* FEATURE: Normalize the service worker route
Update cache headers so they are not immutable outside of the rails app
Add the ability to purge the service worker cache from localhost
Rails -> nginx will pass immutable flags so the file is cached until reloaded.
In most cases, nginx will have its cache flushed on rebuild (new image)
For those needing dynamic re-caching (such as upgrading via the UI),
a rake task for flushing the service worker script is provided
through `assets:flush_sw`
This new `DISCOURSE_MAXMIND_BACKUP_PATH` can be used a secondary location
for maxmind db. That way a build machine, for example can cache it on the
host and reuse between builds.
Also per 5bfeef77 added proper error raising for download fails from
dedicated rake task
This also moves "refresh_maxmind_db_during_precompile_days" to a global
setting, it did not make sense in a site setting
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
#b9d82818 makes enormous improvements to our bootstrap time, however going
to still keep compress for now despite the cost and watch it for a few weeks
* Do not brotli all locales in precompile
* Try without gzip
* uglify without compressing, always gzip
* skip uglify for unused locales
* FIX: Uglifier needs harmony for ES6 compatibility
* Use node uglifier if available
* Minor refactor
The compress brotli functionality is no longer optional, this has worked
well for years. The name of the ENV var is also confusing cause it does
not have a `DISCOURSE_` prefix which caused issues with the web upgrader
Brotli support is now unconditionally on
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.
This feature introduces the concept of themes. Themes are an evolution
of site customizations.
Themes introduce two very big conceptual changes:
- A theme may include other "child themes", children can include grand
children and so on.
- A theme may specify a color scheme
The change does away with the idea of "enabled" color schemes.
It also adds a bunch of big niceties like
- You can source a theme from a git repo
- History for themes is much improved
- You can only have a single enabled theme. Themes can be selected by
users, if you opt for it.
On a technical level this change comes with a whole bunch of goodies
- All CSS is now compiled using a custom pipeline that uses libsass
see /lib/stylesheet
- There is a single pipeline for css compilation (in the past we used
one for customizations and another one for the rest of the app
- The stylesheet pipeline is now divorced of sprockets, there is no
reliance on sprockets for CSS bundling
- CSS is generated with source maps everywhere (including themes) this
makes debugging much easier
- Our "live reloader" is smarter and avoid a flash of unstyled content
we run a file watcher in "puma" in dev so you no longer need to run
rake autospec to watch for CSS changes
