Previously, `/u/by-external/{id}` would only work for 'Discourse SSO' systems. This commit adds a new 'provider' parameter to the URL: `/u/by-external/{provider}/{id}`
This is compatible with all auth methods which have migrated to the 'ManagedAuthenticator' pattern. That includes all core providers, and also popular plugins such as discourse-oauth2-basic and discourse-openid-connect.
The new route is admin-only, since some authenticators use sensitive information like email addresses as the external id.
This reverts commit e3de45359f.
We need to improve out strategy by adding a cache breaker with this change ... some assets on CDNs and clients may have incorrect CORS headers which can cause stuff to break.
DEV: Replace instances of Discourse.base_uri with Discourse.base_path
This is clearer because the base_uri is actually just a path prefix. This continues the work started in 555f467.
Error messages for exceeded rate limits and invalid parameters always used the English locale instead of the default locale or the current user's locale.
This allows administrators to stop automatic redirect to an external authenticator. It only takes effect when there is a single authentication method, and the site is login_required
There are two problems I'm trying to tackle here.
1. The site json is cached for anonymous users so readonly mode can be
cached for up to 30 minutes which makes it confusing.
2. We've already checked for readonly mode in the controller so having
to check for readonly mode again in `SiteSerializer` is adding an extra
Redis query on every request.
In some restricted setups all JS payloads need tight control.
This setting bans admins from making changes to JS on the site and
requires all themes be whitelisted to be used.
There are edge cases we still need to work through in this mode
hence this is still not supported in production and experimental.
Use an example like this to enable:
`DISCOURSE_WHITELISTED_THEME_REPOS="https://repo.com/repo.git,https://repo.com/repo2.git"`
By default this feature is not enabled and no changes are made.
One exception is that default theme id was missing a security check
this was added for correctness.
* FIX: add X-Robots-Tag header for check_xhr-covered GET actions, too
see https://meta.discourse.org/t/missing-x-robots-tag/152593/3 for context
* test: a spec making sure X-Robots-Tag header is present when needed
/groups path responds to anonymous requests and doesn't skip `check_xhr` method, so we can use it here.
Google insists on indexing pages so it can figure out if they
can be removed from the index.
see: https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/6332384?hl=en
This change ensures the we have special behavior for Googlebot
where we allow indexing, but block the actual indexing via
X-Robots-Tag
Expand SiteSetting.allow_index_in_robots_txt so it also adds a
noindex header if set to false.
This makes sure that nothing is indexed even if it somehow reaches
Google.
In development, if the ApplicationController is reloaded, then, previous
to this commit we were emitting an instance of the previous RenderEmpty
class, but rescuing from the reloaded instance.
Looking up RenderEmpty by its fully qualified name fixes this.
If for some reason an URL was create in this format:
```
?slug[]=foo&slug[]=bar
```
This would have create an exception of this kind:
```
NoMethodError (undefined method `tr' for ["foo", "bar"]:Array
Did you mean? try)
```
We like to stay as close as possible to latest with rubocop cause the cops
get better.
This update required some code changes, specifically the default is to avoid
explicit returns where implicit is done
Also this renames a few rules
- Show old and new email address during the process
- Ensure correct user is logged on when attempting to make email changes
- Support reloading a page during the email reset process without resubmit
of form
- Improve tests
- Fixed issue where redirect back to site was not linking correctly in
subfolder setups
Internal refactor of single action into 4 distinct actions that are simpler
to reason about.
This also removes the step that logs on an account after you confirm an
email change, since it is no longer needed which leaves us with safer
internals.
This left me no choice but to amend translations cause the old route was
removed.
This brings the behavior in line with native Discourse SSO. If login is required, and a user tries to visit the forum, they will be directed straight to the external login page without requiring any clicks.
Anonymous users are only possible if allow_anonymous_posting is true,
which means that 'user.is_anonymous' check implies that
allow_anonymous_posting is true.
If the setting is turned on, then the user will receive information
about the subject: if it was deleted or requires some special access to
a group (only if the group is public). Otherwise, the user will receive
a generic #404 error message. For now, this change affects only the
topics and categories controller.
This commit also tries to refactor some of the code related to error
handling. To make error pages more consistent (design-wise), the actual
error page will be rendered server-side.
Using popups is becoming increasingly rare. Full page redirects are already used on mobile, and for some providers. This commit removes all logic related to popup authentication, leaving only the full page redirect method.
For more info, see https://meta.discourse.org/t/do-we-need-popups-for-login/127988
Zeitwerk simplifies working with dependencies in dev and makes it easier reloading class chains.
We no longer need to use Rails "require_dependency" anywhere and instead can just use standard
Ruby patterns to require files.
This is a far reaching change and we expect some followups here.
In development, we track the last requested theme id, and use that to refresh the correct stylesheet targets. The after_action hook runs on every request, but the preview_theme_id parameter is only sent on the initial HTML request. This commit ensures we only fetch the development theme_id on HTML requests
This can cause unbound CPU usage in some cases, and excessive logging in other cases. This commit moves redis readonly information into the local process, but maintains the DistributedCache for postgres readonly state.
