* Custom emoji
- In OStatus: `<link rel="emoji" name="coolcat" href="http://..." />`
- In ActivityPub: `{ type: "Emoji", name: ":coolcat:", href: "http://..." }`
- In REST API: Status object includes `emojis` array (`shortcode`, `url`)
- Domain blocks with reject media stop emojis
- Emoji file up to 50KB
- Web UI handles custom emojis
- Static pages render custom emojis as `<img />` tags
Side effects:
- Undo #4500 optimization, as I needed to modify it to restore
shortcode handling in emojify()
- Formatter#plaintext should now make sure stripped out line-breaks
and paragraphs are replaced with newlines
* Fix emoji at the start not being converted
* Fix ActivityPub handling of replies when LOCAL_DOMAIN ≠ WEB_DOMAIN (#4895)
For all intents and purposes, `local_url?` is used to check if an URL refers
to the Web UI or the various API endpoints of the local instances. Those things
reside on `WEB_DOMAIN` and not `LOCAL_DOMAIN`.
* Change local_url? spec, as all URLs handled by Mastodon are based on WEB_DOMAIN
When a new user confirms their e-mail, bootstrap their home timeline
by automatically following a set of accounts. By default, all local
admin accounts (that are unlocked). Can be customized by new admin
setting (comma-separated usernames, local and unlocked only)
In before, the method uses stream_entry id as status id, so replied status was wrongly selected.
This PR uses StatusFinder which was introduced with `Api::Web::EmbedsController`.
* Fix language filter codes
CLD3 returns BCP-47 language identifier, filter settings expect
identifiers in the ISO 639-1 format. Convert between formats,
and exclude duplicate languages from filter choices (zh-CN->zh)
* Fix zh name
* Decouple Status#local? from uri being nil
* Replace on-the-fly URI generation with stored URIs
- Generate URI in after_save hook for local statuses
- Use static value in TagManager when available, fallback to tag format
- Make TagManager use ActivityPub::TagManager to understand new format
- Adjust tests
* Use other heuristic for locality of old statuses, do not perform long query
* Exclude tombstone stream entries from Atom feed
* Prevent nil statuses from landing in Pubsubhubbub::DistributionWorker
* Fix URI not being saved (#4818)
* Add more specs for Status
* Save generated uri immediately
and also fix method order to minimize diff.
* Fix alternate HTML URL in Atom
* Fix tests
* Remove not-null constraint from statuses migration to speed it up
* Raise an error for remote url in StatusFinder
Previous implementation had allowed remote url with status id which also exists on local.
Then that bug leads /api/web/embed to return wrong embed url.
* Fix oembed_controller_spec
* Make PreviewCard records reuseable between statuses
**Warning!** Migration truncates preview_cards tablec
* Allow a wider thumbnail for link preview, display it in horizontal layout (#4648)
* Delete preview cards files before truncating
* Rename old table instead of truncating it
* Add mastodon:maintenance:remove_deprecated_preview_cards
* Ignore deprecated_preview_cards in schema definition
* Fix null behaviour
- Use statuses controller for embeds instead of stream entries controller
- Prefer /@:username/:id/embed URL for embeds
- Use /@:username as author_url in OEmbed
- Add follow link to embeds which opens web intent in new window
- Use redis cache in development
- Cache entire embed
Requires moving Atom rendering from DistributionWorker (where
`stream_entry.status` is already nil) to inline (where
`stream_entry.status.destroyed?` is true) and distributing that.
Unfortunately, such XML renderings can no longer be easily chained
together into one payload of n items.

* Don't update profile with inbox-less Person object
*Note: OStatus URIs are invalid for ActivityPub. But we have them for
as long as we want to keep old OStatus-sourced content and as long as
we remain OStatus-compatible.*
- In Announce handling, if object URI is not a URL, fallback to object URL
- Do not use specialized ThreadResolveWorker, rely on generalized handling
- When serializing notes, if parent's URI is not a URL, use parent's URL

In from_redis method, statuses retrieved from the database was mapped to
the IDs retrieved from Redis. It was equivalent to order from high to low
because those IDs are sorted in the same order.
Statuses are ordered with the ID by default, so we do not have to reorder.
Sorting statuses in the database is even faster since the IDs are indexed
with B-tree.
* Fix#3910 - Require OTP authentication to disable 2FA. Also, remove ability
to generate new OTP backup codes *after* initial backup codes were handed
out during activation
* Restore recovery code re-generation
* Improve display of some 2FA elements
* Add overview of active sessions
* Better display of browser/platform name
* Improve how browser information is stored and displayed for sessions overview
* Fix test
* Introduce domains method to Account relation
Account had followers_domains method, which was excessively specific.
Let relation of Account have domains method instead.
* Move follow_mapping in Account to AccountInteractions
* Introduce shared examples for AccountAvatar inclusion
* Cover Account more
* Fix regression from #3842
Simplify the query by omitting all direct statuses. Private statuses
are allowed because they are from accounts we are following (so
by definition)
Resolves#3887 (alternative)
* Adjust test
The classes using Status.as_home_timeline, namely Feed and
PrecomputeFeedService are expected to filter direct statuses as
FanOutWriteService does, but their filtering were incomplete or missing.
This commit solves the problem by filtering direct statuses in
as_home_timeline as the other similar methods such as as_public_timeline
does.
* Whitelist allowed classes for federated statuses
Allowed classes are currently:
- Any microformats class (h/p/u/dt/e-*)
- the classes mention, hashtag, ellipses and invisible.
this last one is somewhat suspect, but Mastodon currently uses it to render hidden link text.
resolved#3790
* Fix code style
* Make Pubsubhubbub::DistributionWorker handle both single stream entry
arguments, as well as arrays of stream entries
* Add BatchedRemoveStatusService, make SuspendAccountService use it
* Improve method names
* Add test
* Add more tests

When case insensitivity is enabled via devise's `config.case_insensitive_keys` then `.find_for_authentication` method needs to be used instead of `.find_by` because second mentioned returns `nil` when valid email with different cases is passed.

* Improve default language decision
This change allows to takes account of accepted language determined by
the user agent even if the custom default locale of the instance is
configured.
* Cover Localized more
* Fix code style
Each of mute, favourite, reblog has been updated to:
- Have a separate controller with just a create and destroy action
- Preserve historical route names to not break the API
- Mild refactoring to break up long methods
* Add specs for api statuses routes
* Update favourited_by and reblogged_by api routes

* Move throttle check to condition on before_action
* Move match_data variable into method
* Move utc timestamp to separate method
* Move header setting into smaller methods
* specs cleanup
* Sort results by the name
* Switch search method to simple `LIKE` matching instead of tsvector/tsquery
Previously we used scores from ts_rank_cd() to sort results, but it didn't work
because the function returns same score for all results. It's not for calculate
similarity of single words. Sometimes this bug even push out exact matching tag
from results.
Additionally, PostgreSQL supports prefix searching with standard btree index.
Using it offers simpler code, but also less index size and some speed.
* Add a StatusFilter class to identify visibility of statuses by accounts
* Extract StatusThreadingConcern from Status
* Clarify purpose of checking for nil account
* Redirect to streaming_api_base_url
When Rails receives a request to streaming API, it most likely
means that there is another host which is configured to respond
to it. This is to redirect clients to that host if
`STREAMING_API_BASE_URL` is set as another host.
* Use the new Ruby 1.9 hash syntax
* Do not fall back to StreamEntry if object_type is unavailable in TagManager
Since 24c77e57b2, when Status, the only model
with stream_entry, and StreamEntry got its own logic in uri_for and
url_for, the purpose of the fallbacks to activity_type of StreamEntry
became unclear.
This commit removes the fallbacks. When adding another model with
stream_entry in future, consider to update uri_for and url_for.
* Cover TagManager more
* Do not default the format in ProviderDiscovery
The format should be determined when discovering, as it is in the current
implementation, and it is a flaw if it is not determined.
* Spec ProviderDiscovery
* Add failing specs for hashtag and username extraction in language detector
* Remove usernames and hashtags from text before language detection
* Handle multiple instances of special case, and reduce whitespace

In single user mode, visitors are redirected to the single user's
profile page. So, if you are the owner without a session, you start
from that page, click the login button and authenticate yourself
expecting you'll soon get started with the home page, but in reality
you'll get redirected back to where you started from -- your own
profile page.
This fixes the behavior by redirecting you home after login if you
have started from your own profile page.
- Increase coverage to exercise all parts of each action

* Relationship API now returns "domain_blocking" status for accounts,
rename "block entire domain" to "hide entire domain", fix unblocking domain,
do not block notifications from domain-blocked-but-followed people, do
not send Salmons to domain blocked users
* Add test
* Personal domain blocks shouldn't affect Salmon after all, since in this
direction of communication the control is very thin when it comes to
public stuff. Best stay consistent and not affect federation in this way
* Ignore followers and follow request from domain blocked folks,
ensure account domain blocks are not created for empty domain,
and avoid duplicates in validation
* Purge followers when blocking domain (without soft-blocks, since they
are useless here)
* Add tests, fix local timeline being empty when having any domain blocks
* Add <ostatus:conversation /> tag to Atom input/output
Only uses ref attribute (not href) because href would be
the alternate link that's always included also.
Creates new conversation for every non-reply status. Carries
over conversation for every reply. Keeps remote URIs verbatim,
generates local URIs on the fly like the rest of them.
* Conversation muting - prevents notifications that reference a conversation
(including replies, favourites, reblogs) from being created. API endpoints
/api/v1/statuses/:id/mute and /api/v1/statuses/:id/unmute
Currently no way to tell when a status/conversation is muted, so the web UI
only has a "disable notifications" button, doesn't work as a toggle
* Display "Dismiss notifications" on all statuses in notifications column, not just own
* Add "muted" as a boolean attribute on statuses JSON

After talking with MMN about it, turns out some servers/php setups do
return 4xx errors while rebooting, so this anti-feature that was meant
to take load off of the hub is doing more harm than good in terms of
breaking subscriptions

Compact Language Detector v3 (CLD3) is the successor of CLD2, which was
used in the previous implementation. CLD3 includes improvements since CLD2,
and supports newer compilers. On the other hand, it has additional
requirements and cld3-ruby, the FFI of CLD3 for Ruby, is still new and may
be still inmature.
Though CLD3 is named after CLD2, it is implemented with a neural network
model, different from the old implementation, which is based on a Naïve
Bayesian classifier.
CLD3 supports newer compilers, such as GCC 6. CLD2 is not compatible with
GCC 6 because it assigns negative values to varibales typed unsigned.
(see internal/cld_generated_cjk_uni_prop_80.cc) The support for GCC 6 and
newer compilers are essential today, when some server operating system
such as Ubuntu Server 16.10 has GCC 6 by default.
On the one hand, CLD3 requires C++11 support. Environments with old
compilers such as Ubuntu Server 14.04 needs to update the system or install
a newer compiler.
CLD3 needs protocol buffers as a new dependency. However,it is not
considered problematic because major server operating systems, CentOS and
Ubuntu Server provide them.
The FFI cld3-ruby was written by me (Akihiko Odaki) for use in Mastodon.
It is still new and may be inmature, but confirmed to pass existing tests.
