Ruby on Rails 6.0 Release Notes

Highlights in Rails 6.0:

These release notes cover only the major changes. To learn about various bug fixes and changes, please refer to the change logs or check out the list of commits in the main Rails repository on GitHub.

1 Upgrading to Rails 6.0

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 5.2 in case you haven't and make sure your application still runs as expected before attempting an update to Rails 6.0. A list of things to watch out for when upgrading is available in the Upgrading Ruby on Rails guide.

2 Major Features

2.1 Action Mailbox

Pull Request

Action Mailbox allows you to route incoming emails to controller-like mailboxes. You can read more about Action Mailbox in the Action Mailbox Basics guide.

2.2 Action Text

Pull Request

Action Text brings rich text content and editing to Rails. It includes the Trix editor that handles everything from formatting to links to quotes to lists to embedded images and galleries. The rich text content generated by the Trix editor is saved in its own RichText model that's associated with any existing Active Record model in the application. Any embedded images (or other attachments) are automatically stored using Active Storage and associated with the included RichText model.

You can read more about Action Text in the Action Text Overview guide.

2.3 Parallel Testing

Pull Request

Parallel Testing allows you to parallelize your test suite. While forking processes is the default method, threading is supported as well. Running tests in parallel reduces the time it takes your entire test suite to run.

2.4 Action Cable Testing

Pull Request

Action Cable testing tools allow you to test your Action Cable functionality at any level: connections, channels, broadcasts.
