This is probably just temporary, but I'm going to leave the donation
goal meter off the sidebar for now, so I don't want the confusing
section in the middle of the Financials page saying that the goal is $0
and so on.
This starts showing the Exemplary badge to all users again (but only the
author can see the count still).
It also changes the "priority" of the .is-comment-exemplary and
.is-comment-new classes so that the stripe will show the new color when
a comment is both new and exemplary.
We've been using pts_lbsearch on the text file for a few weeks now, and
it's working fine. Checks generally seem to take about 10 ms, and that's
totally fine for the relatively uncommon events of registrations and
password changes.
This removes everything related to the previous Redis-based method,
which means we no longer need the second Redis server or the ReBloom
module.
The "last comment posted" link in the sidebar on a topic's comments page
was still considering removed comments, so if the last comment in a
topic was removed it would link to that one. That's not very useful for
anyone, so this excludes removed comments the same way that deleted ones
were already excluded.
This replaces the current method of using a Bloom filter in Redis to
check for breached passwords with searching the text file directly using
pts_lbsearch (https://github.com/pts/pts-line-bisect/).
I'm not removing the Redis-based method yet because I want to test the
performance of this first, but this is *far* simpler and doesn't have
the possibility for false positives like the Bloom filter does.
When a ValidationError comes up for a reason unrelated to webargs (for
example, if a user tries to set a password that's in the breached list),
this crashes when trying to unnest it, since it doesn't have the extra
level that webargs adds.
This is a bit ugly, but checks to see whether the extra level is there
first.
Previously, there wasn't any defined list of which permissions were
valid or not. You basically had to look through each model's __acl__
method to see what the possibilities were.
Using an enum will be less convenient when adding new permissions or
changing existing ones (since it will require a database migration), but
it makes it much easier to see what the valid options are, and will
prevent invalid permissions from being set up in the database.
This uses pytest's "markers" system to add markers to two special types
of tests:
* webtest - ones that use the WebTest library and are testing the actual
HTTP app, instead of executing code/functions directly
* html_validation - ones that are generating HTML output (via webtest)
and running it through the Nu HTML Checker to validate it.
The "webtest" marker is added automatically by checking whether a test
uses either of the webtest fixtures, and the html_validation one is
currently added manually to the only module that has those tests. In the
future, we could probably put HTML validation tests in their own folder
and mark them automatically based on the module's path or something
similar.
This also changes the default arguments for pytest to exclude these two
marked types of tests, and updates the git hooks so that webtests are
run pre-commit (but not HTML validation), and all tests are run
pre-push. Similar to the way we use prospector, this makes it so that
the very slow tests are only run before pushing.
Installs the Nu Html Checker and starts using it to validate the home
page's HTML: https://validator.github.io/validator/
Also includes fixes to some lists that were nested in an invalid way.
I mistakenly assumed that not setting the cookiejar argument when
creating a webtest TestApp would mean that no cookies would be retained
between requests, but that's wrong. If you don't pass a cookiejar, it
just automatically creates one for you. Because of this, logged-out
webtests would end up being logged-in after any test logged in.
This reduces the webtest_loggedout fixture's scope to function-level so
that it will be re-initiated on every test instead. It also stops
passing a cookiejar for the logged-in webtest, since that's unnecessary.
This reverts commit cb7be83877.
HTML Tidy seems to have various gaps in its validation that we've found
already, including one that's pretty much a deal-breaker for Tildes's
HTML: it doesn't think that <menu> is a valid parent for <li>.
We're looking at alternative validators still.
Adds the HTML Tidy library to the dev version, along with the pytidylib
wrapper for it, and a couple of tests that use it to validate the HTML
of the home page.
Includes a fix to the GitLab "Planned features" link that Tidy considers
invalid because it includes some un-encoded characters.
This was not a fun upgrade. webargs made some major changes to its
approaches in 6.0, which are mostly covered here:
https://webargs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/upgrading.html
To keep using it on Tildes, this commit had to make the following
changes:
- Write my own wrapper for use_kwargs that changes some of the default
behavior. Specifically, we want the location that data is being
loaded from to default to "query" (the query string) instead of
webargs' default of "json". We also needed to set the "unknown"
behavior on every schema to "exclude" so that the schemas would
ignore any data fields they didn't need, since the default behavior
is to throw an error, which happens almost everywhere because of
Intercooler variables and/or multiple use_kwargs calls for different
subsets of the data.
- All @pre_load hooks in schemas needed to be rewritten so that they
weren't modifying data in-place (copy to a new data dict first).
Because webargs is now passing all data through all schemas,
modifying in-place could result in an earlier schema modifying data
that would then be passed in modified form to the later ones.
Specifically, this caused an issue with tags on posting a new topic,
where we just wanted to treat the tags as a string, but TopicSchema
would convert it to a list in @pre_load.
- use_kwargs on every endpoint using non-query data needed to be
updated to support the new single-location approach, either replacing
an existing locations= with location=, or adding location="form",
since form data was no longer used by default.
- The code that parsed the errors returned by webargs/Marshmallow
ValidationErrors needed to update to handle the additional "level"
in the dict of errors, where errors are now split out by location
and then field, instead of only by field.
- A few other minor updates, like always passing a schema object
instead of a class, and never passing a callable (mostly just for
simplicity in the wrapper).
I thought this would be a larger task due to so many of the tools
updating to new versions, but the only thing necessary for this upgrade
was updating the name of one of the disabled pylint errors.
I temporarily pinned two packages that will require more significant
updates (webargs in requirements and prospector in requirements-dev).
Other than those, everything seemed to upgrade cleanly, except for an
issue with mypy that needed a "type: ignore" comment to circumvent.
Note that there is currently an issue with Salt's pip module being
unable to handle comments in a requirements file that include "-r", so I
had to manually edit the two .txt files after using pip-tools to remove
all lines with "via -r" comments in them. I've commented about this in
an issue on Salt's repo here:
https://github.com/saltstack/salt/issues/56514#issuecomment-665947887
Previously, when checking if a link had been posted before, there was no
restriction on the time limit, so even posts from years ago would come
up. This restricts it to only the last 6 months, which I think is a
pretty reasonable time period for reposting.
This isn't great, but will fix an error that's actively occurring when
someone filters to a single tag (tag= query var) and also has a filtered
topic tag with a space in it.
The "outer" width/height functions also include padding and border. Not
including these didn't make a noticeable difference for the left/right
flipping (the omissions almost canceled each other out), but the
discrepancy is much more noticeable on the top/bottom flipping.
Use bottom: 100% to make sure the menu does not overlap the
button (as with bottom: 0). If it overlaps the button then
that interferes with the button click handler.
Tags are stored in the search index as space-separated strings
with the periods removed. Searches for "parent.child" tags
were failing because of the period.
Removing period is okay for now because URL domains are not
currently indexed for search.
Trying to change the mode of this file (which often already exists)
fails on Windows. It seems fine to just not set it and let it be set to
the default.
This message is getting pretty outdated now, and should probably be done
in a different way regardless so that it doesn't need to be in the code,
especially since forks won't want the same message (or any message).
A better approach would probably be a consumer or cronjob watching for
new registrations in the event stream.
Prevents scrollbar from showing up when there is a
subscript on the last line of text.
Another option would have been overflow-y: hidden,
but that clips the text in the (pathological?) case
of deeply nested subscripts.
The generate_site_icons_css cronjob will create this file, but the site
won't work before it exists, so there's a (less than 5 min) gap where
the site is broken when first set up. This probably won't be noticeable
in dev/prod setups, but breaks things like CI setups where everything is
getting created freshly each time.
This makes sure that the file always exists on initial setup and
whenever the Salt states are re-run.
Fixes provisioning of a new VM.
Old versions like 2019.2.3 may be moved to an archive
and get an HTTP 404 error.
Relaxing the pinned version allows setup to find
newer patches, such as 2019.2.5.

By default, new top-level comments will only be allowed in the latest
topic from a particular set of scheduled topics. Replies to existing
comments in old topics will still be allowed - this is just intended to
prevent the cases where an old scheduled topic gets bumped back up due
to a reply and people inadvertently start adding new top-level comments
to it instead of the latest one.
This should be the correct behavior for most scheduled topics, but it
can be disabled for a particular schedule if needed.
This adds a new latest_topic_id column to topic_schedule and uses
triggers on the topics table to keep it correct.
This isn't really ideal, but it will simplify a few things related to
scheduled topics by quite a bit. For example, this commit also uses that
new data to much more easily populate the list of scheduled topics in a
group's sidebar, which previously required a subquery and windowing.
I think overall this is triggering more than I want, and getting in the
way of perfectly reasonable conversations. I like the idea still, but
needs adjusting.
Coronavirus topics have slowed down greatly now, with generally only
about 3 per day, and are almost all restricted to ~health.coronavirus,
so users can easily find (or avoid) them by just using that group.
