  The reverted behavior broke the case where the #accepts_nested_attributes_for was defined in a concern and
  where overridden in the class that included the concern.

7.1.0.rc1

Active Support

• Add a new public API for broadcasting logs

  This feature existed for a while but was until now a private API.
  Broadcasting log allows to send log message to difference sinks (STDOUT, a file ...) and
  is used by default in the development environment to write logs both on STDOUT and in the
  "development.log" file.

  Basic usage:

  stdout_logger = Logger.new(STDOUT)
  file_logger = Logger.new("development.log")
  broadcast = ActiveSupport::BroadcastLogger.new(stdout_logger, file_logger)
  
  broadcast.info("Hello!") # The "Hello!" message is written on STDOUT and in the log file.

  Adding other sink(s) to the broadcast:

  broadcast = ActiveSupport::BroadcastLogger.new
  broadcast.broadcast_to(Logger.new(STDERR))

  Remove a sink from the broadcast:

  stdout_logger = Logger.new(STDOUT)
  broadcast = ActiveSupport::BroadcastLogger.new(stdout_logger)
  
  broadcast.stop_broadcasting_to(stdout_logger)

  Rafael Mendonça França

Active Record

• Better naming for unique constraints support.

  Naming unique keys leads to misunderstanding it's a short-hand of unique indexes.
  Just naming it unique constraints is not misleading.

  In Rails 7.1.0.beta1 or before:

  add_unique_key :sections, [:position], deferrable: :deferred, name: "unique_section_position"
  remove_unique_key :sections, name: "unique_section_position"

  Now:

  add_unique_constraint :sections, [:position], deferrable: :deferred, name: "unique_section_position"
  remove_unique_constraint :sections, name: "unique_section_position"

  Ryuta Kamizono

• Fix duplicate quoting for check constraint expressions in schema dump when using MySQL

  A check constraint with an expression, that already contains quotes, lead to an invalid schema
  dump with the mysql2 adapter.

  Fixes #42424.

  Felix Tscheulin

• Performance tune the SQLite3 adapter connection configuration

  For Rails applications, the Write-Ahead-Log in normal syncing mode with a capped journal size, a healthy shared memory buffer and a shared cache will perform, on average, 2× better.

  Stephen Margheim

• Allow SQLite3 busy_handler to be configured with simple max number of retries

  Retrying busy connections without delay is a preferred practice for performance-sensitive applications. Add support for a database.yml retries integer, which is used in a simple busy_handler function to retry busy connections without exponential backoff up to the max number of retries.

  Stephen Margheim

• The SQLite3 adapter now supports supports_insert_returning?

  Implementing the full supports_insert_returning? contract means the SQLite3 adapter supports auto-populated columns (#48241) as well as custom primary keys.

  Stephen Margheim

• Ensure the SQLite3 adapter handles default functions with the || concatenation operator

  Previously, this default function would produce the static string "'Ruby ' || 'on ' || 'Rails'".
  Now, the adapter will appropriately receive and use "Ruby on Rails".

  change_column_default "test_models", "ruby_on_rails", -> { "('Ruby ' || 'on ' || 'Rails')" }

  Stephen Margheim

• Dump PostgreSQL schemas as part of the schema dump.

    render formats: :rss, partial: article
  
    assert_equal "Hello, world", rendered.rss.items.last.title
  end

  By default, register parsers for :html and :json.

  Deserializes enqueued_at as a Time instead of ISO8601 String.

  Ben Sheldon

• Clarify the backoff strategy for the recommended :wait option when retrying jobs

  wait: :exponentially_longer is waiting polynomially longer, so it is now recommended to use wait: :polynomially_longer to keep the same behavior.

7.1.0.beta1

Active Support

• Add drb, mutex_m and base64 that are bundled gem candidates for Ruby 3.4

  Yasuo Honda

• When using cache format version >= 7.1 or a custom serializer, expired and
  version-mismatched cache entries can now be detected without deserializing
  their values.

  Jonathan Hefner

• Make all cache stores return a boolean for #delete

  Previously the RedisCacheStore#delete would return 1 if the entry
  exists and 0 otherwise. Now it returns true if the entry exists and false
  otherwise, just like the other stores.

  The FileStore would return nil if the entry doesn't exists and returns
  false now as well.

  Petrik de Heus

• Active Support cache stores now support replacing the default compressor via
  a :compressor option. The specified compressor must respond to deflate
  and inflate. For example:

  module MyCompressor
    def self.deflate(string)
      # compression logic...
    end
  
    def self.inflate(compressed)
      # decompression logic...
    end
  end
  
  config.cache_store = :redis_cache_store, { compressor: MyCompressor }

  Jonathan Hefner

• Active Support cache stores now support a :serializer option. Similar to
  the :coder option, serializers must respond to dump and load. However,
  serializers are only responsible for serializing a cached value, whereas
  coders are responsible for serializing the entire ActiveSupport::Cache::Entry
  instance. Additionally, the output from serializers can be automatically
  compressed, whereas coders are responsible for their own compression.

  Specifying a serializer instead of a coder also enables performance
  optimizations, including the bare string optimization introduced by cache
  format version 7.1.

  The :serializer and :coder options are mutually exclusive. Specifying
  both will raise an ArgumentError.

  Deprecations are reported as handled errors, with a severity of :warning.

  Useful to report deprecations happening in production to your bug tracker.

• ERB::Util.html_escape_once always returns an html_safe string.

  This method previously maintained the html_safe? property of a string on the return
  value. Because this string has been escaped, however, not marking it as html_safe causes
  entities to be double-escaped.

  As an example, take this view snippet:

  <p><%= html_escape_once("this & that &amp; the other") %></p>

  Before this change, that would be double-escaped and render as:

  <p>this &amp;amp; that &amp;amp; the other</p>

  After this change, it renders correctly as:

  <p>this &amp; that &amp; the other</p>

  Fixes #48256

  Mike Dalessio

• Deprecate SafeBuffer#clone_empty.

  This method has not been used internally since Rails 4.2.0.

  Mike Dalessio

• MessageEncryptor, MessageVerifier, and config.active_support.message_serializer
  now accept :message_pack and :message_pack_allow_marshal as serializers.
  These serializers require the msgpack gem
  (>= 1.7.0).

  The Message Pack format can provide improved performance and smaller payload
  sizes. It also supports round-tripping some Ruby types that are not supported
  by JSON. For example:

  verifier = ActiveSupport::MessageVerifier.new("secret")
  data = [{ a: 1 }, { b: 2 }.with_indifferent_access, 1.to_d, Time.at(0, 123)]
  message = verifier.generate(data)
  
  # BEFORE with config.active_support.message_serializer = :json
  verifier.verified(message)
  # => [{"a"=>1}, {"b"=>2}, "1.0", "1969-12-31T18:00:00.000-06:00"]
  verifier.verified(message).map(&:class)
  # => [Hash, Hash, String, String]
  
  # AFTER with config.active_support.message_serializer = :message_pack
  verifier.verified(message)
  # => [{:a=>1}, {"b"=>2}, 0.1e1, 1969-12-31 18:00:00.000123 -0600]
  verifier.verified(message).map(&:class)
  # => [Hash, ActiveSupport::HashWithIndifferentAccess, BigDecimal, Time]

  The :message_pack serializer can fall back to deserializing with
  ActiveSupport::JSON when necessary, and the :message_pack_allow_marshal
  serializer can fall back to deserializing with Marshal as well as
  ActiveSupport::JSON. Additionally, the :marshal, :json, and
  :json_allow_marshal serializers can now fall back to deserializing with
  ActiveSupport::MessagePack when necessary. These behaviors ensure old
  messages can still be read so that migration is easier.

  Jonathan Hefner

• A new 7.1 cache format is available which includes an optimization for
  bare string values such as view fragments.

  The 7.1 cache format is used by default for new apps, and existing apps
  can enable the format by setting config.load_defaults 7.1 or by setting
  config.active_support.cache_format_version = 7.1 in config/application.rb
  or a config/environments/*.rb file.

  Cache entries written using the 6.1 or 7.0 cache formats can be read
  when using the 7.1 format. To perform a rolling deploy of a Rails 7.1
  upgrade, wherein servers that have not yet been upgraded must be able to
  read caches from upgraded servers, leave the cache format unchanged on the
  first deploy, then enable the 7.1 cache format on a subsequent deploy.

  Jonathan Hefner

• Active Support cache stores can now use a preconfigured serializer based on
  ActiveSupport::MessagePack via the :serializer option:

  config.cache_store = :redis_cache_store, { serializer: :message_pack }

  The :message_pack serializer can reduce cache entry sizes and improve
  performance, but requires the msgpack gem
  (>= 1.7.0).

  The :message_pack serializer can read cache entries written by the default
  serializer, and the default serializer can now read entries written by the
  :message_pack serializer. These behaviors make it easy to migrate between
  serializer without invalidating the entire cache.

  Jonathan Hefner

• Object#deep_dup no longer duplicate named classes and modules.

• Deprecate usage of the singleton ActiveSupport::Deprecation.

  All usage of ActiveSupport::Deprecation as a singleton is deprecated, the most common one being
  ActiveSupport::Deprecation.warn. Gem authors should now create their own deprecator (ActiveSupport::Deprecation
  object), and use it to emit deprecation warnings.

  Calling any of the following without specifying a deprecator argument is also deprecated:

  • Module.deprecate
  • deprecate_constant
  • DeprecatedObjectProxy
  • DeprecatedInstanceVariableProxy
  • DeprecatedConstantProxy
  • deprecation-related test assertions
