We're changing the implementation of trust levels to use groups. Part of this is to have site settings that reference trust levels use groups instead. It converts the min_trust_level_to_allow_invite site setting to invite_allowed_groups.
Nothing much of note. This is used in one place and there's no fallout.
Why this change?
By default, `Capybara.default_max_wait_time` is set to `2`. However,
this is not a high enough default for Discourse as certain requests like
creating a post can take upwards of 2 seconds even on a high end desktop
CPU like the Ryzen 5950x. Therefore, we have decided to double the default max wait time.
Using min_trust_to_create_topic and create_topic_allowed_groups together was part of #24740
Now, when plugins specs are fixed, we can safely remove that part of logic.
This is v0 of admin sidebar navigation, which moves
all of the top-level admin nav from the top of the page
into a sidebar. This is hidden behind a enable_admin_sidebar_navigation
site setting, and is opt-in for now.
This sidebar is dynamically shown whenever the user enters an
admin route in the UI, and is hidden and replaced with either
the:
* Main forum sidebar
* Chat sidebar
Depending on where they navigate to. For now, custom sections
are not supported in the admin sidebar.
This commit removes the experimental admin sidebar generation rake
task but keeps the experimental sidebar UI for now for further
testing; it just uses the real nav as the default now.
Before, when needed to get stats in a plugin, we called Core classes directly.
Introducing plugin API will decouple plugins from Core and give as more freedom
in refactoring stats in Core. Without this API, I wasn't able to do all refactorings
I wanted when working on d91456f.
We're changing the implementation of trust levels to use groups. Part of this is to have site settings that reference trust levels use groups instead. It converts the min_trust_level_to_allow_user_card_background site setting to user_card_background_allowed_groups.
Nothing of note here. This is used in exactly one place, and there's no fallout.
This validator is used for site settings where one or more groups are to be input.
At the moment this validator just checks that the value isn't blank. This PR adds a validation for the existence of the groups passed in.
We're changing the implementation of trust levels to use groups. Part of this is to have site settings that reference trust levels use groups instead. It converts the tl4_delete_posts_and_topics site setting to delete_all_posts_and_topics_allowed_groups.
This one is a bit different from previous ones, as it's a boolean flag, and the default should be no group. Pay special attention to the migration during review.
* FEATURE: core code, tests for feature to allow backups to removed based on a time window
* FEATURE: getting tests working for time-based backup

We're changing the implementation of trust levels to use groups. Part of this is to have site settings that reference trust levels use groups instead. It converts the min_trust_to_flag_posts site setting to flag_post_allowed_groups.
Note: In the original setting, "posts" is plural. I have changed this to "post" singular in the new setting to match others.
We're changing the implementation of trust levels to use groups. Part of this is to have site settings that reference trust levels use groups instead. It converts the min_trust_to_edit_post site setting to edit_post_allowed_groups.
The old implementation will co-exist for a short period while I update any references in plugins and themes.
This change converts the min_trust_to_create_topic site setting to
create_topic_allowed_groups.

What motivated this change?
Our builds on Github actions have been extremely flaky mostly due to system tests. This has led to a drop in confidence
in our test suite where our developers tend to assume that a failed job is due to a flaky system test. As a result, we
have had occurrences where changes that resulted in legitimate test failures are merged into the `main` branch because developers
assumed it was a flaky test.
What does this change do?
This change seeks to reduce the flakiness of our builds on Github Actions by automatically re-running RSpec tests once when
they fail. If a failed test passes subsequently in the re-run, we mark the test as flaky by logging it into a file on disk
which is then uploaded as an artifact of the Github workflow run. We understand that automatically re-runs will lead to
lower accuracy of our tests but we accept this as an acceptable trade-off since a fragile build has a much greater impact
on our developers' time. Internally, the Discourse development team will be running a service to fetch the flaky tests
which have been logged for internal monitoring.
How is the change implemented?
1. A `--retry-and-log-flaky-tests` CLI flag is added to the `bin/turbo_rspec` CLI which will then initialize `TurboTests::Runner`
with the `retry_and_log_flaky_tests` kwarg set to `true`.
2. When the `retry_and_log_flaky_tests` kwarg is set to `true` for `TurboTests::Runner`, we will register an additional
formatter `Flaky::FailuresLoggerFormatter` to the `TurboTests::Reporter` in the `TurboTests::Runner#run` method.
The `Flaky::FailuresLoggerFormatter` has a simple job of logging all failed examples to a file on disk when running all the
tests. The details of the failed example which are logged can be found in `TurboTests::Flaky::FailedExample.to_h`.
3. Once all the tests have been run once, we check the result for any failed examples and if there are, we read the file on
disk to fetch the `location_rerun_location` of the failed examples which is then used to run the tests in a new RSpec process.
In the rerun, we configure a `TurboTests::Flaky::FlakyDetectorFormatter` with RSpec which removes all failed examples from the log file on disk since those examples are not flaky tests. Note that if there are too many failed examples on the first run, we will deem the failures to likely not be due to flaky tests and not re-run the test failures. As of writing, the threshold of failed examples is set to 10. If there are more than 10 failed examples, we will not re-run the failures.
Ability to automatically generate migration when site setting name is changed.
Example usage: `rails generate site_setting_rename_migration site_description contact_email`
Applies the embed_unlisted site setting consistently across topic embeds, including those created via the WP Discourse plugin. Relatedly, adds a embed exception to can_create_unlisted_topic? check. Users creating embedded topics are not always staff.
Why this change?
The code changes introduced in 5b91dc1844
resulted in errors being raised when `session.quit` is called when using
multiple sessions. From my debugging, this seems to be attributed to the
fact that the change introduced resulted in multiple sessions sharing
the same instance of `Selenium::WebDriver::Remote::Http::Default`. While
sharing the same instance in theory should be fine, but the problem is
that `Selenium::WebDriver::Driver` will mutate the `server_url` of the
client in `Selenium::WebDriver::Remote::Bridge`. This is problematic
because each session created by capbyara relies on a different server
URL and this mutation causes all sorts of weird errors to occur.
To reproduce the problem, run `LOAD_PLUGINS=1 rspec plugins/chat/spec/system/send_message_spec.rb:76`
locally while excluding the changes in this commit.
This change converts the min_trust_to_edit_wiki_post site setting to edit_wiki_post_allowed_groups.

A lot of work has been put in the select kits used for selecting
categories: CategorySelector, CategoryChooser, CategoryDrop, however
they still do not work as expected when these selectors already have
values set, because the category were still looked up in the list of
categories stored on the client-side Categrories.list().
This PR fixes that by looking up the categories when the selector is
initialized. This required altering the /categories/find.json endpoint
to accept a list of IDs that need to be looked up. The API is called
using Category.asyncFindByIds on the client-side.
CategorySelector was also updated to receive a list of category IDs as
attribute, instead of the list of categories, because the list of
categories may have not been loaded.
During this development, I noticed that SiteCategorySerializer did not
serializer all fields (such as permission and notification_level)
which are not a property of category, but a property of the relationship
between users and categories. To make this more efficient, the
preload_user_fields! method was implemented that can be used to
preload these attributes for a user and a list of categories.
When rebaking and in various other places for posts, we
run through the uploads and call `update_secure_status` on
each of them.
However, if the secure status didn't change, we were still
calling S3 to change the ACL, which would have been a noop
in many cases and takes ~1 second per call, slowing things
down a lot.
Also, we didn't account for the s3_acls_enabled site setting
being false here, and in the specs doing an assertion
that `Discourse.store.update_ACL` is not called doesn't
work; `Discourse.store` isn't a singleton, it re-initializes
`FileStore::S3Store.new` every single time.
Why this change?
The tags modal loads more tags via infinite loading based on when the last tag in the
given page appears in the viewport for the user. When it comes in to
view, a request is then triggered to fetch additional tags. To ensure
that we are only loading a single page of tags each time the modal is
opened, we previously set a max height on the modal's body to ensure
that the last tag which appears in the modal will be outside of the view
port in the initial load. However, this has regressed recently due to
unknown reasons and resulted in multiple pages of tags being loaded
immediately from the server as the modal's height was not restricted.
This regression was caught by an existing test but was unfortunately
determined as flaky.
What does this change do?
This change restores the max height on the edit navigation menu tags
modal on dekstop.
I took the wrong approach here, need to rethink.

There will soon be additional login_required checks
for Guardian, and the intent of many checks by automated
systems is better fulfilled by using BasicUser, which
simulates a logged in TL0 forum user, rather than an
anon user.
In some cases the use of anon still makes sense (e.g.
anonymous_cache), and in that case the more explicit
`Guardian.anon_user` is used
