Flash is dead. It's no longer supported by browsers, it's not
well-supported by emulators, and only two Flash posts were uploaded in
the last year anyway. Old Flash files will continue to exist, but new
Flash uploads will no longer be allowed.
Make it so that when a user removes their own vote, the vote is soft
deleted (the is_deleted flag is set) instead of hard deleted.
Changes:
* Add is_deleted flag to comment votes.
* Relax uniqueness constraint so you can have multiple deleted votes on
the same comment. You can still only have one active vote on the comment.
* Add `soft_delete` method to Deletable concern.
Changes:
* Change the `expires_at` field to `duration`.
* Make moderators choose from a fixed set of standard ban lengths,
instead of allowing arbitrary ban lengths.
* List `duration` in seconds in the /bans.json API.
* Dump bans to BigQuery.
Note that some old bans have a negative duration. This is because their
expiration date was before their creation date, which is because in 2013
bans were migrated to Danbooru 2 and the original ban creation dates
were lost.
Remove the `category_name` field from the `/wiki_page.json` API. This
field was originally added only because it was needed by our autocomplete
Javascript. It was also misnamed, it wasn't the tag's category name, it
was the category's ID.
Users should use `https://danbooru.donmai.us/wiki_pages.json?only=title,tag`
instead if they need this.
This triggered a N+1 query pattern when dumping wiki pages to BigQuery,
which made dumping wiki pages very slow. It also meant this field was
included in the database dump, even though it wasn't a real database
column.
Prevent saved searches, news updates, and ip bans from being publicly
dumped to BigQuery. They didn't override the `visible` method to
restrict their visibility for anonymous users.
* Max comment length: 15,000 characters.
* Max forum post length: 200,000 characters.
* Max forum topic title length: 200 characters.
* Max dmail length: 50,000 characters.
* Max dmail title length: 200 characters.
* Don't set the inviter field for newly promoted users, or for Gold/Plat
upgrades.
* Clear the inviter field for paid Gold/Plat upgrades, and for users who
have a feedback or a modaction listing who invited them. This leaves
about 600 remaining users with an inviter field with no other record
of who invited them.
See #4750.
* When trying to create an artist entry for a non-artist tag, set the
error on the name attribute so that the artist name gets marked
as incorrect in the artist edit form.
* Fix a bad `Name '' cannot be blank` error message when the artist name
is blank.
* Fix showing wiki pages of non-artist tags in the artist edit form when
the artist name conflicts with a non-artist tag (e.g. if you try to
create an artist named '1girl', don't show the wiki for 1girl in the
artist edit form).
Change error from "Body has no content" to "Body can't be blank" when a
user tries to submit an empty comment. This makes it consistent with
error messages in other models when someone tries to submit blank content.
Allow users to view their own rate limits with /rate_limits.json.
Note that rate limits are only updated after every API call, so this
page only shows the state of the limits after the last call, not the
current state.
If the user makes a request while rate limited, penalize them 1 second
for that request, up to a maximum of 30 seconds. This means that if a
user doesn't stop making requests after being rate limited, then they
will stay rate limited forever until they stop.
This is to temp ban bots, especially spam bots, that flood requests
while ignoring HTTP errors or rate limits.
(Note that this is on a per-endpoint basis. Being rate limited on one
endpoint won't penalize you for making calls to other endpoints.)
* Tie rate limits to both the user's ID and their IP address.
* Make each endpoint have separate rate limits. This means that, for
example, your post edit rate limit is separate from your post vote
rate limit. Before all write actions had a shared rate limit.
* Make all write endpoints have rate limits. Before some endpoints, such
as voting, favoriting, commenting, or forum posting, weren't subject
to rate limits.
* Add stricter rate limits for some endpoints:
** 1 per 5 minutes for creating new accounts.
** 1 per minute for login attempts, changing your email address, or
for creating mod reports.
** 1 per minute for sending dmails, creating comments, creating forum
posts, or creating forum topics.
** 1 per second for voting, favoriting, or disapproving posts.
** These rate limits all have burst factors high enough that they
shouldn't affect normal, non-automated users.
* Raise the default write rate limit for Gold users from 2 per second to
4 per second, for all other actions not listed above.
* Raise the default burst factor to 200 for all other actions not listed
above. Before it was 10 for Members, 30 for Gold, and 60 for Platinum.
Rework the rate limit implementation to make it more flexible:
* Allow setting different rate limits for different actions. Before we
had a single rate limit for all write actions. Now different
controller endpoints can have different limits.
* Allow actions to be rate limited by user ID, by IP address, or both.
Before actions were only limited by user ID, which meant non-logged-in
actions like creating new accounts or attempting to login couldn't be rate
limited. Also, because actions were limited by user ID only, you could
use multiple accounts with the same IP to get around limits.
Other changes:
* Remove the API Limit field from user profile pages.
* Remove the `remaining_api_limit` field from the `/profile.json` endpoint.
* Rename the `X-Api-Limit` header to `X-Rate-Limit` and change it from a
number to a JSON object containing all the rate limit info
(including the refill rate, the burst factor, the cost of the call,
and the current limits).
* Fix a potential race condition where, if you flooded requests fast
enough, you could exceed the rate limit. This was because we checked
and updated the rate limit in two separate steps, which was racy;
simultaneous requests could pass the check before the update happened.
The new code uses some tricky SQL to check and update multiple limits
in a single statement.
Add site icons linking to all the artist's sites in the fetch source
data box.
Some artist entries have a large number of URLs. Various heuristics are
applied to try to present the most useful URLs first. Dead URLs and
redundant URLs (Pixiv stacc and Twitter intent URLs) are filtered out.
Remaining URLs are sorted first by site (to put sites like Pixiv and
Twitter first), then by URL (to break ties when an artist has multiple
accounts on the same site).
Some sites have shitty hard-to-read icons. It can't be helped. The icons
are the official favicons of each site.
Remove the api_token field from the response to the login action (POST
/sessions). This doesn't make sense in the presence of multiple API
keys, and is also not generally useful; if you need an API key, create
one yourself and write it down.
Add the ability to restrict API keys so that they can only be used with
certain IP addresses or certain API endpoints.
Restricting your key is useful to limit damage in case it gets leaked or
stolen. For example, if your key is on a remote server and it gets
hacked, or if you accidentally check-in your key to Github.
Restricting your key's API permissions is useful if a third-party app or
script wants your key, but you don't want to give full access to your
account.
If you're an app or userscript developer, and your app needs an API key
from the user, you should only request a key with the minimum
permissions needed by your app.
If you have a privileged account, and you have scripts running under
your account, you are highly encouraged to restrict your key to limit
damage in case your key gets leaked or stolen.
* Add an explanation of what an API key is and how to use it.
* Make it possible for the site owner to view all API keys.
* Remove the requirement to re-enter your password before you can view
your API key (to be reworked).
* Move the API key controller from maintenance/user/api_keys_controller.rb
to a top level controller.
Like 9efb374ae, allow users to toggle between upvoting and downvoting a
post without raising an error or having to manually remove the vote
first. If you upvote a post, then downvote it, the upvote is
automatically removed and replaced by the downvote.
Other changes:
* Tagging a post with `upvote:self` or `downvote:self` is now silently
ignored when the user doesn't have permission to vote, instead of
raising an error.
* Undoing a vote that doesn't exist now does nothing instead of
returning an error. This can happen if you open the same post in two
tabs, undo the vote in tab 1, then try to undo the vote again in tab 2.
Changes to the /post_votes API:
* `POST /post_votes` and `DELETE /post_votes` now return a post vote
instead of a post.
* The `score` param in `POST /post_votes` is now 1 or -1, not `up` or
`down`.
Change post votes to work the same way as comment votes:
* Make the upvote arrow blue if you've upvoted the post, or grey if you
haven't. Likewise for the downvote arrow.
* Make it so you can click the upvote or downvote arrows to undo the vote.
* Don't show any notices when you vote on a post.
Also fix it so that votes work the same way on the posts page, the
comments page, and in the modqueue. Before it wasn't possible to undo
votes on the comments page or in the modqueue.
