Add minitest-reporters gem. Replace the default output of `bin/rails
test` with a progress bar. The default output just emits periods for
passed tests, which makes it hard to tell how long tests will take and
causes test runner output on Github to appear to hang. The web console
on Github is line buffered, but the default test runner doesn't normally
emit newlines (unless a test fails), so the output can hang for a long
time.
* Remove `banned_ip_for_download?` config option. This isn't something that usually needs
to be configured.
* Replace the `ipaddress` gem with `ipaddress_2`. The `ipaddress` gem has several methods
we need (`link_local?`, etc) that are only available in master because the gem hasn't had
an official release in several years. `ipaddress_2` is a fork that is more actively
maintained.
* Use libvips instead of ruby-imagespec for reading dimensions of jpeg, png, and gif files.
* Copy the code for reading the dimensions of flash files from ruby-imagespec.
Fixes an incompatibility between ruby-imagespec and the rubocop gem that
prevented us from including rubocop in the Gemfile.
Reject email addresses that known to be undeliverable during signup.
Some users signup with invalid email addresses, which causes the welcome
email (which contains the email confirmation link) to bounce. Too many
bounces hurt our ability to send mail.
We check that an email address is undeliverable by checking if the
domain has a mail server and if the server returns an invalid address
error when attempting to send mail. This isn't foolproof since some
servers don't return an error if the address doesn't exist. If the
checks fail we know the address is bad, but if the checks pass that
doesn't guarantee the address is good. However, this is still good
enough to filter out bad addresses for popular providers like Gmail and
Microsoft that do return nonexistent address errors.
The address existence check requires being able to connect to mail
servers over port 25. This may fail if your network blocks port 25,
which many home ISPs and hosting providers do by default.
Refactor to use a recursive CTE to calculate implied tags in SQL, rather
than storing them in a descendant_names field. This avoids the
complexity of keeping the stored field up to date. It's also more
flexible, since it allows us to find both descendant tags (tags that
imply a given tag) as well as ancestor tags (tags that are implied by a
given tag).
The twitter gem had several problems:
* It's been unmaintained for over a year.
* It pulled in a lot of dependencies, many of which were outdated. In
particular, it locked the `http` gem to version 3.3, preventing us
from upgrading to 4.2.
* It raised exceptions on normal error conditions, like for deleted
tweets or suspended users, which we really don't want.
* We had to wrap it to provide caching.
Changes:
* Fixes#4226 (Exception when creating new artists entries for suspended
Twitter accounts)
* Drop support for scraping images from summary cards. Summary cards
are the previews you get when you link to a website in a tweet. These
preview images aren't always the best image.
