Checking `plugin.enabled?` while initializing plugins causes issues in two ways:
- An application restart is required for changes to take effect. A load-balanced multi-server environment could behave very weirdly if containers restart at different times.
- In a multisite environment, it takes the `enabled?` setting from the default site. Changes on that site affect all other sites in the cluster.
Instead, `plugin.enabled?` should be checked at runtime, in the context of a request. This commit removes `plugin.enabled?` from many `instance.rb` methods.
I have added a working `plugin.enabled?` implementation for methods that actually affect security/functionality:
- `post_custom_fields_whitelist`
- `whitelist_staff_user_custom_field`
- `add_permitted_post_create_param`
* Add possibility to add hidden posts with PostCreator
* FEATURE: Create hidden posts for received spam emails
Spamchecker usually have 3 results: HAM, SPAM and PROBABLY_SPAM
SPAM gets usually directly rejected and needs no further handling.
HAM is good message and usually gets passed unmodified.
PROBABLY_SPAM gets an additional header to allow further processing.
This change addes processing capabilities for such headers and marks
new posts created as hidden when received via email.
Introduce new patterns for direct sql that are safe and fast.
MiniSql is not prone to memory bloat that can happen with direct PG usage.
It also has an extremely fast materializer and very a convenient API
- DB.exec(sql, *params) => runs sql returns row count
- DB.query(sql, *params) => runs sql returns usable objects (not a hash)
- DB.query_hash(sql, *params) => runs sql returns an array of hashes
- DB.query_single(sql, *params) => runs sql and returns a flat one dimensional array
- DB.build(sql) => returns a sql builder

This updates tests to use latest rails 5 practice
and updates ALL dependencies that could be updated
Performance testing shows that performance has not regressed
if anything it is marginally faster now.
* `rescue nil` is a really bad pattern to use in our code base.
We should rescue errors that we expect the code to throw and
not rescue everything because we're unsure of what errors the
code would throw. This would reduce the amount of pain we face
when debugging why something isn't working as expexted. I've
been bitten countless of times by errors being swallowed as a
result during debugging sessions.
Locking a post prevents it from being edited. This is useful if the user
has posted something which has been edited out, and the staff members don't
want them to be able to edit it back in again.
