Full Changelog: v0.5.3...v0.5.4

0.5.0: Handler optimization and deserialization fix

This release reduces the handler size by excluding the redundant 'job:' key (only 'job_data:' is necessary).

This ensures that a job can be deserialized even if the underlying ActiveJob class is unknown to the worker, and will result in a retryable NameError instead of a permanently-failed DeserializationError.

0.4.0: Ruby 3.0+ keyword argument support

This release irons out a few kinks in the way that .delay and handle_asynchronously forward keyword arguments through to the delayed method call, with support for the new separation of positional and keyword arguments introduced in 2.7 and enforced in 3.0.

Since Ruby 3.0-style kwargs are already fully supported via ActiveJob (which we strongly recommend using going forward), this means that this library is now fully Ruby 3.0-capable!

A minor internal detail:

Delayed::PerformableMethod now splits kwargs out into a separate attribute, while still being backwards-compatible with jobs enqueued via the previous gem version. This is an undocumented internal API and is not considered a breaking change, but if you had previously relied on payload_object.args.last to access keyword arguments, you must now use payload_object.kwargs.

0.3.0: Official Rails 7 Support (alpha2)

Added

• Add more official support for Rails 7.0 (currently alpha2). There were no gem conflicts, but this
  adds an entry to our Appraisals file so that we run CI tests against ActiveRecord 7.

Fixed

• Fix Rails 7.0 deprecation warnings caused by usages of ActiveRecord::Base.default_timestamp
• Fix tests that relied on classic autoloader behavior. Now we pull in Zeitwerk where necessary.
• Fix a couple issues caught by the linter, most notably resulting in a switch from IO.select(...)
  to IO#wait_readable(...), improving support for Ruby 3 scheduler hooks.

0.2.0: Rails 6.1 fixes + improved constant autoloading

• Fixed the loading of Delayed::Job constant on newly-generated Rails 6.1 apps. (previously, the
  constant would not be available until ActiveRecord::Base was referenced for the first time)
• The Delayed::Railtie is now a Delayed::Engine, allowing it to autoload constants via Rails'
  built-in autoloader. In a non-Rails context, require 'delayed' will eager-load its models.

0.1.1: A CHANGELOG!

This release adds a CHANGELOG file!

It also fixes the gemspec description, which had previously been written in rdoc format (causing it to appear garbled on rubygems.org).

0.1.0: Initial release!

This repo is the result of some merging, squashing, and commit massaging, in preparation for a public release! The goal was to maintain historical commit authorship of the ancestor repos (delayed_job and delayed_job_active_record), plus the changes from Betterment's internal forks.
