This is to help generate random channels and chat
messages for local dev. This was removed in 12a18d4d55
presumably because it was not worth refactoring at the
time.
I've only added these tasks:
- `rake chat:message:populate\[113,20\]` (channel_id, count)
- Generates the count of messages for a channel ID provided,
otherwise uses a random channel and 200 count.
- `rake chat:category_channel:populate`
- Creates a chat channel for a random category.
- `rake chat🧵populate\[132,5\]` (channel_id, message_count)
- Creates a thread with N messages in the specified channel,
and enables threading in that channel if necessary
There was an issue with channel archiving, where at times the topic
creation could fail which left the archive in a bad state, as read-only
instead of archived. This commit does several things:
* Changes the ChatChannelArchiveService to validate the topic being
created first and if it is not valid report the topic creation errors
in the PM we send to the user
* Changes the UI message in the channel with the archive status to reflect
that topic creation failed
* Validate the new topic when starting the archive process from the UI,
and show the validation errors to the user straight away instead of
creating the archive record and starting the process
This also fixes another issue in the discourse_dev config which was
failing because YAML parsing does not enable all classes by default now,
which was making the seeding rake task for chat fail.
* File.exists? is deprecated and removed in Ruby 3.2 in favor of
File.exist?
* Dir.exists? is deprecated and removed in Ruby 3.2 in favor of
Dir.exist?
After every new random record created using the `dev:populate` rake task a new Discourse event will be triggered. So the plugins can modify the records if needed.
