Previously, `/u/by-external/{id}` would only work for 'Discourse SSO' systems. This commit adds a new 'provider' parameter to the URL: `/u/by-external/{provider}/{id}`
This is compatible with all auth methods which have migrated to the 'ManagedAuthenticator' pattern. That includes all core providers, and also popular plugins such as discourse-oauth2-basic and discourse-openid-connect.
The new route is admin-only, since some authenticators use sensitive information like email addresses as the external id.
* DEV: Add framework for filtered plugin registers
Plugins often need to add values to a list, and we need to filter those lists at runtime to ignore values from disabled plugins. This commit provides a re-usable way to do that, which should make it easier to add new registers in future, and also reduce repeated code.
Follow-up commits will migrate existing registers to use this new system
* DEV: Migrate user and group custom field APIs to plugin registry
This gives us a consistent system for checking plugin enabled state, so we are repeating less logic. API changes are backwards compatible
This commit is for a frequently requested task on meta so that only 1
API call is needed instead of 3!
In order to create a user via the api and not have them receive an
activation email you can pass in the `active=true` flag. This prevents
sending an email, but it is only half of the solution and puts the db in
a weird state where it has an active user with an unconfirmed email.
This commit fixes that and ensures that if the `active=true` flag is set
the user's email is also marked as confirmed.
This change only applies to admins using the API.

* DEPRECATION: Remove support for api creds in query params
This commit removes support for api credentials in query params except
for a few whitelisted routes like rss/json feeds and the handle_mail
route.
Several tests were written to valid these changes, but the bulk of the
spec changes are just switching them over to use header based auth so
that they will pass without changing what they were actually testing.
Original commit that notified admins this change was coming was created
over 3 months ago: 2db2003187
* fix tests
* Also allow iCalendar feeds

This is so users with huge amount of bookmarks do not have to wait a long time to see results.
* Add a bookmark list and list serializer to server-side to be able to handle paging and load more URL
* Use load-more component to load more bookmark items, 20 at a time in user activity
* Change the way current user is loaded for bookmark ember models because it was breaking/losing resolvedTimezone when loading more items
* FEATURE: add setting `auto_approve_email_domains` to auto approve users
This commit adds a new site setting `auto_approve_email_domains` to
auto approve users based on their email address domain.
Note that if a domain already exists in `email_domains_whitelist` then
`auto_approve_email_domains` needs to be duplicated there as well,
since users won’t be able to register with email address that is
not allowed in `email_domains_whitelist`.
* Update config/locales/server.en.yml

On some sites when bootstrapping communities it is helpful to bootstrap
with a "light weight" invite code.
Use the site setting `invite_code` to set a global invite code.
In this case the administrator can share the code with
a community which is very easy to remember and then anyone who has
that code can easily register accounts.
People without the invite code are not allowed account registration.
Global invite codes are less secure than indevidual codes, in that they
tend to leak in the community however in some cases when starting a brand
new community the security guarantees of invites are not needed.
Introduces `/user-cards.json`
Also allows the client-side user model to be passed an existing promise when loading, so that multiple models can share the same AJAX request

* when the user creates a TOTP second factor method we want
to show them a nicer error if they forget to add a name
or the code from the app, instead of the param missing error
* also add a client-side check for this and for security key name,
no need to bother the server if we can help it
Anonymous users could query the invite json and see counts and
summaries which is not allowed in the UX of Discourse.
This commit has those endpoints return a 403 unless the user is
allowed to invite.
Now if a group is visible but unmentionable, users can search for it
when composing by typing with `@`, but it will be rendered without the
grey background color.
It will also no longer pop up a JIT warning saying "You are about to
mention X people" because the group will not be mentioned.
Adds a new route `/u/{username}/card.json`, which has a reduced number of fields. This change is behind a hidden site setting, so we can test compatibility before rolling out.
