`ember exam` points all browsers at a single ember-cli server process. With very high parallelism, we've started seeing `ChunkLoadError` exceptions, which may indicate the server being overloaded. Capping to 8 browsers to avoid that.
We were writing theme-transpiler JS files to the filesystem on a per-process basis, and then immediately reading them back in. Plus, there was no cleanup mechanism, so the tmp directory would grow indefinitely.
This commit refactors things so that the `build.js` script outputs the theme-transpiler source to stdout. That way, we can read it directly into the process, and then into mini-racer, without needing to go via the filesystem. No cleanup required!
In production, the theme-transpiler is still cached in a file during `assets:precompile`
We have been seeing `ZLib::BufError` when running the `assets:precompile` rake
task.

The hypothesis here is that some thread unsafe issue is causing the
problem since we download the Maxmind databases in a thread and run
decompression operations once the gzip file is downloaded.
In the near term, we plan to move downloading of Maxmind databases out
of the Rake task into a scheduled job so this patch should be considered
a temporary solution.
The trade-off here is that build time will slightly increase since we
are not longer downloading Maxmind databases while precompiling assets
at the same time.
We have a dedicated admin page (`/admin/customize/email_templates`) that lets admins customize all emails that Discourse sends to users. The way this page works is that it lists all translations strings that are used for emails, and the list of translation strings is currently hardcoded and hasn't been updated in years. We've had a number of new emails that Discourse sends, so we should add those templates to the list to let admins easily customize those templates.
Meta topic: https://meta.discourse.org/t/3-2-x-still-ignores-some-custom-email-templates/308203.
Our old group SMTP SSL option was a checkbox,
but this was not ideal because there are actually
3 different ways SSL can be used when sending
SMTP:
* None
* SSL/TLS
* STARTTLS
We got around this before with specific overrides
for Gmail, but it's not flexible enough and now people
want to use other providers. It's best to be clear,
though it is a technical detail. We provide a way
to test the SMTP settings before saving them so there
should be little chance of messing this up.
This commit also converts GroupEmailSettings to a glimmer
component.
This patch upgrades the MessageFormat library to version 3.3.0 from
0.1.5.
Our `I18n.messageFormat` method signature is unchanged, and now uses the
new API under the hood.
We don’t need dedicated locale files for handling pluralization rules
anymore as everything is now included by the library itself.
The compilation of the messages now happens through our
`messageformat-wrapper` gem. It then outputs an ES module that includes
all its needed dependencies.
Most of the changes happen in `JsLocaleHelper` and in the `ExtraLocales`
controller.
A new method called `.output_MF` has been introduced in
`JsLocaleHelper`. It handles all the fetching, compiling and
transpiling to generate the proper MF messages in JS. Overrides and
fallbacks are also handled directly in this method.
The other main change is that now the MF translations are served through
the `ExtraLocales` controller instead of being statically compiled in a
JS file, then having to patch the messages using overrides and
fallbacks. Now the MF translations are just another bundle that is
created on the fly and cached by the client.
This commit updates the `docker:test` rake task to run core and plugin
QUnit tests in parallel using half the number of available CPU
processors to speed up time it takes to run the tests on hardware with
more CPU cores.
Before this commit, core QUnit tests ran by the `docker:test` rake task was capped at 3 parallel
processes while plugin QUnit tests was not ran in parallel.
- Delete vendored copy
- Create a JS entrypoint under `static/` which imports all the modes/themes/extensions we need
- Create an async `load-ace-editor` entrypoint
- Update `<AceEditor` component to use the new entrypoint
- De-jquery-ify `<AceEditor`
- Bump `v1.4.13` -> `v1.35.2`
* UX: Add a rake task to monitor progress for long rebakes
When doing mass rebaking, this task will print progress, speed and
expected time to completion (ETC) on a loop. It is meant for rebakes
that take several hours or days.
It will calculate a 10m moving average over the past 6 hours, and print
ETC accordingly.
It also shows Sidekiq stats in case Sidekiq jobs for rebaking were
enqueued separately, instead of using the rebake_posts tasks in this
file (which are 100% synchronous and do not touch Sidekiq at all).
NOTE: only the currently unbaked count at task start time is considered;
this is useful in live communities with lots of traffic, where new posts
might otherwise change the goal posts continuously.
* Satisfy stree
I am changing many of these to notes or resolving them as is,
most of these I have not actively worked on in years so someone
else can work on them when we get to these areas again.
Many site settings can be distructive or have huge side-effects
for a site that the admin may not be aware of when changing it.
This commit introduces a `requires_confirmation` attribute that
can be added to any site setting. When it is true, a confirmation
dialog will open if that setting is changed in the admin UI,
optionally with a custom message that is defined in client.en.yml.
If the admin does not confirm, we reset the setting to its previous
clean value and do not save the new value.
Continued work on moderate flags UI.
In this PR admins are allowed to change the order of flags. The notify user flag is always on top but all other flags can be moved.
Previously "themes frontend" CI job would:
1. pull compatible versions of themes that happened to be in the base image
2. clone all official themes (overriding the compatible versions from 1.)
3. run tests
This commit introduces the following changes which allows a site
administrator to mark `Upload` records with the `s3_file_missing`
verification status which will result in the `Upload` record being ignored when
`Discourse.store.list_missing_uploads` is ran on a site where S3 uploads
are enabled and `SiteSetting.enable_s3_inventory` is set to `true`.
1. Introduce `s3_file_missing` to `Upload.verification_statuses`
2. Introduce `Upload.mark_invalid_s3_uploads_as_missing` which updates
`Upload#verification_status` of all `Upload` records from `invalid_etag` to `s3_file_missing`.
3. Introduce `rake uploads:mark_invalid_s3_uploads_as_missing` Rake task
which allows a site administrator to change `Upload` records with
`invalid_etag` verification status to the `s3_file_missing`
verificaton_status.
4. Update `S3Inventory` to ignore `Upload` records with the
`s3_file_missing` verification status.
This commit adds a step in our tests workflow on Github actions to update the themes to
use the compatible version when not running aginast the `main` branch.
This is to ensure that we are not running
the tests for themes against an incompatible version of Discourse.
When running `rake uploads:regenerate_missing_optimized`,
a `Discourse::InvalidAccess` will be raised if an SVG
file is being processed as `OptimizedImage.prepend_decoder!`
doesn't support the svg extension. This commit simply copies
the original SVG file as the thumbnail, just like currently
`OptimizedImage.create_for` does.
- Use 'cheap-source-map' webpack config on low-memory machines
This results in worse quality sourcemaps in browser dev tools, but it significantly reduces memory use in our webpack build. In approximate local testing it drops from 1100mb to 590mb. This should make the rebuild process on low-memory machines much faster and less likely to trigger OOM errors.
In development, and on higher-memory machines, the higher-quality 'source-map' option is maintained.
- Disable Webpack's built-in `minimize` feature. Embroider already applies Terser after the webpack build is complete. There is no need to double-minimize the output.
- Update ember-cli-progress-ci to print to stderr instead of stdout. For some reason, pups (used by discourse_docker) buffers the stdout of commands and only prints when they are finished. stderr does not have this same limitation, so switching will mean sysadmins can see the progress of the ember build in real-time.
Given the number of variables it's hard to promise exact numbers. But, in my tests on a DO droplet with 1GB RAM (+2GB swap), this reduced the `ember build` portion of a `./launcher rebuild app` from ~50 minutes to ~15 minutes.
This commit introduces a few changes as a result of
customer issues with finding why a topic was relisted.
In one case, if a user edited the OP of a topic that was
unlisted and hidden because of too many flags, the topic
would get relisted by directly changing topic.visible,
instead of going via TopicStatusUpdater.
To improve tracking we:
* Introduce a visibility_reason_id to topic which functions
in a similar way to hidden_reason_id on post, this column is
set from the various places we change topic visibility
* Fix Post#unhide! which was directly modifying topic.visible,
instead we use TopicStatusUpdater which sets visibility_reason_id
and also makes a small action post
* Show the reason topic visibility changed when hovering the
unlisted icon in topic status on topic titles
This commit fixes a bug in the `themes:update` rake task which resulted
in the ActiveRecord transaction not being rolled back when an error was
encountered. The transaction was first introduced in
7f0682f4f2 which changed a `begin..rescue`
block to `transaction do..rescue`. The problem with that change
prevented the transaction from ever rolling back as the code block
looks something like this:
```
transaction do
begin
update_theme
rescue => e
# surpress error
end
end
```
From the transaction's point of view now, it will never rollback even if
an error was encountered when updating the remote theme because it will
never see the error.
Instead we should have done something like this if we wanted to surpress
the errors encountered while still ensuring that the transaction is
rolled back.
```
begin
transaction do
update_theme
end
rescue => e
# surpress error
end
```
This is essential for us to determine which site is encountering an
error while updating remote themes. We are also including the theme's id
because themes can have the same name.
This service-worker caching functionality was disabled by default in 1c58395bca, and the setting to re-enable was marked as experimental. Now we are dropping all the related logic.
This SQL tries to insert as much data as possible into the `user_stats` table by either calculating or by approximating stats based on existing. It also fixes an error in the calculation of `reply_count`which mistakenly contained all posts, not just replies.
This change also disables some steps in the `import:ensure_consistency` rake task by setting the `SKIP_USER_STATS` env variable. Otherwise, the rake task will overwrite the calculated data in the `user_stats` table with inaccurate data. I'm not changing or removing the logic from the rake task yet because other bulk import scripts seem to depend on it.
This method name is a bit confusing; with_secure_uploads implies
it may return a block or something with the uploads of the post,
and has_secure_uploads implies that it's checking whether the post
is linked to any secure uploads.
should_secure_uploads? communicates the true intent of this method --
which is to say whether uploads attached to this post should be
secure or not.
Why this change?
We currently support `GlobalSetting.refresh_maxmind_db_during_precompile_days` which
should cache the maxmind databases on disk for the configured number of
days before it downloads the databases from maxmind again via the API.
This was previously added to help us avoid hitting the API rate limit from maxmind.
However, there was a bug in the `copy_maxmind` when we copied the latest
downloaded database to the cache directory. In particular, `FileUtils.cp` was called with
`preserve: true` which would preserve the modified time of the file
being copied. This is problematic because download the database from
maxmind on 2 April 2024 can give us a file with an mtime of 29 March
2024. If `GlobalSetting.refresh_maxmind_db_during_precompile_days` is
set to `2` for example, the cache will never be used since we will
think that the file has been downloaded for more than 2 days in our
checks.
What is the fix here?
While we want to preserve the owner and group of the file, we do not
want to preserve the modified time and hence we will call
`FileUtils.touch` when copying the file.
This is so the CI output on GitHub actions isn't showing
tons and tons of unnecessary log data every time you want
to see the important thing, which is the actual test failure.
We were previously using the `EMBER_ENV=production` environment variable, which appears to produce the same output. But, some parts of ember-cli don't seem to support it, which leads to a confusing 'Environment: development' being printed on the console.
This commit adds `-prod` by default, which is the more common way to invoke ember-cli for production builds.
Why this change?
This ENV allows the brotli compression quality to be configurable such
that one can opt for a higher/lower level of compression based on their
preferences.
Why this change?
On a slow network, using the `AceEditor` component will result in a blob
of text being shown first before being swapped out with the `ace.js`
editor after it has completed loading.
There is also a problem when setting the theme for the editor which
would result in a "flash" as reported in
https://github.com/ajaxorg/ace/issues/3286. To avoid this, we need to
load the theme js file before displaying the editor.
What does this change do?
1. Adds a loading spinner and set the `div.ace` with a `.hidden` class.
2. Once all the relevant scripts and initialization is done, we will
then remove the loading spinner and remove `div.ace`.
Having minitest as a direct dependency causes ruby-lsp to use it as our test runner (per https://github.com/Shopify/ruby-lsp/blob/d1da8858a1/lib/ruby_lsp/requests/support/dependency_detector.rb#L40-L55). This makes VSCode's test explorer incorrectly display Minitest 'run' buttons above all our tests.
We were only using it in `emoji.rake`... and that wasn't even working with the latest version of Minitest. This commit refactors `emoji.rake` to work without minitest, and removes the dependency.
Before this change, if the "Plugins backend" task on GitHub CI
failed, we would get a huge amount of extra output at the end
just to show the command that rake ran which failed (the bin/turbo_rspec
command). This is useless and just makes it hard to see the failing
specs. If you need the full command, it's already output at the
top of the "Plugins backend" task in the GitHub CI.
Now forums can enroll their sites to be showcased in the Discourse [Discover](https://discourse.org/discover) directory. Once they enable the site setting `include_in_discourse_discover` to enroll their forum the `CallDiscourseHub` job will ping the `api.discourse.org/api/discover/enroll` endpoint. Then the Discourse Hub will fetch the basic details from the forum and add it to the review queue. If the site is approved then the forum details will be displayed in the `/discover` page.
