Joffrey JAFFEUX 908371191f PERF: removes N+1 when loading events list (#34841)
There was two issues:
- using the `TopicListItemSerializer` was fetching way more than we need
and also expecting includes from other plugins (assign for example),
switching to our own dedicated serializer seems a better choice here
- event dates were not preloaded
- fixed a spec which was supposed to track N+1 but was commented

I also improved our fabricator to limit the boilerplate needed.

We might need few more indices to improve perf event more here but going
to merge this first.

Discourse Calendar

Adds the ability to create a dynamic calendar in the first post of a topic.

Topic discussing the plugin itself can be found here: https://meta.discourse.org/t/discourse-calendar/97376

Customization

Events

  • discourse_post_event_event_will_start this DiscourseEvent will be triggered one hour before an event starts
  • discourse_post_event_event_started this DiscourseEvent will be triggered when an event starts
  • discourse_post_event_event_ended this DiscourseEvent will be triggered when an event ends

Custom Fields

Custom fields can be set in plugin settings. Once added a new form will appear on event UI. These custom fields are available when a plugin event is triggered.

Holidays

See an incorrect or missing holiday? Familiarize yourself with the holiday definition Syntax. Then make your updates in the vendor/holiday/definitions directory.

Generate updated holidays as follows.

cd vendor/holidays

# Generate holiday definitions
rake generate:definitions

Install the plugin and switch to the discourse root(not the plugin directory).

# Collect all holiday regions into assets/javascripts/lib/regions.js
bin/rails javascript:update_constants

Interactions with Other Plugins

You can use an element of this plugin with the Right Sidebar Blocks component. You'll want to ensure the desired route is enabled via the events calendar categories setting. In Right Sidebar Block's settings, the block name will be upcoming-events-list, and the params use this syntax, for example MMMM D, YYYY.
