When viewing a topic, we execute two queries to fetch the topic's
public topic timer and slow mode timer. The former query happens to be
able to use a unique index but the latter has to do a seq scan which is
slow. The query itself is not expensive but since viewing a topic is a
hot path, the little cuts add up overtime and the query itself
contributes significantly to the load of the database.
When a user views a topic that contains a topic timer to publish to a
restricted category, an error occurs on the client side because the user
does not have access to information about the category.
This commit fixes it such that the topic timer is not shown to the user
if the user does not have access to the category.
This PR allows entering a float value for topic timers e.g. 0.5 for 30 minutes when entering hours, 0.5 for 12 hours when entering days. This is achieved by adding a new column to store the duration of a topic timer in minutes instead of the ambiguous both hours and days that it could be before.
This PR has ommitted the post migration to delete the duration column in topic timers; it will be done in a subsequent PR to ensure that no data is lost if the UPDATE query to set duration_mintues fails.
I have to keep the old keyword of duration in set_or_create_topic_timer for backwards compat, will remove at a later date after plugins are updated.
Moves the topic timer jobs from being scheduled ahead of time with enqueue_at to a 5 minute scheduled run like bookmark reminders, in a new job called Jobs::EnqueueTopicTimers. Backwards compatibility is maintained by checking if an existing topic timer job is enqueued in sidekiq for the timer, and if it is not running it inside the new job.
The functionality to close/open a topic if it is in the opposite state still remains in the after_save block of TopicTimer, with further commentary, which is used for Open/Close Temporarily.
This also removes the ensure_consistency! functionality of topic timers as it is no longer needed; the new job will always pick up the timers because they are not stored in a fragile state of sidekiq.
Splits the `ToggleTopicClosed` job into two distinct `OpenTopic` and `CloseTopic` jobs to make the code clearer. The old job cannot be deleted yet because of outstanding sidekiq schedules, so a todo has been added to do so later this year.
Also replaced mentions of `topic_status_update` with `topic_timer` in some files, because the `topic_status_update` model is obsolete and replaced by topic timer.
Added some shortcut methods for checking if a topic is open/whether a user can change an open topic.
This PR removes the user reminder topic timers, because that system has been supplanted and improved by bookmark reminders. The option is removed from the UI and all existing user reminder topic timers are migrated to bookmark reminders.
Migration does this:
* Get all topic_timers with status_type 5 (reminders)
* Gets all bookmarks where the user ID and topic ID match
* Loops through the found topic timers
* If there is no bookmark for the OP of the topic, then we just create a bookmark with a reminder
* If there is a bookmark for the OP of the topic and it does **not** have a reminder set, then just
update it with the topic timer reminder
* If there is a bookmark for the OP of the topic with a reminder then just discard the topic timer
* Cancels all outstanding user reminder topic timers
* **Trashes (not deletes) all user reminder topic timers**
Notes:
* For now I have left the user reminder topic timer job class in place; this is so the jobs can be cancelled in the migration. It and the specs will be deleted in the next PR.
* At a later date I will write a migration to delete all trashed user topic timers. They are not deleted here in case there are data issues and they need to be recovered.
* A future PR will change the UI of the topic timer modal to make it look more like the bookmark modal.
This commit is addressing an issue where it is possible that there could
be multiple topic timer jobs running to close a topic or a weird race
condition state causing a topic that was just closed to be re-opened.
By removing the logic from the Topic Timer model into the Topic Timer
controller endpoint we isolate the code that is used for setting an
auto-open or an auto-close timer to just that functionality making the
topic timer background jobs safer if multiple are running.
Possibly in the future if we would like this logic back in the model a
refactor will be needed where we actually pass in the auto-close and
auto-open action instead of mixing it with the close and open
action that is currently being passed to the controller.
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
