Previously we would bypass touching `Topic.updated_at` for whispers and post
recovery / deletions.
This meant that certain types of caching can not be done where we rely on
this information for cache accuracy.
For example if we know we have zero unread topics as of yesterday and whisper
is made I need to bump this date so the cache remains accurate
This is only half of a larger change but provides the groundwork.
Confirmed none of our serializers leak out Topic.updated_at so this is safe
spot for this info
At the moment edits still do not change this but it is not relevant for the
unread cache.
This commit also cleans up some specs to use the new `eq_time` matcher for
millisecond fidelity comparison of times
Previously `freeze_time` would fudge this which is not that clean.
It is not a setting, and only relevant in specs. The new API is:
```
Jobs.run_later! # jobs will be thrown on the queue
Jobs.run_immediately! # jobs will run right away, avoid the queue
```
SiteSettingExtension triggers message bus which re-establishes a
DB connection in `SiteSettingExtension#process_message`. That happens
concurrently and a test that requires a connection to the db will
fail when the reconnection is happening.
This commit introduces a new helper to enable transactional fixtures
when testing multisite. This would show up as tests that passed the
first time then failed the second time due to stale data being leftover.
This moves us away from the delayed drops pattern which
was problematic on two counts. First, it uses a hardcoded "delay for"
duration which may be too short for certain deployment strategies.
Second, delayed drop doesn't ensure that it only runs after
the latest application code has been deployed. If the migration runs
and the application code fails to deploy, running the migration after
"delay for" has been met will cause the application to blow up.
The new strategy allows post deployment migrations to be skipped if the
env `SKIP_POST_DEPLOYMENT_MIGRATIONS` is provided.
```
SKIP_POST_DEPLOYMENT_MIGRATIONS=1 rake db:migrate
-> deploy app servers
SKIP_POST_DEPLOYMENT_MIGRATIONS=0 rake db:migrate
```
To aid with the generation of a post deployment migration, a generator
has been added. Simply run `rails generate post_migration`.
This refactors it so "Defaults provider" is only responsible for "defaults"
Locale handling and management of locale settings is moved back into
SiteSettingExtension
This eliminates complex state management using DistributedCache and makes
it way easier to test SiteSettingExtension
This allows our request specs to report exceptions so we can debug
May have a few false positives but generally should be quiet
TODO only wire magic in for request specs, currently happens for all
This means then when a service is load balanced and you reach rate limits
there was a case where they counting was way off
also remove the stub from clock_gettime cause we need to be super careful with
it, so we should probably just stub by hand when needed
This refactors handling of s3 so it can be specified via GlobalSetting
This means that in a multisite environment you can configure s3 uploads
without actual sites knowing credentials in s3
It is a critical setting for situations where assets are mirrored to s3.
This change-set allows setting different defaults for different locales.
It also:
- Adds extensive testing around site setting validation
- raises deprecation error if site setting has the default property based on env
- relocated site settings for dev and tests in the initializer
- deprecated client_setting in the site setting's loading process
- ensure it raises when a enum site setting being set
- default_locale is promoted to `required` category.
- fixes incorrect default setting and validation
- fixes ensure type check for site settings
- creates a benchmark for site setting
- sets reasonable defaults for Chinese
Rails yanked out observers many many years ago, instead the functionality
was yanked out to a gem that is very lightly maintained.
For example: if we want to upgrade to rails 5 there is no published gem
Internally the usage of observers had quite a few problem.
The series of refactors renamed a bunch of classes to give us more clarity
and removed some magic.
The opensearch.xml results in a "site search engine" being added to
Chrome, while the sitelinks search tag results in "Search this website"
being added to Google Search.
Since rspec-rails 3, the default installation creates two helper files:
* `spec_helper.rb`
* `rails_helper.rb`
`spec_helper.rb` is intended as a way of running specs that do not
require Rails, whereas `rails_helper.rb` loads Rails (as Discourse's
current `spec_helper.rb` does).
For more information:
https://www.relishapp.com/rspec/rspec-rails/docs/upgrade#default-helper-files
In this commit, I've simply replaced all instances of `spec_helper` with
`rails_helper`, and renamed the original `spec_helper.rb`.
This brings the Discourse project closer to the standard usage of RSpec
in a Rails app.
At present, every spec relies on loading Rails, but there are likely
many that don't need to. In a future pull request, I hope to introduce a
separate, minimal `spec_helper.rb` which can be used in tests which
don't rely on Rails.
