We have the max_mentions_per_chat_message site settings; when a user tries
to mention more users than allowed, no one gets mentioned.
Chat messages may contain code-blocks with strings that look like mentions:
def foo
@bar + @baz
end
The problem is that the parsing code considers these as real mentions and counts
them when checking the limit. This commit fixes the problem.
This resolves the issue in #23064.
This issue arises because we need to produce the trees for the
auxilary bundles in `ember-cli-build.js` to pass these trees as
argument to `app.toTree()`. In order to produce these trees, the
code internally need to set up babel, which deep-clones the addons'
babel configs.
When using `@embroider/macros`, the addon's babel config includes a
`MacrosConfig` object which is not supposed to be touched until the
configs are "finalized". In a classic build, the finalization step
happens when `app.toTree()` is called. In Embroider, this happens
somewhere deeper inside `CompatApp`.
We need to produce these auxilary bundle trees before we call
`app.toTree()` or before constructing `CompatApp` because they
need to be passed as arguments to these functions. So this poses a
tricky chicken-and-egg timing issue. It was difficult to find a
workaround for this that works for both the classic and Embroider
build pipeline.
Of all the internal addons that uses the auxilary bundle pattern,
this only affets `pretty-text` as it is (for now, at least) the
only addon that uses `@embroider/macros`.
Taking a step back, the only reason (for now, at least) it was
introduced was for the loader shim for the `xss` package. This
package is actually used inside the lazily loaded markdown-it
bundle. However, we didn't have a better way to include the dep
into the lazy bundle directly, so it ends up going into the main
addon tree, and, inturns, the discourse core bundle.
In core's main loader shim manifest, we already have an entry for
`xss`. This was perhaps a mistake at the time, but it doesn't make
a difference – as mentioned above, `xss` needs to be included into
the main bundle anyway.
So, for now, the simpliest solution is to avoid `@embroider/macros`
in these internal addons for the time being. Ideally we would soon
absorb these back into core as lazily loaded (`import()`-ed) code
managed by Webpack when we fully switch over to Embroider.
This adds a new `loaderShim()` function to ensure certain modules
are present in the `loader.js` registry and therefore runtime
`require()`-able.
Currently, the classic build pipeline puts a lot of things in the
runtime `loader.js` registry automatically. For example, all of
the ember-auto-import packages are in there.
Going forward, and especially as we switch to the Embroider build
pipeline, this will not be guarenteed. We need to keep an eye on
what modules (packages) our "external" bundles (admin, wizard,
markdown-it, plugins, etc) are expecting to be present and put
them into the registry proactively.
This commit removes any logic in the app and in specs around
enable_experimental_hashtag_autocomplete and deletes some
old category hashtag code that is no longer necessary.
It also adds a `slug_ref` category instance method, which
will generate a reference like `parent:child` for a category,
with an optional depth, which hashtags use. Also refactors
PostRevisor which was using CategoryHashtagDataSource directly
which is a no-no.
Deletes the old hashtag markdown rule as well.
This feature will allow sites to define which emoji are not allowed. Emoji in this list should be excluded from the set we show in the core emoji picker used in the composer for posts when emoji are enabled. And they should not be allowed to be chosen to be added to messages or as reactions in chat.
This feature prevents denied emoji from appearing in the following scenarios:
- topic title and page title
- private messages (topic title and body)
- inserting emojis into a chat
- reacting to chat messages
- using the emoji picker (composer, user status etc)
- using search within emoji picker
It also takes into account the various ways that emojis can be accessed, such as:
- emoji autocomplete suggestions
- emoji favourites (auto populates when adding to emoji deny list for example)
- emoji inline translations
- emoji skintones (ie. for certain hand gestures)
This commit fleshes out and adds functionality for the new `#hashtag` search and
lookup system, still hidden behind the `enable_experimental_hashtag_autocomplete`
feature flag.
**Serverside**
We have two plugin API registration methods that are used to define data sources
(`register_hashtag_data_source`) and hashtag result type priorities depending on
the context (`register_hashtag_type_in_context`). Reading the comments in plugin.rb
should make it clear what these are doing. Reading the `HashtagAutocompleteService`
in full will likely help a lot as well.
Each data source is responsible for providing its own **lookup** and **search**
method that returns hashtag results based on the arguments provided. For example,
the category hashtag data source has to take into account parent categories and
how they relate, and each data source has to define their own icon to use for the
hashtag, and so on.
The `Site` serializer has two new attributes that source data from `HashtagAutocompleteService`.
There is `hashtag_icons` that is just a simple array of all the different icons that
can be used for allowlisting in our markdown pipeline, and there is `hashtag_context_configurations`
that is used to store the type priority orders for each registered context.
When sending emails, we cannot render the SVG icons for hashtags, so
we need to change the HTML hashtags to the normal `#hashtag` text.
**Markdown**
The `hashtag-autocomplete.js` file is where I have added the new `hashtag-autocomplete`
markdown rule, and like all of our rules this is used to cook the raw text on both the clientside
and on the serverside using MiniRacer. Only on the server side do we actually reach out to
the database with the `hashtagLookup` function, on the clientside we just render a plainer
version of the hashtag HTML. Only in the composer preview do we do further lookups based
on this.
This rule is the first one (that I can find) that uses the `currentUser` based on a passed
in `user_id` for guardian checks in markdown rendering code. This is the `last_editor_id`
for both the post and chat message. In some cases we need to cook without a user present,
so the `Discourse.system_user` is used in this case.
**Chat Channels**
This also contains the changes required for chat so that chat channels can be used
as a data source for hashtag searches and lookups. This data source will only be
used when `enable_experimental_hashtag_autocomplete` is `true`, so we don't have
to worry about channel results suddenly turning up.

**Known Rough Edges**
- Onebox excerpts will not render the icon svg/use tags, I plan to address that in a follow up PR
- Selecting a hashtag + pressing the Quote button will result in weird behaviour, I plan to address that in a follow up PR
- Mixed hashtag contexts for hashtags without a type suffix will not work correctly, e.g. #ux which is both a category and a channel slug will resolve to a category when used inside a post or within a [chat] transcript in that post. Users can get around this manually by adding the correct suffix, for example ::channel. We may get to this at some point in future
- Icons will not show for the hashtags in emails since SVG support is so terrible in email (this is not likely to be resolved, but still noting for posterity)
- Additional refinements and review fixes wil
This option will make it so the [quote] bbcode will always
include the HTML link to the quoted post, even if a topic_id
is not provided in the PrettyText#cook options. This is so
[quote] bbcode can be used in other places, like chat messages,
that always need the link and do not have an "off-topic" ID
to use.
Sometimes plugins need to have additional data or options available
when rendering custom markdown features/rules that are not available
on the default opts.discourse object. These additional options should
be namespaced to the plugin adding them.
```
Site.markdown_additional_options["chat"] = { limited_pretty_text_markdown_rules: [] }
```
These are passed down to markdown rules on opts.discourse.additionalOptions.
The main motivation for adding this is the chat plugin, which currently stores
chat_pretty_text_features and chat_pretty_text_markdown_rules on
the Site object via additions to the serializer, and the Site object is
not accessible to import via markdown rules (either through
Site.current() or through container.lookup). So, to have this working
for both front + backend code, we need to attach these additional options
from the Site object onto the markdown options object.
This commit extends the options which can be passed to
`PrettyText.markdown` so that which Markdown-it rules and Discourse
Markdown plugins to be used when rendering a text can be customizable.
Currently, this extension is mainly used by plugins.
It was not clear that replace watched words can be used to replace text
with URLs. This introduces a new watched word type that makes it easier
to understand.
This commit includes other various improvements to watched words.
auto_silence_first_post_regex site setting was removed because it overlapped
with 'require approval' watched words.
