I am updating a Ruby 1.8.7/Rails 2.3 project to Ruby 1.9.3/Rails 3.2. The cassettes that are being recorded now aren't human readable? Anything I may have done wrong?
They look like this:
encoding: ASCII-8BIT
string: !binary |-

You're not doing anything wrong. Tenderlove changed psych a while back to dump strings tagged as ASCII-8BIT (e.g. binary) encoding as Base64-encoded data:
This was actually a fix for an issue a VCR user had:
Anyhow, even though it produces output that is not human readable, I think it's the correct behavior of Psych to treat strings tagged as binary as binary, and base64 encoding is the proper way to ensure binary data roundtrips correctly.
As the `encoding: ASCII-8BIT` bit of the cassette shows, the HTTP client library you are using is tagging the response body as ASCII-8BIT. If there is a response header that indicates a different encoding then this may be a bug in the HTTP client library, as it should probably tag the response body string with the encoding if the headers provide one.
If you want the cassettes to be human readable, the simplest fix is to use a different serializer. The built-in JSON serializer is simple to use, or you can easily write your own.
HTH,
Myron

Wow, I didn't realize there was a built-in JSON serializer... does it
avoid having all those responses saved as base64 in the serialized VCR
cassette?
If so, perhaps it should be documented more prominently somewhere... or
perhaps the JSON serializer should even be made default?
In general, it is often _appropriate_ for a response to be tagged
'binary' at the HTTP transport layer that VCR intervenes in -- but it
sure makes it inconvenient to have all that base64 in the cassettes, the
human readability of the cassettes used to be a huge advantage.

Are these two places not prominent enough?
I'm not convinced the JSON serializer should be made the default. It dumps a long, single-line string that's not that human readable (given the lack of linebreaks and indentation). Making it the default would break test suites out in the wild.

Ah, okay, thanks. No idea if I missed those places before, or if they
have been added since I first looked at those docs.
Ah, yeah, if the JSON one isn't human-readable either, then it's clearly
no improvement as the default.
Man, I wish there was a way to return to human readable cassettes even
for 'binary' tagged strings, but I guess it's just not to be. I really
miss having human-readable responses in my cassettes though.

You can always write your own serializer, and have it be pretty json formatted or whatever. The serializer is three methods (file_extension, serialize, deserialize) and then it's one config option to use it.

I guess I should try to understand why the YAML serializer had to start
base64 encoding first (and why the JSON serializer somehow gets away
without it, without having the same problems).
If I did figure out a way to write a serializer that was reliable
without base64 encoding, as well as human readable -- is that something
you would be interested in being a part of VCR?

Thanks!
