• Fix displaying mailer previews on non local requests when config action_mailer.show_previews is set

  Wojciech Wnętrzak

Rails 4.2.4 (August 24, 2015)

  Richard Schneeman, Godfrey Chan

• Generated migrations add the appropriate foreign key constraints to references.

  Derek Prior

• Add a required option to the model generator for associations

• Add after_bundle callbacks in Rails templates. Useful for allowing the generated binstubs to be added to version control.

  Fixes #16292.

  Stefan Kanev

• Pull in the custom configuration concept from dhh/custom_configuration, which allows you to configure your own code through the Rails configuration object with custom configuration:

  # config/environments/production.rb
  config.x.payment_processing.schedule = :daily
  config.x.payment_processing.retries  = 3
  config.x.super_debugger              = true
  

  These configuration points are then available through the configuration object:

  Rails.configuration.x.payment_processing.schedule # => :daily
  Rails.configuration.x.payment_processing.retries  # => 3
  Rails.configuration.x.super_debugger              # => true

  development:
    url: http://localhost:3001

  Arun Agrawal

• Make the rails:template rake task load the application's initializers.

  Fixes #12133.

  Robin Dupret

  Example:

  Rails.version #=> "4.1.2"
  Rails.gem_version #=> #<Gem::Version "4.1.2">
  
  Rails.version > "4.1.10" #=> false
  Rails.gem_version > Gem::Version.new("4.1.10") #=> true
  Gem::Requirement.new("~> 4.1.2") =~ Rails.gem_version #=> true
  

  Prem Sichanugrist
