Set enqueue_after_transaction_commit to true and don't allow changing it
See the discussion in rails/rails#52659.
Adapters should set their own behaviour without making users choose. If
users want to choose, they can just use Active Job's configuration.
Besides, we're changing the value of this to `true` to make it harder
for people to run into trouble in the future when switching adapters.

## Jobs and transactional integrity
323
+
:warning: Having your jobs in the same ACID-compliant database as your application data enables a powerful yet sharp tool: taking advantage of transactional integrity to ensure some action in your app is not committed unless your job is also committed and viceversa, and ensuring that your job won't be enqueued until the transaction within which you're enqueing it is committed. This can be very powerful and useful, but it can also backfire if you base some of your logic on this behaviour, and in the future, you move to another active job backend, or if you simply move Solid Queue to its own database, and suddenly the behaviour changes under you.
324
+
325
+
Because this can be quite tricky and many people shouldn't need to worry about it, by default Solid Queue is configured in a different database as the main app, **job enqueuing is deferred until any ongoing transaction is committed** thanks to Active Job's built-in capability to do this. This means that even if you run Solid Queue in the same DB as your app, you won't be taking advantage of this transactional integrity.
326
+
327
+
If you prefer to change this, you can set [`config.active_job.enqueue_after_transaction_commit`](https://edgeguides.rubyonrails.org/configuring.html#config-active-job-enqueue-after-transaction-commit) to `never`. You can also set this on a per-job basis.
328
+
329
+
If you set that to `never` but still want to make sure you're not inadvertently on transactional integrity, you can make sure that:
330
+
- Your jobs relying on specific data are always enqueued on [`after_commit` callbacks](https://guides.rubyonrails.org/active_record_callbacks.html#after-commit-and-after-rollback) or otherwise from a place where you're certain that whatever data the job will use has been committed to the database before the job is enqueued.
331
+
- Or, you configure a different database for Solid Queue, even if it's the same as your app, ensuring that a different connection on the thread handling requests or running jobs for your app will be used to enqueue jobs. For example:
Solid Queue supports defining recurring tasks that run at specific times in the future, on a regular basis like cron jobs. These are managed by the scheduler process and are defined in their own configuration file. By default, the file is located in `config/recurring.yml`, but you can set a different path using the environment variable `SOLID_QUEUE_RECURRING_SCHEDULE` or by using the `--recurring_schedule_file` option with `bin/jobs`, like this:
