This is a low severity security fix because it requires a logged in
admin user to update a site setting via the API directly to an invalid
value.
The fix adds validation for the affected site settings, as well as a
secondary fix to prevent injection in the event of bad data somehow
already exists.
If `SiteSetting.log_search_queries` is enabled 500 errors will occur
when searching if the master db is down. This fix allows searching to
still work under these conditions.
* FEATURE: admin/user exports are compressed using the zip format
* Update translations. Theme exporter now exports .zip file. Theme importer supports .zip and .gz files
* Fix controller test, updated locale and skip saving the csv export to disk
In order for this to work the Backuper stores a couple of site settings
in the new backup_metadata table, because the old setting values might
not be available on restore anymore.
It's hard to see which columns have been remapped when remapping prints
lots of "0 rows affected" lines. This changes it to output the row count
only for affected columns.
Groups can now be marked as visible to "logged on users". All automatic groups (except `everyone`) are now visible to "logged on users", previously they were marked as public but suppressed in the group page for non-staff.
The global setting disable_search_queue_threshold
(DISCOURSE_DISABLE_SEARCH_QUEUE_THRESHOLD) which default to 1 second was
added.
This protection ensures that when the application is unable to keep up with
requests it will simply turn off search till it is not backed up.
To disable this protection set this to 0.
The behaviour of #TERM in search has been amended
1. We try category or subcategory slugs
2. We try tags
3. We try tag-groups
The term `hello #my-group` will search for all posts tagged with any of
the tags in the tag group `My Group`
Future work may be introducing a slug cache here or caching it in the table
but the assumption is that the number of tag groups will not be huge
This can cause unbound CPU usage in some cases, and excessive logging in other cases. This commit moves redis readonly information into the local process, but maintains the DistributedCache for postgres readonly state.
* DEV: Add a new way to run specs in parallel with better output
This commit:
1. adds a new executable, `bin/interleaved_rspec` which works much like
`rspec`, but runs the tests in parallel.
2. adds a rake task, `rake interleaved:spec` which runs the whole test
suite.
3. makes autospec use this new wrapper by default. You can disable this
by running `PARALLEL_SPEC=0 rake autospec`.
It works much like the `parallel_tests` gem (and relies on it), but
makes each subprocess use a machine-readable formatter and parses this
output in order to provide a better overall summary.
(It's called interleaved, because parallel was taken and naming is
hard).
* Make popen3 invocation safer
* Use FileUtils instead of shelling out
* DRY up reporter
* Moved summary logic into Reporter
* s/interleaved/turbo/g
* Move Reporter into its own file
* Moved run into its own class
* Moved Runner into its own file
* Move JsonRowsFormatter under TurboTests
* Join on threads at the end
* Acted on feedback from eviltrout
This fixes a condition where an intermittent db connection could cause
invalid site settings to be stored
It also removes a catch all we had.
Somewhere around Rails 5 `db:create` started wanting full environment
this is a problem for Discourse since it needs to boot up data from the
db.
This removes the catch all and surgically adds a db / redis bypass to
db:create task.
In sidekiq, jobs are run in multiple threads within the same process. `cd` affects the entire process, so can cause unexpected issues in other running jobs.
Sometimes we would like to create a base image without any DB access, this
assists in creating custom base images with custom plugins that already
includes `public/assets`
Following this change set you can run:
```
SPROCKETS_CONCURRENT=1 DONT_PRECOMPILE_CSS=1 SKIP_DB_AND_REDIS=1 RAILS_ENV=production bin/rake assets:precompile
```
Then it is straight forward to create a base image without needing a DB or
Redis.
This previously was a hot path in topic view. Avoids an expensive active
record operation and instead perform SQL directly which is far more
targeted and efficient
* Support private uploads in S3
* Use localStore for local avatars
* Add job to update private upload ACL on S3
* Test multisite paths
* update ACL for private uploads in migrate_to_s3 task
* Expose a new plugin outlet. Pass group model to the group-member-dropdown so it can be accessed by plugins
* Added controller tests for group custom fields. update custom fields when updating a group
We now show if a queued or flagged post is a reply to another when in
the review queue. It's especially helpful for queued posts where
normally they are linked to the topic where they are created, and you
have no context about the reply.
Note that this will only apply to new queued posts going forward.
Previously queued posts will not show the "in reply to"
During profiling looking up topic users popped up as a hot path, this
change more than halved the amount of work it does
It reduces object allocations and method calls and avoids repeate translation
of common terms
This adds support for DISCOURSE_ENABLE_PERFORMANCE_HTTP_HEADERS
when set to `true` this will turn on performance related headers
```text
X-Redis-Calls: 10 # number of redis calls
X-Redis-Time: 1.02 # redis time in seconds
X-Sql-Commands: 102 # number of SQL commands
X-Sql-Time: 1.02 # duration in SQL in seconds
X-Queue-Time: 1.01 # time the request sat in queue (depends on NGINX)
```
To get queue time NGINX must provide: HTTP_X_REQUEST_START
We do not recommend you enable this without thinking, it exposes information
about what your page is doing, usually you would only enable this if you
intend to strip off the headers further down the stream in a proxy
Previously as soon as any override was defined we would regress to the slow
path for locale lookups. Additionally if `raise: true` was specified which
rails likes to add in views we would bypass the cache
The new design manages to use the fast path for many more cases
Before the locking here was added, replying to a post and liking a post
at roughly the same time could cause a deadlock.
Liking a post grabs an update lock on the post and then on the topic (to
update like counts).
We now lock the replied to post before getting the topic lock so that we
can update the replied to post later without causing a deadlock.
This was a fairly serious regression on sites with large (mega) topics,
however it was limited to staff.
The issue here is the query was using filtered_post_ids which I'd
assumed was already windowed to the current page, when in fact it was
all the ids in the topic. This fix corrects it by using the correct
windowed collection.
You can now add javascript files under `/javascripts/*` in a theme, and they will be loaded as if they were included in core, or a plugin. If you give something the same name as a core/plugin file, it will be overridden. Support file extensions are `.js.es6`, `.hbs` and `.raw.hbs`.
Previously theme setting descriptions were defined in the `settings.yml` file like this:
```
setting_name:
default: "My Default Value"
description:
en: "English description"
fr: "French description"
```
This commit allows developers to store the localised descriptions in the theme locale files instead:
```
en:
theme_metadata:
description: Theme Description
settings:
setting_name: "The localised description for setting_name"
```
SSO uses a special param to username suggester that whitelists a username
due to previous work we amended our lookup logic and started ignoring this
whitelist.
The fix ensures we always respect it, and also improves on the original
implementation that forgot to normalize the username.
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)
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
* FEATURE: detect theme errors and catch them
* Bump COMPILER_VERSION
* Feedback
* Override eslint no console for one line
* Can't use our ajax method
* remove emoji from translation file
`rake posts:recover_uploads_from_index`
Searches through all missing uploads in the cluster, if it finds one it
tries to find it in the "upload index file" and creates a new upload for
it.
Previously we were only catching one type of data export, the new job will
catch every csv export we have
Job is pretty safe as it filters on system user id / pm with a particular
slug
Historically we would keep the user data export posts around but delete
the uploads.
This leaves a lot of broken uploads in the system.
This rake task allows us to clean up old mess.
Filename on disk may mismatch sha of file in some old 1X setups. This will
attempt to recover file even if sha1 mismatches. We had an old bug that
caused this.
This also adds `uploads:fix_relative_upload_links` which attempts to replace
urls of the format `/upload/default/...` with `upload://`
Rebaking posts can be expensive instead of blocking here simply mark posts
for rebake.
We can then work through them faster in other jobs, plus this should not
hold of a datacenter migration.
Previously this rake job would only run on a single site which is a bit
misleading
This also adds `VERBOSE=1 rake posts:missing_uploads` that will provide a
full report of missing uploads
This allows you to wait up to N seconds for the smoke test url to come up
in some cases you want to kick off the smoke test prior to having the smoke
test env ready to accept connections
Net::HTTP always returns ASCII-8BIT encoding. File.read auto-detects the encoding. This leads to an encoding inconsistency between a fresh download, and a cached download. This commit ensures all downloaded files are treated equally, by always returning the cached version from the filesystem, even during initial download.
One symptom of this problem is during theme exports: https://meta.discourse.org/t/116907

Having different behavior for staff and regular users can make it confusing for admins to understand how their configuration changes affect regular users
Previously username suggester would give up after 100 attempts at getting
a username and fallback to random string.
This amends the logic so we do all the work of figuring out a good username
in SQL and avoids a large amount of queries in cases where a lot of usernames
were used up.
This corrects an issue on sites with large numbers of anon users
Use the cooked version of the post and the quote to compare their content in
order to take into account the "typographer" option of the markdown pipeline.
We were blocking user registrations with same username and password,
but allowing usernames to be changed to be same as password later.
Also disallow names to be the same as password.
* English shouldn't fallback to any other locale
* Calculate fallback for default locale if it isn't English (useful for en_US)
* Reuse the fallback locale list when outputting translations to JavaScript
