Rails 4.1.1 (May 6, 2014)

  • No changes.

Rails 4.1.0 (April 8, 2014)

  • Fixed ActionView::Digestor template lookup to use the lookup_context exclusively, and not rely on the passed-in format.
    This unfortunately means that the cache_key changed, so upgrading will invalidate all prior caches. Take note if you rely
    heavily on caching in production when you push this live.

    DHH

  • number_to_percentage does not crash with Float::NAN or Float::INFINITY
    as input.

    Fixes #14405.

    Yves Senn

  • Take variants into account when calculating template digests in ActionView::Digestor.

    The arguments to ActionView::Digestor#digest are now being passed as a hash
    to support variants and allow more flexibility in the future. The support for
    regular (required) arguments is deprecated and will be removed in Rails 5.0 or later.

    Piotr Chmolowski, Łukasz Strzałkowski

  • Fix a problem where the default options for the button_tag helper were not
    being applied correctly.

    Fixes #14255.

    Sergey Prikhodko

  • Fix ActionView label translation for more than 10 nested elements.

    Vladimir Krylov

  • Added :plain, :html and :body options for render method. Please see
    the ActionPack release notes for more detail.

    Prem Sichanugrist

  • Date select helpers accept a format string for the months selector via the
    new option :month_format_string.

    When rendered, the format string gets passed keys :number (integer), and
    :name (string), in order to be able to interpolate them as in

    ‘%{name} (%02d)’

    for example.

    This option is motivated by #13618.

    Xavier Noria

  • Added config.action_view.raise_on_missing_translations to define whether an
    error should be raised for missing translations.

    Fixes #13196.

    Kassio Borges

  • Improved ERB dependency detection. New argument types and formattings for the render
    calls can be matched.

    Fixes #13074, #13116.

    João Britto

  • Use display:none instead of display:inline for hidden fields.

    Fixes #6403.

    Gaelian Ditchburn

  • The video_tag helper now accepts a number for :size.

    The :size option of the video_tag helper now can be specified
    with a stringified number. The width and height attributes of
    the generated tag will be the same.

    Kuldeep Aggarwal

  • Escape format, negative_format and units options of number helpers

    Fixes: CVE-2014-0081

  • A Cycle object should accept an array and cycle through it as it would with a set of
    comma-separated objects.

    arr = [1,2,3]
    cycle(arr) # => ‘1’
    cycle(arr) # => ‘2’
    cycle(arr) # => ‘3’

    Previously, it would return the array as a string, because it took the array as a
    single object:

    arr = [1,2,3]
    cycle(arr) # => ‘[1,2,3]’
    cycle(arr) # => ‘[1,2,3]’
    cycle(arr) # => ‘[1,2,3]’

    Kristian Freeman

  • Label tags generated by collection helpers only inherit the :index and
    :namespace from the input, because only these attributes modify the
    for attribute of the label. Also, the input attributes don’t have
    precedence over the label attributes anymore.

    Before:

    collection = [[1, true, { class: ‘foo’ }]]
    f.collection_check_boxes :options, collection, :second, :first do |b|
    b.label(class: ‘my_custom_class’)
    end

    # => 1

    After:

    collection = [[1, true, { class: ‘foo’ }]]
    f.collection_check_boxes :options, collection, :second, :first do |b|
    b.label(class: ‘my_custom_class’)
    end

    # => 1

    Andriel Nuernberg

  • Fix a long-standing bug in json_escape that caused quotation marks to be stripped.
    This method also escapes the \u2028 and \u2029 unicode newline characters which are
    treated as \n in JavaScript. This matches the behaviour of the AS::JSON encoder. (The
    original change in the encoder was introduced in #10534.)

    Godfrey Chan

  • ActionView::MissingTemplate includes underscore when raised for a partial.

    Fixes #13002.

    Yves Senn

  • Use set_backtrace instead of instance variable @backtrace in ActionView exceptions.

    Shimpei Makimoto

  • Fix simple_format escapes own output when passing sanitize: true.

    Paul Seidemann

  • Ensure ActionView::Digestor.cache is correctly cleaned up when
    combining recursive templates with ActionView::Resolver.caching = false.

    wyaeld

  • Fix collection_check_boxes so the generated hidden input correctly uses the
    name attribute provided in the options hash.

    Angel N. Sciortino

  • Fix some edge cases for the AV select helper with the :selected option.

    Bogdan Gusiev

  • Enable passing a block to the select helper.

    Example:

    <%= select(report, “campaign_ids”) do %>
    <% available_campaigns.each do |c| -%>
    <%= content_tag(:option, c.name, value: c.id, data: { tags: c.tags.to_json }) %>
    <% end -%>
    <% end -%>

    Bogdan Gusiev

  • Handle :namespace form option in collection labels.

    Vasiliy Ermolovich

  • Fix form_for when both namespace and as options are present.

    The as option no longer overwrites the namespace option when
    generating an HTML id attribute of the form element.

    Adam Niedzielski

  • Fix excerpt when :separator is nil.

    Paul Nikitochkin

  • Only cache template digests if config.cache_template_loading is true.

    Josh Lauer, Justin Ridgewell

  • Fix a bug where the lookup details were not being taken into account
    when caching the digest of a template - changes to the details now
    cause a different cache key to be used.

    Daniel Schierbeck

  • Added an extname hash option to the javascript_include_tag method.

    Before:

    javascript_include_tag(‘templates.jst’)
    # =>

    After:

    javascript_include_tag(‘templates.jst’, extname: false )
    # =>

    Nathan Stitt

  • Fix current_page? when the URL contains escaped characters and the
    original URL is using the hexadecimal lowercased.

    Rafael Mendonça França

  • Fix text_area to behave like text_field when nil is given as a
    value.

    Before:

    f.text_field :field, value: nil #=>
    f.text_area :field, value: nil #=> value of field

    After:

    f.text_area :field, value: nil #=>

    Joel Cogen

  • Allow grouped_options_for_select to optionally contain html attributes
    as the last element of the array.

    grouped_options_for_select(
    [[“North America”, [[‘United States’,‘US’],“Canada”], data: { foo: ‘bar’ }]]
    )

    Vasiliy Ermolovich

  • Fix default rendered format problem when calling render without :content_type option.
    It should return :html. Fix #11393.

    Gleb Mazovetskiy, Oleg, kennyj

  • Fix link_to with block and url hashes.

    Before:

    link_to(action: ‘bar’, controller: ‘foo’) { content_tag(:span, ‘Example site’) }
    # => “Example site”

    After:

    link_to(action: ‘bar’, controller: ‘foo’) { content_tag(:span, ‘Example site’) }
    # => “Example site”

    Murahashi Sanemat Kenichi

  • Fix “Stack Level Too Deep” error when rendering recursive partials.

    Fixes #11340.

    Rafael Mendonça França

  • Added an enforce_utf8 hash option for form_tag method.

    Control to output a hidden input tag with name utf8 without monkey
    patching.

    Before:

    form_tag
    # => ‘….’

    After:

    form_tag
    # => ‘….’

    form_tag({}, { :enforce_utf8 => false })
    # => ‘….’

    ma2gedev

  • Remove the deprecated include_seconds argument from distance_of_time_in_words,
    pass in an :include_seconds hash option to use this feature.

    Carlos Antonio da Silva

  • Remove deprecated block passing to FormBuilder#new.

    Vipul A M

  • Pick DateField DateTimeField and ColorField values from stringified options
    allowing use of symbol keys with helpers.

    Jon Rowe

  • Remove the deprecated prompt argument from grouped_options_for_select,
    pass in a :prompt hash option to use this feature.

    kennyj

  • Always escape the result of link_to_unless methods.

    Before:

    link_to_unless(true, ‘Showing’, ‘github.com’)
    # => “Showing”

    After:

    link_to_unless(true, ‘Showing’, ‘github.com’)
    # => “<b>Showing</b>”

    dtaniwaki

  • Use a case insensitive URI Regexp for #asset_path.

    This fixes a problem where the same asset path using different cases
    was generating different URIs.

    Before:

    image_tag(“HTTP://google.com”)
    # => “\"Google\"”
    image_tag(“http://google.com”)
    # => “\"Google\"”

    After:

    image_tag(“HTTP://google.com”)
    # => “\"Google\"”
    image_tag(“http://google.com”)
    # => “\"Google\"”

    optionally contain html attributes as the last element of the array.

    Vasiliy Ermolovich

  • Update the HTML BOOLEAN_ATTRIBUTES in ActionView::Helpers::TagHelper
    to conform to the latest HTML 5.1 spec. Add attributes allowfullscreen,
    default, inert, sortable, truespeed, typemustmatch. Fix attribute
    seamless (previously misspelled seemless).
