  • Stop Relying on If Not Exists for Concurrent Index Creation in PostgreSQL

    Hey Andrew! So good to see you here. I agree with everything you said 100%. I am honestly split, because I was the first one recommending engineers if_not_exists, but now I am torn, because this can lead to very weird issues in production, esp. for ActiveRecord apps, and maintaining a "invalid index reaper job" doesn't sound like a good long term solution.

    I did suggest some proposals to Rails here and would love to propose a PR based on a solution that makes the most sense too

  • Ask HN: Learning Ruby on Rails?

    I think the hardest part is deciding which gems to use. It's not uncommon to end up with over 50 gems in your Gemfile.

    For example, built-in capabilities for authentication are limited: https://github.com/rails/rails/issues/50446

    So then do you go with has_secure_password/etc., Devise, rodauth, authentication-zero, or something else? These are big decisions that then might affect other things like authorization, OAuth, PassKey, etc.

    And that's authentication & authorization which are a relatively well-understood and maintained area, but other areas might have totally unmaintained gems that might have issues with recent versions of Rails, or native module compilation issues with more recent versions of operating systems, etc.

    A lot of Rails guidance on blog posts and StackOverflow might be outdated.

    This problem is not unique to Rails. I still think Rails is great and relatively vibrant. Nevertheless, I suggest being very wary of Rails guides, blog posts, and StackOverflow answers that are more than 1 year old and doing a careful study and inventory of gems before deciding to use them and reviewing their relative recent usage and activity.

    In Rails 7.2, this option changes from query_constraints to foreign_keys. Besides the parameter name change, some interesting discussions are underway about plans to repurpose the original query_constraints name by freeing it up.
