This commit makes a few changes to improve boot time in development environments. It will have no effect on production boot times.
- Skip the SchemaCache warmup. In development mode, the SchemaCache is refreshed every time there is a code change, so warmup is of limited use.
- Skip warming up PrettyText. This adds ~2s to each web worker's boot time. The vast majority of requests do not use PrettyText, so it is more efficient to defer its warmup until it's needed
- Skip the intentional 1 second pause during Unicorn worker forking. The comment (which also exists in Unicorn's documentation) suggests this works around a Unix signal handling bug, but I haven't been able to locate any more information. Skipping it in dev will significantly speed up boot. If we start to see issues, we can revert this change.
On my machine, this improves `/bin/unicorn` boot time from >10s to ~4s
In development we regularly restart/reload Rails, which wipes out the schema cache. This then has to be regenerated using DDL queries on the database.
Instead, we can make use of the `rake db:schema:cache:dump` command. This will dump the schema cache to a YAML file, and then load it when needed. This is significantly faster than rebuilding the cache from DDL queries every time.
On every request, Rails checks to see whether any ruby code has been changed on the filesystem. The default FileUpdateChecker does this by iterating over every file on the autoload_paths and comparing its modified-time.
In Discourse, our autoload path of `/app` includes the `/app/assets` directory, and therefore thousands of non-ruby files (e.g. node_modules). This makes the `Dir["/app"]` call very slow (>100ms in my case). On my machine, every Rails-handled request spends around 150-200ms in the FileUpdateChecker. This commit introduces a couple of changes to completely eliminate this wasted time:
- The `/app/assets` directory is excluded from the file watchers. For me, this cut the time spent in the file_watcher to around 50-100ms
- Switches our development config to use the `EventedFileUpdateChecker`, which makes use of the `listen` gem to subscribe to os-specific notifications of changes. This completely removes the `FileUpdateChecker` from the critical path
On my machine, topic_list requests now return in around 80ms (previously >200ms). Live code reload still works as it did before
This commit allows site admins to run theme tests in production via a new `/theme-qunit` route. When you visit `/theme-qunit`, you'll see a list of the themes/components installed on your site that have tests, and from there you can select a theme or component that you run its tests.
We also have a new rake task `themes:install_and_test` that can be used to install a list of themes/components on a temporary database and run the tests of the themes/components that are installed. This rake task can be useful when upgrading/deploying a Discourse instance to make sure that the installed themes/components are compatible with the new Discourse version being deployed, and if the tests fail you can abort the build/deploy process so you don't end up with a broken site.
This setting allows admin to de/activate automatic trimming of incoming email.
There are instances where it does wonders in trimming all the garbage content and other
instances where it's so bad that it trims the most important part of the email.
FIX: don't remove hidden content using the style attribute when converting HTML to Markdown.
The regexp used was doing more harm than good. It was way too broad.
FIX: properly elide signatures from emails sent with Front App.
This is fairly safe as Front App nicely identifies signatures in the HTML part.
If the "use_site_small_logo_as_system_avatar" setting is enabled, the site's small logo is displayed as the selected option by the avatar-selector. Choosing a different avatar disables the setting.
When the admin creates a new custom field they can specify if that field should be searchable or not.
That setting is taken into consideration for quick search results.
Adds a webhook to notify when a reviewable score is updated.
This is different from created or status changed as additional flags can
roll in and update the score without updating status. Useful for applications
looking to integrate in with Discourse's scores

This filter hides reviewables with a score lower than the "reviewable_low_priority_threshold" setting. We only use reviewables that already met this threshold to calculate the Medium and High priority filters.
The old share modal used to host both share and invite functionality,
under two tabs. The new "Share Topic" modal can be used only for
sharing, but has a link to the invite modal.
Among the sharing methods, there is also "Notify" which points out
that existing users will simply be notified (this was not clear
before). Staff members can notify as many users as they want, but
regular users are restricted to one at a time, no more than
max_topic_invitations_per_day. The user will not receive another
notification if they have been notified of the same topic in past hour.
The "Create Invite" modal also suffered some changes: the two radio
boxes for selecting the type (invite or email) have been replaced by a
single checkbox (is email?) and then the two labels about emails have
been replaced by a single one, some fields were reordered and the
advanced options toggle was moved to the bottom right of the modal.
Not all videos can be rendered everywhere because some browser may be
missing some codecs. This commit adds a notice on top of video to let
the user know about it.
The "last custom date and time" shortcut for the topic timer and
bookmarks could get into a state where it had an Invalid Date if
the user opened the topic timer modal, clicked Custom Date and then
closed the modal without making changes. This has been fixed, the
last custom date + time will no longer be set in this case and if
somehow the last custom date + time is invalid that option will not
show.
Also improve the wording from just "Last" to "Last custom datetime"
It's important that we don't perform pg_dumps against databases
running behind pgbouncer.
We had an old monkey-patch to prevent this, but following some [recent
internal rails refactoring](5488686851),
the patch no longer works. Instead, we can use the official
`config.active_record.dump_schema_after_migration` option.
Setting this to false in production is recommended by Rails, and is the
default for newly generated Rails applications.
Previously watched words ignored topic titles when applying auto tagging rules.
Also copy has been improved to reflect how the system behaves.
The text hints that we are only watching first post now
* FEATURE: Review every post using the review queue.
If the `review_every_post` setting is enabled, posts created and edited by regular uses are sent to the review queue so staff can review them. We'll skip PMs and posts created or edited by TL4 or staff users.
Staff can choose to:
- Approve the post (nothing happens)
- Approve and restore the post (if deleted)
- Approve and unhide the post (if hidden)
- Reject and delete it
- Reject and keep deleted (if deleted)
- Reject and suspend the user
- Reject and silence the user
* Update config/locales/server.en.yml

There is a category setting that enforces 1 or more tags must be added to a topic from a specific tag group before creating it. This validation was not being run before the topic was being sent to a review queue for categories that have that setting enabled.
There was an existing validation in `TopicCreator` but it was not correct; it was only validating when the tags did _not_ exist and also only happened on `create`. I now run the validation in `TopicCreator.valid?`
I also improved the error message shown to the user when they have not added the tags required (showing the tag names from the tag group), and changed the composer tag selector to not show "optional" if there are N tags required from a certain group.
The server used to respond with a generic 'error, contact admin' message
which did not offer any hint what the error was. This happened even when
the error could be easily corrected by the user (for example, if they
chose a very common password).
This PR adds a new category setting which is a column in the `categories` table, `allow_unlimited_owner_edits_on_first_post`.
What this does is:
* Inside the `can_edit_post?` method of `PostGuardian`, if the current user editing a post is the owner of the post, it is the first post, and the topic's category has `allow_unlimited_owner_edits_on_first_post`, then we bypass the check for `LimitedEdit#edit_time_limit_expired?` on that post.
* Also, similar to wiki topics, in `PostActionNotifier#after_create_post_revision` we send a notification to all users watching a topic when the OP is edited in a topic with the category setting `allow_unlimited_owner_edits_on_first_post` enabled.
This is useful for forums where there is a Marketplace or similar category, where topics are created and then updated indefinitely by the OP rather than the OP making new topics or additional replies. In a way this acts similar to a wiki that only one person can edit.
* Fixes the z-index of the prompt so it is behind the quick access panels
* Adds a dismiss `X` button (made sure the click target of this was quite big)
* Change structure of HTML to address template lint issues
* Fix aria-hidden not returning true/false
* Reload current page instead of navigating to / when clicking on the prompt message
This commit allows themes and theme components to have QUnit tests. To add tests to your theme/component, create a top-level directory in your theme and name it `test`, and Discourse will save all the files in that directory (and its sub-directories) as "tests files" in the database. While tests files/directories are not required to be organized in a specific way, we recommend that you follow Discourse core's tests [structure](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/tree/master/app/assets/javascripts/discourse/tests).
Writing theme tests should be identical to writing plugins or core tests; all the `import` statements and APIs that you see in core (or plugins) to define/setup tests should just work in themes.
You do need a working Discourse install to run theme tests, and you have 2 ways to run theme tests:
* In the browser at the `/qunit` route. `/qunit` will run tests of all active themes/components as well as core and plugins. The `/qunit` now accepts a `theme_name` or `theme_url` params that you can use to run tests of a specific theme/component like so: `/qunit?theme_name=<your_theme_name>`.
* In the command line using the `themes:qunit` rake task. This take is meant to run tests of a single theme/component so you need to provide it with a theme name or URL like so: `bundle exec rake themes:qunit[name=<theme_name>]` or `bundle exec rake themes:qunit[url=<theme_url>]`.
There are some refactors to how Discourse processes JavaScript that comes with themes/components, and these refactors may break your JS customizations; see https://meta.discourse.org/t/upcoming-core-changes-that-may-break-some-themes-components-april-12/186252?u=osama for details on how you can check if your themes/components are affected and what you need to do to fix them.
This commit also improves theme error handling in Discourse. We will now be able to catch errors that occur when theme initializers are run and prevent them from breaking the site and other themes/components.
We introduced a cap on the number of bookmarks the user can add in be145ccf2f. However this has caused unintended side effects; when the `jobs/scheduled/bookmark_reminder_notifications.rb` runs we get this error for users who already had more bookmarks than the limit:
> Job exception: Validation failed: Sorry, you have too many bookmarks, visit #{url}/my/activity/bookmarks to remove some.
This is because the `clear_reminder!` call was triggering a bookmark validation, which raised an error because the user already had to many, holding up other reminders.
This PR also adds `max_bookmarks_per_user` hidden site setting (default 2000). This replaces the BOOKMARK_LIMIT const so we can raise it for certain sites.
