We now use Symfony's Translation component. Yay! We get more powerful pluralisation and better a fallback mechanism. Will want to implement the caching mechanism at some point too. The API is replicated in JavaScript, which could definitely use some testing.
Validators have been refactored so that they are decoupled from models completely (i.e. they simply validate arrays of user input). Language packs should include Laravel's validation messages.
ref #267
- Reorganised all namespaces and class names for consistency and structure. Following PSR bylaws (Abstract prefix, Interface/Trait suffix).
- Move models into root of Core, because writing `use Flarum\Core\Discussion` is nice. Namespace the rest by type. (Namespacing by entity was too arbitrary.)
- Moved some non-domain stuff out of Core: Database, Formatter, Settings.
- Renamed config table and all references to "settings" for consistency.
- Remove Core class and add url()/isInstalled()/inDebugMode() as instance methods of Foundation\Application.
- Cleanup, docblocking, etc.
- Improvements to HTTP architecture
- API and forum/admin Actions are now actually all the same thing (simple PSR-7 Request handlers), renamed to Controllers.
- Upgrade to tobscure/json-api 0.2 branch.
- Where possible, moved generic functionality to tobscure/json-api (e.g. pagination links). I'm quite happy with the backend balance now re: #262
- Improvements to other architecture
- Use Illuminate's Auth\Access\Gate interface/implementation instead of our old Locked trait. We still use events to actually determine the permissions though. Our Policy classes are actually glorified event subscribers.
- Extract model validation into Core\Validator classes.
- Make post visibility permission stuff much more efficient and DRY.
- Renamed Flarum\Event classes for consistency. ref #246
- `Configure` prefix for events dedicated to configuring an object.
- `Get` prefix for events whose listeners should return something.
- `Prepare` prefix when a variable is passed by reference so it can be modified.
- `Scope` prefix when a query builder is passed.
- Miscellaneous improvements/bug-fixes. I'm easily distracted!
- Increase default height of post composer.
- Improve post stream redraw flickering in Safari by keying loading post placeholders with their IDs. ref #451
- Use a PHP JavaScript minification library for minifying TextFormatter's JavaScript, instead of ClosureCompilerService (can't rely on external service!)
- Use UrlGenerator properly in various places. closes#123
- Make Api\Client return Response object. closes#128
- Allow extensions to specify custom icon images.
- Allow external API/admin URLs to be optionally specified in config.php. If the value or "url" is an array, we look for the corresponding path inside. Otherwise, we append the path to the base URL, using the corresponding value in "paths" if present. closes#244
Improved consistency for existing core translation key names.
See flarum/core#265
- Completely overhauled core en.yml
- Replaced existing key names in all core JS files to match
- Extracted a hardcoded string in IndexPage.js
- Combined two app.trans calls in DiscussionControls.js
- Removed hardcoded spaces from LogInModal.js and SignUpModal.js
- Added two new keys from DiscussionControls.js (soft delete)
- Created two new “reused keys” to YML to accommodate same
Enables quick bidirectional bindings. So instead of this:
<input value={prop()} oninput={m.withAttr('value', prop)}/>
... we can do this:
<input bidi={prop}/>
The activity system we were using was built around a separate table.
Whenever the user posted something, or deleted a post, we would sync
the table. The advantage of this was that we could aggregate activity
of all different types very efficiently.
It turns out that it came with a huge disadvantage: there was no
efficient way to enforce permissions on activity. If a user posted
something in a private tag, everyone could still see it on their
activity feed. My stopgap solution was to only sync activity for posts
that are viewable by guests, but that was way too limited.
It also turns out that aggregating activity of different types is
really not that useful, especially considering most of it is the user
making posts. So I've gotten rid of that whole overly-complicated
system, and just made the user profile display separate lists of posts
and discussions, retrieved from those respective APIs. The discussions
page is an actual discussion list too, which is pretty cool.
It's still technically possible to aggregate different activity types
(basically just aggregate API responses together), but we can do that
later if there's a need for it.
This is probably my favourite commit of the day :)
- Fix composer crashing/not showing alert on error
- Make a general ValidationException which takes an array of field ⇒
messages to be outputted nicely by the API
- Get rid of Bootstrap (except we still rely on some JS)
- Use BEM class names
- Rework variables/theme config
- Fix various bugs, including some on mobile
The CSS is still not ideal – it needs to be cleaned up some more. But
that can be a focus for after beta.
- Use JSX for templates
- Docblock/comment everything
- Mostly passes ESLint (still some work to do)
- Lots of renaming, refactoring, etc.
CSS hasn't been updated yet.
- Return all discussion post IDs from API requests which add/remove
posts, so the post stream updates appropriately. Related to #146
- Always unload posts that are two pages away, no matter how fast
you’re scrolling
- Retrieve posts from cache instead of reloading them
- Fix various bugs. Maybe #152, needs confirmation
- Use contextual namespaces within Flarum\Core
- Clean up and docblock everything
- Refactor Activity/Notification blueprint stuff
- Refactor Formatter stuff
- Refactor Search stuff
- Upgrade to JSON-API 1.0
- Removed “addedPosts” and “removedPosts” relationships from discussion
API. This was used for adding/removing event posts after renaming a
discussion etc. Instead we should make an additional request to get all
new posts
Todo:
- Fix Extenders and extensions
- Get rid of repository interfaces
- Fix other bugs I’ve inevitably introduced
