repository on GitHub.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Upgrading to Rails 5.2
----------------------
If you're upgrading an existing application, it's a great idea to have good test
coverage before going in. You should also first upgrade to Rails 5.1 in case you
haven't and make sure your application still runs as expected before attempting
an update to Rails 5.2. A list of things to watch out for when upgrading is
available in the
[Upgrading Ruby on Rails](upgrading_ruby_on_rails.html#upgrading-from-rails-5-1-to-rails-5-2)
guide.
Major Features
--------------
### Active Storage
[Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/30020)
[Active Storage](https://github.com/rails/rails/tree/5-2-stable/activestorage)
facilitates uploading files to a cloud storage service like
Amazon S3, Google Cloud Storage, or Microsoft Azure Storage and attaching
those files to Active Record objects. It comes with a local disk-based service
for development and testing and supports mirroring files to subordinate
services for backups and migrations.
You can read more about Active Storage in the
[Active Storage Overview](active_storage_overview.html) guide.
### Redis Cache Store
[Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/31134)
Rails 5.2 ships with built-in Redis cache store.
You can read more about this in the
[Caching with Rails: An Overview](caching_with_rails.html#activesupport-cache-rediscachestore)
guide.
### HTTP/2 Early Hints
[Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/30744)
Rails 5.2 supports [HTTP/2 Early Hints](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8297).
To start the server with Early Hints enabled pass `--early-hints`
to `bin/rails server`.
### Credentials
[Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/30067)
Added `config/credentials.yml.enc` file to store production app secrets.
It allows saving any authentication credentials for third-party services
directly in repository encrypted with a key in the `config/master.key` file or
the `RAILS_MASTER_KEY` environment variable.
This will eventually replace `Rails.application.secrets` and the encrypted
secrets introduced in Rails 5.1.
Furthermore, Rails 5.2
[opens API underlying Credentials](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/30940),
so you can easily deal with other encrypted configurations, keys, and files.
You can read more about this in the
[Securing Rails Applications](security.html#custom-credentials)
guide.
### Content Security Policy
[Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/31162)
Rails 5.2 ships with a new DSL that allows you to configure a
[Content Security Policy](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Content-Security-Policy)
for your application. You can configure a global default policy and then
override it on a per-resource basis and even use lambdas to inject per-request
values into the header such as account subdomains in a multi-tenant application.
You can read more about this in the
[Securing Rails Applications](security.html#content-security-policy)
guide.

* Respect `SchemaDumper.ignore_tables` in rake tasks for
databases structure dump.
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/29077))

* Merging two relations representing nested joins no longer transforms
the joins of the merged relation into LEFT OUTER JOIN.
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/27063))
* Fix transactions to apply state to child transactions.
Previously, if you had a nested transaction and the outer transaction was
rolledback, the record from the inner transaction would still be marked
as persisted. It was fixed by applying the state of the parent
transaction to the child transaction when the parent transaction is
rolledback. This will correctly mark records from the inner transaction
as not persisted.
([Commit](https://github.com/rails/rails/commit/0237da287eb4c507d10a0c6d94150093acc52b03))

* Change sqlite3 boolean serialization to use 1 and 0.
SQLite natively recognizes 1 and 0 as true and false, but does not natively
recognize 't' and 'f' as was previously serialized.
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/29699))
* Values constructed using multi-parameter assignment will now use the
post-type-cast value for rendering in single-field form inputs.
([Commit](https://github.com/rails/rails/commit/1519e976b224871c7f7dd476351930d5d0d7faf6))
* `ApplicationRecord` is no longer generated when generating models. If you
need to generate it, it can be created with `rails g application_record`.
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/29916))
* `Relation#or` now accepts two relations who have different values for
`references` only, as `references` can be implicitly called by `where`.
([Commit](https://github.com/rails/rails/commit/ea6139101ccaf8be03b536b1293a9f36bc12f2f7))
* When using `Relation#or`, extract the common conditions and
put them before the OR condition.
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/29950))

an array.
([Commit](https://github.com/rails/rails/commit/9cf7e3494f5bd34f1382c1ff4ea3d811a4972ae2))
* PostgreSQL `tsrange` now preserves subsecond precision.
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/30725))
* Raises when calling `lock!` in a dirty record.
([Commit](https://github.com/rails/rails/commit/63cf15877bae859ff7b4ebaf05186f3ca79c1863))
* Fixed a bug where column orders for an index weren't written to
`db/schema.rb` when using the sqlite adapter.
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/30970))
* Fix `bin/rails db:migrate` with specified `VERSION`.
`bin/rails db:migrate` with empty VERSION behaves as without `VERSION`.
Check a format of `VERSION`: Allow a migration version number
or name of a migration file. Raise error if format of `VERSION` is invalid.
Raise error if target migration doesn't exist.
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/30714))
* Add new error class `StatementTimeout` which will be raised
when statement timeout exceeded.
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/31129))
* `update_all` will now pass its values to `Type#cast` before passing them to
`Type#serialize`. This means that `update_all(foo: 'true')` will properly
persist a boolean.
([Commit](https://github.com/rails/rails/commit/68fe6b08ee72cc47263e0d2c9ff07f75c4b42761))
* Require raw SQL fragments to be explicitly marked when used in
relation query methods.
([Commit](https://github.com/rails/rails/commit/a1ee43d2170dd6adf5a9f390df2b1dde45018a48),

in Active Record and its use in Action Pack's fragment caching.
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/29092))

([Commit](https://github.com/rails/rails/commit/01ae39660243bc5f0a986e20f9c9bff312b1b5f8))
* `IO#to_json` now returns the `to_s` representation, rather than
attempting to convert to an array. This fixes a bug where `IO#to_json`
would raise an `IOError` when called on an unreadable object.
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/30953))
* Add same method signature for `Time#prev_day` and `Time#next_day`
in accordance with `Date#prev_day`, `Date#next_day`.

to make it not leak length information even for variable length string.
Renamed old `ActiveSupport::SecurityUtils.secure_compare` to
`fixed_length_secure_compare`, and started raising `ArgumentError` in
case of length mismatch of passed strings.
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/24510))
* Use SHA-1 to generate non-sensitive digests, such as the ETag header.
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/31289),

regardless of `from:` and `to:` argument combinations.
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/31011))
* Add missing instrumentation for `read_multi`
in `ActiveSupport::Cache::Store`.
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/30268))
* Support hash as first argument in `assert_difference`.
This allows to specify multiple numeric differences in the same assertion.
([Pull Request](https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/31600))
