* Allow running mastodon on a different domain as the one used for identifying users
* Alter documentation of WEB_DOMAIN to make clear it shouldn't be used unless the admin knows what they are doing
* Compare to web_domain instead of local_domain when dealing with feeds/API
* Correctly identify mentions to local accounts
Mentions URLs point to the person's web profile, i.e., the user page served on WEB_DOMAIN.
The goal of this change is to enhance Mastodon's handling of remote domains
for which the APIs reside on a different host (see issue #1032).
Indeed, when a remote user unknown to Mastodon is mentionned, only its profile
URL (e.g. https://social.example.org/users/User) is known, and Mastodon has to
build a @username@domain handle for it. To do so, Mastodon fetches the user's
atom feed (e.g., https://social.example.org/users/User.atom) and uses its
content to get the username part of the handle, and the URL's host part to
build the domain (e.g., @User@social.example.org). This handle is then used
for a Webfinger request.
In the case where example.org serves the Webfinger info for @User@example.org
and all feeds and APIs are hosted at social.example.org, Mastodon will still
build @User@social.example.org and fail at resolving the account's details
through Webfinger.
This patch changes this behaviour by using the author's email address from
the atom feed to build the handle. In Mastodon-generated atom feeds, the
email address is always the handle it expects for federation.
* Fix#1141, fix#1126 - Work through UpdateRemoteProfileService for both <feed> and <entry> top-level tags
* Improve code quality, remove line unrelated to fix
* Rewrite Atom generation from stream entries to use Ox instead of Nokogiri::Builder
StreamEntry is now limited to only statuses, which allows some optimization. Removed
extra queries on AccountsController#show. AtomSerializer instead of AtomBuilderHelper
used in AccountsController#show, StreamEntriesController#show, StreamEntryRenderer
and PubSubHubbub::DistributionWorker
PubSubHubbub::DistributionWorker moves n+1 DomainBlock query to PubSubHubbub::DeliveryWorker
instead.
All Salmon slaps that aren't based on StreamEntry still use AtomBuilderHelper and Nokogiri
* All Salmon slaps now use Ox instead of Nokogiri. No touch from status on account
