6.6.1 - 2022-04-14

Fixed

  • Fixes deprecation warning in redis 4.6+ (@ixti)

6.6.0 - 2022-01-29

Added

  • Ability to have access to the request object instead of only env (still can access env with request.env) when customizing throttle and blocklist responses with new methods Rack::Attack.blocklisted_responder= and Rack::Attack.throttled_responder= which yield the request to your lambda. (@NikolayRys)

Deprecated

  • Rack::Attack.blocklisted_response=
  • Rack::Attack.throttled_response=

6.5.0 - 2021-02-07

Added

  • Added ability to normalize throttle discriminator by setting Rack::Attack.throttle_discriminator_normalizer (@fatkodima)

    Example:

    Rack::Attack.throttle_discriminator_normalizer = ->(discriminator) { ... }

    or disable default normalization with:

    Rack::Attack.throttle_discriminator_normalizer = nil

Removed

  • Dropped support for ruby v2.4
  • Dropped support for rails v5.1

6.4.0 - 2021-01-23

Added

  • Added support for ruby v3.0

Removed

  • Dropped support for ruby v2.3

6.3.1 - 2020-05-21

Fixed

  • Warning when using ActiveSupport::Cache::RedisCacheStore as a cache store with rails 5.2.4.3 (#482) (@rofreg)

6.3.0 - 2020-04-26

Added

  • Rack::Attack.reset! to reset state (#436) (@fatkodima)
  • Rack::Attack.throttled_response_retry_after_header= setting that enables a Retry-After response header when client is throttled (#440) (@fatkodima)

Changed

  • No longer swallow Redis non-connection errors if Redis is configured as cache store (#450) (@fatkodima)

Fixed

  • Rack::Attack.clear_configuration also clears blocklisted_response and throttled_response back to defaults

6.2.2 - 2019-12-18

Fixed

  • Fixed occasional Redis::FutureNotReady error (#445) (@fatkodima)

6.2.1 - 2019-10-30

Fixed

  • Remove unintended side-effects on Rails app initialization order. It was potentially affecting the order of config/initializers/* in respect to gems initializers (#457)

6.2.0 - 2019-10-12

Added

  • Failsafe on Redis error replies in RedisCacheStoreProxy (#421) (@cristiangreco)
  • Rack::Attack middleware is now auto added for Rails 5.1+ apps to simplify gem setup (#431) (@fatkodima)
  • You can disable Rack::Attack with Rack::Attack.enabled = false (#431) (@fatkodima)

6.1.0 - 2019-07-11

Added

  • Provide throttle discriminator in the env throttle_data

6.0.0 - 2019-04-17

Added

  • #blocklist and #safelist name argument (the first one) is now optional.
  • Added support to subscribe only to specific event types via ActiveSupport::Notifications, e.g. subscribe to the throttle.rack_attack or the blocklist.rack_attack event.

Changed

  • Changed ActiveSupport::Notifications event naming to comply with the recommended format.
  • Changed ActiveSupport::Notifications event so that the 5th yielded argument to the #subscribe method is now a Hash instead of a Rack::Attack::Request, to comply with ActiveSupports spec. The original request object is still accessible, being the value of the hash's :request key.

Deprecated

  • Subscriptions via ActiveSupport::Notifications to the "rack.attack" event will continue to work (receive event notifications), but it is going to be removed in a future version. Replace the event name with /rack_attack/ to continue to be subscribed to all events, or "throttle.rack_attack" e.g. for specific type of events only.

Removed

  • Removed support for ruby 2.2.
  • Removed support for obsolete memcache-client as a cache store.
  • Removed deprecated methods #blacklist and #whitelist (use #blocklist and #safelist instead).

Fixed

  • Fix unexpected error when using redis 3 and any store which is not proxied

Changed

  • Provide better information in MisconfiguredStoreError exception message to aid end-user debugging

Fixed

Added

  • Support "plain" Redis as a cache store backend (#280). Thanks @bfad and @ryandv.
  • When overwriting Rack::Attack.throttled_response you can now access the exact epoch integer that was used for caching so your custom code is less prone to race conditions (#282). Thanks @doliveirakn.

Dependency changes

  • Explictly declare ancient rack 0.x series as incompatible in gemspec

5.3.2 - 2018-06-25

Fixed

5.3.1 - 2018-06-20

If you reference rack.attack.match_type, note that it will have values like :safelist/:blocklist.
  • Remove test coverage for unsupported ruby dependencies: ruby 2.0, activesupport 3.2/4.0, and dalli 1.

4.4.1 - 2016-02-17
