Ported that change to the new design.
Conflicts:
- app/models/status.rb
- app/services/remove_status_service.rb
- db/schema.rb
All conflicts were due to the addition of a `deleted_at` attribute
to Statuses and reworked database indexes.
* Add soft delete for statuses to allow them to appear instant
* Allow reporting soft-deleted statuses and show them in the admin UI
* Change index for getting an account's statuses
The reason for unattaching media instead of removing it is to support
delete & redraft functionality, but remote or staff-removed statuses
will never be redrafted, so the media should be deleted immediately
Fix#271
Add back the `GET /api/v1/trends` API with the caveat that it does
not return tags that have not been allowed to trend by the staff.
When a hashtag begins to trend (internally) and that hashtag has
not been previously reviewed by the staff, the staff is notified.
The new admin UI for hashtags allows filtering hashtags by where
they are used (e.g. in the profile directory), whether they have
been reviewed or are pending reviewal, they show by how many people
the hashtag is used in the directory, how many people used it
today, how many statuses with it have been created today, and it
allows fixing the name of the hashtag to make it more readable.
The disallowed hashtags feature has been reworked. It is now
controlled from the admin UI for hashtags instead of from
the file `config/settings.yml`

* Add REST API for creating an account
The method is available to apps with a token obtained via the client
credentials grant. It creates a user and account records, as well as
an access token for the app that initiated the request. The user is
unconfirmed, and an e-mail is sent as usual.
The method returns the access token, which the app should save for
later. The REST API is not available to users with unconfirmed
accounts, so the app must be smart to wait for the user to click a
link in their e-mail inbox.
The method is rate-limited by IP to 5 requests per 30 minutes.
* Redirect users back to app from confirmation if they were created with an app
* Add tests
* Return 403 on the method if registrations are not open
* Require agreement param to be true in the API when creating an account

This means the two filter systems (glitch-soc's keyword mutes and tootsuite's
custom filters) are in place, which will be changed in a follow-up commit.
DELETE /api/v1/suggestions/:account_id
When blocking, remove suggestion from both sides. Muting not affected,
since muting is supposed to be invisible to the target.
* Add more granular OAuth scopes
* Add human-readable descriptions of the new scopes
* Ensure new scopes look good on the app UI
* Add tests
* Group scopes in screen and color-code dangerous ones
* Fix wrong extra scope
* Re-add follow recommendations API
GET /api/v1/suggestions
Removed in 30f9e9e624 due to Neo4J
dependency. The algorithm uses triadic closures, takes into account
suspensions, blocks, mutes, domain blocks, excludes locked and moved
accounts, and prefers more recently updated accounts.
* Track interactions with people you don't follow
Replying to, favouriting and reblogging someone you're not following
will make them show up in follow recommendations. The interactions
have different weights:
- Replying is 1
- Favouriting is 10 (decidedly positive interaction, but private)
- Reblogging is 20
Following them, muting or blocking will remove them from the list,
obviously.
* Remove triadic closures, ensure potential friendships are trimmed
* Add keyword filtering
GET|POST /api/v1/filters
GET|PUT|DELETE /api/v1/filters/:id
- Irreversible filters can drop toots from home or notifications
- Other filters can hide toots through the client app

* Add preference to hide following/followers lists
- Public pages
- ActivityPub collections (does not return pages but does give total)
- REST API (unless it's your own) (does not federate)
Fix#6901
* Add preference
* Add delegation
* Fix issue
* Fix issue
permitted_for scope is slow when combined with pinned status scope.
Fortunately permitted_for scope can safely be removed because a pinned
status is always public.
- POST /api/v1/push/subscription
- PUT /api/v1/push/subscription
- DELETE /api/v1/push/subscription
- New OAuth scope: "push" (required for the above methods)
* Added a timeline for Direct statuses
* Lists all Direct statuses you've sent and received
* Displayed in Getting Started
* Streaming server support for direct TL
* Changes to match other timelines in 2.0
This also limits the statuses returned by API, but pagination is not
implemented in Web API yet. I still expect it brings user experience
better than making a user wait to fetch all ancestor statuses and flooding
the column with them.

* Fix some issues
- Display loading/missing state for list timelines
- Order lists alphabetically in overview
- Fix async list editor reset
- Redirect to /lists after deleting unpinned list
- Redirect to / after pinning a list
* Remove dead list columns when a list is deleted or fetch returns 404
* Allow hiding of reblogs from followed users
This adds a new entry to the account menu to allow users to hide
future reblogs from a user (and then if they've done that, to show
future reblogs instead).
This does not remove or add historical reblogs from/to the user's
timeline; it only affects new statuses.
The API for this operates by sending a "reblogs" key to the follow
endpoint. If this is sent when starting a new follow, it will be
respected from the beginning of the follow relationship (even if
the follow request must be approved by the followee). If this is
sent when a follow relationship already exists, it will simply
update the existing follow relationship. As with the notification
muting, this will now return an object ({reblogs: [true|false]}) or
false for each follow relationship when requesting relationship
information for an account. This should cause few issues due to an
object being truthy in many languages, but some modifications may
need to be made in pickier languages.
Database changes: adds a show_reblogs column (default true,
non-nullable) to the follows and follow_requests tables. Because
these are non-nullable, we use the existing MigrationHelpers to
perform this change without locking those tables, although the
tables are likely to be small anyway.
Tests included.

* Rubocop fixes
* Code review changes
* Test fixes
This patchset closes#648 and resolves#3271.
* Rubocop fix
* Revert reblogs defaulting in argument, fix tests
It turns out we needed this for the same reason we needed it in muting:
if nil gets passed in somehow (most usually by an API client not passing
any value), we need to detect and handle it.
We could specify a default in the parameter and then also catch nil, but
there's no great reason to duplicate the default value.
* Add structure for lists
* Add list timeline streaming API
* Add list APIs, bind list-account relation to follow relation
* Add API for adding/removing accounts from lists

* Apply white-space: nowrap to account relationships icons
* Fix code style issues
* Remove superfluous blank line
* Rename /api/v1/mutes/details -> /api/v2/mutes
* Don't serialize "account" in MuteSerializer
Doing so is somewhat unnecessary since it's always the current user's account.
* Fix wrong variable name in api/v2/mutes
* Use Toggle in place of checkbox in the mute modal.
* Make the Toggle in the mute modal look better
* Code style changes in specs and removed an extra space
* Code review suggestions from akihikodaki
Also fixed a syntax error in tests for AccountInteractions.
* Make AddHideNotificationsToMute Concurrent
It's not clear how much this will benefit instances in practice, as the
number of mutes tends to be pretty small, but this should prevent any
blocking migrations nonetheless.
* Fix up migration things
* Remove /api/v2/mutes
* Add moderator role and add pundit policies for admin actions
* Add rake task for turning user into mod and revoking it again
* Fix handling of unauthorized exception
* Deliver new report e-mails to staff, not just admins
* Add promote/demote to admin UI, hide some actions conditionally
* Fix unused i18n
* Use non-serial IDs
This change makes a number of nontrivial tweaks to the data model in
Mastodon:
* All IDs are now 8 byte integers (rather than mixed 4- and 8-byte)
* IDs are now assigned as:
* Top 6 bytes: millisecond-resolution time from epoch
* Bottom 2 bytes: serial (within the millisecond) sequence number
* See /lib/tasks/db.rake's `define_timestamp_id` for details, but
note that the purpose of these changes is to make it difficult to
determine the number of objects in a table from the ID of any
object.
* The Redis sorted set used for the feed will have values used to look
up toots, rather than scores. This is almost always the same as the
existing behavior, except in the case of boosted toots. This change
was made because Redis stores scores as double-precision floats,
which cannot store the new ID format exactly. Note that this doesn't
cause problems with sorting/pagination, because ZREVRANGEBYSCORE
sorts lexicographically when scores are tied. (This will still cause
sorting issues when the ID gains a new significant digit, but that's
extraordinarily uncommon.)
Note a couple of tradeoffs have been made in this commit:
* lib/tasks/db.rake is used to enforce many/most column constraints,
because this commit seems likely to take a while to bring upstream.
Enforcing a post-migrate hook is an easier way to maintain the code
in the interim.
* Boosted toots will appear in the timeline as many times as they have
been boosted. This is a tradeoff due to the way the feed is saved in
Redis at the moment, but will be handled by a future commit.
This would effectively close Mastodon's #1059, as it is a
snowflake-like system of generating IDs. However, given how involved
the changes were simply within Mastodon, it may have unexpected
interactions with some clients, if they store IDs as doubles
(or as 4-byte integers). This was a problem that Twitter ran into with
their "snowflake" transition, particularly in JavaScript clients that
treated IDs as JS integers, rather than strings. It therefore would be
useful to test these changes at least in the web interface and popular
clients before pushing them to all users.
* Fix JavaScript interface with long IDs
Somewhat predictably, the JS interface handled IDs as numbers, which in
JS are IEEE double-precision floats. This loses some precision when
working with numbers as large as those generated by the new ID scheme,
so we instead handle them here as strings. This is relatively simple,
and doesn't appear to have caused any problems, but should definitely
be tested more thoroughly than the built-in tests. Several days of use
appear to support this working properly.
BREAKING CHANGE:
The major(!) change here is that IDs are now returned as strings by the
REST endpoints, rather than as integers. In practice, relatively few
changes were required to make the existing JS UI work with this change,
but it will likely hit API clients pretty hard: it's an entirely
different type to consume. (The one API client I tested, Tusky, handles
this with no problems, however.)
Twitter ran into this issue when introducing Snowflake IDs, and decided
to instead introduce an `id_str` field in JSON responses. I have opted
to *not* do that, and instead force all IDs to 64-bit integers
represented by strings in one go. (I believe Twitter exacerbated their
problem by rolling out the changes three times: once for statuses, once
for DMs, and once for user IDs, as well as by leaving an integer ID
value in JSON. As they said, "If you’re using the `id` field with JSON
in a Javascript-related language, there is a very high likelihood that
the integers will be silently munged by Javascript interpreters. In most
cases, this will result in behavior such as being unable to load or
delete a specific direct message, because the ID you're sending to the
API is different than the actual identifier associated with the
message." [1]) However, given that this is a significant change for API
users, alternatives or a transition time may be appropriate.

* Restructure feed pushes/unpushes
This was necessary because the previous behavior used Redis zset scores
to identify statuses, but those are IEEE double-precision floats, so we
can't actually use them to identify all 64-bit IDs. However, it leaves
the code in a much better state for refactoring reblog handling /
coalescing.
Feed-management code has been consolidated in FeedManager, including:
* BatchedRemoveStatusService no longer directly manipulates feed zsets
* RemoveStatusService no longer directly manipulates feed zsets
* PrecomputeFeedService has moved its logic to FeedManager#populate_feed
(PrecomputeFeedService largely made lots of calls to FeedManager, but
didn't follow the normal adding-to-feed process.)
This has the effect of unifying all of the feed push/unpush logic in
FeedManager, making it much more tractable to update it in the future.
Due to some additional checks that must be made during, for example,
batch status removals, some Redis pipelining has been removed. It does
not appear that this should cause significantly increased load, but if
necessary, some optimizations are possible in batch cases. These were
omitted in the pursuit of simplicity, but a batch_push and batch_unpush
would be possible in the future.
Tests were added to verify that pushes happen under expected conditions,
and to verify reblog behavior (both on pushing and unpushing). In the
case of unpushing, this includes testing behavior that currently leads
to confusion such as Mastodon's #2817, but this codifies that the
behavior is currently expected.
* Rubocop fixes
I could swear I made these changes already, but I must have lost them
somewhere along the line.
* Address review comments
This addresses the first two comments from review of this feature:
https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/pull/4801#discussion_r139336735https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/pull/4801#discussion_r139336931
This adds an optional argument to FeedManager#key, the subtype of feed
key to generate. It also tests to ensure that FeedManager's settings are
such that reblogs won't be tracked forever.
* Hardcode IdToBigints migration columns
This addresses a comment during review:
https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/pull/4801#discussion_r139337452
This means we'll need to make sure that all _id columns going forward
are bigints, but that should happen automatically in most cases.
* Additional fixes for stringified IDs in JSON
These should be the last two. These were identified using eslint to try
to identify any plain casts to JavaScript numbers. (Some such casts are
legitimate, but these were not.)
Adding the following to .eslintrc.yml will identify casts to numbers:
~~~
no-restricted-syntax:
- warn
- selector: UnaryExpression[operator='+'] > :not(Literal)
message: Avoid the use of unary +
- selector: CallExpression[callee.name='Number']
message: Casting with Number() may coerce string IDs to numbers
~~~
The remaining three casts appear legitimate: two casts to array indices,
one in a server to turn an environment variable into a number.
* Only implement timestamp IDs for Status IDs
Per discussion in #4801, this is only being merged in for Status IDs at
this point. We do this in a migration, as there is no longer use for
a post-migration hook. We keep the initialization of the timestamp_id
function as a Rake task, as it is also needed after db:schema:load (as
db/schema.rb doesn't store Postgres functions).
* Change internal streaming payloads to stringified IDs as well
This is equivalent to 591a9af356faf2d5c7e66e3ec715502796c875cd from
#5019, with an extra change for the addition to FeedManager#unpush.
* Ensure we have a status_id_seq sequence
Apparently this is not a given when specifying a custom ID function,
so now we ensure it gets created. This uses the generic version of this
function to more easily support adding additional tables with timestamp
IDs in the future, although it would be possible to cut this down to a
less generic version if necessary. It is only run during db:schema:load
or the relevant migration, so the overhead is extraordinarily minimal.
* Transition reblogs to new Redis format
This provides a one-way migration to transition old Redis reblog entries
into the new format, with a separate tracking entry for reblogs.
It is not invertible because doing so could (if timestamp IDs are used)
require a database query for each status in each users' feed, which is
likely to be a significant toll on major instances.
* Address review comments from @akihikodaki
No functional changes.
* Additional review changes
* Heredoc cleanup
* Run db:schema:load hooks for test in development
This matches the behavior in Rails'
ActiveRecord::Tasks::DatabaseTasks.each_current_configuration, which
would otherwise break `rake db:setup` in development.
It also moves some functionality out to a library, which will be a good
place to put additional related functionality in the near future.
