rails--rails/actioncable/CHANGELOG.md

• ActionCable.Connection#getState now references the configurable ActionCable.adapters.WebSocket property rather than the WebSocket global variable, matching the behavior of ActionCable.Connection#open.

• The ActionCable javascript package has been converted from CoffeeScript to ES2015, and we now publish the source code in the npm distribution.

  This allows ActionCable users to depend on the javascript source code rather than the compiled code, which can produce smaller javascript bundles.

  This change includes some breaking changes to optional parts of the ActionCable javascript API:

  • Configuration of the WebSocket adapter and logger adapter have been moved from properties of ActionCable to properties of ActionCable.adapters. If you are currently configuring these adapters you will need to make these changes when upgrading:

    -    ActionCable.WebSocket = MyWebSocket
    +    ActionCable.adapters.WebSocket = MyWebSocket
    

    -    ActionCable.logger = myLogger
    +    ActionCable.adapters.logger = myLogger
    

  • The ActionCable.startDebugging() and ActionCable.stopDebugging() methods have been removed and replaced with the property ActionCable.logger.enabled. If you are currently using these methods you will need to make these changes when upgrading:

    -    ActionCable.startDebugging()
    +    ActionCable.logger.enabled = true
    

    -    ActionCable.stopDebugging()
    +    ActionCable.logger.enabled = false

• Add id option to redis adapter so now you can distinguish ActionCable's redis connections among others. Also, you can set custom id in options.

  Before:

  $ redis-cli client list
  id=669 addr=127.0.0.1:46442 fd=8 name= age=18 ...
  

  After:

  $ redis-cli client list
  id=673 addr=127.0.0.1:46516 fd=8 name=ActionCable-PID-19413 age=2 ...
