  Stéphane Robino

• The Action Cable client now supports subprotocols to allow passing arbitrary data to the server.

  const consumer = ActionCable.createConsumer()
  
  consumer.addSubProtocol('custom-protocol')
  
  consumer.connect()

• Redis pub/sub adapter now automatically reconnects when Redis connection is lost.

  Vladimir Dementyev

• The connected() callback can now take a {reconnected} parameter to differentiate connections from reconnections.

  import consumer from "./consumer"
  
  consumer.subscriptions.create("ExampleChannel", {
    connected({reconnected}) {
      if (reconnected) {
        ...
      } else {
        ...
      }
    }
  })

• The Redis adapter is now compatible with redis-rb 5.0

  Compatibility with redis-rb 3.x was dropped.

  Jean Boussier

• The Action Cable server is now mounted with anchor: true.

  This means that routes that also start with /cable will no longer clash with Action Cable.

  Alex Ghiculescu

• ActionCable.server.remote_connections.where(...).disconnect now sends disconnect message before closing the connection with the reconnection strategy specified (defaults to true).

  Vladimir Dementyev

• Added command callbacks to ActionCable::Connection::Base.

  Now you can define before_command, after_command, and around_command to be invoked before, after or around any command received by a client respectively.
