Try to automatically fix various kind of typos and common mistakes in
email addresses when a user creates a new account. It's common for users
to signup with addresses like `name@gmai.com`, which leads to bounces
when we try to send the welcome email.
Don't allow users to request aliases, implications, or renames for invalid tag names.
As a side effect, it's no longer possible to request shortcut aliases like
`/hr -> hakurei_reimu` (slash abbreviations still exist, but they can't
be overridden with aliases). Tests involving these types of aliases are
removed.
Rework the upload process so that files are saved to Danbooru first
before the user starts tagging the upload.
The main user-visible change is that you have to select the file first
before you can start tagging it. Saving the file first lets us fix a
number of problems:
* We can check for dupes before the user tags the upload.
* We can perform dupe checks and show preview images for users not using the bookmarklet.
* We can show preview images without having to proxy images through Danbooru.
* We can show previews of videos and ugoira files.
* We can reliably show the filesize and resolution of the image.
* We can let the user save files to upload later.
* We can get rid of a lot of spaghetti code related to preprocessing
uploads. This was the cause of most weird "md5 confirmation doesn't
match md5" errors.
(Not all of these are implemented yet.)
Internally, uploading is now a two-step process: first we create an upload
object, then we create a post from the upload. This is how it works:
* The user goes to /uploads/new and chooses a file or pastes an URL into
the file upload component.
* The file upload component calls `POST /uploads` to create an upload.
* `POST /uploads` immediately returns a new upload object in the `pending` state.
* Danbooru starts processing the upload in a background job (downloading,
resizing, and transferring the image to the image servers).
* The file upload component polls `/uploads/$id.json`, checking the
upload `status` until it returns `completed` or `error`.
* When the upload status is `completed`, the user is redirected to /uploads/$id.
* On the /uploads/$id page, the user can tag the upload and submit it.
* The upload form calls `POST /posts` to create a new post from the upload.
* The user is redirected to the new post.
This is the data model:
* An upload represents a set of files uploaded to Danbooru by a user.
Uploaded files don't have to belong to a post. An upload has an
uploader, a status (pending, processing, completed, or error), a
source (unless uploading from a file), and a list of media assets
(image or video files).
* There is a has-and-belongs-to-many relationship between uploads and
media assets. An upload can have many media assets, and a media asset
can belong to multiple uploads. Uploads are joined to media assets
through a upload_media_assets table.
An upload could potentially have multiple media assets if it's a Pixiv
or Twitter gallery. This is not yet implemented (at the moment all
uploads have one media asset).
A media asset can belong to multiple uploads if multiple people try
to upload the same file, or if the same user tries to upload the same
file more than once.
New features:
* On the upload page, you can press Ctrl+V to paste an URL and immediately upload it.
* You can save files for upload later. Your saved files are at /uploads.
Fixes:
* Improved error messages when uploading invalid files, bad URLs, and
when forgetting the rating.
Stop updating the fav_string attribute on posts. The column still exists
on the table, but is no longer used or updated.
Like the pool_string in 7d503f08, the fav_string was used in the past to
facilitate `fav:X` searches. Posts had a hidden fav_string column that
contained a list of every user who favorited the post. These were
treated like fake hidden tags on the post so that a search for `fav:X`
was treated like a tag search.
The fav_string attribute has been unused for search purposes for a while
now. It was only kept because of technicalities that required
departitioning the favorites table first (340e1008e) before it could be
removed. Basically, removing favorites with `@favorite.destroy` was
slow because Rails always deletes object by ID, but we didn't have an
index on favorites.id, and we couldn't easily add one until the
favorites table was departitioned.
Fixes#4652. See https://github.com/danbooru/danbooru/issues/4652#issuecomment-754993802
for more discussion of issues caused by the fav_string (in short: write
amplification, post table bloat, and favorite inconsistency problems).
* Add ability to report dmails.
* Enable reports for comments, forum posts, and dmails.
* Allow Members to send reports.
* Don't allow users to report the same thing twice.
Regens simple form config using `rails generate simple_form:install`.
Seems to fix#2913 (erroneous minlength validations being enforced as of
simple_form 3.4.0).
