rails/railties/CHANGELOG.md

• Rails console now indicates application name and the current Rails environment:

  my-app(dev)> # for RAILS_ENV=development
  my-app(test)> # for RAILS_ENV=test
  my-app(prod)> # for RAILS_ENV=production
  my-app(my_env)> # for RAILS_ENV=my_env
  

  The application name is derived from the application's module name from config/application.rb. For example, MyApp will displayed as my-app in the prompt.

  Additionally, the environment name will be colorized when the environment is development (green), test (green), or production (red), if your terminal supports it.

• Ensure autoload_paths, autoload_once_paths, eager_load_paths, and load_paths only have directories when initialized from engine defaults. Previously, files under the app directory could end up there too.

  Takumasa Ochi

• Prevent unnecessary application reloads in development.

  Previously, some files outside autoload paths triggered unnecessary reloads. With this fix, application reloads according to Rails.autoloaders.main.dirs, thereby preventing unnecessary reloads.

  Takumasa Ochi

• Use oven-sh/setup-bun in GitHub CI when generating an app with Bun.

  TangRufus

• Disable pidfile generation in the production environment.

  Hans Schnedlitz

• Set config.action_view.annotate_rendered_view_with_filenames to true in the development environment.

  Adrian Marin

• Support the BACKTRACE environment variable to turn off backtrace cleaning.

  Useful for debugging framework code:

  BACKTRACE=1 bin/rails server
  

  Alex Ghiculescu

• Raise ArgumentError when reading config.x.something with arguments:

  config.x.this_works.this_raises true # raises ArgumentError
  

  Sean Doyle

• Add default PWA files for manifest and service-worker that are served from app/views/pwa and can be dynamically rendered through ERB. Mount these files explicitly at the root with default routes in the generated routes file.

  DHH

• Updated system tests to now use headless Chrome by default for the new applications.

  DHH

• Add GitHub CI files for Dependabot, Brakeman, RuboCop, and running tests by default. Can be skipped with --skip-ci.

  DHH

• Add Brakeman by default for static analysis of security vulnerabilities. Allow skipping with --skip-brakeman option.

  vipulnsward

• Add RuboCop with rules from rubocop-rails-omakase by default. Skip with --skip-rubocop.

  DHH and zzak

• Use bin/rails runner --skip-executor to not wrap the runner script with an Executor.

  Ben Sheldon

• Fix isolated engines to take ActiveRecord::Base.table_name_prefix into consideration. This will allow for engine defined models, such as inside Active Storage, to respect Active Record table name prefix configuration.

  Chedli Bourguiba

• Fix running db:system:change when the app has no Dockerfile.

  Hartley McGuire

• In Action Mailer previews, list inline attachments separately from normal attachments. For example, attachments that were previously listed like

  Attachments: logo.png file1.pdf file2.pdf

  will now be listed like

  Attachments: file1.pdf file2.pdf (Inline: logo.png)

  Christian Schmidt and Jonathan Hefner

• In mailer preview, only show SMTP-To if it differs from the union of To, Cc and Bcc.

  Christian Schmidt

• Enable YJIT by default on new applications running Ruby 3.3+.

  Adds a config/initializers/enable_yjit.rb initializer that enables YJIT when running on Ruby 3.3+.

  Jean Boussier

• In Action Mailer previews, show date from message Date header if present.

  Sampat Badhe

• Exit with non-zero status when the migration generator fails.

  Katsuhiko YOSHIDA

• Use numeric UID and GID in Dockerfile template

  The Dockerfile generated by rails new sets the default user and group by name instead of UID:GID. This can cause the following error in Kubernetes:

  container has runAsNonRoot and image has non-numeric user (rails), cannot verify user is non-root
  

  This change sets default user and group by their numeric values.

  Ivan Fedotov

• Disallow invalid values for rails new options.

  The --database, --asset-pipeline, --css, and --javascript options for rails new take different arguments. This change validates them.

  Tony Drake, Akhil G Krishnan, Petrik de Heus

• Conditionally print $stdout when invoking run_generator.

  In an effort to improve the developer experience when debugging generator tests, we add the ability to conditionally print $stdout instead of capturing it.

  This allows for calls to binding.irb and puts work as expected.

  RAILS_LOG_TO_STDOUT=true ./bin/test test/generators/actions_test.rb
  

  Steve Polito

• Remove the option config.public_file_server.enabled from the generators for all environments, as the value is the same in all environments.
