Hi, it’s Greg. Let’s explore this week’s changes in the Rails codebase.

Rails Plugin documentation update
As part of improving the documentation of the framework, The Rails Plugins Guide has been updated.

Fix consistency of generated structure.sql for latest PostgreSQL versions which include \restrict
This pull request fixes the removal of pg_dump’s versioning comments by also removing the new \restrict lines. By removing all these lines, the generated structure.sql can again be consistent between runs of rails db:schema:dump on the latest versions of PostgreSQL.

Allow current_page? to match against specific HTTP method(s) with a method: option
Before this change, the current_page? helper only matched on GET and HEAD requests, but with the new optional method option, it will match against explicit HTTP methods.

Filter sensitive attributes in logs
Attributes filtered by filter_attributes will now also be filtered by filter_parameters to assure that sensitive information is not leaked to the logs.

You can view the whole list of changes here. We had 18 contributors to the Rails codebase this past week!

Until next time!
