Additions/Changes

• Better read-only mode for UI (#772).
• Allow configuring preload via a block similar to memoize (#771).

  Rails.application.configure do
    # don't preload features for /assets/* but do for everything else
    config.flipper.preload = ->(request) { !request.path.start_with?('/assets') }
  end

• Added strict configuration to warn when accessing a feature that doesn't exist (#760, #763)

  Rails.application.configure do
    # Setting to `true` or `:raise` will raise error when a feature doesn't exist.
    # Use `:warn` to log a warning instead.
    config.flipper.strict = !Rails.env.production?
  end

• Handle deprecation of Rack::File in Rack 3.1 (#773).
• Human readable actor names in flipper-ui (#737).
• Expressions are now available and considered "alpha". They are not yet documented, but you can see examples in examples/expressions.rb. Those using the flipper-active_record adapter will want to migrate the database so it can store JSON expressions (#692)

  $ rails generate migration change_flipper_gates_value_to_text
  

  change_column :flipper_gates, :value, :text

• Allow head requests to api (#759)
• Cloud Telemetry alpha (#775).
• Easier statsd setup (#779).

  # You can now just do this in your configure block and it'll require the files and configure the client.
  Flipper.configure do |conf|
    conf.statsd = my_client
  end

• Load cloud secrets from Rails credentials (#782)

  $ rails credentials:edit

  flipper:
    cloud_token: <your-cloud-token>
    cloud_sync_secret: <your-webhook-secret>

Additions/Changes

Breaking Changes

• Removed bool, actors, time, actor, percentage_of_actors, and percentage_of_time methods on Flipper and Flipper::DSL. They are rarely if ever used and conflict with some upcoming features. If you are using them, you can migrate via a search and replace like so:
  • Change Flipper.bool => Flipper::Types::Boolean.new
  • Change Flipper.boolean => Flipper::Types::Boolean.new
  • Change Flipper.actor => Flipper::Types::Actor.new
  • Change Flipper.percentage_of_actors => Flipper::Types::PercentageOfActors.new
  • Change Flipper.actors => Flipper::Types::PercentageOfActors.new
  • Change Flipper.percentage_of_time => Flipper::Types::PercentageOfTime.new
  • Change Flipper.time => Flipper::Types::PercentageOfTime.new
