* DEV: More robust processing of URLs
The previous `UrlHelper.encode_component(CGI.unescapeHTML(UrlHelper.unencode(uri))` method would naively process URLs, which could result in a badly formed response.
`Addressable::URI.normalized_encode(uri)` appears to deal with these edge-cases in a more robust way.
* DEV: onebox should use UrlHelper
* DEV: fix spec
* DEV: Escape output when rendering local links
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
* `rescue nil` is a really bad pattern to use in our code base.
We should rescue errors that we expect the code to throw and
not rescue everything because we're unsure of what errors the
code would throw. This would reduce the amount of pain we face
when debugging why something isn't working as expexted. I've
been bitten countless of times by errors being swallowed as a
result during debugging sessions.
If a hostname does an https redirect we cache that so next
lookup does not incur it.
Also, only rate limit per ip once per final destination
Raise final destination protection to 1000 ip lookups an hour
This refactors handling of s3 so it can be specified via GlobalSetting
This means that in a multisite environment you can configure s3 uploads
without actual sites knowing credentials in s3
It is a critical setting for situations where assets are mirrored to s3.
