CHANGELOG.md

Version 1.14.0

• Enhancement: the default configuration file has the .rb suffix to help editors automatically recognize the content Ruby (contributed by Jon Dufresne).

Version 1.13.0

• New feature: regexp-based ignore settings (contributed by fatkodima).
• Bug fix: ignore_columns is correctly handed in missing_unique_indexes ( contributed by fatkodima).
• Bug fix: primary keys are automatically recognized as indexed and unique by unindexed_foreign_keys and missing_unique_indexes (contributed by fatkodima).
• Bug fix: a typo in the description of incorrect_boolean_presence_validation is fixed (contributed by Jon Dufresne).

Version 1.12.0

• New feature: detect extraneous indexes on PostgreSQL materialized views (contributed by fatkodima).
• New feature: support for case-insensitive validations in missing_unique_indexes (contributed by fatkodima).
• New feature: support for has_one in missing_unique_indexes (contributed by fatkodima).
• New feature: support for async options in incorrect_dependent_option (contributed by fatkodima).
• Bug fix: make Rake integration work in non-Rails projects (contributed by fatkodima).
• Bug fix: ignore inherited validations in missing_unique_indexes (contributed by fatkodima).
• Bug fix: make extraneous_indexes work on expression indexes (contributed by fatkodima).
• short_primary_key type checks only integer indexes as they are the ones at the risk of running out (contributed by fatkodima).
• unindexed_foreign_keys looks at actual foreign keys, instead of guessing based on column name (contributed by fatkodima).
• Improvements and clarifications to documentation and error messages (contributed by Kurtis Rainbolt-Greene, Vincent Glennon, and fatkodima).

Version 1.11.0

• New feature: support for polymorphic associations in missing_non_null_constraint (contributed by fatkodima).
• New feature: support for foreign tables in PostgreSQL (contributed by fatkodima).
• New feature: debug logging for easier troubleshooting.
• Bug fix: incorrect_length_validation used to take the first length validator on the model, even if it didn't correspond to the column under consideration. This is no longer the case (contributed by Julián Lires).
• Bug fix: inclusion and exclusion validators can contain a proc in in: or within: which makes them impossible to analyze by active_record_doctor; such validations are now skipped (contributed by fatkodima).
• Fixed to documentation for incorrect_dependent_option (contributed by Erick Santos).
• Bug fix: mismatched_foreign_key_type used to always look at the type of the primary key in the other table, even if the foreign key was referencing a different column; the right column is now taken into account (contributed by Bruno Gerotto).
• Bug fix: incorrect_dependent_option didn't work correctly on through: associations as it would look at the final model (instead of the join model); additionally, if the join model lacked the corresponding has_many association it would result in NoMethodError.

Version 1.10.0

• New feature: incorrect_length_validation detector can identify text-column length mismatches between tables and models (suggested by fatkodima).
• New feature: each detector can be enabled or disabled globally via the configuration file.
• Enhancement: missing_non_null_constraints and missing_presence_validation recognized NOT NULL check constraints (contributed by fatkodima).
• Enhancement: missing_unique_index is aware of has_one associations and recommends creating an index on the corresponding foreign key (contributed by fatkodima).
• Bug fix: missing_unique_indexes can be satisfied by creating an index on a sublist of scope + column. Previously, it'd not accept such sublists even though they're enough to guarantee uniqueness (contributed by fatkodima).
• Bug fix: fix missing_unique_indexes crashes on function indexes (contributed by fatkodima).
• Bug fix: short_primary_key_type no longer complains about UUID primary keys (contributed by fatkodima).
• Bug fix: extraneous_indexes was made aware of non-standard primary key names and partial indexes (contributed by fatkodima).
• Bug fix: extraneous_indexes properly recognizes smaller indexes to be enough to guarantee uniqueness. Previously, it'd skip some smaller indexes and ask for a larger index to be created (contributed by fatkodima).
• Bug fix: unindexed_deleted_at correctly works on partial indexes intended to cover deleted columns. It no longer asks to create a contradictory condition (IS NULL AND IS NOT NULL) in those cases (contributed by fatkodima).
• Bug fix: incorrect_dependent_option works correctly on polymorphic associations.
• Bug fix: recognize the PostGIS adapter as PostgreSQL (contributed by fatkodima).
• Bug fix: index generators use index_name_length (defined by Active Record) to ensure index names aren't too long (contributed by fatkodima).
• Tested against Ruby 3.1 via CI (contributed by Peter Goldstein).
• Documentation fixes (contributed by Alistair McKinnell and Kaleb Lape).

Version 1.9.0

• New feature: support for project-specific configuration and Continuous Integration usage.
• New feature: mismatched_foreign_key_type can detect foreign keys using a different column type than the column they're referencing (contributed by fatkodima).
• New feature: short_primary_key_type can detect primary keys that use short integer types and pose a risk of running out of IDs (contributed by fatkodima).
• Enhancement: missing_non_null_constraint can now properly handle both STI and non-STI inheritance hierarchies (contributed by Greg Navis and fatkodima).
• Enhancement: incorrect_dependency_option now supports belongs_to associations (contributed by fatkodima).
• Enhancement: more built-in Rails tables are ignored by default.
• Bug fix: make extraneous_indexes take index options into account when comparing them for equivalence (contributed by fatkodima).
• Bug fix: add_indexes_generator uses the correct migration version.
• Bug fix: add_indexes_generattor truncates long index names (contributed by Dusan Orlovic).
• Bug fix: missing_unique_indexes reports tables instead of indexes - it didn't make sense to talk about indexes on models.

Version 1.8.0

• New feature: incorrect_dependency_option can detect cases sub-optimal or dangerous use of :delete_all or :destroy on associations (thanks to Dusan Orlovic for the contribution).
• New feature: all runs all tasks and exits with a zero status if there were no errors.
• New feature: support for MySQL!
• Bug fix: add_index in Rails 6 now correctly adds version numbers to migrations (thanks to Tatsuya Hoshino for the fix).
• Removed unnecessary dependencies on railties and activesupport.

Version 1.7.2

• All rake tasks added by active_record_doctor have a description so that they are now shown by rake -T.
• Bug fix: incorrect_boolean_presence_validation, missing_non_null_constraint and missing_presence_validation skip models whose underlying tables don't exist (thanks to rhymes for the fix).
• Bug fix: fix a bug in incorrect_boolean_presence_validation that caused exceptions (thanks to Eito Katagiri for the fix).
• Bug fix: add a missing dependency on activesupport (thanks to Yuto Ito for the fix).
• Bug fix: make missing_unique_indexes work on custom validators (thanks to Max Schwenk for the fix).
• Bug fix: make missing_unique_indexes order-independent so that it no longer reports false-positives when columns are reordered (thanks to rhymes for the fix).

Version 1.7.1

• Bug fix: fix a bug in missing_non_null_constraint that resulted in false positives (thanks to Artem Chubchenko for the fix).

Version 1.7.0

• New feature: detect incorrect boolean column presence validations (they must always use inclusion/exclusion instead of presence validators).
• Bug fix: don't report missing presence validations on boolean columns if they're properly validated for inclusion/exclusion.
• Bug fix: don't report missing presence validations if the validation is defined on the association instead of the foreign key column.
• Bug fix: report missing non-NULL constraints on foreign keys when the presence validation is defined on the association.
• Bug fix: make missing_unique_indexes work in Rails 6 (thanks to Hrvoje Šimić for the fix).
• Enhancement: support view-backed models in undefined_table_references.

Version 1.6.0

• New feature: detect columns validated for presence but missing a non-NULL constraint at the database level.
• New feature: detect columns with a non-NULL constraint at the database level without the corresponding presence validation.
