There have been too many flaky tests as a result of leaking state in
Redis so it is easier to resolve them by ensuring we flush Redis'
database.
Locally on my machine, calling `Discourse.redis.flushdb` takes around
0.1ms which means this change will have very little impact on test
runtimes.
This method is a huge footgun in production, since it calls
the Redis KEYS command. From the Redis documentation at
https://redis.io/commands/keys/:
> Warning: consider KEYS as a command that should only be used in
production environments with extreme care. It may ruin performance when
it is executed against large databases. This command is intended for
debugging and special operations, such as changing your keyspace layout.
Don't use KEYS in your regular application code.
Since we were only using `delete_prefixed` in specs (now that we
removed the usage in production in 24ec06ff85)
we can remove this and instead rely on `use_redis_snapshotting` on the
particular tests that need this kind of clearing functionality.
It's very easy to forget to add `require 'rails_helper'` at the top of every core/plugin spec file, and omissions can cause some very confusing/sporadic errors.
By setting this flag in `.rspec`, we can remove the need for `require 'rails_helper'` entirely.
Fixes `Rack::Lint::LintError: a header value must be a String, but the value of 'Retry-After' is a Integer`. (see: 14a236b4f0/lib/rack/lint.rb (L676))
I found it when I got flooded by those warning a while back in a test-related accident 😉 (ember CLI tests were hitting a local rails server at a fast rate)
* DEPRECATION: Remove support for api creds in query params
This commit removes support for api credentials in query params except
for a few whitelisted routes like rss/json feeds and the handle_mail
route.
Several tests were written to valid these changes, but the bulk of the
spec changes are just switching them over to use header based auth so
that they will pass without changing what they were actually testing.
Original commit that notified admins this change was coming was created
over 3 months ago: 2db2003187
* fix tests
* Also allow iCalendar feeds

The message_bus performs a fair amount of work prior to hijacking requests
this change ensures that if there is a situation where the server is flooded
message_bus will inform client to back off for 30 seconds + random(120 secs)
This back-off is ultra cheap and happens very early in the middleware.
It corrects a situation where a flood to message bus could cause the app
to become unresponsive
MessageBus update is here to ensure message_bus gem properly respects
Retry-After header and status 429.
Under normal state this code should never trigger, to disable raise the
value of DISCOURSE_REJECT_MESSAGE_BUS_QUEUE_SECONDS, default is to tell
message bus to go away if we are queueing for 100ms or longer
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
