We previously had a system which would generate a 10x10px preview of images and add their URLs in a data-small-upload attribute. The client would then use that as the background-image of the `<img>` element. This works reasonably well on fast connections, but on slower connections it can take a few seconds for the placeholders to appear. The act of loading the placeholders can also break or delay the loading of the 'real' images.
This commit replaces the placeholder logic with a new approach. Instead of a 10x10px preview, we use imagemagick to calculate the average color of an image and store it in the database. The hex color value then added as a `data-dominant-color` attribute on the `<img>` element, and the client can use this as a `background-color` on the element while the real image is loading. That means no extra HTTP request is required, and so the placeholder color can appear instantly.
Dominant color will be calculated:
1. When a new upload is created
2. During a post rebake, if the dominant color is missing from an upload, it will be calculated and stored
3. Every 15 minutes, 25 old upload records are fetched and their dominant color calculated and stored. (part of the existing PeriodicalUpdates job)
Existing posts will continue to use the old 10x10px placeholder system until they are next rebaked
We observed that some sites seemingly put us in a tarpit when we attempt to pull hotlinked images. Increasing the timeout will help in these situations.
When a topic was published from a shared draft and it had tags, the
users watching the tags were not notified. The problem was that the
topics are usually created in a secret category and publishing it just
moves an existent topic to the target category, without making any
changes to the tags.
It's already included in the `ignored_columns` list in the group model. 03ffb0bf27/app/models/group.rb (L9)
Also, removed the `MigrateGroupFlairImages` onceoff job and spec.
This table holds associations between uploads and other models. This can be used to prevent removing uploads that are still in use.

This commit introduces a new site setting: `block_hotlinked_media`. When enabled, all attempts to hotlink media (images, videos, and audio) will fail, and be replaced with a linked placeholder. Exceptions to the rule can be added via `block_hotlinked_media_exceptions`.
`download_remote_image_to_local` can be used alongside this feature. In that case, hotlinked images will be blocked immediately when the post is created, but will then be replaced with the downloaded version a few seconds later.
This implementation is purely server-side, and does not impact the composer preview.
Technically, there are two stages to this feature:
1. `PrettyText.sanitize_hotlinked_media` is called during `PrettyText.cook`, and whenever new images are introduced by Onebox. It will iterate over all src/srcset attributes in the post HTML and check if they're allowed. If not, the attributes will be removed and replaced with a `data-blocked-hotlinked-src(set)` attribute
2. In the `CookedPostProcessor`, we iterate over all `data-blocked-hotlinked-src(set)` attributes and check whether we have a downloaded version of the media. If yes, we update the src to use the downloaded version. If not, the entire media element is replaced with a placeholder. The placeholder is labelled 'external media', and is a link to the offsite media.
Previously, with the default `editing_grace_period`, hotlinked images were pulled 5 minutes after a post is created. This delay was added to reduce the chance of automated edits clashing with user edits.
This commit refactors things so that we can pull hotlinked images immediately. URLs are immediately updated in the post's `cooked` HTML. The post's raw markdown is updated later, after the `editing_grace_period`.
This involves a number of behind-the-scenes changes including:
- Schedule Jobs::PullHotlinkedImages immediately after Jobs::ProcessPost. Move scheduling to after the `update_column` call to avoid race conditions
- Move raw changes into a separate job, which is delayed until after the ninja-edit window
- Move disable_if_low_on_disk_space logic into the `pull_hotlinked_images` job
- Move raw-parsing/replacing logic into `InlineUpload` so it can be easily be shared between `UpdateHotlinkedRaw` and `PullUserProfileHotlinkedImages`
Previously this mapping of **cooked** images was only being run for oneboxes. Now it runs for all images, so we can transform hotlinked images without needing to immediately update `raw`
Incorporates learnings from /t/64227:
* Changes the code to set access control posts in the rake
task to be an efficient UPDATE SQL query.
The original version was timing out with 312017 post uploads,
the new query took ~3s to run.
* Changes the code to mark uploads as secure/not secure in
the rake task to be an efficient UPDATE SQL query rather than
using UploadSecurity. This took a very long time previously,
and now takes only a few seconds.
* Spread out ACL syncing for uploads into jobs with batches of
100 uploads at a time, so they can be parallelized instead
of having to wait ~1.25 seconds for each ACL to be changed
in S3 serially.
One issue that still remains is post rebaking. Doing this serially
is painfully slow. We have a way to do this in sidekiq via PeriodicalUpdates
but this is limited by max_old_rebakes_per_15_minutes. It would
be better to fan this rebaking out into jobs like we did for the
ACL sync, but that should be done in another PR.
This commit migrates all bookmarks to be polymorphic (using the
bookmarkable_id and bookmarkable_type) columns. It also deletes
all the old code guarded behind the use_polymorphic_bookmarks setting
and changes that setting to true for all sites and by default for
the sake of plugins.
No data is deleted in the migrations, the old post_id and for_topic
columns for bookmarks will be dropped later on.
We have not used anything related to bookmarks for PostAction
or UserAction records since 2020, bookmarks are their own thing
now. Deleting all this is just cleaning up old cruft.
A bit of a mixed bag, this addresses several edge areas of bookmarks and makes them compatible with polymorphic bookmarks (hidden behind the `use_polymorphic_bookmarks` site setting). The main ones are:
* ExportUserArchive compatibility
* SyncTopicUserBookmarked job compatibility
* Sending different notifications for the bookmark reminders based on the bookmarkable type
* Import scripts compatibility
* BookmarkReminderNotificationHandler compatibility
This PR also refactors the `register_bookmarkable` API so it accepts a class descended from a `BaseBookmarkable` class instead. This was done because we kept having to add more and more lambdas/properties inline and it was very messy, so a factory pattern is cleaner. The classes can be tested independently as well.
Some later PRs will address some other areas like the discourse narrative bot, advanced search, reports, and the .ics endpoint for bookmarks.
This will make future changes to the 'pull hotlinked images' system easier. This commit should not introduce any functional change.
For now, the old post_custom_field data is kept in the database. This will be dropped in a future commit.
* FEATURE: Let sites add a sitemap.xml file.
This PR adds the same features discourse-sitemap provides to core. Sitemaps are only added to the robots.txt file if the `enable_sitemap` setting is enabled and `login_required` disabled.
After merging discourse/discourse-sitemap#34, this change will take priority over the sitemap plugin because it will disable itself. We're also using the same sitemaps table, so our migration won't try to create it
again using `if_not_exists: true`.
Sometimes we need to update a _lot_ of ACLs on S3 (such as when secure media
is enabled), and since it takes ~1s per upload to update the ACL, this is
best spread out over many jobs instead of having to do the whole thing serially.
In future, it will be better to have a job that can be run based on
a column on uploads (e.g. acl_stale) so we can track progress, similar
to how we can set the baked_version to nil to rebake posts.
raw_html posts (i.e. those which are pulled as part of our comments integration) don't go through our markdown pipeline, so `upload://` URLs are not supported. Running pull_hotlinked_images will break any images in the post.
In future we may add support for pulling hotlinked images in these posts. But for now, disabling it will stop it breaking images.
This commit introduces a new use_polymorphic_bookmarks site setting
that is default false and hidden, that will be used to help continuous
development of polymorphic bookmarks. This setting **should not** be
enabled anywhere in production yet, it is purely for local development.
This commit uses the setting to enable create/update/delete actions
for polymorphic bookmarks on the server and client side. The bookmark
interactions on topics/posts are all usable. Listing, searching,
sending bookmark reminders, and other edge cases will be handled
in subsequent PRs.
Comprehensive UI tests will be added in the final PR -- we already
have them for regular bookmarks, so it will just be a matter of
changing them to be for polymorphic bookmarks.
The meaning of reminder_at and reminder_last_sent_at changed after
commit 6d422a8033. A bookmark reminder
will fire only if reminder_last_sent_at is null, but before that it
fired everytime reminder_at was set. This is no longer true because
sometimes reminder_at continues to exist even after a reminder fired.
The user can select what happens with a bookamrk after it expires. New
option allow bookmark's reminder to be kept even after it has expired.
After a bookmark's reminder notification is created, the reminder date
will be highlighted in red until the user resets the reminder date.
User can do that using the new Clear Reminder button from the dropdown.
This allows text editors to use correct syntax coloring for the heredoc sections.
Heredoc tag names we use:
languages: SQL, JS, RUBY, LUA, HTML, CSS, SCSS, SH, HBS, XML, YAML/YML, MF, ICS
other: MD, TEXT/TXT, RAW, EMAIL
We validate the *format* of email addresses in many places with a match against
a regex, often with very slightly different syntax.
Adding a separate EmailAddressValidator simplifies the code in a few spots and
feels cleaner.
Deprecated the old location in case someone is using it in a plugin.
No functionality change is in this commit.
Note: the regex used at the moment does not support using address literals, e.g.:
* localpart@[192.168.0.1]
* localpart@[2001:db8::1]
This commit introduces two new APIs for handling unused uploads, one
can be used to exclude uploads in bulk when the data model allow and
the other one excludes uploads one by one.
Whenever we got a bounced email in the Email::Receiver we
previously would just set bounced: true on the EmailLog and
discard the status/diagnostic code. This commit changes this
flow to store the bounce error code (defined in the RFC at
https://www.iana.org/assignments/smtp-enhanced-status-codes/smtp-enhanced-status-codes.xhtml)
not just in the Email::Receiver, but also via webhook events
from other mail services and from SNS.
This commit does not surface the bounce error in the UI,
we can do that later if necessary.
This commit introduces our own handling and warning for Sidekiq's new 'non-json-serializable' warning. This decouples us from Sidekiq's own deprecation cycle, and allows us to use our own deprecation system. It also means that the dump/parse happens in test mode, which will help us to catch occurrences before they reach production.
Job arguments go via JSON, and so symbols will appear as strings in the Job's `#execute` method. The latest version of Sidekiq has started warning about this to reduce developer confusion.
The latest version of Sidekiq introduced a warning when jobs are queued with arguments which 'do not stringify to JSON safely'. In the vast majority of cases, this is because a hash is passed with symbols as keys. When those args are passed to the job, the keys will be stringified.
Our job wrapper already takes care of this issue by calling '.with_indifferent_access' on the args before passing them to `#execute`, so we don't need to change anything about our use. All we need to do is satisfy Sidekiq's warning system by 'stringifying' all the keys before enqueuing the job.
