Currently when generating a onebox for Discourse topics, some important
context is missing such as categories and tags.
This patch addresses this issue by introducing a new onebox engine
dedicated to display this information when available. Indeed to get this
new information, categories and tags are exposed in the topic metadata
as opengraph tags.
The `TopicView#bookmarks` method is called by `TopicViewSerializer` and `PostSerializer`
so we want to avoid running a meaningless query when user is not
present.
This commit removes 3 redundant DB queries when loading posts.
1. `@posts` will eventually have to be loaded so we can avoid two
additional queries.
2. No need to preload topic association of posts as we're already
dealing with a fixed topic in `TopicView`.
Note that we don't have a database table and a model for post mentions yet, and I decided to implement it without adding one to avoid heavy data migrations. Still, we may want to add such a model later, that would be convenient, we have such a model for mentions in chat.
Note that status appears on all mentions on all posts in a topic except of the case when you just posted a new post, and it appeared on the bottom of the topic. On such posts, status won't be shown immediately for now (you'll need to reload the page to see the status). I'll take care of it in one of the following PRs.
This commit migrates all bookmarks to be polymorphic (using the
bookmarkable_id and bookmarkable_type) columns. It also deletes
all the old code guarded behind the use_polymorphic_bookmarks setting
and changes that setting to true for all sites and by default for
the sake of plugins.
No data is deleted in the migrations, the old post_id and for_topic
columns for bookmarks will be dropped later on.
This commit introduces a new use_polymorphic_bookmarks site setting
that is default false and hidden, that will be used to help continuous
development of polymorphic bookmarks. This setting **should not** be
enabled anywhere in production yet, it is purely for local development.
This commit uses the setting to enable create/update/delete actions
for polymorphic bookmarks on the server and client side. The bookmark
interactions on topics/posts are all usable. Listing, searching,
sending bookmark reminders, and other edge cases will be handled
in subsequent PRs.
Comprehensive UI tests will be added in the final PR -- we already
have them for regular bookmarks, so it will just be a matter of
changing them to be for polymorphic bookmarks.
* FEATURE: use canonical links in posts.rss feed
Previously we used non canonical links in posts.rss
These links get crawled frequently by crawlers when discovering new
content forcing crawlers to hop to non canonical pages just to end up
visiting canonical pages
This uses up expensive crawl time and adds load on Discourse sites
Old links were of the form:
`https://DOMAIN/t/SLUG/43/21`
New links are of the form
`https://DOMAIN/t/SLUG/43?page=2#post_21`
This also adds a post_id identified element to crawler view that was
missing.
Note, to avoid very expensive N+1 queries required to figure out the
page a post is on during rss generation, we cache that information.
There is a smart "cache breaker" which ensures worst case scenario is
a "page drift" - meaning we would publicize a post is on page 11 when
it is actually on page 10 due to post deletions. Cache holds for up to
12 hours.
Change only impacts public post RSS feeds (`/posts.rss`)
* DEV: Show only top level replies
Adds a new query param to the topic view so that we can filter out posts
that aren't top level replies. If a post is a reply to another post
instead of the original topic post we should not include it in the
response if the `filter_top_level_replies` query param is present.
* add rspec test
Currently we display pending posts in topics (both for author and staff
members) but the feature is only enabled when there’s an enabled global site
setting related to moderation.
This patch allows to have the same behavior for a site where there’s
nothing enabled globally but where a moderated category exists. So when
browsing a topic of a moderated category, the presence of pending posts
will be checked whereas nothing will happen in a normal category.
This new app event will fire whenever a bookmark is created,
edited, or deleted for a post or topic, and replaces these old
app events which had inconsistent APIs:
* page:bookmark-post-toggled
* topic:bookmark-toggled
When the event is triggered, the arguments are in this order:
1. bookmark - The bookmark record created or changed. Will be null
if the bookmark was deleted.
2. target - Object with target (post or topic) and targetId (post ID
or topic ID)
Instead of leaking ordering of the posts all around the class, we
centralize it in a method making the code easier to understand. In a
future PR, we will also introduce a plugin API to allow custom ordering
and the change in this commit helps to faciliate that.
The method was only used for mega topics but it was redundant as the
first post can be determined from using the condition where
`Post#post_number` equal to one.
Allows creating a bookmark with the `for_topic` flag introduced in d1d2298a4c set to true. This happens when clicking on the Bookmark button in the topic footer when no other posts are bookmarked. In a later PR, when clicking on these topic-level bookmarks the user will be taken to the last unread post in the topic, not the OP. Only the OP can have a topic level bookmark, and users can also make a post-level bookmark on the OP of the topic.
I had to do some pretty heavy refactors because most of the bookmark code in the JS topics controller was centred around instances of Post JS models, but the topic level bookmark is not centred around a post. Some refactors were just for readability as well.
Also removes some missed reminderType code from the purge in 41e19adb0d
We don't need no stinkin' denormalization! This commit ignores
the topic_id column on bookmarks, to be deleted at a later date.
We don't really need this column and it's better to rely on the
post.topic_id as the canonical topic_id for bookmarks, then we
don't need to remember to update both columns if the bookmarked
post moves to another topic.
In order to include the new/unread count in the browse more message
under suggested topics, a couple of technical changes have to be made.
1. `PrivateMessageTopicTrackingState` is now auto-injected which is
similar to how it is done for `TopicTrackingState`. This is done so
we don't have to attempt to pass the `PrivateMessageTopicTrackingState`
object multiple levels down into the suggested-topics component. While
the object is auto-injected, we only fetch the initial state and start
tracking when the relevant private messages routes has been hit and only
when a private message's suggested topics is loaded. This is
done as we do not want to add the extra overhead of fetching the inital
state to all page loads but instead wait till the private messages
routes are hit.
2. Previously, we would stop tracking once the `user-private-messages`
route has been deactivated. However, that is not ideal since
navigating out of the route and back means we send an API call to the
server each time. Since `PrivateMessageTopicTrackingState` is kept in
sync cheaply via messageBus, we can just continue to track the state
even if the user has navigated away from the relevant stages.
The date shown in topic timeline was one day later if the post at that
position was made near midnight. This happened because the days number
was rounded down.
This TODO comment has existed for 8 years. Sort must be working just
fine or we would have prioritized fixing it.
Removing this comment as a tiny step toward keeping our codebase nice
and tidy.
We changed (https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/13407) behaviour of the topic level bookmark button recently. That PR made the button be opening the edit bookmark modal when there is only one bookmark on the topic instead of just removing that bookmark as it was before.
This PR fixes the next problems that weren't taken into account in the previous PR:
1. Everything should work fine even on very big topics when a bookmarked post is unloaded from the post stream. I've added code that loads the post we need and makes everything work as expected
2. When at least one bookmark on the topic has a reminder, we should always be showing the icon with a clock on the topic level bookmark button
3. We should show correct tooltips for the topic level bookmark button
In #12841, we started setting the ReviewableQueuedPost's target and topic after approving it instead of storing them in the payload. As a result, the reviewable_counts query started to include queued posts.
When a category is set to require approval, every post has an associated reviewable. Pointing that each post has an associated queued post is not necessary in this case, so I added a WHERE clause to skip them.
* FIX: flaky specs after topic view custom filters
When ensuring TopicView class variables return to the original state it should use empty Hash instead of empty Array. That

* FIX: convert to string for topic view custom filter
* FEATURE - allow category group moderators to delete topics
* Allow individual posts to be deleted
* DEV - refactor for new `can_moderate_topic?` method
On forums with a large amount of posts when a user had a bookmark in the topic, PostgreSQL was using an inefficient query plan to fetch the first post of the topic. When running this ActiveRecord query:
```
topic.posts.with_deleted.where(post_number: 1).first
```
The following query plan was produced:
```
Limit (cost=0.43..583.49 rows=1 width=891) (actual time=3850.515..3850.515 rows=1 loops=1)
-> Index Scan using posts_pkey on posts (cost=0.43..391231.51 rows=671 width=891) (actual time=3850.514..3850.514
rows=1 loops=1)
Filter: ((topic_id = 160918) AND (post_number = 1))
Rows Removed by Filter: 2274520
Planning time: 0.200 ms
Execution time: 3850.559 ms
(6 rows)
```
The issue here is the combination of ORDER BY and LIMIT causing the ineficcient Index Scan using posts_pkey on posts to be used. When we correct the AR call to this:
```
topic.posts.with_deleted.find_by(post_number: 1)
```
We end up with a query that still has a LIMIT but no ORDER BY, which in turn creates a much more efficient query plan:
```
Limit (cost=0.43..1.44 rows=1 width=891) (actual time=0.033..0.034 rows=1 loops=1)
-> Index Scan using index_posts_on_topic_id_and_post_number on posts (cost=0.43..678.82 rows=671 width=891) (actua
l time=0.033..0.033 rows=1 loops=1)
Index Cond: ((topic_id = 160918) AND (post_number = 1))
Planning time: 0.167 ms
Execution time: 0.072 ms
(5 rows)
```
This query plan uses the correct index, `Index Scan using index_posts_on_topic_id_and_post_number on posts`. Note that this is only a problem on forums with a larger amount of posts; tiny forums would not notice the difference. On large forums a query for a topic that takes 1s without a bookmark can take 8-30 seconds, and even end up with 502 errors from nginx.
This PR ensures that new bookmarks cannot be created for deleted posts and topics, and also makes sure that if a bookmark was created and then the topic deleted that the show topic page does not error from trying to retrieve the bookmark reminder at.
When a tab is open but left unattended for a while, the red, green, and blue
pills tend to go out of sync.
So whevener we open the notifications menu, we sync up the notification count
(eg. blue and green pills) with the server.
However, the reviewable count (eg. the red pill) is not a notification and
is located in the hamburger menu. This commit adds a new route on the server
side to retrieve the reviewable count for the current user and a ping
(refreshReviewableCount) from the client side to sync the reviewable count
whenever they open the hamburger menu.
REFACTOR: I also refactored the hamburger-menu widget code to prevent repetitive uses
of "this.".
PERF: I improved the performance of the 'notify_reviewable' job by doing only 1 query
to the database to retrieve all the pending reviewables and then tallying based on the
various rights.
The assign plugin is one of two situations where a post can be both a whisper and a small-action. Check the action_code field to filter out small-actions.
