<h3 id="upgrading-to-rails-5-0"><a class="anchorlink" href="#upgrading-to-rails-5-0">1 Upgrading to Rails 5.0</a></h3><p>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 4.2 in case you
haven't and make sure your application still runs as expected before attempting
an update to Rails 5.0. A list of things to watch out for when upgrading is
available in the
<a href="upgrading_ruby_on_rails.html#upgrading-from-rails-4-2-to-rails-5-0">Upgrading Ruby on Rails</a>
guide.</p><h3 id="major-features"><a class="anchorlink" href="#major-features">2 Major Features</a></h3><h4 id="action-cable"><a class="anchorlink" href="#action-cable">2.1 Action Cable</a></h4><p>Action Cable is a new framework in Rails 5. It seamlessly integrates
<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebSocket">WebSockets</a> with the rest of your
Rails application.</p><p>Action Cable allows for real-time features to be written in Ruby in the
same style and form as the rest of your Rails application, while still being
performant and scalable. It's a full-stack offering that provides both a
client-side JavaScript framework and a server-side Ruby framework. You have
access to your full domain model written with Active Record or your ORM of
choice.</p><p>See the <a href="action_cable_overview.html">Action Cable Overview</a> guide for more
information.</p><h4 id="api-applications"><a class="anchorlink" href="#api-applications">2.2 API Applications</a></h4><p>Rails can now be used to create slimmed down API only applications.
This is useful for creating and serving APIs similar to <a href="https://dev.twitter.com">Twitter</a> or <a href="https://developer.github.com">GitHub</a> API,
that can be used to serve public facing, as well as, for custom applications.</p><p>You can generate a new api Rails app using:</p><div class="code_container">
<pre class="brush: plain; gutter: false; toolbar: false">
$ rails new my_api --api
</pre>
</div>
<p>This will do three main things:</p>
<ul>
<li>Configure your application to start with a more limited set of middleware
than normal. Specifically, it will not include any middleware primarily useful
for browser applications (like cookies support) by default.</li>
<li>Make <code>ApplicationController</code> inherit from <code>ActionController::API</code> instead of
<code>ActionController::Base</code>. As with middleware, this will leave out any Action
Controller modules that provide functionalities primarily used by browser
applications.</li>
<li>Configure the generators to skip generating views, helpers, and assets when
you generate a new resource.</li>
</ul>
<p>The application provides a base for APIs,
that can then be <a href="api_app.html">configured to pull in functionality</a> as suitable for the application's needs.</p><p>See the <a href="api_app.html">Using Rails for API-only Applications</a> guide for more
information.</p><h4 id="active-record-attributes-api"><a class="anchorlink" href="#active-record-attributes-api">2.3 Active Record attributes API</a></h4><p>Defines an attribute with a type on a model. It will override the type of existing attributes if needed.
This allows control over how values are converted to and from SQL when assigned to a model.
It also changes the behavior of values passed to <code>ActiveRecord::Base.where</code>, which lets use our domain objects across much of Active Record,
without having to rely on implementation details or monkey patching.</p><p>Some things that you can achieve with this:</p>
<ul>
<li>The type detected by Active Record can be overridden.</li>
<li>A default can also be provided.</li>
<li>Attributes do not need to be backed by a database column.</li>
</ul>
<div class="code_container">
<pre class="brush: ruby; gutter: false; toolbar: false">
# db/schema.rb
create_table :store_listings, force: true do |t|
t.decimal :price_in_cents
t.string :my_string, default: "original default"
end
# app/models/store_listing.rb
class StoreListing < ActiveRecord::Base
end
store_listing = StoreListing.new(price_in_cents: '10.1')
# before
store_listing.price_in_cents # => BigDecimal.new(10.1)
StoreListing.new.my_string # => "original default"
class StoreListing < ActiveRecord::Base
attribute :price_in_cents, :integer # custom type
attribute :my_string, :string, default: "new default" # default value
attribute :my_default_proc, :datetime, default: -> { Time.now } # default value
attribute :field_without_db_column, :integer, array: true
end
# after
store_listing.price_in_cents # => 10
StoreListing.new.my_string # => "new default"
StoreListing.new.my_default_proc # => 2015-05-30 11:04:48 -0600
model = StoreListing.new(field_without_db_column: ["1", "2", "3"])
model.attributes # => {field_without_db_column: [1, 2, 3]}
</pre>
</div>
<p><strong>Creating Custom Types:</strong></p><p>You can define your own custom types, as long as they respond
to the methods defined on the value type. The method <code>deserialize</code> or
<code>cast</code> will be called on your type object, with raw input from the
database or from your controllers. This is useful, for example, when doing custom conversion,
like Money data.</p><p><strong>Querying:</strong></p><p>When <code>ActiveRecord::Base.where</code> is called, it will
use the type defined by the model class to convert the value to SQL,
calling <code>serialize</code> on your type object.</p><p>This gives the objects ability to specify, how to convert values when performing SQL queries.</p><p><strong>Dirty Tracking:</strong></p><p>The type of an attribute is given the opportunity to change how dirty
tracking is performed.</p><p>See its
<a href="https://api.rubyonrails.org/v5.0.1/classes/ActiveRecord/Attributes/ClassMethods.html">documentation</a>
for a detailed write up.</p><h4 id="test-runner"><a class="anchorlink" href="#test-runner">2.4 Test Runner</a></h4><p>A new test runner has been introduced to enhance the capabilities of running tests from Rails.
To use this test runner simply type <code>bin/rails test</code>.</p><p>Test Runner is inspired from <code>RSpec</code>, <code>minitest-reporters</code>, <code>maxitest</code> and others.
It includes some of these notable advancements:</p>
<ul>
<li>Run a single test using line number of test.</li>
<li>Run multiple tests pinpointing to line number of tests.</li>
<li>Improved failure messages, which also add ease of re-running failed tests.</li>
<li>Fail fast using <code>-f</code> option, to stop tests immediately on occurrence of failure,
instead of waiting for the suite to complete.</li>
<li>Defer test output until the end of a full test run using the <code>-d</code> option.</li>
<li>Complete exception backtrace output using <code>-b</code> option.</li>
<li>Integration with minitest to allow options like <code>-s</code> for test seed data,
<code>-n</code> for running specific test by name, <code>-v</code> for better verbose output and so forth.</li>
<li>Colored test output.</li>
</ul>

defaults without breaking existing migrations, or forcing them to be
rewritten through a deprecation cycle.
(<a href="https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/21538">Pull Request</a>)</p></li>
<li><p> <code>ApplicationRecord</code> is a new superclass for all app models, analogous to app
controllers subclassing <code>ApplicationController</code> instead of
<code>ActionController::Base</code>. This gives apps a single spot to configure app-wide
model behavior.
(<a href="https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/22567">Pull Request</a>)</p></li>

than the current time.
(<a href="https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/18956">Pull Request</a>)</p></li>
<li>
<p> Change transaction callbacks to not swallow errors.
Before this change any errors raised inside a transaction callback
were getting rescued and printed in the logs, unless you used
the (newly deprecated) <code>raise_in_transactional_callbacks = true</code> option.</p>
<p>Now these errors are not rescued anymore and just bubble up, matching the
behavior of other callbacks.
