This commit introduces a few experimental changes to the New topics list and "Everything" link in the sidebar:
1. Make the New topics list include unread topics
2. Make the Everything section in the sidebar link to the New topics list (`/new`)
3. Remove "unread" or "new" text next to the count and keep the count
4. The count is a sum of new and unread topics counts
All of these of changes are behind an off-by-default feature flag. I've not written extensive tests for these changes because they're highly experimental.
Internal topic: t/77234.
When invoking e.g. `can_see?(Foo.new)`, the guardian checks if there's a method `#can_see_foo?` defined and if so uses that to determine whether the user can see it or not.
When such a method is not defined, the guardian currently returns `true`, but it is probably a better call (pun intended) to make it "safe by default" and return `false` instead. I.e. if you can't explicitly see it, you can't see it at all.
This change makes the change to `Guardian#can_see?` to fall back to `false` if no visibility check method is defined.
For `#can_see_user?` and `#can_see_tag?` we don't have any particular logic that prevents viewing. We previously relied on the implicit `true` value, but since that's now change to `false`, I have explicitly implemented these two methods in `UserGuardian` and `TagGuardian` modules. If in the future we want to add some logic for it, this would be the place.
To be clear, **the behaviour remains the same**, but the `true` value is now explicit rather than implicit.
We were only supporting the main name of each HighlightJS language. So, by default, you could not use `js` or `jsx` to highlight Javascript, given they are aliases for `javascript`.
This PR adds a list of aliases as a constant to core (built via a rake task), and then checks against the `highlighted_languages` site settings plus the list of aliases when processing a code block.
This commit 57caf08e13 broke
`bin/turbo_rspec` timing recording via `TurboTests::Runner`,
because we changed to using all `spec/*` folders except
`spec/system` as default for the runner, rather than
the old `['spec']` array, which is what `TurboTests::Runner`
was relying on to determine whether to record test run
time with `ParallelTests::RSpec::RuntimeLogger`.
Instead, we can just pass a new `use_runtime_info` boolean to the
runner class and use it when running against the default set of
spec files using `bin/turbo_rspec` and the turbo rspec rake task.
The current default timeout is hardcoded to 2 seconds which is proving
too low for certain cases, and resulting in sporadic timeouts due to slow DNS queries.
As of ba3f62f576, handlebars templates are colocated with js files so the path to hbs templates referenced by this rake task is no longer valid. This commit fixes the path to hbs templates and updates a couple of files that are generated by the rake task.
We call `post.update_uploads_secure_status` in both
`PostCreator` and `PostRevisor`. Only the former was checking
if `SiteSetting.secure_uploads?` was enabled, but the latter
was not. There is no need to enqueue the job
`UpdatePostUploadsSecureStatus` if secure_uploads is not
enabled for the site.
- Reduce duplication of terms in post index from unlimited to 6. This will
result in reduced index size and reduced weighting for posts containing
a huge amount of duplicate terms. (Eg: a post containing "sam sam sam sam
sam sam sam sam", will index as "sam sam sam sam sam sam", only including
the word up to 6 times.) This corrects a flaw where title weighting could
be ignored.
- Prioritize exact matches of words in titles. Our search always performs
a prefix match. However we want to give special weight to exact title matches
meaning that a search for "sum" will find topics such as "the sum of us" vs
"summer in spring".
- Pick up fixes to our search algorithm which are missing from old indexes.
Specifically pick up the fix that indexes URLs properly. (`https://happy.com`
was stemmed to `happi` in keywords and then was not searchable)

Indexing will take a while and work in batches, in the background.
* Add username and name_or_username variables to SystemMessage defaults
* Allow username and name variables on welcome_user email template overrides
* Satisfy linting
* Add test
This commit adds backend support for a new topics list that combines both the current unread and new topics lists. We're going to experiment with this new list (name TBD) internally and decide if this feature is something that we want to fully build.
Internal topic: t/77234.
Currently, clicking on the unsubscribe link with a `key` associated with a
deleted topic results in an HTTP 500 response.
This change fixes that by skipping any attempt to run topic related flow if topic
isn't present.
* FIX: do not notify admins on suppressed categories
Avoid notifying admins on categories where they are not explicitly members
in cases where SiteSetting.suppress_secured_categories_from_admin is
enabled.
This helps keep notification stream clean and avoids admins mistakenly
being invited to discussions that should be suppressed
This is a combined work of Martin Brennan, Loïc Guitaut, and Joffrey Jaffeux.

This commit implements a base service object when working in chat. The documentation is available at https://discourse.github.io/discourse/chat/backend/Chat/Service.html
Generating documentation has been made as part of this commit with a bigger goal in mind of generally making it easier to dive into the chat project.
Working with services generally involves 3 parts:
- The service object itself, which is a series of steps where few of them are specialized (model, transaction, policy)
```ruby
class UpdateAge
include Chat::Service::Base
model :user, :fetch_user
policy :can_see_user
contract
step :update_age
class Contract
attribute :age, :integer
end
def fetch_user(user_id:, **)
User.find_by(id: user_id)
end
def can_see_user(guardian:, **)
guardian.can_see_user(user)
end
def update_age(age:, **)
user.update!(age: age)
end
end
```
- The `with_service` controller helper, handling success and failure of the service within a service and making easy to return proper response to it from the controller
```ruby
def update
with_service(UpdateAge) do
on_success { render_serialized(result.user, BasicUserSerializer, root: "user") }
end
end
```
- Rspec matchers and steps inspector, improving the dev experience while creating specs for a service
```ruby
RSpec.describe(UpdateAge) do
subject(:result) do
described_class.call(guardian: guardian, user_id: user.id, age: age)
end
fab!(:user) { Fabricate(:user) }
fab!(:current_user) { Fabricate(:admin) }
let(:guardian) { Guardian.new(current_user) }
let(:age) { 1 }
it { expect(user.reload.age).to eq(age) }
end
```
Note in case of unexpected failure in your spec, the output will give all the relevant information:
```
1) UpdateAge when no channel_id is given is expected to fail to find a model named 'user'
Failure/Error: it { is_expected.to fail_to_find_a_model(:user) }
Expected model 'foo' (key: 'result.model.user') was not found in the result object.
[1/4] [model] 'user' ❌
[2/4] [policy] 'can_see_user'
[3/4] [contract] 'default'
[4/4] [step] 'update_age'

The #pluck_first freedom patch, first introduced by @danielwaterworth has served us well, and is used widely throughout both core and plugins. It seems to have been a common enough use case that Rails 6 introduced it's own method #pick with the exact same implementation. This allows us to retire the freedom patch and switch over to the built-in ActiveRecord method.
There is no replacement for #pluck_first!, but a quick search shows we are using this in a very limited capacity, and in some cases incorrectly (by assuming a nil return rather than an exception), which can quite easily be replaced with #pick plus some extra handling.
Ember CLI will automatically run babel transformations in parallel when the config is 'serializable', and can therefore be applied in multiple processes automatically. If any plugin is defined in an unserializable way, parallelisation will be disabled.
Our discourse-widget-hbs transformer was causing parallelisation to be disabled. This commit fixes that, and also enables the throwUnlessParallelizable flag so that we catch this kind of issue more easily in future.
This commit also refactors our deprecation silencing system into its own file, and uses a fake babel plugin to ensure deprecations are silenced in babel worker processes.
In our GitHub CI jobs, this doubles the speed of ember builds (1m30s -> 45s). It should also improve production deploy times, and cold-start dev builds.
This PR is a major change to Sass compilation in Discourse.
The new version of sass-ruby moves to dart-sass putting we back on the supported version of Sass. It does so while keeping compatibility with the existing method signatures, so minimal change is needed in Discourse for this change.
This moves us
From:
- sassc 2.0.1 (Feb 2019)
- libsass 3.5.2 (May 2018)
To:
- dart-sass 1.58
This update applies the following breaking changes:
>
> These breaking changes are coming soon or have recently been released:
>
> [Functions are stricter about which units they allow](https://sass-lang.com/documentation/breaking-changes/function-units) beginning in Dart Sass 1.32.0.
>
> [Selectors with invalid combinators are invalid](https://sass-lang.com/documentation/breaking-changes/bogus-combinators) beginning in Dart Sass 1.54.0.
>
> [/ is changing from a division operation to a list separator](https://sass-lang.com/documentation/breaking-changes/slash-div) beginning in Dart Sass 1.33.0.
>
> [Parsing the special syntax of @-moz-document will be invalid](https://sass-lang.com/documentation/breaking-changes/moz-document) beginning in Dart Sass 1.7.2.
>
> [Compound selectors could not be extended](https://sass-lang.com/documentation/breaking-changes/extend-compound) in Dart Sass 1.0.0 and Ruby Sass 4.0.0.
SCSS files have been migrated automatically using `sass-migrator division app/assets/stylesheets/**/*.scss`
Allows users to configure their own custom sidebar sections with links withing Discourse instance. Links can be passed as relative path, for example "/tags" or full URL.
Only path is saved in DB, so when Discourse domain is changed, links will be still valid.
Feature is hidden behind SiteSetting.enable_custom_sidebar_sections. This hidden setting determines the group which members have access to this new feature.
Previously due to an error archived topics were more prominent in search
than closed topics.
This amends our internal logic to ensure archived topics are bumped down
the list.
Previously to_tsquery would split terms and join with &
In PG 14 terms are split and use <-> which means followed directly by.
In PG 13:
discourse_test=# SELECT to_tsquery('english', '''hello world''');
to_tsquery
---------------------
'hello' & 'world'
(1 row)
In PG 14:
discourse_test=# SELECT to_tsquery('english', '''hello world''');
to_tsquery
---------------------
'hello' <-> 'world'
(1 row)
Change is very unobtrosive, we simply amend our to_tsquery to behave like
it used to behave and make no use of the `<->` operator
More detail at: https://akorotkov.github.io/blog/2021/05/22/pg-14-query-parsing/
Note that plainto_tsquery used elsewhere in Discourse keeps the exact
same function.
This also corrects a faulty test that was passing by a fluke on older
version of PG
We've had a couple of problems with the R2 gem where it generated a broken RTL CSS bundle that caused a badly broken layout when Discourse is used in an RTL language, see a3ce93b and 5926386. For this reason, we're replacing R2 with `rtlcss` that can handle modern CSS features better than R2 does.
`rltcss` is written in JS and available as an npm package. Calling the `rltcss` from rubyland is done via the `rtlcss_wrapper` gem which contains a distributable copy of the `rtlcss` package and loads/calls it with Mini Racer. See https://github.com/discourse/rtlcss_wrapper for more details.
Internal topic: t/76263.
`--d-hover` is calculated to be equivalent to primary-100 in light mode, or primary-low in dark mode
`--d-selected` is calculated to be equivalent to primary-low in light mode, or primary-100 in dark mode
`lib/color_math` is introduced to provide some utilities for making these calculations.
The new `prioritize_exact_search_match` can be used to force the search
algorithm to prioritize exact term matches in title when ranking results.
This is scoped narrowly to titles for cases such as a topic titled:
"organisation chart" and a search of "org chart".
If we scoped this wider, all discussion about "org chart" would float to
the top and leave a very common title de-prioritized.
This is a hidden site setting and it has some performance impact due
to double ranking.
That said, performance impact is somewhat mitigated cause ranking on
title alone is a very cheap operation.
Many users seems surprised by prefix matching in search leading to
unexpected results.
Over the years we always would return results starting with a search term
and not expect exact matches.
Meaning a search for `abra` would find `abracadabra`
This introduces the Site Setting `enable_search_prefix_matching` which
defaults to true. (behavior unchanged)
We plan to experiment on select sites with exact matches to see if the
results are less surprising
* FIX: Ensure soft-deleted topics can be deleted
The topic was not found during the deletion process because it was
deleted and `@post.topic` was nil.
* DEV: Use @topic instead of finding the topic every time
Under some situations, we would inadvertently return a public (unauthenticated) result to an authenticated API request. This commit adds the `Api-Key` header to our anonymous cache bypass logic.
Under scenarios of extremely high load where large numbers of `Reviewable*` items are being created, it has been observed that multiple instances of the `NotifyReviewable` job may run simultaneously.
These jobs will work satisfactorily if the concurrency is limited to 1, and the different types of jobs (items reviewable by admins, vs moderators, vs particular groups, etc.) are run eventually.
This change introduces a new option to `DistributedMutex` which allows the `max_get_lock_attempts` to be specified. If the number is exceeded an error will be raised, which will cause Sidekiq to requeue the job. Sidekiq has existing logic to back-off on retry times for jobs that have failed multiple times.
