New router for Action Controller
When we switched to a REST-based approach for controllers in Rails 2, we patched on the syntax to the existing router while we were waiting to see if the experiment panned out.
It did and for Rails 3 we’ve gone back and revamped the syntax completely to favor the REST style with less noise and more flexibility:

Read more in new Action Mailer guide. Manage dependencies with Bundler Bundler cleans all that up and allows you to specify the libraries, frameworks, and plugins that your application depends on. All Rails 3 applications are born with a Gemfile to control it all. See more on the Bundler site. XSS protection by default See the Railscast on XSS video and the Dive into Rails 3: Cross-site scripting video for more. Say goodbye to encoding issues In a system like Rails, content comes from the database, your templates, your source files, and from the user. Ruby 1.9 gives us the raw tools to eliminate these problems, and in combination with Rails 3, � should be a thing of the past in Rails applications. Never struggle with corrupted data pasted by a user from Microsoft Word again! Active Model: Validations, callbacks, etc for all models Additionally, in the rewrite of Action Controller, we removed any direct references to Active Record, defining a clean, simple API that ORMs can implement. If you use an API-compliant ORM (like DataMapper, Sequel, or Mongoid), you will be able to use features like form_for, link_to and redirect_to with objects from those ORMs without any additional work. Official plugin APIs The new Railtie API makes it possible to modify the built-in generators, add rake tasks, configure default Rails options, and specify code to run as early, or as late as you need. Rails plugins like Devise were able to add much better integration in the Rails 3 version of their plugin. Expect to see a lot more of that in the months ahead. Rewritten internals You can also take a look a this blog post by Yehuda (from last year) to see how the new architecture makes it easy to implement Django-style generic actions in Rails by leveraging Rack and ActionController::Metal. The Rails generator system is got a revamp as well. Instead of monolithic generators that know about all of the Rails frameworks, each generator calls a series of hooks, such as :test_framework and :orm, that plugins can register handlers for. This means that generating a scaffold when using rSpec, DataMapper and Haml will generate a scaffold customized for those plugins. Agnosticism with jQuery, rSpec, and Data Mapper It’s never been easier to Have It Your Way™ with Rails 3. And at the same time, we’ve made that happen without making using the excellent default stack any more complicated. Documentation The Agile Web Development with Rails 4th Ed book is almost ready and there are plenty more books coming. Check out all the new guides, the new official videos, new Railscasts, and a new tutorial. See the recent recap of documentation sources for more. Installation We also have a Rails v3.0.0 tag and a 3-0-stable branch. Rails 3.0 has been designed to work with Ruby 1.8.7, Ruby 1.9.2, and JRuby 1.5.2+. Gratitude and next steps We’ll continue to develop Rails 3.0 with fixes and tweaks via the stable branch and Rails 3.1 is already cooking on master. UPDATE: We’re raising money for Charity:Water in the name of Rails 3.0. Please donate and help us bring clean water to 5,000 people in the name of the Rails community.<pre style="font-size: 12px">resources :people do
resource :avatar</p>
collection do
get :winners, :losers
end
scope ‘:token’, :token => /\w{5,5}/ do
resources :rooms
end
scope ‘(:locale)’, :locale => /en|pl/ do
resources :descriptions
root :to => ‘projects#index’
end</pre></code>
Action Mailer was born with a split-personality of half model, half controller. In Rails 3, we’ve made the choice to make it all controller. This means that the feel and functionality will be much closer to Action Controller and in fact they now share a bunch of underlying code. Here’s a taste of what it looks like now:<pre style="font-size: 12px">class Notifier < ActionMailer::Base
default :from =>
"Highrise <system@#{APPLICATION_DOMAIN}>"</p>
def new_project(digest, project, person)
@digest, @project, @person = digest, project, person
attachments[‘digest.pdf’] = digest.to_pdf
attachments[‘logo.jpg’] = File.read(project.logo_path)
mail(
:subject => “Your digest for #{project.name}”,
:to => person.email_address_with_name
) do |format|
format.text { render :text => “Something texty” }
format.html { render :text => “Something texty” }
end
end
Managing all the dependencies of a Rails application has long been a hassle of patchworks. We had config.gem, Capistrano externals, custom rake setup tasks, and other incomplete solutions.
The internet is a scary place and Rails 3 is watching out for you by default. We’ve had CRSF protection with form signing for a while and SQL-injection protection since the beginning, but Rails 3 ups the anté with XSS protection as well (hat tip to Django for convincing us).
If you browse the Internet with any frequency, you will likely encounter the � character. This problem is extremely pervasive, and is caused by mixing and matching content with different encodings.
We’ve extracted quite a bit of commonly requested Active Record components into the new Active Model framework. This allows an ORM like Mongoid to use Active Record’s validations, callbacks, serialization, and i18n support.
We also rewrote Railties with the express goal of using the new plugin API for all Rails frameworks like Active Record and Action Mailer. This means that Rails plugins like the ones for DataMapper and RSpec have access to all of the integration as the built-in support for Active Record and Test::Unit.
We rewrote the internals of Action Pack and Railties, making them much more flexible and easier to extend. Instead of a single monolithic ActionController::Base, Rails 3 exposes a number of modules, each with defined APIs, that you can mix and match to create special-purpose controllers for your own use. Both Action Mailer in Rails and the Cells project make heavy use of this new functionality.
The rewritten internals and the new plugin APIs have brought true agnosticism to Rails 3 for all components of the framework. Prefer DataMapper to Active Record? No problem. Want to use jQuery instead of Prototype? Go ahead. Eager to test with rSpec instead of test/unit? You got it.
Rails 3 has had a long development cycle and while that might have lead to some impatience, it has also given book and tutorial authors a chance to catch up and be ready. There’s a wealth of great Rails 3 documentation available already and more is coming shortly.
gem install rails --version 3.0.0.
I’m personally incredibly proud of this release. I’ve been working on Rails for more than 7 years and the quality of the framework we have today is just astounding. This is only possible as a community effort and Rails 3 has seen so many incredible developers step up and help make this our best release ever (wink). Many thanks to all of you.
