* FEATURE: Return subcategories on categories endpoint
When using the API subcategories will now be returned nested inside of
each category response under the `subcategory_list` param. We already
return all the subcategory ids under the `subcategory_ids` param, but
you then would have to make multiple separate API calls to fetch each of
those subcategories. This way you can get **ALL** of the categories
along with their subcategories in a single API response.
The UI will not be affected by this change because you need to pass in
the `include_subcategories=true` param in order for subcategories to be
returned.
In a follow up PR I'll add the API scoping for fetching categories so
that a readonly API key can be used for the `/categories.json` endpoint. This
endpoint should be used instead of the `/site.json` endpoint for
fetching a sites categories and subcategories.
* Update PR based on feedback
- Have spec check for specific subcategory
- Move comparison check out of loop
- Only populate subcategory list if option present
- Remove empty array initialization
- Update api spec to allow null response
* More PR updates based on feedback
- Use a category serializer for the subcategory_list
- Don't include the subcategory_list param if empty
- For the spec check for the subcategory by id
- Fix spec to account for param not present when empty
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
Uncategorized was sometimes visible even if allow_uncategorized_topics
was false. This was especially happening on mobile, if at least one
topic was uncategorized.
Previously, moving a category into another one, that already had a child category of that name (but with a non-conflicting slug) would cause a 500 error:
```
# PG::UniqueViolation:
# ERROR: duplicate key value violates unique constraint "unique_index_categories_on_name"
# DETAIL: Key (COALESCE(parent_category_id, '-1'::integer), name)=(5662, Amazing Category 0) already exists.
```
It now returns 422, and shows the same message as when you're renaming a category: "Category Name has already been taken".
The category model already has a default value for `color` and
`text_color` so they don't need to be required via the API. The ember UI
already requires that colors be selected.
The name of the category also doesn't need to be required when updating
the category either because we are already passing in the id for the
category we want to change.
These changes improve the api experience because you no longer have to
lookup the category name, color, or text color before updating a single
category attribute. When creating a category the name is still required.

* DEV: Use `render_json_error` (Adds specs for Admin::GroupsController)
* DEV: Use a specific error on blank category slug (Fixes a `render_json_error` warning)
* DEV: Use a specific error on reviewable claim conflict (Fixes a `render_json_error` warning)
* DEV: Use specific errors in Admin::UsersController (Fixes `render_json_error` warnings)
* FIX: PublishedPages error responses
* FIX: TopicsController error responses (There was an issue of two separate `Topic` instances for the same record. This makes sure there's only one up-to-date instance.)
When 'categories topics' setting is set to 0, the system will
automatically try to find a value to keep the two columns (categories
and topics) symmetrical.
The value is computed as 1.5x the number of top level categories and at
least 5 topics will always be returned.
Previously people were not consistent about mocking which left internals in
a fragile state when running subfolder specs.
This introduces a simple helper `set_subfolder` which you can use to set
the subfolder for the spec. It takes care of proper configuration of subfolder
and teardown.
```
# usage
set_subfolder "/my_amazing_subfolder"
```
You should no longer stub base_uri or global_settings
In a category's settings, the Tags tab has two new fields to
specify the number of tags that must be added to a topic
from a tag group. When creating a new topic, an error will be
shown to the user if the requirement isn't met.
This change both speeds up specs (less strings to allocate) and helps catch
cases where methods in Discourse are mutating inputs.
Overall we will be migrating everything to use #frozen_string_literal: true
it will take a while, but this is the first and safest move in this direction
A new checkbox has been added to the Tags tab of the category settings modal
which is used when some tags and/or tag groups are restricted to the category,
and all other unrestricted tags should also be allowed.
Default is the same as the previous behaviour: only allow the specified set of
tags and tag groups in the category.
It is not a setting, and only relevant in specs. The new API is:
```
Jobs.run_later! # jobs will be thrown on the queue
Jobs.run_immediately! # jobs will run right away, avoid the queue
```
Previously if you wanted to have jobs execute in test mode, you'd have
to do `SiteSetting.queue_jobs = false`, because the opposite of queue
is to execute.
I found this very confusing, so I created a test helper called
`run_jobs_synchronously!` which is much more clear about what it does.
### navigate_to_first_post_after_read setting for categories
When enabled on categories logged on users will return to OP after
reading the entire category. (useful for documentation categories)
### num_auto_bump_daily
Set a number of topics that will automatically bump daily on a category.
- Every 15 minutes we will check if any category has this setting
- Categories with the setting are shuffled
- We exclude pinned, closed, category description and archived topics
- Maximum of 1 topic for the list of categories is bumped till limit reached per category
- We always try to bump oldest first
- Limit is elastic using a RateLimiter that ensures that we only bump N per day
Also some minor organisation on category settings
Froze strings on category.rb
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.
