Twitter removed OpenGraph tags from their pages. We can no longer
extract all the information (for example, the quoted tweet) we need
to render Oneboxes without using their API.
Meta topic: https://meta.discourse.org/t/prevent-to-linkify-when-there-is-a-redirect/226964/2?u=osama.
This commit adds a new site setting `block_onebox_on_redirect` (default off) for blocking oneboxes (full and inline) of URLs that redirect. Note that an initial http → https redirect is still allowed if the redirect location is identical to the source (minus the scheme of course). For example, if a user includes a link to `http://example.com/page` and the link resolves to `https://example.com/page`, then the link will onebox (assuming it can be oneboxed) even if the setting is enabled. The reason for this is a user may type out a URL (i.e. the URL is short and memorizable) with http and since a lot of sites support TLS with http traffic automatically redirected to https, so we should still allow the URL to onebox.
The `blocked onebox domains` setting lets site owners change what sites
are allowed to be oneboxed. When a link is entered into a post,
Discourse checks the domain of the link against that setting and blocks
the onebox if the domain is blocked. But if there's a chain of
redirects, then only the final destination website is checked against
the site setting.
This commit amends that behavior so that every website in the redirect
chain is checked against the site setting, and if anything is blocked
the original link doesn't onebox at all in the post. The
`Discourse-No-Onebox` header is also checked in every response and the
onebox is blocked if the header is set to "1".
Additionally, Discourse will now include the `Discourse-No-Onebox`
header with every response if the site requires login to access content.
This is done to signal to a Discourse instance that it shouldn't attempt
to onebox other Discourse instances if they're login-only. Non-Discourse
websites can also use include that header if they don't wish to have
Discourse onebox their content.
Internal ticket: t59305.
It's very easy to forget to add `require 'rails_helper'` at the top of every core/plugin spec file, and omissions can cause some very confusing/sporadic errors.
By setting this flag in `.rspec`, we can remove the need for `require 'rails_helper'` entirely.
