v7.0.0.rc1

• Enhancement: Add ActiveJob Continuations support (Rails 8.1+)

  • Implements stopping? method in ActiveJob adapters to signal graceful shutdown
  • Enables jobs to checkpoint progress and resume after interruption
  • Handles past timestamps correctly (SQS treats negative delays as immediate delivery)
  • Tracks shutdown state in Launcher via stopping? flag
  • Leverages existing Shoryuken shutdown lifecycle (stop/stop! methods)
  • Includes comprehensive integration tests with continuable jobs
  • See Rails PR #55127 for more details on ActiveJob Continuations

• Breaking: Remove support for Rails versions older than 7.2

  • Rails 7.0 and 7.1 have reached end-of-life and are no longer supported

• Enhancement: Replace Concurrent::AtomicFixnum with pure Ruby AtomicCounter

  • Removes external dependency on concurrent-ruby for atomic fixnum operations
  • Introduces Shoryuken::Helpers::AtomicCounter as a thread-safe alternative using Mutex
  • Reduces gem footprint while maintaining full functionality

• Enhancement: Replace Concurrent::AtomicBoolean with pure Ruby AtomicBoolean

  • Removes external dependency on concurrent-ruby for atomic boolean operations
  • Introduces Shoryuken::Helpers::AtomicBoolean extending AtomicCounter
  • Further reduces gem footprint while maintaining full functionality

• Enhancement: Replace Concurrent::Hash with pure Ruby AtomicHash

  • Removes external dependency on concurrent-ruby for hash operations
  • Introduces Shoryuken::Helpers::AtomicHash with mutex-protected writes and concurrent reads
  • Ensures JRuby compatibility while maintaining high performance for read-heavy workloads
