== Summary == Ruby on Rails 7.0 is the latest version of well known web framework written in Ruby. == Owner == * Name: [[User:pvalena| Pavel Valena]], [[User:jprokop| Jarek Prokop]] * Email: pval...@redhat.com, jpro...@redhat.com, ruby-...@lists.fedoraproject.org == Detailed Description == The Ruby on Rails stack is evolving quickly and Fedora needs to keep pace with it. Therefore the whole Ruby on Rails stack should be updated from 6.1 in Fedora 35 to 7.0 (latest version) in Fedora 36. This will ensure that all the Ruby developers using Fedora have the latest and greatest RPM-packaged Ruby on Rails. == Benefit to Fedora == This update will keep Fedora up-to-date and will ensure that the current Ruby on Rails developers stay with us as they will get support for system-packaged Ruby on Rails of the latest version. Update to Rails 7.0 contains hundreds of fixes and improvements across all the frameworks. For new features, please see [#User_Experience User Experience]. == Scope == * Proposal owners: ** The whole Rails stack has to be updated. ** Some dependencies of the Rails stack will need update. === Packages need to be created/updated === * Rails bug: [https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2032639 #2032639] ** Specific changes: (see wiki) * Current development state can be observed in [https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/pvalena/ruby-on-rails/ pvalena/ruby-on-rails] COPR repository. ** Current status: '''version 7.0.0''' built and tested * Other developers: Update Rails dependent packages to be working with Ruby on Rails 7.0 * Policies and guidelines: N/A (not a System Wide Change) * Trademark approval: N/A (not needed for this Change) == Upgrade/compatibility impact == Web applications build above Ruby on Rails framework might need to be updated. Official upstream upgrade guide might come handy: http://guides.rubyonrails.org/upgrading_ruby_on_rails.html == How To Test == * No special hardware is needed. * Some additional adjustments to dependencies are needed to start the default app. Example: ** https://github.com/pvalena/theprototype/blob/main/rails/test.sh === To test only Rails itself === <pre> dnf install rubygem-rails rails new app cd app && rails s </pre> * Go to http://127.0.0.1:3000/ and make sure you are running Rails 7.0.x === To test the complete feature including generating a new Rails app using RPM === <pre> dnf group install 'Ruby on Rails' rails new app --skip-bundle && cd app rails s </pre> * Go to http://127.0.0.1:3000/ and make sure you are running Rails 7.0.x == User Experience == * New version of Ruby on Rails (7.0) available * The most significant Rails 7.0 features: ** No-Node default approach to the front end ** Hotwire’s combination of Turbo and Stimulus ** Easily use any JavaScript bundler ** Encrypted attributes in Active Record ** Asynchronous Query Loading ** Zeitwerk autoloader is used exclusively == Dependencies == * There are several packages, which depends on Ruby on Rails framework. * These needs to be surely updated: ** (none) * Following gems don't support Rails 7.0 right now and would be broken by the update: ** (none) * As Rails requires Ruby >= 2.7, the platform less than the version can not use Rails 7.0. == Contingency Plan == * Contingency mechanism: None needed. Rails stack won't be updated until all its dependencies are in Rawhide. After that, it will be a simple matter of updating the core packages (and their dependencies) via side-tag. * Contingency deadline: N/A (not a System Wide Change) * Blocks release? No * Blocks product? No == Documentation == * http://api.rubyonrails.org/ == Release Notes == * https://rubyonrails.org/2021/12/15/Rails-7-fulfilling-a-vision * https://edgeguides.rubyonrails.org/7_0_release_notes.html -- Ben Cotton He / Him / His Fedora Program Manager Red Hat TZ=America/Indiana/Indianapolis _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
