A Fresh Cup is Mike Gunderloy's software development weblog, covering Ruby on Rails and whatever else I find interesting in the universe of software. I'm a full-time Rails developer and contributor, available for long- or short-term consulting, with solid experience in working as part of a distributed team.

What's New in Edge Rails #28

Week of July 2 - July 8, 2012

This week also featured a bunch of noodling around with test harness internals, but that's sort of endemic to any ruby project.

  • More statements for migrations: add_reference and remove_reference (aliased to add_belongs_to and remove_belongs_to as well). These are reversible, and take care of the columns and indexes, even in polymorphic cases. The changelog is at 17d2115e.
  • edaa2c48 introduces an easier syntax to set ActionMailer defaults in your config files.
  • 238a4253 finally adds support for defining your own flash types, in case :notice and :alert aren't what you prefer.
  • When you hit a RoutingError in development, you will automatically see your defined routes as of fa714ec7.
