This commit moves the generation of category background CSS from the
server side to the client side. This simplifies the server side code
because it does not need to check which categories are visible to the
current user.
Why this change?
The `can survive cache miss` test in `spec/requests/stylesheets_controller_spec.rb`
was failing because the file was not found on disk for the cache to be
regenerated. This is because a test in
`spec/lib/stylesheet/manager_spec.rb` was removing the entire
`tmp/stylesheet-cache` directory which is incorrect because the folder
in the test environment further segretates the stylesheet caches based
on the process of the test.
What does this change do?
1. Introduce `Stylesheet::Manager.rm_cache_folder` method for the test
environment to properly clean up the cache folder.
2. Make `Stylesheet::Manager::CACHE_PATH` a private constant since the
cache path should be obtained from the `Stylesheet::Manager.cache_fullpath` method.
Sassc-embedded fixes a performance issue with a leaking DartSass process. And it also fixes an issue with source map file paths (without any extra flags).
Prior to this commit, we didn't have RTL versions of our admin and plugins CSS bundles and we always served LTR versions of those bundles even when users used an RTL locale, causing admin and plugins UI elements to never look as good as when an LTR locale was used. Example of UI issues prior to this commit were: missing margins, borders on the wrong side and buttons too close to each other etc.
This commit creates an RTL version for the admin CSS bundle as well as RTL bundles for all the installed plugins and serves those RTL bundles to users/sites who use RTL locales.
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

SCSS files have been migrated automatically using `sass-migrator division app/assets/stylesheets/**/*.scss`
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.
Previously the stylesheet cachebusting hash was based on the maximum mtime of files. This works well in development and during in-container updates (e.g. via docker_manager). However, when a fresh docker image is created for each deploy, the file mtimes will change even if the contents has not.
This commit changes the production logic to calculate the cachebuster from the filenames and contents of the relevant assets. This should be consistent across deploys, thereby improving cache hits and improving page load times.
Previously, when the array had both nil and string values it returned the error "comparison of NilClass with String failed". Now I added the `.compact` method to prevent this issue as per @martin-brennan's suggestion https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/18431#discussion_r984204788

Experiment moving from preload tags in the document head to preload information the the response headers.
While this is a minor improvement in most browsers (headers are parsed before the response body), this allows smart proxies like Cloudflare to "learn" from those headers and build HTTP 103 Early Hints for subsequent requests to the same URI, which will allow the user agent to download and parse our JS/CSS while we are waiting for the server to generate and stream the HTML response.

This commit adds preload links for core/plugin/theme CSS stylesheets in the head.
Preload links are non-blocking and run in parallel. This means that they should have already been downloaded by the time we use the actual stylesheets (in the <body> tag).
Google is currently complaining about this here and this PR will address that warning.
This commit will also fix an issue in the splash screen where it sometimes doesn't respect the theme colors - causing a slightly jarring experience on dark themes.
Note that I opted not to add new specs because the underlying work required already has a lot of coverage. The new methods only change the output HTML so we can chuck that in the document <head>
This change also means that we can make all the stylesheets non-render blocking, but that will follow in a separate commit.
This isn't a complete fix, it doesn't enable live reloading of color
definition stylesheets. But at least now when working on WCAG overrides
the developer won't need to restart the server to see changes.
This allows text editors to use correct syntax coloring for the heredoc sections.
Heredoc tag names we use:
languages: SQL, JS, RUBY, LUA, HTML, CSS, SCSS, SH, HBS, XML, YAML/YML, MF, ICS
other: MD, TEXT/TXT, RAW, EMAIL
Without this parameter, requests for sourcemaps on shared-CDN multisites will not be routed to the correct database, resulting in a 404.
The stylesheet content now depends on the site hostname, so the hostname has been added to the digest.
* File.exists? is deprecated and removed in Ruby 3.2 in favor of
File.exist?
* Dir.exists? is deprecated and removed in Ruby 3.2 in favor of
Dir.exist?
If a theme name contained a double-quote, this problem could lead to invalid/unexpected HTML in the `<head>`
Note that this is not considered a security issue because themes can only be installed/named by administrators, and themes/administrators already have the ability to run arbitrary javascript.
The cache_fullpath for the Stylesheet::Manager was the same for
every test runner in a parallel test environment, so when other
specs or other places e.g. the stylesheets_controller_spec ran
rm -rf Stylesheet::Manager.cache_fullpath this caused errors
for other specs running that went through the
Stylesheet::Manager::Builder#compile path, causing the error
```
Errno::ENOENT:
No such file or directory @ rb_sysopen
```
Also fixed the stylesheet_controller which was interpolating Rails.root + CACHE_PATH
itself instead of just using Stylesheet::Manager.cache_fullpath
Take 2 of https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/13466.
Fixes a few issues with the original PR:
- color definition stylesheet target now includes the theme id, to avoid themes set to use the default color scheme loading the same stylesheet
- changes the internal cache key for color definition stylesheet to reset the pre-existing cache
