## 4.0.0 (2015-07-30)
This major release adds JSON column support in PostgreSQL, limited support for
versioning associations, various new configuration options, and a year's worth
of bug fixes. Thanks to everyone who helped test the two betas and two release
candidates.
### Breaking Changes
- Using a Rails initializer to reopen PaperTrail::Version or otherwise extend
PaperTrail is no longer recommended. An alternative is described in the
readme. See https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/pull/557 and
https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/pull/492.
- If you depend on the `RSpec` or `Cucumber` helpers, you must
[require them in your test helper](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail#testing).
- [#566](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/pull/566) - Removed deprecated
methods `paper_trail_on` and `paper_trail_off`. Use `paper_trail_on!` and
`paper_trail_off!` instead.
- [#458](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/pull/458) - Version metadata
(the `:meta` option) from AR attributes for `create` events will now save the
current value instead of `nil`.
- [#391](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/issues/391) - `object_changes`
value should dump to `YAML` as a normal `Hash` instead of an
`ActiveSupport::HashWithIndifferentAccess`.
- [#375](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/pull/375) /
[#374](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/issues/374) /
[#354](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/issues/354) /
[#131](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/issues/131) -
Versions are now saved with an `after_` callback, instead of a `before_`
callback. This ensures that the timestamp field for a version matches the
corresponding timestamp in the model.
- `3da1f104` - `PaperTrail.config` and `PaperTrail.configure` are now
identical: both return the `PaperTrail::Config` instance and also
yield it if a block is provided.
### Added
- [#525](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/issues/525) /
[#512](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/pull/512) -
Support for virtual accessors and redefined setter and getter methods.
- [#518](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/pull/518) - Support for
querying against PostgreSQL's
[`JSON` and `JSONB` column types](http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.4/static/datatype-json.html)
via `PaperTrail::VersionConcern#where_object` and
`PaperTrail::VersionConcern#where_object_changes`
- [#507](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/pull/507) -
New option: `:save_changes` controls whether or not to save changes to the
`object_changes` column (if it exists).
- [#500](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/pull/500) - Support for
passing an empty array to the `on` option (`on: []`) to disable all
automatic versioning.
- [#494](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/issues/494) - The install
generator will warn the user if the migration they are attempting to
generate already exists.
- [#484](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/pull/484) - Support for
[PostgreSQL's `JSONB` Type](http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.4/static/datatype-json.html)
for storing `object` and `object_changes`.
- [#439](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/pull/439) /
[#12](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/issues/12) -
Support for versioning associations (has many, has one, etc.) one level deep.
- [#420](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/issues/420) - Add
`VersionConcern#where_object_changes` instance method; acts as a helper for
querying against the `object_changes` column in versions table.
- [#416](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/issues/416) - Added a
`config` option for enabling/disabling utilization of
`serialized_attributes` for `ActiveRecord`, necessary because

and will be removed in version `5.0`
- [#399](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/pull/399) - Add `:dup`
argument for options hash to `reify` which forces a new model instance.

`have_a_version_with` for easier testing.
- [#347](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/pull/347) - Autoload
`ActiveRecord` models in via a `Rails::Engine` when the gem is used with
`Rails`.
### Fixed
- [#563](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/pull/563) - Fixed a bug in
`touch_with_version` so that it will still create a version even when the
`on` option is, e.g. `[:create]`.
- [#541](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/pull/541) -
`PaperTrail.config.enabled` should be Thread Safe
- [#451](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/issues/451) - Fix `reify`
method in context of model where the base class has a default scope, and the
live instance is not scoped within that default scope.
- [#440](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/pull/440) - `versions`
association should clear/reload after a transaction rollback.
- [#438](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/issues/438) -
`ModelKlass.paper_trail_enabled_for_model?` should return `false` if
`has_paper_trail` has not been declared on the class.
- [#404](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/issues/404) /
[#428](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/issues/428) -
`model_instance.dup` does not need to be invoked when examining what the
instance looked like before changes were persisted, which avoids issues if a
3rd party has overriden the `dup` behavior. Also fixes errors occuring when
a user attempts to update the inheritance column on an STI model instance in
`ActiveRecord` 4.1.x
- [#427](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/pull/427) - Fix `reify`

Sinatra.
- [#381](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/issues/381) - Fix `irb`
warning: `can't alias context from irb_context`. `Rspec` and `Cucumber`
helpers should not be loaded by default, regardless of whether those
libraries are loaded.
- [#248](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/issues/248) - In MySQL, to
prevent truncation, generated migrations now use `longtext` instead of `text`.
- Methods handling serialized attributes should fallback to the currently set
Serializer instead of always falling back to `PaperTrail::Serializers::YAML`.
### Deprecated
- [#479](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/issues/479) - Deprecated
`originator` method, use `paper_trail_originator`.
## 3.0.9
- [#479](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/issues/479) - Deprecated
`originator` method in favor of `paper_trail_originator` Deprecation warning
informs users that the `originator` of the methods will be removed in
version `4.0`. (Backported from v4)
- Updated deprecation warnings for `Model.paper_trail_on` and
`Model.paper_trail_off` to have display correct version number the methods

`ActiveRecord` 4.
## 3.0.5
- [#401](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/issues/401) / [#406](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/issues/406) -
`PaperTrail::Version` class is not loaded via a `Rails::Engine`, even when the gem is used within Rails. This feature has
will be re-introduced in version `4.0`.
- [#398](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/pull/398) - Only require the `RSpec` helper if `RSpec::Core` is required.
## 3.0.3
*This version was yanked from RubyGems and has been replaced by version `3.0.5`, which is almost identical, but does not eager load
in the `PaperTrail::Version` class through a `Rails::Engine` when the gem is used on Rails since it was causing issues for some users.*
- [#386](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/issues/386) - Fix eager loading of `versions` association with custom class name
in `ActiveRecord` 4.1.
- [#384](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/issues/384) - Fix `VersionConcern#originator` instance method.
- [#383](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/pull/383) - Make gem compatible with `ActiveRecord::Enum` (available in `ActiveRecord` 4.1+).
- [#380](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/pull/380) / [#377](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/issues/377) -
Add `VersionConcern#where_object` instance method; acts as a helper for querying against the `object` column in versions table.
- [#373](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/pull/373) - Fix default sort order for the `versions` association in `ActiveRecord` 4.1.
- [#372](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/pull/372) - Use [Arel](https://github.com/rails/arel) for SQL construction.
- [#365](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/issues/365) - `VersionConcern#version_at` should return `nil` when receiving a timestamp
that occured after the object was destroyed.
- Expand `PaperTrail::VERSION` into a module, mimicking the form used by Rails to give it some additional modularity & versatility.
- Fixed `VersionConcern#index` instance method so that it conforms to using the primary key for ordering when possible.
## 3.0.2
- [#357](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/issues/357) - If a `Version` instance is reified and then persisted at that state,
it's timestamp attributes for update should still get `touch`ed.
- [#351](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/pull/351) / [#352](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/pull/352) -
`PaperTrail::Rails::Controller` should hook into all controller types, and should not get loaded unless `ActionController` is.
- [#346](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/pull/346) - `user_for_paper_trail` method should accommodate different types
for return values from `current_user` method.
- [#344](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/pull/344) - Gem is now tested against `MySQL` and `PostgreSQL` in addition to `SQLite`.
- [#317](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/issues/317) / [#314](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/issues/314) -
`versions` should default to ordering via the primary key if it is an integer to avoid timestamp comparison issues.
- `PaperTrail::Cleaner.clean_versions!` should group versions by `PaperTrail.timestamp_field` when deciding which ones to
keep / destroy, instead of always grouping by the `created_at` field.
- If a `Version` instance is reified and then persisted at that state, it's source version
(`model_instance#version_association_name`, usually `model_instance#version`) will get cleared since persisting it causes it to
become the live instance.
- If `destroy` actions are tracked for a versioned model, invoking `destroy` on the model will cause the corresponding version that
gets generated to be assigned as the source version (`model_instance#version_association_name`, usually `model_instance#version`).
## 3.0.1
- [#340](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/issues/340) - Prevent potential error encountered when using the `InstallGenerator`
with Rails `4.1.0.rc1`.

- [#312](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/issues/312) - Fix RSpec `with_versioning` class level helper method.
- `model_instance.without_versioning` now yields the `model_instance`, enabling syntax like this:
`model_instance.without_versioning { |obj| obj.update_attributes(:name => 'value') }`.
- Deprecated `Model.paper_trail_on` and `Model.paper_trail_off` in favor of bang versions of the methods.
Deprecation warning informs users that the non-bang versions of the methods will be removed in version `4.0`
## 3.0.0
- [#305](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/pull/305) - `PaperTrail::VERSION` should be loaded at runtime.

`PaperTrail::Serializers::YAML` and `PaperTrail::Serializers::JSON`.
- Removed deprecated `set_whodunnit` method from Rails Controller scope.
## 2.7.2
- [#228](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/issues/228) - Refactored default `user_for_paper_trail` method implementation
so that `current_user` only gets invoked if it is defined.
