* Optional import of custom user fields from phpBB 3.1+
* Optional import of likes from phpBB3
Requires the phpBB "Thanks for posts" extension
* Fix import of bookmarks from phpBB3
* Update `created_at` of existing user
* Support mapping of phpBB forums to existing Discourse categories
This is in addition to the ability of merging phpBB forums and importing into newly created Discourse categories.
1. bbcode hashes don't always have exactly 8 characters.
2. colors aren't always hex values, it can be a color string ("red", "blue", etc).
3. The closing tag of smileys doesn't always include a `:` character (the start of the regex was already right for this particular issue)

Setting a random value in the interval 1 week ago ... now works better
because this spreads digest scheduling over a week because digests are
sent one week from the date of the last digest.
Over the years we accrued many spelling mistakes in the code base.
This PR attempts to fix spelling mistakes and typos in all areas of the code that are extremely safe to change
- comments
- test descriptions
- other low risk areas
Wrote up a new script to import from Higher Logic. Nothing too crazy going on here. Two major things about this script:
It requires you to convert a Microsoft SQL file to a format MySQL can read.
Higher Logic stores posts (at least in the case of the import I ran) with the email thread shown in the post body. The script does its best to truncate this out, but the logic may need to be improved on future imports. For the import I ran, it worked just fine as is. 🤷♂️
Made some improvements to the Vanilla MySQL script -- mainly because not all SQL imports require use of the VanillaBodyParser. Still left it as an option to turn on and use if so desired. Also added subcategory support, importing of likes, and solve status.
This is an importer I wrote to restore some users that were
accidentally deleted for being purged as old staged users or old
unactivated users.
It reads from CSV files exported from a discourse sql backup.
When running an import script there are many site settings that are
changed but we reset them back to where they were originally before the
import. However, there are two settings that we don't roll back:
```
purge_unactivated_users_grace_period_days
purge_deleted_uploads_grace_period_days
```
which could have some unintended consequences.
My first question is do we *really* have to change these settings? I'm
not a huge fan of changing someones settings without them really knowing
they were changed.
If we really do have to change these settings here is my proposed PR
where we don't alter the `purge_unactivated_users_grace_period_days` if
it has been disabled.
As I'm writing this another change we could make is that we don't change
either of these site settings if we detect that they aren't set to the
default values.
The drive behind this PR is that there is a discourse instance which
relies on staged users as part of their workflow and this setting was
changed by accident via the import script causing users to be deleted
that shouldn't have been.

Refactors script to follow conventions of other importers and adds some features including like import, processing of post raw text, and, if needed, SSO import.
FEATURE: new rake task to update first_post_created_at column
The not-equal operator (`<>`) in PostgreSQL does not compare values
with NULL. We should instead use `IS DISTINCT FROM` when comparing
values with NULL.
* PERF: Dematerialize topic_reply_count
It's only ever used for trust level promotions that run daily, or compared to 0. We don't need to track it on every post creation.
* UX: Add symbol in TL3 report if topic reply count is capped
* DEV: Drop user_stats.topic_reply_count column
We have the `# frozen_string_literal: true` comment on all our
files. This means all string literals are frozen. There is no need
to call #freeze on any literals.
For files with `# frozen_string_literal: true`
```
puts %w{a b}[0].frozen?
=> true
puts "hi".frozen?
=> true
puts "a #{1} b".frozen?
=> true
puts ("a " + "b").frozen?
=> false
puts (-("a " + "b")).frozen?
=> true
```

I'm not clear why changing only the `wait_for_url` address was necessary and not also the `get` a few lines above, but this change seems to work for me on both literatecomputing.com Groups and a public group.
Checking if all records have been imported uses a temp table in PostgreSQL. This fails when pgbouncer is used unless the temp table is created inside a transaction.
* Detects mostly all attachments and it's a lot faster
* Parses user properties in Ruby instead of the DB, because that's less errorprone
* Imports user avatars
* Imports topic views by users
* Better handling of quotes and YouTube links
* Adds ability to map forums to categories and tags as well as ignore forums.
* Fixes regular expression for detecting attachments in posts.
* Handles "remote attachments" 😮 by inserting a link.
* Imports view counts for topics.
* Handles incorrect references of parent posts.
* Better handling of quotes.
* Finds a lot more attachments by trying to replace various Unicode characters in filenames.
* Customizable email subject prefixes to remove "Re" and "Fwd" as well as localized prefixes.
* Configuration option for prefixes like [FOO] or (BAR) which can be replaced with tags during import.
* Bugfix: Import script might have skipped some users due to missing ORDER BY.
Posts without a user probably shouldn't happen unless there was some direct database tampering, but data like that has been seen in the wild.
The importer will assign those posts to the "system" user.
The following methods have long been deprecated in ruby due to flaws in their implementation per http://blade.nagaokaut.ac.jp/cgi-bin/vframe.rb/ruby/ruby-core/29293?29179-31097:
URI.escape
URI.unescape
URI.encode
URI.unencode
escape/encode are just aliases for one another. This PR uses the Addressable gem to replace these methods with its own encode, unencode, and encode_component methods where appropriate.
I have put all references to Addressable::URI here into the UrlHelper to keep them corralled in one place to make changes to this implementation easier.
Addressable is now also an explicit gem dependency.
We like to stay as close as possible to latest with rubocop cause the cops
get better.
This update required some code changes, specifically the default is to avoid
explicit returns where implicit is done
Also this renames a few rules
Zeitwerk simplifies working with dependencies in dev and makes it easier reloading class chains.
We no longer need to use Rails "require_dependency" anywhere and instead can just use standard
Ruby patterns to require files.
This is a far reaching change and we expect some followups here.
Trying to automate the login into a Google account is quite hard. This makes the crawler use the content of a cookies.txt file instead. It also removes a couple of deprecation warnings and adds some color to the output.
* REFACTOR: Rename SiteSetting.disable_edit_notifications to disable_system_edit_notifications
- The older name could cause some confusion because the setting does not disable all edit notifications, only system ones.
* FIX: Add frozen_string_literal: true in the migration
* DEV: Deprecate 'disable_edit_notifications'
This also corrects FileHelper.download so it supports "follow_redirect"
correctly (it used to always follow 1 redirect) and adds a `validate_url`
param that will bypass all uri validation if set to false (default is true)
* FEATURE: Add attachment support to XenForo importer
If `ATTACHMENT_DIR` is provided, importer will scan each imported post
for `[GALLERY]` and `[ATTACH]` tags, attempt to import the referenced files
as Discourse uploads and replace the tags with Discourse markup.
References to files which cannot be imported are stripped.
NOTE: This only imports attachments which are referenced in imported
posts. Any XenForo media or files which are not referenced in any post
using `[ATTACH]` or `[GALLERY]` tags will not be imported. The goal is to
ensure that we don't have posts with missing images and unsightly
markup, NOT to ensure that all attachments are migrated.

This reduces chances of errors where consumers of strings mutate inputs
and reduces memory usage of the app.
Test suite passes now, but there may be some stuff left, so we will run
a few sites on a branch prior to merging
This removes all uses of both `send` and `public_send` from consumers of
SiteSetting and instead introduces a `get` helper for dynamic lookup
This leads to much cleaner and safer code long term as we are always explicit
to test that a site setting is really there before sending an arbitrary
string to the class
It also removes a couple of risky stubs from the auth provider test
`Upload#url` is more likely and can change from time to time. When it
does changes, we don't want to have to look through multiple tables to
ensure that the URLs are all up to date. Instead, we simply associate
uploads properly to `UserProfile` so that it does not have to replicate
the URLs in the table.
