Per Google, sites are encouraged to upgrade from Universal Analytics v3 `analytics.js` to v4 `gtag.js` for Google Analytics tracking. We're giving admins the option to stay on the v3 API or migrate to v4. Admins can change the implementation they're using via the `ga_version` site setting. Eventually Google will deprecate v3, but our implementation gives admins the choice on what to use for now.
We chose this implementation to make the change less error prone, as many site admins are using custom events via the v3 UA API. With the site stetting defaulted to `v3_analytics`, site analytics won't break until the admin is ready to make the migration.
Additionally, in the v4 implementation, we do not enable automatic pageview tracking (on by default in the v4 API). Instead we rely on Discourse's page change API to report pageviews on transition to avoid double-tracking.
Per Google, sites are encouraged to upgrade from `analytics.js` to `gtag.js` for Google Analytics tracking. This commit updates core Discourse to use the new `gtag.js` API Google is asking sites to use. This API has feature parity with `analytics.js` but does not use trackers.
DEV: Replace instances of Discourse.base_uri with Discourse.base_path
This is clearer because the base_uri is actually just a path prefix. This continues the work started in 555f467.
- Define the CSP based on the requested domain / scheme (respecting force_https)
- Update EnforceHostname middleware to allow secondary domains, add specs
- Add URL scheme to anon cache key so that CSP headers are cached correctly
There are three modifiers:
- serialize_topic_excerpts (boolean)
- csp_extensions (array of strings)
- svg_icons (array of strings)
When multiple themes are active, the values will be combined. The combination method varies based on the setting. CSP/SVG arrays will be combined. serialize_topic_excerpts will use `Enumerable#any`.
This allows us to use `sourceURL` which otherwise does not work. In the
future we hope to have proper source maps in development mode and
disable this again.
The QUnit rake task starts a server in test mode. We need a tweak to allow dynamic CSP hostnames in test mode. This tweak is already present in development mode.
To allow CSP to work, the browser host/port must match what the server sees. Therefore we need to disable the enforce_hostname middleware in test mode. To keep rspec and production as similar as possible, we skip enforce_hostname using an environment variable.
Also move the qunit rake task to use unicorn, for consistency with development and production.
- Refactor source_url to avoid using eval in development
- Precompile handlebars in development
- Include template compilers when running qunit
- Remove unsafe-eval in development CSP
- Include unsafe-eval only for qunit routes in development
Plugins can add it via API if they need to use `eval`:
```
extend_content_security_policy(script_src: [:unsafe_eval])
```
See https://meta.discourse.org/t/104243
* FEATURE: allow plugins and themes to extend the default CSP
For plugins:
```
extend_content_security_policy(
script_src: ['https://domain.com/script.js', 'https://your-cdn.com/'],
style_src: ['https://domain.com/style.css']
)
```
For themes and components:
```
extend_content_security_policy:
type: list
default: "script_src:https://domain.com/|style_src:https://domain.com"
```
* clear CSP base url before each test
we have a test that stubs `Rails.env.development?` to true
* Only allow extending directives that core includes, for now
