* Deprecate `partial_writes` in favor of `partial_inserts` and `partial_updates`.
This allows to have a different behavior on update and create.
*Jean Boussier*
* Fix compatibility with `psych >= 4`.
Starting in Psych 4.0.0 `YAML.load` behaves like `YAML.safe_load`. To preserve compatibility
Active Record's schema cache loader and `YAMLColumn` now uses `YAML.unsafe_load` if available.
*Jean Boussier*
* `ActiveRecord::Base.logger` is now a `class_attribute`.
This means it can no longer be accessed directly through `@@logger`, and that setting `logger =`
on a subclass won't change the parent's logger.
*Jean Boussier*
* Add `.asc.nulls_first` for all databases. Unfortunately MySQL still doesn't like `nulls_last`.
*Keenan Brock*
* Improve performance of `one?` and `many?` by limiting the generated count query to 2 results.
*Gonzalo Riestra*
* Don't check type when using `if_not_exists` on `add_column`.
Previously, if a migration called `add_column` with the `if_not_exists` option set to true
the `column_exists?` check would look for a column with the same name and type as the migration.
Recently it was discovered that the type passed to the migration is not always the same type
as the column after migration. For example a column set to `:mediumblob` in the migration will
be casted to `binary` when calling `column.type`. Since there is no straightforward way to cast
the type to the database type without running the migration, we opted to drop the type check from
`add_column`. This means that migrations adding a duplicate column with a different type will no
longer raise an error.
*Eileen M. Uchitelle*
* Log a warning message when running SQLite in production
Using SQLite in production ENV is generally discouraged. SQLite is also the default adapter
in a new Rails application.
For the above reasons log a warning message when running SQLite in production.
The warning can be disabled by setting `config.active_record.sqlite3_production_warning=false`.
*Jacopo Beschi*
* Add option to disable joins for `has_one` associations.
In a multiple database application, associations can't join across
databases. When set, this option instructs Rails to generate 2 or
more queries rather than generating joins for `has_one` associations.
Set the option on a has one through association:
```ruby
class Person
belongs_to :dog
has_one :veterinarian, through: :dog, disable_joins: true
end
```
Then instead of generating join SQL, two queries are used for `@person.veterinarian`:
```
SELECT "dogs"."id" FROM "dogs" WHERE "dogs"."person_id" = ? [["person_id", 1]]
SELECT "veterinarians".* FROM "veterinarians" WHERE "veterinarians"."dog_id" = ? [["dog_id", 1]]
```
*Sarah Vessels*, *Eileen M. Uchitelle*
* `Arel::Visitors::Dot` now renders a complete set of properties when visiting
`Arel::Nodes::SelectCore`, `SelectStatement`, `InsertStatement`, `UpdateStatement`, and
`DeleteStatement`, which fixes #42026. Previously, some properties were omitted.
*Mike Dalessio*
* `Arel::Visitors::Dot` now supports `Arel::Nodes::Bin`, `Case`, `CurrentRow`, `Distinct`,
`DistinctOn`, `Else`, `Except`, `InfixOperation`, `Intersect`, `Lock`, `NotRegexp`, `Quoted`,
`Regexp`, `UnaryOperation`, `Union`, `UnionAll`, `When`, and `With`. Previously, these node
types caused an exception to be raised by `Arel::Visitors::Dot#accept`.
*Mike Dalessio*
* Optimize `remove_columns` to use a single SQL statement.
```ruby
remove_columns :my_table, :col_one, :col_two
```
Now results in the following SQL:
```sql
ALTER TABLE "my_table" DROP COLUMN "col_one", DROP COLUMN "col_two"
```
*Jon Dufresne*
* Ensure `has_one` autosave association callbacks get called once.
Change the `has_one` autosave callback to be non cyclic as well.
By doing this the autosave callback are made more consistent for
all 3 cases: `has_many`, `has_one`, and `belongs_to`.
*Petrik de Heus*
* Add option to disable joins for associations.
In a multiple database application, associations can't join across
databases. When set, this option instructs Rails to generate 2 or
more queries rather than generating joins for associations.
Set the option on a has many through association:
```ruby
class Dog
has_many :treats, through: :humans, disable_joins: true
has_many :humans
end
```
Then instead of generating join SQL, two queries are used for `@dog.treats`:
```
SELECT "humans"."id" FROM "humans" WHERE "humans"."dog_id" = ? [["dog_id", 1]]
SELECT "treats".* FROM "treats" WHERE "treats"."human_id" IN (?, ?, ?) [["human_id", 1], ["human_id", 2], ["human_id", 3]]
```
*Eileen M. Uchitelle*, *Aaron Patterson*, *Lee Quarella*
* Add setting for enumerating column names in SELECT statements.
Adding a column to a PostgreSQL database, for example, while the application is running can
change the result of wildcard `SELECT *` queries, which invalidates the result
of cached prepared statements and raises a `PreparedStatementCacheExpired` error.
When enabled, Active Record will avoid wildcards and always include column names
in `SELECT` queries, which will return consistent results and avoid prepared
statement errors.
Before:
```ruby
Book.limit(5)
# SELECT * FROM books LIMIT 5
```
After:
```ruby
# config/application.rb
module MyApp
class Application < Rails::Application
config.active_record.enumerate_columns_in_select_statements = true
end
end
# or, configure per-model
class Book < ApplicationRecord
self.enumerate_columns_in_select_statements = true
end
```
```ruby
Book.limit(5)
# SELECT id, author_id, name, format, status, language, etc FROM books LIMIT 5
```
*Matt Duszynski*
* Allow passing SQL as `on_duplicate` value to `#upsert_all` to make it possible to use raw SQL to update columns on conflict:
```ruby
Book.upsert_all(
[{ id: 1, status: 1 }, { id: 2, status: 1 }],
on_duplicate: Arel.sql("status = GREATEST(books.status, EXCLUDED.status)")
)
```
*Vladimir Dementyev*
* Allow passing SQL as `returning` statement to `#upsert_all`:
```ruby
Article.insert_all(
[
{ title: "Article 1", slug: "article-1", published: false },
{ title: "Article 2", slug: "article-2", published: false }
],
returning: Arel.sql("id, (xmax = '0') as inserted, name as new_name")
)
```
*Vladimir Dementyev*
* Deprecate `legacy_connection_handling`.
*Eileen M. Uchitelle*
* Add attribute encryption support.
Encrypted attributes are declared at the model level. These
are regular Active Record attributes backed by a column with
the same name. The system will transparently encrypt these
attributes before saving them into the database and will
decrypt them when retrieving their values.
```ruby
class Person < ApplicationRecord
encrypts :name
encrypts :email_address, deterministic: true
end
```
You can learn more in the [Active Record Encryption
guide](https://edgeguides.rubyonrails.org/active_record_encryption.html).
*Jorge Manrubia*
* Changed Arel predications `contains` and `overlaps` to use
`quoted_node` so that PostgreSQL arrays are quoted properly.
*Bradley Priest*
* Add mode argument to record level `strict_loading!`
This argument can be used when enabling strict loading for a single record
to specify that we only want to raise on n plus one queries.
```ruby
developer.strict_loading!(mode: :n_plus_one_only)
developer.projects.to_a # Does not raise
developer.projects.first.client # Raises StrictLoadingViolationError
```
Previously, enabling strict loading would cause any lazily loaded
association to raise an error. Using `n_plus_one_only` mode allows us to
lazily load belongs_to, has_many, and other associations that are fetched
through a single query.
*Dinah Shi*
* Fix Float::INFINITY assignment to datetime column with postgresql adapter
Before:
```ruby
# With this config
ActiveRecord::Base.time_zone_aware_attributes = true
# and the following schema:
create_table "postgresql_infinities" do |t|
t.datetime "datetime"
end
# This test fails
record = PostgresqlInfinity.create!(datetime: Float::INFINITY)
assert_equal Float::INFINITY, record.datetime # record.datetime gets nil
```
After this commit, `record.datetime` gets `Float::INFINITY` as expected.
*Shunichi Ikegami*
* Type cast enum values by the original attribute type.
The notable thing about this change is that unknown labels will no longer match 0 on MySQL.
```ruby
class Book < ActiveRecord::Base
enum :status, { proposed: 0, written: 1, published: 2 }
end
```
Before:
```ruby
# SELECT `books`.* FROM `books` WHERE `books`.`status` = 'prohibited' LIMIT 1
Book.find_by(status: :prohibited)
# => #<Book id: 1, status: "proposed", ...> (for mysql2 adapter)
# => ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid: PG::InvalidTextRepresentation: ERROR: invalid input syntax for type integer: "prohibited" (for postgresql adapter)
# => nil (for sqlite3 adapter)
```
After:
```ruby
# SELECT `books`.* FROM `books` WHERE `books`.`status` IS NULL LIMIT 1
Book.find_by(status: :prohibited)
# => nil (for all adapters)
```
*Ryuta Kamizono*
* Fixtures for `has_many :through` associations now load timestamps on join tables
Given this fixture:
```yml
### monkeys.yml
george:
name: George the Monkey
fruits: apple
### fruits.yml
apple:
name: apple
```
If the join table (`fruit_monkeys`) contains `created_at` or `updated_at` columns,
these will now be populated when loading the fixture. Previously, fixture loading
would crash if these columns were required, and leave them as null otherwise.
*Alex Ghiculescu*
* Allow applications to configure the thread pool for async queries
Some applications may want one thread pool per database whereas others want to use
a single global thread pool for all queries. By default, Rails will set `async_query_executor`
to `nil` which will not initialize any executor. If `load_async` is called and no executor
has been configured, the query will be executed in the foreground.
To create one thread pool for all database connections to use applications can set
`config.active_record.async_query_executor` to `:global_thread_pool` and optionally define
`config.active_record.global_executor_concurrency`. This defaults to 4. For applications that want
to have a thread pool for each database connection, `config.active_record.async_query_executor` can
be set to `:multi_thread_pool`. The configuration for each thread pool is set in the database
configuration.
*Eileen M. Uchitelle*
* Allow new syntax for `enum` to avoid leading `_` from reserved options.
Before:
```ruby
class Book < ActiveRecord::Base
enum status: [ :proposed, :written ], _prefix: true, _scopes: false
enum cover: [ :hard, :soft ], _suffix: true, _default: :hard
end
```
After:
```ruby
class Book < ActiveRecord::Base
enum :status, [ :proposed, :written ], prefix: true, scopes: false
enum :cover, [ :hard, :soft ], suffix: true, default: :hard
end
```
*Ryuta Kamizono*
* Add `ActiveRecord::Relation#load_async`.
This method schedules the query to be performed asynchronously from a thread pool.
If the result is accessed before a background thread had the opportunity to perform
the query, it will be performed in the foreground.
This is useful for queries that can be performed long enough before their result will be
needed, or for controllers which need to perform several independent queries.
```ruby
def index
@categories = Category.some_complex_scope.load_async
@posts = Post.some_complex_scope.load_async
end
```
*Jean Boussier*
* Implemented `ActiveRecord::Relation#excluding` method.
This method excludes the specified record (or collection of records) from
the resulting relation:
```ruby
Post.excluding(post)
Post.excluding(post_one, post_two)
```
Also works on associations:
```ruby
post.comments.excluding(comment)
post.comments.excluding(comment_one, comment_two)
```
This is short-hand for `Post.where.not(id: post.id)` (for a single record)
and `Post.where.not(id: [post_one.id, post_two.id])` (for a collection).
*Glen Crawford*
* Skip optimised #exist? query when #include? is called on a relation
with a having clause
Relations that have aliased select values AND a having clause that
references an aliased select value would generate an error when
#include? was called, due to an optimisation that would generate
call #exists? on the relation instead, which effectively alters
the select values of the query (and thus removes the aliased select
values), but leaves the having clause intact. Because the having
clause is then referencing an aliased column that is no longer
present in the simplified query, an ActiveRecord::InvalidStatement
error was raised.
A sample query affected by this problem:
```ruby
Author.select('COUNT(*) as total_posts', 'authors.*')
.joins(:posts)
.group(:id)
.having('total_posts > 2')
.include?(Author.first)
```
This change adds an addition check to the condition that skips the
simplified #exists? query, which simply checks for the presence of
a having clause.
Fixes #41417
*Michael Smart*
* Increment postgres prepared statement counter before making a prepared statement, so if the statement is aborted
without Rails knowledge (e.g., if app gets killed during long-running query or due to Rack::Timeout), app won't end
up in perpetual crash state for being inconsistent with Postgres.
*wbharding*, *Martin Tepper*
* Add ability to apply `scoping` to `all_queries`.
Some applications may want to use the `scoping` method but previously it only
worked on certain types of queries. This change allows the `scoping` method to apply
to all queries for a model in a block.
```ruby
Post.where(blog_id: post.blog_id).scoping(all_queries: true) do
post.update(title: "a post title") # adds `posts.blog_id = 1` to the query
end
```
*Eileen M. Uchitelle*
* `ActiveRecord::Calculations.calculate` called with `:average`
(aliased as `ActiveRecord::Calculations.average`) will now use column based
type casting. This means that floating-point number columns will now be
aggregated as `Float` and decimal columns will be aggregated as `BigDecimal`.
Integers are handled as a special case returning `BigDecimal` always
(this was the case before already).
```ruby
# With the following schema:
create_table "measurements" do |t|
t.float "temperature"
end
# Before:
Measurement.average(:temperature).class
# => BigDecimal
# After:
Measurement.average(:temperature).class
# => Float
```
Before this change, Rails just called `to_d` on average aggregates from the
database adapter. This is not the case anymore. If you relied on that kind
of magic, you now need to register your own `ActiveRecord::Type`
(see `ActiveRecord::Attributes::ClassMethods` for documentation).
*Josua Schmid*
* PostgreSQL: introduce `ActiveRecord::ConnectionAdapters::PostgreSQLAdapter.datetime_type`
This setting controls what native type Active Record should use when you call `datetime` in
a migration or schema. It takes a symbol which must correspond to one of the configured
`NATIVE_DATABASE_TYPES`. The default is `:timestamp`, meaning `t.datetime` in a migration
will create a "timestamp without time zone" column. To use "timestamp with time zone",
change this to `:timestamptz` in an initializer.
You should run `bin/rails db:migrate` to rebuild your schema.rb if you change this.
*Alex Ghiculescu*
* PostgreSQL: handle `timestamp with time zone` columns correctly in `schema.rb`.
Previously they dumped as `t.datetime :column_name`, now they dump as `t.timestamptz :column_name`,
and are created as `timestamptz` columns when the schema is loaded.
*Alex Ghiculescu*
* Removing trailing whitespace when matching columns in
`ActiveRecord::Sanitization.disallow_raw_sql!`.
*Gannon McGibbon*, *Adrian Hirt*
* Expose a way for applications to set a `primary_abstract_class`
Multiple database applications that use a primary abstract class that is not
named `ApplicationRecord` can now set a specific class to be the `primary_abstract_class`.
```ruby
class PrimaryApplicationRecord
self.primary_abstract_class
end
```
When an application boots it automatically connects to the primary or first database in the
database configuration file. In a multiple database application that then call `connects_to`
needs to know that the default connection is the same as the `ApplicationRecord` connection.
However, some applications have a differently named `ApplicationRecord`. This prevents Active
Record from opening duplicate connections to the same database.
*Eileen M. Uchitelle*, *John Crepezzi*
* Support hash config for `structure_dump_flags` and `structure_load_flags` flags
Now that Active Record supports multiple databases configuration
we need a way to pass specific flags for dump/load databases since
the options are not the same for different adapters.
We can use in the original way:
```ruby
ActiveRecord::Tasks::DatabaseTasks.structure_dump_flags = ['--no-defaults', '--skip-add-drop-table']
#or
ActiveRecord::Tasks::DatabaseTasks.structure_dump_flags = '--no-defaults --skip-add-drop-table'
```
And also use it passing a hash, with one or more keys, where the key
is the adapter
```ruby
ActiveRecord::Tasks::DatabaseTasks.structure_dump_flags = {
mysql2: ['--no-defaults', '--skip-add-drop-table'],
postgres: '--no-tablespaces'
}
```
*Gustavo Gonzalez*
* Connection specification now passes the "url" key as a configuration for the
adapter if the "url" protocol is "jdbc", "http", or "https". Previously only
urls with the "jdbc" prefix were passed to the Active Record Adapter, others
are assumed to be adapter specification urls.
Fixes #41137.
*Jonathan Bracy*
* Allow to opt-out of `strict_loading` mode on a per-record base.
This is useful when strict loading is enabled application wide or on a
model level.
```ruby
class User < ApplicationRecord
has_many :bookmarks
has_many :articles, strict_loading: true
end
user = User.first
user.articles # => ActiveRecord::StrictLoadingViolationError
user.bookmarks # => #<ActiveRecord::Associations::CollectionProxy>
user.strict_loading!(true) # => true
user.bookmarks # => ActiveRecord::StrictLoadingViolationError
user.strict_loading!(false) # => false
user.bookmarks # => #<ActiveRecord::Associations::CollectionProxy>
user.articles.strict_loading!(false) # => #<ActiveRecord::Associations::CollectionProxy>
```
*Ayrton De Craene*
* Add `FinderMethods#sole` and `#find_sole_by` to find and assert the
presence of exactly one record.
Used when you need a single row, but also want to assert that there aren't
multiple rows matching the condition; especially for when database
constraints aren't enough or are impractical.
```ruby
Product.where(["price = %?", price]).sole
# => ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound (if no Product with given price)
# => #<Product ...> (if one Product with given price)
# => ActiveRecord::SoleRecordExceeded (if more than one Product with given price)
user.api_keys.find_sole_by(key: key)
# as above
```
*Asherah Connor*
* Makes `ActiveRecord::AttributeMethods::Query` respect the getter overrides defined in the model.
Before:
```ruby
class User
def admin
false # Overriding the getter to always return false
end
end
user = User.first
user.update(admin: true)
user.admin # false (as expected, due to the getter overwrite)
user.admin? # true (not expected, returned the DB column value)
```
After this commit, `user.admin?` above returns false, as expected.
Fixes #40771.
*Felipe*
* Allow delegated_type to be specified primary_key and foreign_key.
Since delegated_type assumes that the foreign_key ends with `_id`,
`singular_id` defined by it does not work when the foreign_key does
not end with `id`. This change fixes it by taking into account
`primary_key` and `foreign_key` in the options.
*Ryota Egusa*
* Expose an `invert_where` method that will invert all scope conditions.
```ruby
class User
scope :active, -> { where(accepted: true, locked: false) }
end
User.active
# ... WHERE `accepted` = 1 AND `locked` = 0
User.active.invert_where
# ... WHERE NOT (`accepted` = 1 AND `locked` = 0)
```
*Kevin Deisz*
* Restore possibility of passing `false` to :polymorphic option of `belongs_to`.
Previously, passing `false` would trigger the option validation logic
to throw an error saying :polymorphic would not be a valid option.
*glaszig*
* Remove deprecated `database` kwarg from `connected_to`.
*Eileen M. Uchitelle*, *John Crepezzi*
* Allow adding nonnamed expression indexes to be revertible.
Fixes #40732.
Previously, the following code would raise an error, when executed while rolling back,
and the index name should be specified explicitly. Now, the index name is inferred
automatically.
```ruby
add_index(:items, "to_tsvector('english', description)")
```
*fatkodima*
* Only warn about negative enums if a positive form that would cause conflicts exists.
Fixes #39065.
*Alex Ghiculescu*
* Add option to run `default_scope` on all queries.
Previously, a `default_scope` would only run on select or insert queries. In some cases, like non-Rails tenant sharding solutions, it may be desirable to run `default_scope` on all queries in order to ensure queries are including a foreign key for the shard (i.e. `blog_id`).
Now applications can add an option to run on all queries including select, insert, delete, and update by adding an `all_queries` option to the default scope definition.
```ruby
class Article < ApplicationRecord
default_scope -> { where(blog_id: Current.blog.id) }, all_queries: true
end
```
*Eileen M. Uchitelle*
* Add `where.associated` to check for the presence of an association.
```ruby
# Before:
account.users.joins(:contact).where.not(contact_id: nil)
# After:
account.users.where.associated(:contact)
```
Also mirrors `where.missing`.
*Kasper Timm Hansen*
* Allow constructors (`build_association` and `create_association`) on
`has_one :through` associations.
*Santiago Perez Perret*
