Notes

• Science History Institute

  • Rails 6.1 and Ruby 3.0

    • Trying to update to Ruby 3.1

    • browse-everything doesn’t work with Ruby 3.1

    • browse-everything does work with Ruby 3.0 (doesn’t pass CircleCI test suite)

    • Looking to update Rails 7.x and Rails 6.x

  • Rails 6.0 does work with Ruby 3.0

• questioning_authority

  • Ruby 2.5 is stated as the latest release

  • Tested with 2.7 and Rails 6.1, documentation

    • Eddie might work with qa

  • Getting tests passing Ruby 3.0 and Ruby 3.1

  • If time left, look to have qa working with Rails 7.0 (if there is time)

• James: Needs to confirm that dropping Ruby releases is acceptable from Heather

  • Science History team will not aim to drop support for any releases (unless it is required or cannot be avoided)

• browse_everything

  • 2.5 is the earliest in the test

  • 2.7 and Rails 6.0 for CircleCI

  • Rails 6.1 has not been tested, but it does get used with sprockets for the Science History team

  • Intent is to keep sprockets for Rails 6.1 and Rails 7.0

  • engine_cart can be avoided, Rails test dummy app. might be used

  • Keep doing sprockets, at one point Blacklight was using this https://github.com/projectblacklight/blacklight/issues/2689

    • Documenting the sprockets configuration/initializer file updates to be edited manually

    • By avoiding the automated changes with sprockets, this also permits one to avoid the usage of engine_cart

    •  

• When might the work be undertaken?

  • Next week or the week after

• Availability for James to review PRs

  • Week of July 18th, James will have limited availability, but otherwise should be available
