This commit mainly improves three things:
- slide up/down animation of the modals on mobile, also allowing swipe down to close the modal
- body scroll locked modals, it means that only the body of the modal can scroll
- a new `<:headerPrimaryAction>` block for `d-modal` which when present will move the cancel button to the left of the modal title, and this primary action to the right of the title
Why this change?
While working on the tag selector for the theme object editor, I
realised that there is an extremely high possibility that users might want to select
more than one tag. By supporting the ability to select more than one
tag, it also means that we get support for a single tag for free as
well.
What does this change do?
1. Change `type: tag` to `type: tags` and support `min` and `max`
validations for `type: tags`.
2. Fix the `<SchemaThemeSetting::Types::Tags>` component to support the
`min` and `max` validations
Why this change?
Fortunately or unfortunately in Discourse core, we mainly use `Tag#name`
to look up tags and not its id. This assumption is built into the
frontend as well so we need to use the tag's name instead of the id
here.
Followup 3094f32ff5,
this fixes an issue with the logic in this commit where
we were returning false if any of the conditionals here
were false, regardless of the type of `obj`, where we should
have only done this if `obj` was a `PostAction`, which lead
us to return false in cases where we were checking if the
user could edit their own post as anon.
When "lazy load categories" is enabled and parent_category_id was set,
the query fetching categories contained a contradiction filtering both
by parent_category_id and parent_category_id = NULL.
Previously, we had an instant redirect back to the homepage, and clicking avatars would do nothing. This made things feel 'broken' for anon when 'hide_user_profiles_from_public' was enabled.
This commit does a few things to resolve this:
1. Improve our 'exception' system for routes so that developers can deliberately trigger it without an ajax error
2. Improve 'exception' system so that the browser URL bar is updated correctly, and the 'back' button works as expected
3. Replace the redirect-to-home with an 'access denied' error page, with specific copy for 'You must log in to view user profiles'
4. Update user-card logic to display this new page instead of doing nothing on click
Previously, when crawlers triggered a Discourse::InvalidAccess exception, they would be served the full Ember SPA. The SPA is not optimized for crawling, and so this is likely to cause problems for sites. This issue is particularly problematic when user profiles are hidden from the public via the `hide_user_profiles_from_public` setting, because the crawler would end up being 'soft-redirected' to the homepage in the SPA.
Why this change?
In our schema, we support the `min_length` and `max_length` validation
rules like so:
```
some_objects_setting
type: objects
schema:
name: some_object
properties:
title:
type: string
validations:
min_length: 1
max_length: 10
```
While the validations used to validate the objects on the server side,
we should also add client side validation for better UX.
This commit changes the API for registering the plugin config
page nav configuration from a server-side to a JS one;
there is no need for it to be server-side.
It also makes some changes to allow for 2 different ways of displaying
navigation for plugin pages, depending on complexity:
* TOP - This is the best mode for simple plugins without a lot of different
custom configuration pages, and it reuses the grey horizontal nav bar
already used for admins.
* SIDEBAR - This is better for more complex plugins; likely this won't
be used in the near future, but it's readily available if needed
There is a new AdminPluginConfigNavManager service too to manage which
plugin the admin is actively viewing, otherwise we would have trouble
hiding the main plugin nav for admins when viewing a single plugin.
Why this change?
The test registers a category custom field to preload but doesn't remove
it at the end of the test causing a state leak which can result in other
tests failing.
All our link validation, and conversion from url -> route/model/query is expensive and prone to bugs. Instead, if people enter a link, we can just use it as-is.
Originally all this extra logic was added to handle unusual situations like `/safe-mode`, `/my/...`, etc. However, all of these are now handled correctly by our Ember router, so there is no need for it.
Now, we just pass the user-supplied `href` directly to the SectionLink component, and let Ember handle routing to it when clicked.
The only functional change here is that we no longer validate internal links by parsing them with the Ember router. But I'd argue this is fine, because the previous logic would cause both false positives (e.g. `/t/123` would be valid, even if topic 123 doesn't exist), and false negatives (for routes which are server-side only, like the new AI share pages).
We were incorrectly using `return` in a block which was causing exceptions at runtime. These exceptions were not causing much issues as they are in defer block.
While working on writing a test for this specific case, I noticed that our `upsert_custom_fields` function was using rails `update_all` which is not updating the `updated_at` timestamp. This commit also fixes it and adds a test for it.
In #26122 we promoted all problem checks defined as class methods on AdminDashboardData to their own first-class ProblemCheck instances.
This PR continues that by promoting problem checks that are implemented as blocks as well. This includes updating a couple plugins that have problem checks.
Why this change?
Google does not yet publish binaries for chrome and chromedriver for
`linux/arm64`. In 484954ec4c, we attempted
to add support for running system tests on `linux/arm64` by switching to
Firefox but our system tests seem to make lots of assumptions about
running on chromium based browsers so there are some tests that don't work in Firefox.
This commit works around the lack of chrome and chromedriver binaries by
doing the following:
1. Adds a `DISCOURSE_SYSTEM_TEST_CHROMIUM` ENV variable which when set to
`1` will allow us to run system tests using a chromium binary. Chromium
binaries for `linux/arm64` are available and since Chrome is Chromium based, all of our
system tests "should pass" even when running against a Chromium binary. I don't expect
this to be perfect but I expect it to be better than running against Firefox. This change buys us time
until Chrome finally ships binaries for `linux/arm64`.
2. Adds a `DISCOURSE_SYSTEM_TEST_CHROMEDRIVER_PATH` ENV variable to
allow the chromedriver path to be configured. We need this because
the [electron project](https://github.com/electron/electron/releases) actually
releases chromewebdriver for `linux/arm64` so someone running
`linux/arm64` can download the necessary chromedriver from the
project instead of relying on selenium-manager.
This change is also important for us to support [discourse_test](https://github.com/discourse/discourse_docker/blob/main/image/discourse_test/Dockerfile) and [discourse_dev](https://github.com/discourse/discourse_docker/blob/main/image/discourse_dev/Dockerfile) images targeted at `linux/arm64`.
We never use that information and this also fixes an issue with the BCC plugin which ends up triggering a rate-limit because we were publishing a "NEW_PRIVATE_MESSAGE" to the user sending the BCC for every recipients 💥

Why this change?
According to https://web.dev/articles/preload-critical-assets,
> By preloading a certain resource, you are telling the browser that you would like to fetch it sooner than the browser would otherwise discover it because you are certain that it is important for the current page.
The preload resource hint is meant to tell the browser to fetch
resources that it would not discover upfront or early. However, we are
not using it the right way because we are literally adding the resource
hint right before a `<script>` tag which means the browser would have
discovered the resource even without the resource hint.
What does this change do?
This commit removes the preload resource hint which are added right
before script tags since the optimization here is highly questionable at the expense of making
our initial DOM larger.
Why this change?
In https://web.dev/articles/preconnect-and-dns-prefetch, it describes
how hinting to the browser to preconnect to domains which we will
eventually use the connection for can help improve the time it takes to
load a page.
We are putting this behind an experimental flag so that we can test and
profile this in a production environment.
What does this change introduce?
Introduce a hidden experimental `experimental_preconnect_link_header`
site setting which when enabled will add the `preconnect` and
`dns-prefetch` resource hints to the response headers for full page load
requests.
Why this change?
This is a first pass at styling the editor for creating/editing/updating
an objects typed theme setting. Only the desktop view is being
considered at the current moment.
The objects typed theme setting is still behind a feature flag at this moment so there is no need for us to get the styling perfect. The purpose of this PR is to get us to a state which we can quickly iterate with a designer on.
This commit makes it so the site settings filter controls and
the list of settings input editors themselves can be used elsewhere
in the admin UI outside of /admin/site_settings
This allows us to provide more targeted groups of settings in different
UI areas where it makes sense to provide them, such as on plugin pages.
You could open a single page for a plugin where you can see information
about that plugin, change settings, and configure it with custom UIs
in the one place.
In future we will do this in "config areas" for other parts of the
admin UI.
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.
This commit operates at three levels of abstraction:
1. We want to prevent user history rows from being unbounded in size.
This commit adds rails validations to limit the sizes of columns on
user_histories,
2. However, we don't want to prevent certain actions from being
completed if these columns are too long. In those cases, we truncate
the values that are given and store the truncated versions,
3. For endpoints that perform staff actions, we can further control
what is permitted by explicitly validating the params that are given
before attempting the action,
Why this change?
When editing a objects typed theme setting, the input fields which are
rendered should include a description so that the user knows the purpose
of the field which they are changing.
What does this change do?
This change adds support for adding description to each property in the
schema for an object by following a given convention in the locale file.
For a schema like this:
```
objects_setting:
type: objects
schema:
name: section
properties:
name:
type: string
required: true
links:
type: objects
schema:
name: link
properties:
name:
type: string
required: true
validations:
max_length: 20
url:
type: string
```
Description for each property in the object can be added like so:
```
en:
theme_metadata:
settings:
objects_setting:
description: <description> for the setting
schema:
properties:
name: <description for the name property>
links:
name: <description for the name property in link>
url: <description for the url property in link>
```
If the a description is not present, the input field will simply not
have an description.
Also note that a description for a theme setting can now be added like
so:
```
en:
theme_metadata:
settings:
some_other_setting: <This will be used as the description>
objects_setting:
description: <This will also be used as the description>
```
In AdminDashboardData we have a bunch of problem checks implemented as methods on that class. This PR absolves it of the responsibility by promoting each of those checks to a first class ProblemCheck. This way each of them can have their own priority and arbitrary functionality can be isolated in its own class.
Think "extract class" refactoring over and over. Since they were all moved we can also get rid of the @@problem_syms class variable which was basically the old version of the registry now replaced by ProblemCheck.realtime.
In addition AdminDashboardData::Problem value object has been entirely replaced with the new ProblemCheck::Problem (with compatible API).
Lastly, I added some RSpec matchers to simplify testing of problem checks and provide helpful error messages when assertions fail.
With the new admin sidebar restructure, we have a link to "Installed plugins". We would like to ensure that when the admin is searching for a plugin name like "akismet" or "automation" this link will be visible. Also when entering the plugins page, related plugins should be highlighted.
Why this change?
Previously, we identified that ActiveRecord's PostgreSQL adapter
executes 3 db queries each time a new connection is created. The 3 db
queries was identified when we looked at the `pg_stats_statement` table
on one of our multisite production cluster. At that time, the hypothesis
is that because we were agressively reaping and creating connections,
the db queries executed each time a connection is created is wasting
resources on our database servers. However, we didn't see any the needle
move much on our servers after deploying the patch so we have decided to
drop this patch as it makes it harder for us to upgrade ActiveRecord in
the future.
