When a user archives a personal message, they are redirected back to the
inbox and will refresh the list of the topics for the given filter.
Publishing an event to the user results in an incorrect incoming message
because the list of topics has already been refreshed.
This does mean that if a user has two tabs opened, the non-active tab
will not receive the incoming message but at this point we do not think
the technical trade-offs are worth it to support this feature. We
basically have to somehow exclude a client from an incoming message
which is not easy to do.

At this point in time, we do not think supporting unread and new when an
admin is looking at another user's messages is worth supporting.

Previously, a group's `default_notification_level` change will only affect the users added after it.

PresenceChannel aims to be a generic system for allow the server, and end-users, to track the number and identity of users performing a specific task on the site. For example, it might be used to track who is currently 'replying' to a specific topic, editing a specific wiki post, etc.
A few key pieces of information about the system:
- PresenceChannels are identified by a name of the format `/prefix/blah`, where `prefix` has been configured by some core/plugin implementation, and `blah` can be any string the implementation wants to use.
- Presence is a boolean thing - each user is either present, or not present. If a user has multiple clients 'present' in a channel, they will be deduplicated so that the user is only counted once
- Developers can configure the existence and configuration of channels 'just in time' using a callback. The result of this is cached for 2 minutes.
- Configuration of a channel can specify permissions in a similar way to MessageBus (public boolean, a list of allowed_user_ids, and a list of allowed_group_ids). A channel can also be placed in 'count_only' mode, where the identity of present users is not revealed to end-users.
- The backend implementation uses redis lua scripts, and is designed to scale well. In the future, hard limits may be introduced on the maximum number of users that can be present in a channel.
- Clients can enter/leave at will. If a client has not marked itself 'present' in the last 60 seconds, they will automatically 'leave' the channel. The JS implementation takes care of this regular check-in.
- On the client-side, PresenceChannel instances can be fetched from the `presence` ember service. Each PresenceChannel can be used entered/left/subscribed/unsubscribed, and the service will automatically deduplicate information before interacting with the server.
- When a client joins a PresenceChannel, the JS implementation will automatically make a GET request for the current channel state. To avoid this, the channel state can be serialized into one of your existing endpoints, and then passed to the `subscribe` method on the channel.
- The PresenceChannel JS object is an ember object. The `users` and `count` property can be used directly in ember templates, and in computed properties.
- It is important to make sure that you `unsubscribe()` and `leave()` any PresenceChannel objects after use
An example implementation may look something like this. On the server:
```ruby
register_presence_channel_prefix("site") do |channel|
next nil unless channel == "/site/online"
PresenceChannel::Config.new(public: true)
end
```
And on the client, a component could be implemented like this:
```javascript
import Component from "@ember/component";
import { inject as service } from "@ember/service";
export default Component.extend({
presence: service(),
init() {
this._super(...arguments);
this.set("presenceChannel", this.presence.getChannel("/site/online"));
},
didInsertElement() {
this.presenceChannel.enter();
this.presenceChannel.subscribe();
},
willDestroyElement() {
this.presenceChannel.leave();
this.presenceChannel.unsubscribe();
},
});
```
With this template:
```handlebars
Online: {{presenceChannel.count}}
<ul>
{{#each presenceChannel.users as |user|}}
<li>{{avatar user imageSize="tiny"}} {{user.username}}</li>
{{/each}}
</ul>
```
The generate_presigned_put endpoint for direct external uploads
(such as the one for the uppy-image-uploader) records allowed
S3 metadata values on the uploaded object. We use this to store
the sha1-checksum generated by the UppyChecksum plugin, for later
comparison in ExternalUploadManager.
However, we were not doing this for the create_multipart endpoint,
so the checksum was never captured and compared correctly.
Also includes a fix to make sure UppyChecksum is the last preprocessor to run.
It is important that the UppyChecksum preprocessor is the last one to
be added; the preprocessors are run in order and since other preprocessors
may modify the file (e.g. the UppyMediaOptimization one), we need to
checksum once we are sure the file data has "settled".
Users can invite people to topic and they will be automatically
redirected to the topic when logging in after signing up. This commit
ensures a "invited_to_topic" notification is created when the invite is
redeemed.
The same notification is used for the "Notify" sharing method that is
found in share topic modal.
Since ad3ec5809f when a user chooses
the Dismiss New... option in the New topic list, we send a request
to topics/reset-new.json with ?tracked=false as the only parameter.
This then uses Topic as the scope for topics to dismiss, with no
other limitations. When we do topic_scope.pluck(:id), it gets the
ID of every single topic in the database (that is not deleted) to
pass to TopicsBulkAction, causing a huge query with severe performance
issues.
This commit changes the default scope to use
`TopicQuery.new(current_user).new_results(limit: false)`
which should only use the topics in the user's New list, which
will be a much smaller list, depending on the user's "new_topic_duration_minutes"
setting.
There are certain design decisions that were made in this commit.
Private messages implements its own version of topic tracking state because there are significant differences between regular and private_message topics. Regular topics have to track categories and tags while private messages do not. It is much easier to design the new topic tracking state if we maintain two different classes, instead of trying to mash this two worlds together.
One MessageBus channel per user and one MessageBus channel per group. This allows each user and each group to have their own channel backlog instead of having one global channel which requires the client to filter away unrelated messages.
This pull request introduces the endpoints required, and the JavaScript functionality in the `ComposerUppyUpload` mixin, for direct S3 multipart uploads. There are four new endpoints in the uploads controller:
* `create-multipart.json` - Creates the multipart upload in S3 along with an `ExternalUploadStub` record, storing information about the file in the same way as `generate-presigned-put.json` does for regular direct S3 uploads
* `batch-presign-multipart-parts.json` - Takes a list of part numbers and the unique identifier for an `ExternalUploadStub` record, and generates the presigned URLs for those parts if the multipart upload still exists and if the user has permission to access that upload
* `complete-multipart.json` - Completes the multipart upload in S3. Needs the full list of part numbers and their associated ETags which are returned when the part is uploaded to the presigned URL above. Only works if the user has permission to access the associated `ExternalUploadStub` record and the multipart upload still exists.
After we confirm the upload is complete in S3, we go through the regular `UploadCreator` flow, the same as `complete-external-upload.json`, and promote the temporary upload S3 into a full `Upload` record, moving it to its final destination.
* `abort-multipart.json` - Aborts the multipart upload on S3 and destroys the `ExternalUploadStub` record if the user has permission to access that upload.
Also added are a few new columns to `ExternalUploadStub`:
* multipart - Whether or not this is a multipart upload
* external_upload_identifier - The "upload ID" for an S3 multipart upload
* filesize - The size of the file when the `create-multipart.json` or `generate-presigned-put.json` is called. This is used for validation.
When the user completes a direct S3 upload, either regular or multipart, we take the `filesize` that was captured when the `ExternalUploadStub` was first created and compare it with the final `Content-Length` size of the file where it is stored in S3. Then, if the two do not match, we throw an error, delete the file on S3, and ban the user from uploading files for N (default 5) minutes. This would only happen if the user uploads a different file than what they first specified, or in the case of multipart uploads uploaded larger chunks than needed. This is done to prevent abuse of S3 storage by bad actors.
Also included in this PR is an update to vendor/uppy.js. This has been built locally from the latest uppy source at d613b849a6. This must be done so that I can get my multipart upload changes into Discourse. When the Uppy team cuts a proper release, we can bump the package.json versions instead.
* FIX: Revoking admin or moderator status doesn't require refresh to delete/anonymize/merge user
On the /admin/users/<id>/<username> page, there are action buttons that are either visible or hidden depending on a few fields from the AdminDetailsSerializer: `can_be_deleted`, `can_be_anonymized`, `can_be_merged`, `can_delete_all_posts`.
These fields are updated when granting/revoking admin or moderator status. However, those updates were not being reflected on the page. E.g. if a user is granted moderation privileges, the 'anonymize user' and 'merge' buttons still appear on the page, which is inconsistent with the backend state of the user. It requires refreshing the page to update the state.
This commit fixes that issue, by syncing the client model state with the server state when handling a successful response from the server. Now, when revoking privileges, the buttons automatically appear without refreshing the page. Similarly, when granting moderator privileges, the buttons automatically disappear without refreshing the page.
* Add detailed user response to spec for changed routes.
Add tests to verify that the revoke_moderation, grant_moderation, and revoke_admin routes return a response formatted according to the AdminDetailedUserSerializer.
This is useful in the DiscourseHub mobile app, currently the app queries
the `about.json` endpoint, which can raise a CORS issue in some cases,
for example when the site only accepts logins from an external provider.
When a user signs up via an external auth method, a new link is added to the signup modal which allows them to connect an existing Discourse account. This will only happen if:
- There is at least 1 other auth method available
and
- The current auth method permits users to disconnect/reconnect their accounts themselves
This handles a few edge cases which are extremely rare (due to the UI layout), but still technically possible:
- Ensure users are authenticated before attempting association.
- Add a message and logic for when a user already has an association for a given auth provider.
Plugins listening on the `before_auth` callback can interact with the request object and access data like the user agent or the remote IP address. We'll later store this data in the user record, but it might not exist at this point if we're authenticating a new account.
We shouldn't be checking if a user is allowed to do an action in the logger. We should be checking it just before we perform the action. In fact, guardians in the logger can make things even worse in case of a security bug. Let's say we forgot to check user's permissions before performing some action, but we still have a call to the guardian in the logger. In this case, a user would perform the action anyway, and this action wouldn't even be logged!
I've checked all cases and I confirm that we're safe to delete this calls from the logger.
I've added two calls to guardians in admin/user_controller. We didn't have security bugs there, because regular users can't access admin/... routes at all. But it's good to have calls to guardian in these methods anyway, neighboring methods have them.
This adds a few different things to allow for direct S3 uploads using uppy. **These changes are still not the default.** There are hidden `enable_experimental_image_uploader` and `enable_direct_s3_uploads` settings that must be turned on for any of this code to be used, and even if they are turned on only the User Card Background for the user profile actually uses uppy-image-uploader.
A new `ExternalUploadStub` model and database table is introduced in this pull request. This is used to keep track of uploads that are uploaded to a temporary location in S3 with the direct to S3 code, and they are eventually deleted a) when the direct upload is completed and b) after a certain time period of not being used.
### Starting a direct S3 upload
When an S3 direct upload is initiated with uppy, we first request a presigned PUT URL from the new `generate-presigned-put` endpoint in `UploadsController`. This generates an S3 key in the `temp` folder inside the correct bucket path, along with any metadata from the clientside (e.g. the SHA1 checksum described below). This will also create an `ExternalUploadStub` and store the details of the temp object key and the file being uploaded.
Once the clientside has this URL, uppy will upload the file direct to S3 using the presigned URL. Once the upload is complete we go to the next stage.
### Completing a direct S3 upload
Once the upload to S3 is done we call the new `complete-external-upload` route with the unique identifier of the `ExternalUploadStub` created earlier. Only the user who made the stub can complete the external upload. One of two paths is followed via the `ExternalUploadManager`.
1. If the object in S3 is too large (currently 100mb defined by `ExternalUploadManager::DOWNLOAD_LIMIT`) we do not download and generate the SHA1 for that file. Instead we create the `Upload` record via `UploadCreator` and simply copy it to its final destination on S3 then delete the initial temp file. Several modifications to `UploadCreator` have been made to accommodate this.
2. If the object in S3 is small enough, we download it. When the temporary S3 file is downloaded, we compare the SHA1 checksum generated by the browser with the actual SHA1 checksum of the file generated by ruby. The browser SHA1 checksum is stored on the object in S3 with metadata, and is generated via the `UppyChecksum` plugin. Keep in mind that some browsers will not generate this due to compatibility or other issues.
We then follow the normal `UploadCreator` path with one exception. To cut down on having to re-upload the file again, if there are no changes (such as resizing etc) to the file in `UploadCreator` we follow the same copy + delete temp path that we do for files that are too large.
3. Finally we return the serialized upload record back to the client
There are several errors that could happen that are handled by `UploadsController` as well.
Also in this PR is some refactoring of `displayErrorForUpload` to handle both uppy and jquery file uploader errors.
The cache_fullpath for the Stylesheet::Manager was the same for
every test runner in a parallel test environment, so when other
specs or other places e.g. the stylesheets_controller_spec ran
rm -rf Stylesheet::Manager.cache_fullpath this caused errors
for other specs running that went through the
Stylesheet::Manager::Builder#compile path, causing the error
```
Errno::ENOENT:
No such file or directory @ rb_sysopen
```
Also fixed the stylesheet_controller which was interpolating Rails.root + CACHE_PATH
itself instead of just using Stylesheet::Manager.cache_fullpath
* DEV: Return 400 instead of 500 for invalid top period
This change will prevent a fatal 500 error when passing in an invalid
period param value to the `/top` route.
* Check if the method exists first
I couldn't get `ListController.respond_to?` to work, but was still able
to check if the method exists with
`ListController.action_methods.include?`. This way we can avoid relying
on the `NoMethodError` exception which may be raised during the course
of executing the method.
* Just check if the period param value is valid
* Use the new TopTopic.validate_period method
* Copy remove_member to new `leave` method
* Remove unneeded code from the leave method
* Rearrange the leave method
* Remove unneeded code from the remove_member method
* Add tests
* Implement on the client side
* Copy the add_members method to the new join method
* Remove unneeded code from the join method
* Rearrange the join method
* Remove unneeded stuff from the add_members method
* Extract add_user_to_group method
* Implement of the client side
* Tests
* Doesn't inline users.uniq
* Return promise from join.then()
* Remove unnecessary begin and end
* Revert "Return promise from join.then()"
This reverts commit bda84d8d
* Remove variable already_in_group
This is confusing because you're running the tests on the older version
of Ember. Use `/tests` for Ember CLI, and `/qunit` when using Rails'
asset pipeline (but only if REALLY necessary!)
Will show the last 6 seen users as filtering suggestions when typing @ in quick search. (Previously the user suggestion required a character after the @.)
This also adds a default limit of 6 to the user search query, previously the backend was returning 20 results but a maximum of 6 results was being shown anyway.
When configured, all topics in the category inherits the slow mode
duration from the category's default.
Note that currently there is no way to remove the slow mode from the
topics once it has been set.
When the Forever option is selected for suspending a user, the user is suspended for 1000 years. Without customizing the site’s text, this time period is displayed to the user in the suspension email that is sent to the user, and if the user attempts to log back into the site. Telling someone that they have been suspended for 1000 years seems likely to come across as a bad attempt at humour.
This PR special case messages when a user suspended or silenced forever.
Flips content_security_policy_frame_ancestors default to enabled, and
removes HTTP_REFERER checks on embed requests, as the new referer
privacy options made the check fragile.
* No need to return anything except a status code from the server
* Switch a badge state before sending a request and then switch it back in case of an error
