOT. #6584 [jchris]
860
861 * scaffold_resource generator uses _path named routes and head instead of render :nothing => true. #6545 [Josh Susser]
862
863 * Generator can show diff on file collision to help you decide whether to skip or overwrite. #6364 [jeffw, Jeremy Kemper]
864
865 * Generated directories are recursively svn added, like mkdir -p. #6416 [NeilW]
866
867 * resource and scaffold_resource generators add a restful route to config/routes.rb [Jeremy Kemper]

873 * Added option to script/process/spawner of specifying the binding address #5133 [Dee Zsombor]
874
875 * Update environment.rb comments to include config.autoload_paths. Closes #6478 [caio]
876
877 * Update scaffold to use new form_tag block functionality. Closes #6480. [Bob Silva]
878
879 * Plugin generator: check for class collisions. #4833 [vinbarnes@gmail.com]
880
881 * Mailer generator: handle mailers in modules, set mime_version in unit test. [Jeremy Kemper]
882
883 * Set $KCODE to 'u' by default to enable the multibyte safe String#chars proxy. [Michael Koziarski]
884
885 * Added config.plugins to control which plugins are loaded #6269 [Stefan Kaes]. By default, everything in vendor/plugins will be loaded, but if you specify config.plugins, only those will be loaded. Example:
886
887 config.plugins = %w[ routing_navigator simply_helpful ]
888
889 * Clean up html on included error pages. [Tim Lucas]
890
891 * Fixed default 404.html and 500.htmls to remove extreme ugliness and include human language [David Heinemeier Hansson]
892
893 * Update to latest Prototype and script.aculo.us trunk versions [Thomas Fuchs]
894
895 * PostgreSQL: db:test:purge closes open database connections first. #6236 [alex]
896
897 * Fixed test:uncommitted on Windows (backslash issue) #4999 [paul@paulbutcher.com]
898
899 * Fixed migration creation to work with namespaced models, so script/generate model Gallery::Image will use create_table :gallery_images #6327 [Bob Silva]
900
901 * Fixed rename_table on SQLite tables with indexes defined #5942 [brandon@opensoul.org]
902
903 * Added default timeout setting of 5 seconds to SQLite3 database.yml configurations [David Heinemeier Hansson]
904
905 * Added generated attribute options to script/generate model, like the one found in scaffold_resource and resource [David Heinemeier Hansson]. Examples:
906
907 ./script/generate model post title:string created_on:date body:text published:boolean
908
909 * Added script/generate resource which works just like scaffold_resource, but creates empty placeholders instead of predefined [David Heinemeier Hansson]
910
911 * script/runner can run files, pass on arguments, and be used as a shebang. #6286 [Tuxie, dlpond]
912 #!/usr/bin/env /path/to/my/app/script/runner
913 # Example: just start using your models as if you are in script/console
914 Product.find(:all).each { |product| product.check_inventory }
915
916 * Look for rake tasks in plugin subdirs. #6259 [obrie]
917
918 * Added map.connect ':controller/:action/:id.:format' as a default route to config/routes.rb [David Heinemeier Hansson]
919
920 * session_migration generator adds an index on updated_at. #6207 [grg]
921
922 * script/server creates the tmp/pids directory. #6204 [jonathan]
923
924 * Fix script/console --sandbox for internal transactions changes. #5738 [Chris McGrath, charles.gerungan@gmail.com]
925
926 * Remove the uncanny default of adding all app/models/*/ directories to the load path. This change will break application which expect the current behavior. As
927 documented in initializer.rb, the workaround is:
928
929 config.autoload_paths += Dir[RAILS_ROOT + '/app/models/*/']
930
931 References #6031. [Nicholas Seckar]
932
933 * Update to script.aculo.us 1.6.3 [Thomas Fuchs]
934
935 * Formally Deprecate the old rake tasks. [Michael Koziarski]
936
937 * Thoroughly test the FCGI dispatcher. #5970 [Kevin Clark]
938
939 * Remove Dir.chdir in the Webrick DispatchServlet#initialize method. Fix bad path errors when trying to load config/routes.rb. [Rick Olson]
940
941 * Tighten rescue clauses. #5985 [james@grayproductions.net]
942
943 * Cleaning up tests. [Kevin Clark, Jeremy Kemper]
944
945 * Add Dependencies.load_once_paths. [Nicholas Seckar]
946
947 * Assign Routing.controller_paths; fix script/about and rails info controller. [Nicholas Seckar]
948
949 * Don't warn dispatcher of Reloadable deprecations. [Nicholas Seckar]
950
951 * Rearrange application resetting and preparation, fix bug with leaking subclasses hash in ActiveRecord::Base [Rick Olson]
952
953 ActiveRecord::Base.reset_subclasses is called before Dependencies are cleared and classes removed.
954 ActiveRecord::Base.instantiate_observers is called during a Dispatcher preparation callback.
955
956 * Add missing mock directories from the autoload_paths configuration. [Rick Olson]
957
958 * Nested controller scaffolding also nests the generated layout. [iain d broadfoot]
959
960 * Add "require 'dispatcher'" to webrick server in the continuing quest to squash webrick weirdness. [Nicholas Seckar]
961
962 * Add autoload_paths support to Initializer. [Nicholas Seckar]
963
964 * Fix Dispatcher.reset_application! so that AR subclasses are removed and Observers re-initialized *after* Reloadable classes are removed. Closes #5743. [Rick Olson]
965
966 * Clarify usage of script/plugin source. Closes #5344. [James Adam]
967
968 * Add Dispatcher.to_prepare and config.to_prepare to provide a pre-request hook. [Nicholas Seckar]
969
970 * Tweak the Rails load order so observers are loaded after plugins, and reloaded in development mode. Closed #5279. [Rick Olson]
971
972 * Added that you can change the web server port in config/lighttpd.conf from script/server --port/-p #5465 [mats@imediatec.co.uk]
973
974 * script/performance/profiler compatibility with the new ruby-prof, including an option to choose the results printer. #5679 [Shugo Maeda]
975
976 * Fixed the failsafe response so it uses either the current recognized controller or ApplicationController. [Rick Olson]
977
978 * Make sure script/reaper only reaps dispatcher pids by default, and not the spawner's pid. [Jamis Buck]
979
980 * Fix script/plugin about so it uses about.yml and not meta.yml. [James Adam]
981
982 * Dispatcher processes rescued actions with the same controller that processed the request. #4625 [sd@notso.net]
983
984 * rails -d frontbase to create a new project with a frontbase database.yml. #4945 [mlaster@metavillage.com]
985
986 * Ensure the logger is initialized. #5629 [mike@clarkware.com]
987
988 * Added Mongrel-spawning capabilities to script/process/spawner. Mongrel will be the default choice if installed, otherwise FCGI is tried [David Heinemeier Hansson]. Examples:
989
990 spawner # starts instances on 8000, 8001, and 8002 using Mongrel if available
991 spawner fcgi # starts instances on 8000, 8001, and 8002 using FCGI
992 spawner mongrel -i 5 # starts instances on 8000, 8001, 8002, 8003, and 8004 using Mongrel
993 spawner -p 9100 -i 10 # starts 10 instances counting from 9100 to 9109 using Mongrel if available
994 spawner -p 9100 -r 5 # starts 3 instances counting from 9100 to 9102 and attempts start them every 5 seconds
995
996 Also note that script/process/reaper is Mongrel capable. So the combination of spawner and reaper is a built-in alternative to something like mongrel_cluster.
997
998 * Update scaffolding functional tests to use :id => people(:first) instead of :id => 1. #5612 [evan@protest.net]
999
1000 * db:test:clone should remove existing tables before reloading the schema. #5607 [sveit@tradeharbor.com]
1001
1002 * Fixed migration generation for class names like ACLController #5197 [brad@madriska.com]
1003
1004 * Added show_source_list and show_call_stack to breakpoints to make it easier to get context #5476 [takiuchi@drecom.co.jp]. Examples:
1005
1006 irb(#<TopController:0x40822a68>):002:0> show_source_list
1007 0001 class TopController < ApplicationController
1008 0002 def show
1009 0003-> breakpoint
1010 0004 end
1011 0005
1012 0006 def index
1013 0007 end
1014 0008
1015 => "/path/to/rails/root/app/controllers/top_controller.rb"
1016
1017 irb(#<TopController:0x40822a68>):004:0> show_call_stack 3
1018 vendor/rails/railties/lib/breakpoint.rb:536:in `breakpoint'
1019 vendor/rails/railties/lib/breakpoint.rb:536:in `breakpoint'
1020 app/controllers/top_controller.rb:3:in `show'
1021 => "/path/to/rails/root/app/controllers/top_controller.rb:3"
1022
1023 * Generate scaffold layout in subdirectory appropriate to its module nesting. #5511 [nils@alumni.rice.edu]
1024
1025 * Mongrel: script/server tails the rails log like it does with lighttpd. Prefer mongrel over lighttpd. #5541 [mike@clarkware.com]
1026
1027 * Don't assume Active Record is available. #5497 [bob@sporkmonger.com]
1028
1029 * Mongrel: script/server works on Win32. #5499 [jeremydurham@gmail.com]
1030
1031 * Remove opts.on { |options[:option_name] } style hash assignment. Closes #4440. [Nick Sieger]
1032
1033 * Mongrel support for script/server. #5475 [jeremydurham@gmail.com]
1034
1035 * Fix script/plugin so it doesn't barf on invalid URLs [Rick Olson]
1036
1037 * Fix plugin install bug at dir with space. (closes #5359) [Yoshimasa NIWA]
1038
1039 * Fix bug with 'script/plugin install' so it reports unknown plugin names correctly. [Rick Olson]
1040
1041 * Added uninstall.rb hook to plugin handling, such that plugins have a way of removing assets and other artifacts on removal #5003 [takiuchi@drecom.co.jp]
1042
1043 * Create temporary dirs relative to RAILS_ROOT when running script/server #5014 [elliot@townx.org]
1044
1045 * Minor tweak to dispatcher to use recognize instead of recognize!, as per the new routes. [Jamis Buck]
1046
1047 * Make "script/plugin install" work with svn+ssh URLs. [Sam Stephenson]
1048
1049 * Added lib/ to the directories that will get application docs generated [David Heinemeier Hansson]
1050
1051 * Add observer generator. Closes #5167. [François Beausoleil]
1052
1053 * Session migration generator obeys pluralize_table_names. #5145 [James Adam]
1054
1055 * rake test:recent understands subdirectories. #2925 [jerrett@bravenet.com]
1056
1057 * The app generator detects the XAMPP package's MySQL socket location. #3832 [elliot@townx.org]
1058
1059 * The app generator sets a session key in application.rb so apps running on the same host may distinguish their cookies. #2967 [rcoder, rails-bug@owl.me.uk]
1060
1061 * Distinguish the spawners for different processes [David Heinemeier Hansson]
1062
1063 * Added -n/--process to script/process/spawner name the process pid (default is dispatch) [David Heinemeier Hansson]
1064
1065 * Namespaced OrderedHash so the Rails implementation does not clash with any others. (fixes #4911) [Julian Tarkhanov]
1066
1067 * Replace Ruby's deprecated append_features in favor of included. [Marcel Molina Jr.]
1068
1069 * Added script/process/inspector to do simple process status information on Rails dispatchers keeping pid files in tmp/pids [David Heinemeier Hansson]
1070
1071 * Added pid file usage to script/process/spawner and script/process/reaper along with a directive in default config/lighttpd.conf file to record the pid. They will all save their pid file in tmp/pids [David Heinemeier Hansson]
1072
1073
1074 *1.1.6* (August 10th, 2006)
1075
1076 * Additional security patch
1077
1078
1079 *1.1.5* (August 8th, 2006)
1080
1081 * Mention in docs that config.frameworks doesn't work when getting Rails via Gems. #4857 [Alisdair McDiarmid]
1082
1083 * Change the scaffolding layout to use yield rather than @content_for_layout. [Marcel Molina Jr.]
1084
1085 * Includes critical security patch
1086
1087
1088 *1.1.4* (June 29th, 2006)
1089
1090 * Remove use of opts.on { |options[:name] } style hash assignment. References #4440. [headius@headius.com]
1091
1092 * Updated to Action Pack 1.12.3, ActionWebService 1.1.4, ActionMailer 1.2.3
1093
1094
1095 *1.1.3* (June 27th, 2006)
1096
1097 * Updated to Active Record 1.14.3, Action Pack 1.12.2, ActionWebService 1.1.3, ActionMailer 1.2.2
1098
1099
1100 *1.1.2* (April 9th, 2006)
1101
1102 * Mention in docs that config.frameworks doesn't work when getting Rails via Gems. Closes #4857. [Alisdair McDiarmid]
1103
1104 * Change the scaffolding layout to use yield rather than @content_for_layout. [Marcel Molina Jr.]
1105
1106 * Added rake rails:update:configs to update config/boot.rb from the latest (also included in rake rails:update) [David Heinemeier Hansson]
1107
1108 * Fixed that boot.rb would set RAILS_GEM_VERSION twice, not respect an uncommented RAILS_GEM_VERSION line, and not use require_gem [David Heinemeier Hansson]
1109
1110
1111 *1.1.1* (April 6th, 2006)
1112
1113 * Enhances plugin#discover allowing it to discover svn:// like URIs (closes #4565) [ruben.nine@gmail.com]
1114
1115 * Update to Prototype 1.5.0_rc0 [Sam Stephenson]
1116
1117 * Fixed that the -r/--ruby path option of the rails command was not being respected #4549 [ryan.raaum@gmail.com]
1118
1119 * Added that Dispatcher exceptions should not be shown to the user unless a default log has not been configured. Instead show public/500.html [David Heinemeier Hansson]
1120
1121 * Fixed that rake clone_structure_to_test should quit on pgsql if the dump is unsuccesful #4585 [augustz@augustz.com]
1122
1123 * Fixed that rails --version should have the return code of 0 (success) #4560 [blair@orcaware.com]
1124
1125 * Install alias so Rails::InfoController is accessible at /rails_info. Closes #4546. [Nicholas Seckar]
1126
1127 * Fixed that spawner should daemonize if running in repeat mode [David Heinemeier Hansson]
1128
1129 * Added TAG option for rake rails:freeze:edge, so you can say rake rails:freeze:edge TAG=rel_1-1-0 to lock to the 1.1.0 release [David Heinemeier Hansson]
1130
1131 * Applied Prototype $() performance patches (#4465, #4477) and updated script.aculo.us [Sam Stephenson, Thomas Fuchs]
1132
1133 * Use --simple-prompt instead of --prompt-mode simple for console compatibility with Windows/Ruby 1.8.2 #4532 [starr@starrnhorne.com]
1134
1135 * Make Rails::VERSION implicitly loadable #4491. [Nicholas Seckar]
1136
1137 * Fixed rake rails:freeze:gems #4518 [benji@silverinsanity.com]
1138
1139 * Added -f/--freeze option to rails command for freezing the application to the Rails version it was generated with [David Heinemeier Hansson]
1140
1141 * Added gem binding of apps generated through the rails command to the gems of they were generated with [Nicholas Seckar]
1142
1143 * Added expiration settings for JavaScript, CSS, HTML, and images to default lighttpd.conf [David Heinemeier Hansson]
1144
1145 * Added gzip compression for JavaScript, CSS, and HTML to default lighttpd.conf [David Heinemeier Hansson]
1146
1147 * Avoid passing escapeHTML non-string in Rails' info controller [Nicholas Seckar]
1148
1149
1150 *1.1.0* (March 27th, 2006)
1151
1152 * Allow db:fixtures:load to load a subset of the applications fixtures. [Chad Fowler]
1153
1154 ex.
1155
1156 rake db:fixtures:load FIXTURES=customers,plans
1157
1158 * Update to Prototype 1.5.0_pre1 [Sam Stephenson]
1159
1160 * Update to script.aculo.us 1.6 [Thomas Fuchs]
1161
1162 * Add an integration_test generator [Jamis Buck]
1163
1164 * Make all ActionView helpers available in the console from the helper method for debugging purposes. n.b.: Only an 80% solution. Some stuff won't work, most will. [Marcel Molina Jr.]
1165
1166 ex.
1167
1168 >> puts helper.options_for_select([%w(a 1), %w(b 2), %w(c 3)])
1169 <option value="1">a</option>
1170 <option value="2">b</option>
1171 <option value="3">c</option>
1172 => nil
1173
1174 * Replaced old session rake tasks with db:sessions:create to generate a migration, and db:sessions:clear to remove sessions. [Rick Olson]
1175
1176 * Reject Ruby 1.8.3 when loading Rails; extract version checking code. [Chad Fowler]
1177
1178 * Remove explicit loading of RailsInfo and RailsInfoController. [Nicholas Seckar]
1179
1180 * Move RailsInfo and RailsInfoController to Rails::Info and Rails::InfoController. [Nicholas Seckar]
1181
1182 * Extend load path with Railties' builtin directory to make adding support code easy. [Nicholas Seckar]
1183
1184 * Fix the rails_info controller by explicitly loading it, and marking it as not reloadable. [Nicholas Seckar]
1185
1186 * Fixed rails:freeze:gems for Windows #3274 [paul@paulbutcher.com]
1187
1188 * Added 'port open?' check to the spawner when running in repeat mode so we don't needlessly boot the dispatcher if the port is already in use anyway #4089 [guy.naor@famundo.com]
1189
1190 * Add verification to generated scaffolds, don't allow get for unsafe actions [Michael Koziarski]
1191
1192 * Don't replace application.js in public/javascripts if it already exists [Cody Fauser]
1193
1194 * Change test:uncommitted to delay execution of `svn status` by using internal Rake API's. [Nicholas Seckar]
1195
1196 * Use require_library_or_gem to load rake in commands/server.rb. Closes #4205. [rob.rasmussen@gmail.com]
1197
1198 * Use the Rake API instead of shelling out to create the tmp directory in commands/server.rb. [Chad Fowler]
1199
1200 * Added a backtrace to the evil WSOD (White Screen of Death). Closes #4073. TODO: Clearer exceptions [Rick Olson]
1201
1202 * Added tracking of database and framework versions in script/about #4088 [charles.gerungan@gmail.com/Rick Olson]
1203
1204 * Added public/javascripts/application.js as a sample since it'll automatically be included in javascript_include_tag :defaults [David Heinemeier Hansson]
1205
1206 * Added socket cleanup for lighttpd, both before and after [David Heinemeier Hansson]
1207
1208 * Added automatic creation of tmp/ when running script/server [David Heinemeier Hansson]
1209
1210 * Added silence_stream that'll work on both STDERR or STDOUT or any other stream and deprecated silence_stderr in the process [David Heinemeier Hansson]
1211
1212 * Added reload! method to script/console to reload all models and others that include Reloadable without quitting the console #4056 [esad@esse.at]
1213
1214 * Added that rake rails:freeze:edge will now just export all the contents of the frameworks instead of just lib, so stuff like rails:update:scripts, rails:update:javascripts, and script/server on lighttpd still just works #4047 [David Heinemeier Hansson]
1215
1216 * Added fix for upload problems with lighttpd from Safari/IE to config/lighttpd.conf #3999 [Thijs van der Vossen]
1217
1218 * Added test:uncommitted to test changes since last checkin to Subversion #4035 [technomancy@gmail.com]
1219
1220 * Help script/about print the correct svn revision when in a non-English locale. #4026 [babie7a0@ybb.ne.jp]
1221
1222 * Add 'app' accessor to script/console as an instance of Integration::Session [Jamis Buck]
1223
1224 * Generator::Base#usage takes an optional message argument which defaults to Generator::Base#usage_message. [Jeremy Kemper]
1225
1226 * Remove the extraneous AR::Base.threaded_connections setting from the webrick server. [Jeremy Kemper]
1227
1228 * Add integration test support to app generation and testing [Jamis Buck]
1229
1230 * Added namespaces to all tasks, so for example load_fixtures is now db:fixtures:load. All the old task names are still valid, they just point to the new namespaced names. "rake -T" will only show the namespaced ones, though [David Heinemeier Hansson]
1231
1232 * CHANGED DEFAULT: ActiveRecord::Base.schema_format is now :ruby by default instead of :sql. This means that we'll assume you want to live in the world of db/schema.rb where the grass is green and the girls are pretty. If your schema contains un-dumpable elements, such as constraints or database-specific column types, you just got an invitation to either 1) patch the dumper to include foreign key support, 2) stop being db specific, or 3) just change the default in config/environment.rb to config.active_record.schema_format = :sql -- we even include an example for that on new Rails skeletons now. Brought to you by the federation of opinionated framework builders! [David Heinemeier Hansson]
1233
1234 * Added -r/--repeat option to script/process/spawner that offers the same loop protection as the spinner did. This deprecates the script/process/spinner, so it's no longer included in the default Rails skeleton, but still available for backwards compatibility #3461 [ror@andreas-s.net]
1235
1236 * Added collision option to template generation in generators #3329 [anna@wota.jp]. Examples:
1237
1238 m.template "stuff.config" , "config/stuff.config" , :collision => :skip
1239 m.template "auto-stamping", "config/generator.log", :collision => :force
1240
1241 * Added more information to script/plugin's doings to ease debugging #3755 [Rick Olson]
1242
1243 * Changed the default configuration for lighttpd to use tmp/sockets instead of log/ for the FastCGI sockets [David Heinemeier Hansson]
1244
1245 * Added a default configuration of the FileStore for fragment caching if tmp/cache is available, which makes action/fragment caching ready to use out of the box with no additional configuration [David Heinemeier Hansson]
1246
1247 * Changed the default session configuration to place sessions in tmp/sessions, if that directory is available, instead of /tmp (this essentially means a goodbye to 9/10 White Screen of Death errors and should have web hosting firms around the world cheering) [David Heinemeier Hansson]
1248
1249 * Added tmp/sessions, tmp/cache, and tmp/sockets as default directories in the Rails skeleton [David Heinemeier Hansson]
1250
1251 * Added that script/generate model will now automatically create a migration file for the model created. This can be turned off by calling the generator with --skip-migration [David Heinemeier Hansson]
1252
1253 * Added -d/--database option to the rails command, so you can do "rails --database=sqlite2 myapp" to start a new application preconfigured to use SQLite2 as the database. Removed the configuration examples from SQLite and PostgreSQL from the default MySQL configuration [David Heinemeier Hansson]
1254
1255 * Allow script/server -c /path/to/lighttpd.conf [Jeremy Kemper]
1256
1257 * Remove hardcoded path to reaper script in script/server [Jeremy Kemper]
1258
1259 * Update script.aculo.us to V1.5.3 [Thomas Fuchs]
1260
1261 * Added SIGTRAP signal handler to RailsFCGIHandler that'll force the process into a breakpoint after the next request. This breakpoint can then be caught with script/breakpointer and give you access to the Ruby image inside that process. Useful for debugging memory leaks among other things [David Heinemeier Hansson]
1262
1263 * Changed default lighttpd.conf to use CWD from lighttpd 1.4.10 that allows the same configuration to be used for both detach and not. Also ensured that auto-repeaping of FCGIs only happens when lighttpd is not detached. [David Heinemeier Hansson]
1264
1265 * Added Configuration#after_initialize for registering a block which gets called after the framework is fully initialized. Useful for things like per-environment configuration of plugins. [Michael Koziarski]
1266
1267 * Added check for RAILS_FRAMEWORK_ROOT constant that allows the Rails framework to be found in a different place than vendor/rails. Should be set in boot.rb. [David Heinemeier Hansson]
1268
1269 * Fixed that static requests could unlock the mutex guarding dynamic requests in the WEBrick servlet #3433 [tom@craz8.com]
1270
1271 * Fixed documentation tasks to work with Rake 0.7.0 #3563 [kazuhiko@fdiary.net]

1276
1277 * Show usage when script/plugin is called without arguments [tom@craz8.com]
1278
1279 * Corrected problems with plugin loader where plugins set 'name' incorrectly #3297 [anna@wota.jp]

1289 * Honor ActiveRecord::Base.pluralize_table_names when creating and destroying session store table. #3204. [rails@bencurtis.com, Marcel Molina Jr.]
1290
1291 *1.0.0* (December 13th, 2005)
1292
1293 * Update instructions on how to find and install generators. #3172. [Chad Fowler]
1294
1295 * Generator looks in vendor/generators also. [Chad Fowler]
1296
1297 * Generator copies files in binary mode. #3156 [minimudboy@gmail.com]
1298
1299 * Add builtin/ to the gemspec. Closes #3047. [Nicholas Seckar, Sam Stephenson]
1300
1301 * Add install.rb file to plugin generation which is loaded, if it exists, when you install a plugin. [Marcel Molina Jr.]
1302
1303 * Run initialize_logger in script/lighttpd to ensure the log file exists before tailing it. [Sam Stephenson]
1304
1305 * Make load_fixtures include csv fixtures. #3053. [me@mdaines.com]
1306
1307 * Fix freeze_gems so that the latest rails version is dumped by default. [Nicholas Seckar]
1308
1309 * script/plugin: handle root paths and plugin names which contain spaces. #2995 [justin@aspect.net]
1310
1311 * Model generator: correct relative path to test_helper in unit test. [Jeremy Kemper]
1312
1313 * Make the db_schema_dump task honor the SCHEMA environment variable if present the way db_schema_import does. #2931. [Blair Zajac]
1314
1315 * Have the lighttpd server script report the actual ip to which the server is bound. #2903. [Adam]
1316
1317 * Add plugin library directories to the load path after the lib directory so that libraries in the lib directory get precedence. #2910. [James Adam]
1318
1319 * Make help for the console command more explicit about how to specify the desired environment in which to run the console. #2911. [anonymous]
1320
1321 * PostgreSQL: the purge_test_database Rake task shouldn't explicitly specify the template0 template when creating a fresh test database. #2964 [Dreamer3]
1322
1323 * Introducing the session_migration generator. Creates an add_session_table migration. Allows generator to specify migrations directory. #2958, #2960 [Rick Olson]
1324
1325 * script/console uses RAILS_ENV environment variable if present. #2932 [Blair Zajac <blair@orcaware.com>
1326
1327 * Windows: eliminate the socket option in database.yml. #2924 [Wayne Vucenic <waynev@gmail.com>]
1328
1329 * Eliminate nil from newly generated logfiles. #2927 [Blair Zajac <blair@orcaware.com>]
1330
1331 * Rename Version constant to VERSION. #2802 [Marcel Molina Jr.]
1332
1333 * Eliminate Subversion dependencies in scripts/plugin. Correct install options. Introduce --force option to reinstall a plugin. Remove useless --long option for list. Use --quiet to quiet the download output and --revision to update to a specific svn revision. #2842 [Chad Fowler, Rick Olson]
1334
1335 * SQLite: the clone_structure_to_test and purge_test_database Rake tasks should always use the test environment. #2846 [Rick Olson]
1336
1337 * Make sure that legacy db tasks also reference :database for SQLite #2830 [kazuhiko@fdiary.net]
1338
1339 * Pass __FILE__ when evaluating plugins' init.rb. #2817 [James Adam]
1340
1341 * Better svn status matching for generators. #2814 [François Beausoleil <francois.beausoleil@gmail.com>, Blair Zajac <blair@orcaware.com>]
1342
1343 * Don't reload routes until plugins have been loaded so they have a chance to extend the routing capabilities [David Heinemeier Hansson]
1344
1345 * Don't detach or fork for script/server tailing [Nicholas Seckar]
1346
1347 * Changed all script/* to use #!/usr/bin/env ruby instead of hard-coded Ruby path. public/dispatcher.* still uses the hard-coded path for compatibility with web servers that don't have Ruby in path [David Heinemeier Hansson]
1348
1349 * Force RAILS_ENV to be "test" when running tests, so that ENV["RAILS_ENV"] = "production" in config/environment.rb doesn't wreck havok [David Heinemeier Hansson] #2660
1350
1351 * Correct versioning in :freeze_gems Rake task. #2778 [Jakob Skjerning, Jeremy Kemper]
1352
1353 * Added an omnipresent RailsInfoController with a properties action that delivers an HTML rendering of Rails::Info (but only when local_request? is true). Added a new default index.html which fetches this with Ajax. [Sam Stephenson]
1354
1355
1356 *0.14.3 (RC4)* (November 7th, 2005)
1357
1358 * Add 'add_new_scripts' rake task for adding new rails scripts to script/* [Jamis Buck]
1359
1360 * Remove bogus hyphen from script/process/reaper calls to 'ps'. #2767 [anonymous]
1361
1362 * Copy lighttpd.conf when it is first needed, instead of on app creation [Jamis Buck]
1363
1364 * Use require_library_or_gem 'fcgi' in script/server [Sam Stephenson]
1365
1366 * Added default lighttpd config in config/lighttpd.conf and added a default runner for lighttpd in script/server (works like script/server, but using lighttpd and FastCGI). It will use lighttpd if available, otherwise WEBrick. You can force either or using 'script/server lighttpd' or 'script/server webrick' [David Heinemeier Hansson]
1367
1368 * New configuration option config.plugin_paths which may be a single path like the default 'vendor/plugins' or an array of paths: ['vendor/plugins', 'lib/plugins']. [Jeremy Kemper]
1369
1370 * Plugins are discovered in nested paths, so you can organize your plugins directory as you like. [Jeremy Kemper]
1371
1372 * Refactor load_plugin from load_plugins. #2757 [alex.r.moon@gmail.com]
1373
1374 * Make use of silence_stderr in script/lighttpd, script/plugin, and Rails::Info [Sam Stephenson]
1375
1376 * Enable HTTP installation of plugins when svn isn't avaialable. Closes #2661. [Chad Fowler]
1377
1378 * Added script/about to display formatted Rails::Info output [Sam Stephenson]
1379
1380 * Added Rails::Info to catalog assorted information about a Rails application's environment [Sam Stephenson]
1381
1382 * Tail the logfile when running script/server lighttpd in the foreground [Sam Stephenson]
1383
1384 * Try to guess the port number from config/lighttpd.conf in script/server lighttpd [Sam Stephenson]
1385
1386 * Don't reap spawn-fcgi. #2727 [matthew@walker.wattle.id.au]
1387
1388 * Reaper knows how to find processes even if the dispatch path is very long. #2711 [matthew@walker.wattle.id.au]
1389
1390 * Make fcgi handler respond to TERM signals with an explicit exit [Jamis Buck]
1391
1392 * Added demonstration of fixture use to the test case generated by the model generator [David Heinemeier Hansson]
1393
1394 * If specified, pass PostgreSQL client character encoding to createdb. #2703 [Kazuhiko <kazuhiko@fdiary.net>]
1395
1396 * Catch CGI multipart parse errors. Wrap dispatcher internals in a failsafe response handler. [Jeremy Kemper]
1397
1398 * The freeze_gems Rake task accepts the VERSION environment variable to decide which version of Rails to pull into vendor/rails. [Chad Fowler, Jeremy Kemper]
1399
1400 * Removed script.aculo.us.js, builder.js and slider.js (preperation for move of scriptaculous extensions to plugins, core scriptaculous will remain in Railties) [Thomas Fuchs]
1401
1402 * The freeze_edge Rake task does smarter svn detection and can export a specific revision by passing the REVISION environment variable. For example: rake freeze_edge REVISION=1234. #2663 [Rick Olson]
1403
1404 * Comment database.yml and include PostgreSQL and SQLite examples. [Jeremy Kemper]
1405
1406 * Improve script/plugin on Windows. #2646 [Chad Fowler]
1407
1408 * The *_plugindoc Rake tasks look deeper into the plugins' lib directories. #2652 [bellis@deepthought.org]
1409
1410 * The PostgreSQL :db_structure_dump Rake task limits its dump to the schema search path in database.yml. [Anatol Pomozov <anatol.pomozov@gmail.com>]
1411
1412 * Add task to generate rdoc for all installed plugins. [Marcel Molina Jr.]
1413
1414 * Update script.aculo.us to V1.5_rc4 [Thomas Fuchs]
1415
1416 * Add default Mac + DarwinPorts MySQL socket locations to the app generator. [Jeremy Kemper]
1417
1418 * Migrations may be destroyed: script/destroy migration foo. #2635 [Charles M. Gerungan <charles.gerungan@gmail.com>, Jamis Buck, Jeremy Kemper]
1419
1420 * Added that plugins can carry generators and that generator stub files can be created along with new plugins using script/generate plugin <name> --with-generator [David Heinemeier Hansson]
1421
1422 * Removed app/apis as a default empty dir since its automatically created when using script/generate web_service [David Heinemeier Hansson]
1423
1424 * Added script/plugin to manage plugins (install, remove, list, etc) [Ryan Tomayko]
1425
1426 * Added test_plugins task: Run the plugin tests in vendor/plugins/**/test (or specify with PLUGIN=name) [David Heinemeier Hansson]
1427
1428 * Added plugin generator to create a stub structure for a new plugin in vendor/plugins (see "script/generate plugin" for help) [David Heinemeier Hansson]
1429
1430 * Fixed scaffold generator when started with only 1 parameter #2609 [self@mattmower.com]
1431
1432 * rake should run functional tests even if the unit tests have failures [Jim Weirich]
1433
1434 * Back off cleanpath to be symlink friendly. Closes #2533 [Nicholas Seckar]
1435
1436 * Load rake task files in alphabetical order so you can build dependencies and count on them #2554 [Blair Zajac]
1437
1438
1439 *0.14.2 (RC3)* (October 26th, 2005)
1440
1441 * Constants set in the development/test/production environment file are set in Object
1442
1443 * Scaffold generator pays attention to the controller name. #2562 [self@mattmower.com]
1444
1445 * Include tasks from vendor/plugins/*/tasks in the Rakefile #2545 [Rick Olson]
1446
1447
1448 *0.14.1 (RC2)* (October 19th, 2005)
1449
1450 * Don't clean RAILS_ROOT on windows
1451
1452 * Remove trailing '/' from RAILS_ROOT [Nicholas Seckar]
1453
1454 * Upgraded to Active Record 1.12.1 and Action Pack 1.10.1
1455
1456
1457 *0.14.0 (RC1)* (October 16th, 2005)
1458
1459 * Moved generator folder from RAILS_ROOT/generators to RAILS_ROOT/lib/generators [Tobias Lütke]
1460
1461 * Fix rake dev and related commands [Nicholas Seckar]
1462
1463 * The rails command tries to deduce your MySQL socket by running `mysql_config
1464 --socket`. If it fails, default to /path/to/your/mysql.sock
1465
1466 * Made the rails command use the application name for database names in the tailored database.yml file. Example: "rails ~/projects/blog" will use "blog_development" instead of "rails_development". [Florian Weber]
1467
1468 * Added Rails framework freezing tasks: freeze_gems (freeze to current gems), freeze_edge (freeze to Rails SVN trunk), unfreeze_rails (float with newest gems on system)
1469
1470 * Added update_javascripts task which will fetch all the latest js files from your current rails install. Use after updating rails. [Tobias Lütke]
1471
1472 * Added cleaning of RAILS_ROOT to useless elements such as '../non-dot-dot/'. Provides cleaner backtraces and error messages. [Nicholas Seckar]
1473
1474 * Made the instantiated/transactional fixtures settings be controlled through Rails::Initializer. Transactional and non-instantiated fixtures are default from now on. [Florian Weber]
1475
1476 * Support using different database adapters for development and test with ActiveRecord::Base.schema_format = :ruby [Sam Stephenson]
1477
1478 * Make webrick work with session(:off)
1479
1480 * Add --version, -v option to the Rails command. Closes #1840. [stancell]
1481
1482 * Update Prototype to V1.4.0_pre11, script.aculo.us to V1.5_rc3 [2504] and fix the rails generator to include the new .js files [Thomas Fuchs]
1483
1484 * Make the generator skip a file if it already exists and is identical to the new file.
1485
1486 * Add experimental plugin support #2335
1487
1488 * Made Rakefile aware of new .js files in script.aculo.us [Thomas Fuchs]
1489
1490 * Make table_name and controller_name in generators honor AR::Base.pluralize_table_names. #1216 #2213 [kazuhiko@fdiary.net]
1491
1492 * Clearly label functional and unit tests in rake stats output. #2297 [lasse.koskela@gmail.com]
1493
1494 * Make the migration generator only check files ending in *.rb when calculating the next file name #2317 [Chad Fowler]
1495
1496 * Added prevention of duplicate migrations from the generator #2240 [François Beausoleil]
1497
1498 * Add db_schema_dump and db_schema_import rake tasks to work with the new ActiveRecord::SchemaDumper (for dumping a schema to and reading a schema from a ruby file).
1499
1500 * Reformed all the config/environments/* files to conform to the new Rails::Configuration approach. Fully backwards compatible.
1501
1502 * Added create_sessions_table, drop_sessions_table, and purge_sessions_table as rake tasks for databases that supports migrations (MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite) to get a table for use with CGI::Session::ActiveRecordStore
1503
1504 * Added dump of schema version to the db_structure_dump task for databases that support migrations #1835 [Rick Olson]
1505
1506 * Fixed script/profiler for Ruby 1.8.2 #1863 [Rick Olson]
1507
1508 * Fixed clone_structure_to_test task for SQLite #1864 [jon@burningbush.us]
1509
1510 * Added -m/--mime-types option to the WEBrick server, so you can specify a Apache-style mime.types file to load #2059 [ask@develooper.com]
1511
1512 * Added -c/--svn option to the generator that'll add new files and remove destroyed files using svn add/revert/remove as appropriate #2064 [Kevin Clark]
1513
1514 * Added -c/--charset option to WEBrick server, so you can specify a default charset (which without changes is UTF-8) #2084 [wejn@box.cz]
1515
1516 * Make the default stats task extendable by modifying the STATS_DIRECTORIES constant
1517
1518 * Allow the selected environment to define RAILS_DEFAULT_LOGGER, and have Rails::Initializer use it if it exists.
1519
1520 * Moved all the shared tasks from Rakefile into Rails, so that the Rakefile is empty and doesn't require updating.
1521
1522 * Added Rails::Initializer and Rails::Configuration to abstract all of the common setup out of config/environment.rb (uses config/boot.rb to bootstrap the initializer and paths)
1523
1524 * Fixed the scaffold generator to fail right away if the database isn't accessible instead of in mid-air #1169 [Chad Fowler]
1525
1526 * Corrected project-local generator location in scripts.rb #2010 [Michael Schuerig]
1527
1528 * Don't require the environment just to clear the logs #2093 [Scott Barron]
1529
1530 * Make the default rakefile read *.rake files from config/tasks (for easy extension of the rakefile by e.g. generators)
1531
1532 * Only load breakpoint in development mode and when BREAKPOINT_SERVER_PORT is defined.
1533
1534 * Allow the --toggle-spin switch on process/reaper to be negated
1535
1536 * Replace render_partial with render :partial in scaffold generator [Nicholas Seckar]
1537
1538 * Added -w flag to ps in process/reaper #1934 [Scott Barron]
1539
1540 * Allow ERb in the database.yml file (just like with fixtures), so you can pull out the database configuration in environment variables #1822 [Duane Johnson]
1541
1542 * Added convenience controls for FCGI processes (especially when managed remotely): spinner, spawner, and reaper. They reside in script/process. More details can be had by calling them with -h/--help.
1543
1544 * Added load_fixtures task to the Rakefile, which will load all the fixtures into the database for the current environment #1791 [Marcel Molina Jr.]
1545
1546 * Added an empty robots.txt to public/, so that web servers asking for it won't trigger a dynamic call, like favicon.ico #1738 [Michael Schubert]
1547
1548 * Dropped the 'immediate close-down' of FCGI processes since it didn't work consistently and produced bad responses when it didn't. So now a TERM ensures exit after the next request (just as if the process is handling a request when it receives the signal). This means that you'll have to 'nudge' all FCGI processes with a request in order to ensure that they have all reloaded. This can be done by something like ./script/process/repear --nudge 'http://www.myapp.com' --instances 10, which will load the myapp site 10 times (and thus hit all of the 10 FCGI processes once, enough to shut down).
1549
1550
1551 *0.13.1* (11 July, 2005)
1552
1553 * Look for app-specific generators in RAILS_ROOT/generators rather than the clunky old RAILS_ROOT/script/generators. Nobody really uses this feature except for the unit tests, so it's a negligible-impact change. If you want to work with third-party generators, drop them in ~/.rails/generators or simply install gems.
1554
1555 * Fixed that each request with the WEBrick adapter would open a new database connection #1685 [Sam Stephenson]
1556
1557 * Added support for SQL Server in the database rake tasks #1652 [Ken Barker] Note: osql and scptxfr may need to be installed on your development environment. This involves getting the .exes and a .rll (scptxfr) from a production SQL Server (not developer level SQL Server). Add their location to your Environment PATH and you are all set.
1558
1559 * Added a VERSION parameter to the migrate task that allows you to do "rake migrate VERSION=34" to migrate to the 34th version traveling up or down depending on the current version
1560
1561 * Extend Ruby version check to include RUBY_RELEASE_DATE >= '2005-12-25', the final Ruby 1.8.2 release #1674 [court3nay]
1562
1563 * Improved documentation for environment config files #1625 [court3nay]
1564
1565
1566 *0.13.0* (6 July, 2005)
1567
1568 * Changed the default logging level in config/environment.rb to INFO for production (so SQL statements won't be logged)
1569
1570 * Added migration generator: ./script/generate migration add_system_settings
1571
1572 * Added "migrate" as rake task to execute all the pending migrations from db/migrate
1573
1574 * Fixed that model generator would make fixtures plural, even if ActiveRecord::Base.pluralize_table_names was false #1185 [Marcel Molina Jr.]
1575
1576 * Added a DOCTYPE of HTML transitional to the HTML files generated by Rails #1124 [Michael Koziarski]
1577
1578 * SIGTERM also gracefully exits dispatch.fcgi. Ignore SIGUSR1 on Windows.
1579
1580 * Add the option to manually manage garbage collection in the FastCGI dispatcher. Set the number of requests between GC runs in your public/dispatch.fcgi [Stefan Kaes]
1581
1582 * Allow dynamic application reloading for dispatch.fcgi processes by sending a SIGHUP. If the process is currently handling a request, the request will be allowed to complete first. This allows production fcgi's to be reloaded without having to restart them.
1583
1584 * RailsFCGIHandler (dispatch.fcgi) no longer tries to explicitly flush $stdout (CgiProcess#out always calls flush)
1585
1586 * Fixed rakefile actions against PostgreSQL when the password is all numeric #1462 [Michael Schubert]
1587
1588 * ActionMailer::Base subclasses are reloaded with the other rails components #1262
1589
1590 * Made the WEBrick adapter not use a mutex around action performance if ActionController::Base.allow_concurrency is true (default is false)
1591
1592 * Fixed that mailer generator generated fixtures/plural while units expected fixtures/singular #1457 [Scott Barron]
1593
1594 * Added a 'whiny nil' that's aim to ensure that when users pass nil to methods where that isn't appropriate, instead of NoMethodError? and the name of some method used by the framework users will see a message explaining what type of object was expected. Only active in test and development environments by default #1209 [Michael Koziarski]
1595
1596 * Fixed the test_helper.rb to be safe for requiring controllers from multiple spots, like app/controllers/article_controller.rb and app/controllers/admin/article_controller.rb, without reloading the environment twice #1390 [Nicholas Seckar]
1597
1598 * Fixed Webrick to escape + characters in URL's the same way that lighttpd and apache do #1397 [Nicholas Seckar]
1599
1600 * Added -e/--environment option to script/runner #1408 [François Beausoleil]
1601
1602 * Modernize the scaffold generator to use the simplified render and test methods and to change style from @params["id"] to params[:id]. #1367
1603
1604 * Added graceful exit from pressing CTRL-C during the run of the rails command #1150 [Caleb Tennis]
1605
1606 * Allow graceful exits for dispatch.fcgi processes by sending a SIGUSR1. If the process is currently handling a request, the request will be allowed to complete and then will terminate itself. If a request is not being handled, the process is terminated immediately (via #exit). This basically works like restart graceful on Apache. [Jamis Buck]
1607
1608 * Made dispatch.fcgi more robust by catching fluke errors and retrying unless its a permanent condition. [Jamis Buck]
1609
1610 * Added console --profile for profiling an IRB session #1154 [Jeremy Kemper]
1611
1612 * Changed console_sandbox into console --sandbox #1154 [Jeremy Kemper]
1613
1614
1615 *0.12.1* (20th April, 2005)
1616
1617 * Upgraded to Active Record 1.10.1, Action Pack 1.8.1, Action Mailer 0.9.1, Action Web Service 0.7.1
1618
1619
1620 *0.12.0* (19th April, 2005)
1621
1622 * Fixed that purge_test_database would use database settings from the development environment when recreating the test database #1122 [rails@cogentdude.com]
1623
1624 * Added script/benchmarker to easily benchmark one or more statement a number of times from within the environment. Examples:
1625
1626 # runs the one statement 10 times
1627 script/benchmarker 10 'Person.expensive_method(10)'
1628
1629 # pits the two statements against each other with 50 runs each
1630 script/benchmarker 50 'Person.expensive_method(10)' 'Person.cheap_method(10)'
1631
1632 * Added script/profiler to easily profile a single statement from within the environment. Examples:
1633
1634 script/profiler 'Person.expensive_method(10)'
1635 script/profiler 'Person.expensive_method(10)' 10 # runs the statement 10 times
1636
1637 * Added Rake target clear_logs that'll truncate all the *.log files in log/ to zero #1079 [Lucas Carlson]
1638
1639 * Added lazy typing for generate, such that ./script/generate cn == ./script/generate controller and the likes #1051 [k@v2studio.com]
1640
1641 * Fixed that ownership is brought over in pg_dump during tests for PostgreSQL #1060 [pburleson]
1642
1643 * Upgraded to Active Record 1.10.0, Action Pack 1.8.0, Action Mailer 0.9.0, Action Web Service 0.7.0, Active Support 1.0.4
1644
1645
1646 *0.11.1* (27th March, 2005)
1647
1648 * Fixed the dispatch.fcgi use of a logger
1649
1650 * Upgraded to Active Record 1.9.1, Action Pack 1.7.0, Action Mailer 0.8.1, Action Web Service 0.6.2, Active Support 1.0.3
1651
1652
1653 *0.11.0* (22th March, 2005)
1654
1655 * Removed SCRIPT_NAME from the WEBrick environment to prevent conflicts with PATH_INFO #896 [Nicholas Seckar]
1656
1657 * Removed ?$1 from the dispatch.f/cgi redirect line to get rid of 'complete/path/from/request.html' => nil being in the @params now that the ENV["REQUEST_URI"] is used to determine the path #895 [dblack/Nicholas Seckar]
1658
1659 * Added additional error handling to the FastCGI dispatcher to catch even errors taking down the entire process
1660
1661 * Improved the generated scaffold code a lot to take advantage of recent Rails developments #882 [Tobias Lütke]
1662
1663 * Combined the script/environment.rb used for gems and regular files version. If vendor/rails/* has all the frameworks, then files version is used, otherwise gems #878 [Nicholas Seckar]
1664
1665 * Changed .htaccess to allow dispatch.* to be called from a sub-directory as part of the push with Action Pack to make Rails work on non-vhost setups #826 [Nicholas Seckar/Tobias Lütke]
1666
1667 * Added script/runner which can be used to run code inside the environment by eval'ing the first parameter. Examples:
1668
1669 ./script/runner 'ReminderService.deliver'
1670 ./script/runner 'Mailer.receive(STDIN.read)'
1671
1672 This makes it easier to do CRON and postfix scripts without actually making a script just to trigger 1 line of code.
1673
1674 * Fixed webrick_server cookie handling to allow multiple cookes to be set at once #800, #813 [dave@cherryville.org]
1675
1676 * Fixed the Rakefile's interaction with postgresql to:
1677
1678 1. Use PGPASSWORD and PGHOST in the environment to fix prompting for
1679 passwords when connecting to a remote db and local socket connections.
1680 2. Add a '-x' flag to pg_dump which stops it dumping privileges #807 [rasputnik]
1681 3. Quote the user name and use template0 when dumping so the functions doesn't get dumped too #855 [pburleson]
1682 4. Use the port if available #875 [madrobby]
1683
1684 * Upgraded to Active Record 1.9.0, Action Pack 1.6.0, Action Mailer 0.8.0, Action Web Service 0.6.1, Active Support 1.0.2
1685
1686
1687 *0.10.1* (7th March, 2005)
1688
1689 * Fixed rake stats to ignore editor backup files like model.rb~ #791 [Sebastian Kanthak]
1690
1691 * Added exception shallowing if the DRb server can't be started (not worth making a fuss about to distract new users) #779 [Tobias Lütke]
1692
1693 * Added an empty favicon.ico file to the public directory of new applications (so the logs are not spammed by its absence)
1694
1695 * Fixed that scaffold generator new template should use local variable instead of instance variable #778 [Dan Peterson]
1696
1697 * Allow unit tests to run on a remote server for PostgreSQL #781 [adamm@galacticasoftware.com]
1698
1699 * Added web_service generator (run ./script/generate web_service for help) #776 [Leon Bredt]
1700
1701 * Added app/apis and components to code statistics report #729 [Scott Barron]
1702
1703 * Fixed WEBrick server to use ABSOLUTE_RAILS_ROOT instead of working_directory #687 [Nicholas Seckar]
1704
1705 * Fixed rails_generator to be usable without RubyGems #686 [Cristi BALAN]
1706
1707 * Fixed -h/--help for generate and destroy generators #331
1708
1709 * Added begin/rescue around the FCGI dispatcher so no uncaught exceptions can bubble up to kill the process (logs to log/fastcgi.crash.log)
1710
1711 * Fixed that association#count would produce invalid sql when called sequentialy #659 [kanis@comcard.de]
1712
1713 * Fixed test/mocks/testing to the correct test/mocks/test #740
1714
1715 * Added early failure if the Ruby version isn't 1.8.2 or above #735
1716
1717 * Removed the obsolete -i/--index option from the WEBrick servlet #743
1718
1719 * Upgraded to Active Record 1.8.0, Action Pack 1.5.1, Action Mailer 0.7.1, Action Web Service 0.6.0, Active Support 1.0.1
1720
1721
1722 *0.10.0* (24th February, 2005)
1723
1724 * Changed default IP binding for WEBrick from 127.0.0.1 to 0.0.0.0 so that the server is accessible both locally and remotely #696 [Marcel Molina Jr.]
1725
1726 * Fixed that script/server -d was broken so daemon mode couldn't be used #687 [Nicholas Seckar]
1727
1728 * Upgraded to breakpoint 92 which fixes:
1729
1730 * overload IRB.parse_opts(), fixes #443
1731 => breakpoints in tests work even when running them via rake
1732 * untaint handlers, might fix an issue discussed on the Rails ML
1733 * added verbose mode to breakpoint_client
1734 * less noise caused by breakpoint_client by default
1735 * ignored TerminateLineInput exception in signal handler
1736 => quiet exit on Ctrl-C
1737
1738 * Added support for independent components residing in /components. Example:
1739
1740 Controller: components/list/items_controller.rb
1741 (holds a List::ItemsController class with uses_component_template_root called)
1742
1743 Model : components/list/item.rb
1744 (namespace is still shared, so an Item model in app/models will take precedence)
1745
1746 Views : components/list/items/show.rhtml
1747
1748
1749 * Added --sandbox option to script/console that'll roll back all changes made to the database when you quit #672 [Jeremy Kemper]
1750
1751 * Added 'recent' as a rake target that'll run tests for files that changed in the last 10 minutes #612 [Jeremy Kemper]
1752
1753 * Changed script/console to default to development environment and drop --no-inspect #650 [Jeremy Kemper]
1754
1755 * Added that the 'fixture :posts' syntax can be used for has_and_belongs_to_many fixtures where a model doesn't exist #572 [Jeremy Kemper]
1756
1757 * Added that running test_units and test_functional now performs the clone_structure_to_test as well #566 [rasputnik]
1758
1759 * Added new generator framework that informs about its doings on generation and enables updating and destruction of generated artifacts. See the new script/destroy and script/update for more details #487 [Jeremy Kemper]
1760
1761 * Added Action Web Service as a new add-on framework for Action Pack [Leon Bredt]
1762
1763 * Added Active Support as an independent utility and standard library extension bundle
1764
1765 * Upgraded to Active Record 1.7.0, Action Pack 1.5.0, Action Mailer 0.7.0
1766
1767
1768 *0.9.5* (January 25th, 2005)
1769
1770 * Fixed dependency reloading by switching to a remove_const approach where all Active Records, Active Record Observers, and Action Controllers are reloading by undefining their classes. This enables you to remove methods in all three types and see the change reflected immediately and it fixes #539. This also means that only those three types of classes will benefit from the const_missing and reloading approach. If you want other classes (like some in lib/) to reload, you must use require_dependency to do it.
1771
1772 * Added Florian Gross' latest version of Breakpointer and friends that fixes a variaty of bugs #441 [Florian Gross]
1773
1774 * Fixed skeleton Rakefile to work with sqlite3 out of the box #521 [rasputnik]
1775
1776 * Fixed that script/breakpointer didn't get the Ruby path rewritten as the other scripts #523 [brandt@kurowski.net]
1777
1778 * Fixed handling of syntax errors in models that had already been succesfully required once in the current interpreter
1779
1780 * Fixed that models that weren't referenced in associations weren't being reloaded in the development mode by reinstating the reload
1781
1782 * Fixed that generate scaffold would produce bad functional tests
1783
1784 * Fixed that FCGI can also display SyntaxErrors
1785
1786 * Upgraded to Active Record 1.6.0, Action Pack 1.4.0
1787
1788
1789 *0.9.4.1* (January 18th, 2005)
1790
1791 * Added 5-second timeout to WordNet alternatives on creating reserved-word models #501 [Marcel Molina Jr.]
1792
1793 * Fixed binding of caller #496 [Alexey]
1794
1795 * Upgraded to Active Record 1.5.1, Action Pack 1.3.1, Action Mailer 0.6.1
1796
1797
1798 *0.9.4* (January 17th, 2005)
1799
1800 * Added that ApplicationController will catch a ControllerNotFound exception if someone attempts to access a url pointing to an unexisting controller [Tobias Lütke]
1801
1802 * Flipped code-to-test ratio around to be more readable #468 [Scott Baron]
1803
1804 * Fixed log file permissions to be 666 instead of 777 (so they're not executable) #471 [Lucas Carlson]
1805
1806 * Fixed that auto reloading would some times not work or would reload the models twice #475 [Tobias Lütke]
1807
1808 * Added rewrite rules to deal with caching to public/.htaccess
1809
1810 * Added the option to specify a controller name to "generate scaffold" and made the default controller name the plural form of the model.
1811
1812 * Added that rake clone_structure_to_test, db_structure_dump, and purge_test_database tasks now pick up the source database to use from
1813 RAILS_ENV instead of just forcing development #424 [Tobias Lütke]
1814
1815 * Fixed script/console to work with Windows (that requires the use of irb.bat) #418 [Chris McGrath]
1816
1817 * Fixed WEBrick servlet slowdown over time by restricting the load path reloading to mod_ruby
1818
1819 * Removed Fancy Indexing as a default option on the WEBrick servlet as it made it harder to use various caching schemes
1820
1821 * Upgraded to Active Record 1.5, Action Pack 1.3, Action Mailer 0.6
1822
1823
1824 *0.9.3* (January 4th, 2005)
1825
1826 * Added support for SQLite in the auto-dumping/importing of schemas for development -> test #416
1827
1828 * Added automated rewriting of the shebang lines on installs through the gem rails command #379 [Manfred Stienstra]
1829
1830 * Added ActionMailer::Base.deliver_method = :test to the test environment so that mail objects are available in ActionMailer::Base.deliveries
1831 for functional testing.
1832
1833 * Added protection for creating a model through the generators with a name of an existing class, like Thread or Date.
1834 It'll even offer you a synonym using wordnet.princeton.edu as a look-up. No, I'm not kidding :) [Florian Gross]
1835
1836 * Fixed dependency management to happen in a unified fashion for Active Record and Action Pack using the new Dependencies module. This means that
1837 the environment options needs to change from:
1838
1839 Before in development.rb:
1840 ActionController::Base.reload_dependencies = true  
1841 ActiveRecord::Base.reload_associations     = true
1842
1843 Now in development.rb:
1844 Dependencies.mechanism = :load
1845
1846 Before in production.rb and test.rb:
1847 ActionController::Base.reload_dependencies = false
1848 ActiveRecord::Base.reload_associations     = false
1849
1850 Now in production.rb and test.rb:
1851 Dependencies.mechanism = :require
1852
1853 * Fixed problems with dependency caching and controller hierarchies on Ruby 1.8.2 in development mode #351
1854
1855 * Fixed that generated action_mailers doesnt need to require the action_mailer since thats already done in the environment #382 [Lucas Carlson]
1856
1857 * Upgraded to Action Pack 1.2.0 and Active Record 1.4.0
1858
1859
1860 *0.9.2*
1861
1862 * Fixed CTRL-C exists from the Breakpointer to be a clean affair without error dumping [Kent Sibilev]
1863
1864 * Fixed "rake stats" to work with sub-directories in models and controllers and to report the code to test ration [Scott Baron]
1865
1866 * Added that Active Record associations are now reloaded instead of cleared to work with the new const_missing hook in Active Record.
1867
1868 * Added graceful handling of an inaccessible log file by redirecting output to STDERR with a warning #330 [rainmkr]
1869
1870 * Added support for a -h/--help parameter in the generator #331 [Ulysses]
1871
1872 * Fixed that File.expand_path in config/environment.rb would fail when dealing with symlinked public directories [mjobin]
1873
1874 * Upgraded to Action Pack 1.1.0 and Active Record 1.3.0
1875
1876
1877 *0.9.1*
1878
1879 * Upgraded to Action Pack 1.0.1 for important bug fix
1880
1881 * Updated gem dependencies
1882
1883
1884 *0.9.0*
1885
1886 * Renamed public/dispatch.servlet to script/server -- it wasn't really dispatching anyway as its delegating calls to public/dispatch.rb
1887
1888 * Renamed AbstractApplicationController and abstract_application.rb to ApplicationController and application.rb, so that it will be possible
1889 for the framework to automatically pick up on app/views/layouts/application.rhtml and app/helpers/application.rb
1890
1891 * Added script/console that makes it even easier to start an IRB session for interacting with the domain model. Run with no-args to
1892 see help.
1893
1894 * Added breakpoint support through the script/breakpointer client. This means that you can break out of execution at any point in
1895 the code, investigate and change the model, AND then resume execution! Example:
1896
1897 class WeblogController < ActionController::Base
1898 def index
1899 @posts = Post.find_all
1900 breakpoint "Breaking out from the list"
1901 end
1902 end
1903
1904 So the controller will accept the action, run the first line, then present you with a IRB prompt in the breakpointer window.
1905 Here you can do things like:
1906
1907 Executing breakpoint "Breaking out from the list" at .../webrick_server.rb:16 in 'breakpoint'
1908
1909 >> @posts.inspect
1910 => "[#<Post:0x14a6be8 @attributes={\"title\"=>nil, \"body\"=>nil, \"id\"=>\"1\"}>,
1911 #<Post:0x14a6620 @attributes={\"title\"=>\"Rails you know!\", \"body\"=>\"Only ten..\", \"id\"=>\"2\"}>]"
1912 >> @posts.first.title = "hello from a breakpoint"
1913 => "hello from a breakpoint"
1914
1915 ...and even better is that you can examine how your runtime objects actually work:
1916
1917 >> f = @posts.first
1918 => #<Post:0x13630c4 @attributes={"title"=>nil, "body"=>nil, "id"=>"1"}>
1919 >> f.
1920 Display all 152 possibilities? (y or n)
1921
1922 Finally, when you're ready to resume execution, you press CTRL-D
1923
1924 * Changed environments to be configurable through an environment variable. By default, the environment is "development", but you
1925 can change that and set your own by configuring the Apache vhost with a string like (mod_env must be available on the server):
1926
1927 SetEnv RAILS_ENV production
1928
1929 ...if you're using WEBrick, you can pick the environment to use with the command-line parameters -e/--environment, like this:
1930
1931 ruby public/dispatcher.servlet -e production
1932
1933 * Added a new default environment called "development", which leaves the production environment to be tuned exclusively for that.
1934
1935 * Added a start_server in the root of the Rails application to make it even easier to get started
1936
1937 * Fixed public/.htaccess to use RewriteBase and share the same rewrite rules for all the dispatch methods
1938
1939 * Fixed webrick_server to handle requests in a serialized manner (the Rails reloading infrastructure is not thread-safe)
1940
1941 * Added support for controllers in directories. So you can have:
1942
1943 app/controllers/account_controller.rb # URL: /account/
1944 app/controllers/admin/account_controller.rb # URL: /admin/account/
1945
1946 NOTE: You need to update your public/.htaccess with the new rules to pick it up
1947
1948 * Added reloading for associations and dependencies under cached environments like FastCGI and mod_ruby. This makes it possible to use
1949 those environments for development. This is turned on by default, but can be turned off with
1950 ActiveRecord::Base.reload_associations = false and ActionController::Base.reload_dependencies = false in production environments.
1951
1952 * Added support for sub-directories in app/models. So now you can have something like Basecamp with:
1953
1954 app/models/accounting
1955 app/models/project
1956 app/models/participants
1957 app/models/settings
1958
1959 It's poor man's namespacing, but only for file-system organization. You still require files just like before.
1960 Nothing changes inside the files themselves.
1961
1962
1963 * Fixed a few references in the tests generated by new_mailer [Jeremy Kemper]
1964
1965 * Added support for mocks in testing with test/mocks
1966
1967 * Cleaned up the environments a bit and added global constant RAILS_ROOT
1968
1969
1970 *0.8.5* (9)
1971
1972 * Made dev-util available to all tests, so you can insert breakpoints in any test case to get an IRB prompt at that point [Jeremy Kemper]:
1973
1974 def test_complex_stuff
1975 @david.projects << @new_project
1976 breakpoint "Let's have a closer look at @david"
1977 end
1978
1979 You need to install dev-utils yourself for this to work ("gem install dev-util").
1980
1981 * Added shared generator behavior so future upgrades should be possible without manually copying over files [Jeremy Kemper]
1982
1983 * Added the new helper style to both controller and helper templates [Jeremy Kemper]
1984
1985 * Added new_crud generator for creating a model and controller at the same time with explicit scaffolding [Jeremy Kemper]
1986
1987 * Added configuration of Test::Unit::TestCase.fixture_path to test_helper to concide with the new AR fixtures style
1988
1989 * Fixed that new_model was generating singular table/fixture names
1990
1991 * Upgraded to Action Mailer 0.4.0
1992
1993 * Upgraded to Action Pack 0.9.5
1994
1995 * Upgraded to Active Record 1.1.0
1996
1997
1998 *0.8.0 (15)*
1999
2000 * Removed custom_table_name option for new_model now that the Inflector is as powerful as it is
2001
2002 * Changed the default rake action to just do testing and separate API generation and coding statistics into a "doc" task.
2003
2004 * Fixed WEBrick dispatcher to handle missing slashes in the URLs gracefully [alexey]
2005
2006 * Added user option for all postgresql tool calls in the rakefile [elvstone]
2007
2008 * Fixed problem with running "ruby public/dispatch.servlet" instead of "cd public; ruby dispatch.servlet" [alexey]
2009
2010 * Fixed WEBrick server so that it no longer hardcodes the ruby interpreter used to "ruby" but will get the one used based
2011 on the Ruby runtime configuration. [Marcel Molina Jr.]
2012
2013 * Fixed Dispatcher so it'll route requests to magic_beans to MagicBeansController/magic_beans_controller.rb [Caio Chassot]
2014
2015 * "new_controller MagicBeans" and "new_model SubscriptionPayments" will now both behave properly as they use the new Inflector.
2016
2017 * Fixed problem with MySQL foreign key constraint checks in Rake :clone_production_structure_to_test target [Andreas Schwarz]
2018
2019 * Changed WEBrick server to by default be auto-reloading, which is slower but makes source changes instant.
2020 Class compilation cache can be turned on with "-c" or "--cache-classes".
2021
2022 * Added "-b/--binding" option to WEBrick dispatcher to bind the server to a specific IP address (default: 127.0.0.1) [Kevin Temp]
2023
2024 * dispatch.fcgi now DOESN'T set FCGI_PURE_RUBY as it was slowing things down for now reason [Andreas Schwarz]
2025
2026 * Added new_mailer generator to work with Action Mailer
2027
2028 * Included new framework: Action Mailer 0.3
2029
2030 * Upgraded to Action Pack 0.9.0
2031
2032 * Upgraded to Active Record 1.0.0
2033
2034
2035 *0.7.0*
2036
2037 * Added an optional second argument to the new_model script that allows the programmer to specify the table name,
2038 which will used to generate a custom table_name method in the model and will also be used in the creation of fixtures.
2039 [Kevin Radloff]
2040
2041 * script/new_model now turns AccountHolder into account_holder instead of accountholder [Kevin Radloff]
2042
2043 * Fixed the faulty handleing of static files with WEBrick [Andreas Schwarz]
2044
2045 * Unified function_test_helper and unit_test_helper into test_helper
2046
2047 * Fixed bug with the automated production => test database dropping on PostgreSQL [dhawkins]
2048
2049 * create_fixtures in both the functional and unit test helper now turns off the log during fixture generation
2050 and can generate more than one fixture at a time. Which makes it possible for assignments like:
2051
2052 @people, @projects, @project_access, @companies, @accounts =
2053 create_fixtures "people", "projects", "project_access", "companies", "accounts"
2054
2055 * Upgraded to Action Pack 0.8.5 (locally-scoped variables, partials, advanced send_file)
2056
2057 * Upgraded to Active Record 0.9.5 (better table_name guessing, cloning, find_all_in_collection)
2058
2059
2060 *0.6.5*
2061
2062 * No longer specifies a template for rdoc, so it'll use whatever is default (you can change it in the rakefile)
2063
2064 * The new_model generator will now use the same rules for plural wordings as Active Record
2065 (so Category will give categories, not categorys) [Kevin Radloff]
2066
2067 * dispatch.fcgi now sets FCGI_PURE_RUBY to true to ensure that it's the Ruby version that's loaded [danp]
2068
2069 * Made the GEM work with Windows
2070
2071 * Fixed bug where mod_ruby would "forget" the load paths added when switching between controllers
2072
2073 * PostgreSQL are now supported for the automated production => test database dropping [Kevin Radloff]
2074
2075 * Errors thrown by the dispatcher are now properly handled in FCGI.
2076
2077 * Upgraded to Action Pack 0.8.0 (lots and lots and lots of fixes)
2078
2079 * Upgraded to Active Record 0.9.4 (a bunch of fixes)
2080
2081
2082 *0.6.0*
2083
2084 * Added AbstractionApplicationController as a superclass for all controllers generated. This class can be used
2085 to carry filters and methods that are to be shared by all. It has an accompanying ApplicationHelper that all
2086 controllers will also automatically have available.
2087
2088 * Added environments that can be included from any script to get the full Active Record and Action Controller
2089 context running. This can be used by maintenance scripts or to interact with the model through IRB. Example:
2090
2091 require 'config/environments/production'
2092
2093 for account in Account.find_all
2094 account.recalculate_interests
2095 end
2096
2097 A short migration script for an account model that had it's interest calculation strategy changed.
2098
2099 * Accessing the index of a controller with "/weblog" will now redirect to "/weblog/" (only on Apache, not WEBrick)
2100
2101 * Simplified the default Apache config so even remote requests are served off CGI as a default.
2102 You'll now have to do something specific to activate mod_ruby and FCGI (like using the force urls).
2103 This should make it easier for new comers that start on an external server.
2104
2105 * Added more of the necessary Apache options to .htaccess to make it easier to setup

2115 (through GET requests or otherwise)
2116
2117 * Added lib in root as a place to store app specific libraries
2118
2119 * Added lib and vendor to load_path, so anything store within can be loaded directly.
2120 Hence lib/redcloth.rb can be loaded with require "redcloth"
