Rails 7.0.0.rc1 (December 06, 2021)

• The Action Cable client now ensures successful channel subscriptions:

  • The client maintains a set of pending subscriptions until either the server confirms the subscription or the channel is torn down.
  • Rectifies the race condition where an unsubscribe is rapidly followed by a subscribe (on the same channel identifier) and the requests are handled out of order by the ActionCable server, thereby ignoring the subscribe command.

  DHH

• Move action_cable.js to actioncable.js to match naming convention used for other Rails frameworks, and use JS console to communicate the deprecation.

  DHH

• Stop transpiling the UMD package generated as actioncable.js and drop the IE11 testing that relied on that.

  DHH

• Truncate broadcast logging messages.

  J Smith

• OpenSSL constants are now used for Digest computations.

  Dirkjan Bussink

• The Action Cable client now includes safeguards to prevent a "thundering herd" of client reconnects after server connectivity loss:

  • The client will wait a random amount between 1x and 3x of the stale threshold after the server's last ping before making the first reconnection attempt.
  • Subsequent reconnection attempts now use exponential backoff instead of logarithmic backoff. To allow the delay between reconnection attempts to increase slowly at first, the default exponentiation base is < 2.
  • Random jitter is applied to each delay between reconnection attempts.
