Hi, Petrik here with some updates on activities in Rails and associated projects over the last week.

By default, templates will accept any locals as keyword arguments. To define what locals a template accepts, add a locals magic comment:

<%# locals: (message:) -%>
<%= message %>

Try to find a second time if find_or_create_by hits a uniqueness constraint
For the case where most of the time the record is expected to exist, find_or_create_by can be made race-condition free by re-trying the find if the create failed with ActiveRecord::RecordNotUnique. This assumes that the table has the proper uniqueness constraints, if not, find_or_create_by will still lead to duplicated records.

The remove_check_constraint method now accepts an if_exists option. If set to true an error won't be raised if the check constraint doesn't exist.

Add linter for CHANGELOG formatting
A PR to Rails should include a CHANGELOG entry if you're adding or removing a feature, committing a bug fix, or adding deprecation notices. To prevent inconsistencies in the CHANGELOG a linter has been added.

Add drop_enum migration command for PostgreSQL
This does the inverse of create_enum. Before dropping an enum, ensure you have dropped columns that depend on it.

Update the existing Kindle version of the guide from .mobi to .epub
As Kindle is discontinuing support for the .mobi format, this makes the guides available as .epub.

Over time, a Rails app can become slow to boot simply because of how many routes it has. This new option for the routes command can be used to detect routes that are drawn, but aren't actually valid.

24 people contributed to Rails since the last time.

Lots of activity in the Hotwired world this week as well.

Release Turbo v7.2.0-beta.2
This builds on the v7.2.0-beta.1 release that saw substantial new features and bugs fixes.

Introduce turbo:frame-missing event

When a response from within a frame is missing a matching frame, the turbo:frame-missing event is fired.
For example, if the reason the frame is missing is access (an expired session, for example), the call to visit() can be made with { action: "replace" } to remove the current page from Turbo's page history.

When a <turbo-stream> element connects to the document, all included <script> elements will be activated.

This change will save the values of <select>s when creating a snapshot so that when you navigate back or forward in history, form fields will not be reset.

That's it for this week. Until next time!
