e.g. if someone on an instance that previously had followers gets mentioned
in a private toot, before this PR, they would not receive a
Collection-Synchronization header and may show the toot to the former followers
in addition to the mentioned person.
* Add support for followers synchronization on the receiving end
Check the `collectionSynchronization` attribute on `Create` and `Announce`
activities and synchronize followers from provided collection if possible.
* Add tests for followers synchronization on the receiving end
* Add support for follower synchronization on the sender's end
* Add tests for the sending end
* Switch from AS attributes to HTTP header
Replace the custom `collectionSynchronization` ActivityStreams attribute by
an HTTP header (`X-AS-Collection-Synchronization`) with the same syntax as
the `Signature` header and the following fields:
- `collectionId` to specify which collection to synchronize
- `digest` for the SHA256 hex-digest of the list of followers known on the
receiving instance (where “receiving instance” is determined by accounts
sharing the same host name for their ActivityPub actor `id`)
- `url` of a collection that should be fetched by the instance actor
Internally, move away from the webfinger-based `domain` attribute and use
account `uri` prefix to group accounts.
* Add environment variable to disable followers synchronization
Since the whole mechanism relies on some new preconditions that, in some
extremely rare cases, might not be met, add an environment variable
(DISABLE_FOLLOWERS_SYNCHRONIZATION) to disable the mechanism altogether and
avoid followers being incorrectly removed.
The current conditions are:
1. all managed accounts' actor `id` and inbox URL have the same URI scheme and
netloc.
2. all accounts whose actor `id` or inbox URL share the same URI scheme and
netloc as a managed account must be managed by the same Mastodon instance
as well.
As far as Mastodon is concerned, breaking those preconditions require extensive
configuration changes in the reverse proxy and might also cause other issues.
Therefore, this environment variable provides a way out for people with highly
unusual configurations, and can be safely ignored for the overwhelming majority
of Mastodon administrators.
* Only set follower synchronization header on non-public statuses
This is to avoid unnecessary computations and allow Follow-related
activities to be handled by the usual codepath instead of going through
the synchronization mechanism (otherwise, any Follow/Undo/Accept activity
would trigger the synchronization mechanism even if processing the activity
itself would be enough to re-introduce synchronization)
* Change how ActivityPub::SynchronizeFollowersService handles follow requests
If the remote lists a local follower which we only know has sent a follow
request, consider the follow request as accepted instead of sending an Undo.
* Integrate review feeback
- rename X-AS-Collection-Synchronization to Collection-Synchronization
- various minor refactoring and code style changes
* Only select required fields when computing followers_hash
* Use actor URI rather than webfinger domain in synchronization endpoint
* Change hash computation to be a XOR of individual hashes
Makes it much easier to be memory-efficient, and avoid sorting discrepancy issues.
* Marginally improve followers_hash computation speed
* Further improve hash computation performances by using pluck_each
There are edge cases where requests to certain hosts timeout when
using the vanilla HTTP.rb gem, which the goldfinger gem uses. Now
that we no longer need to support OStatus servers, webfinger logic
is so simple that there is no point encapsulating it in a gem, so
we can just use our own Request class. With that, we benefit from
more robust timeout code and IPv4/IPv6 resolution.
Fix#14091
* Add bell button
Fix#4890
* Remove duplicate type from post-deployment migration
* Fix legacy class type mappings
* Improve query performance with better index
* Fix validation
* Remove redundant index from notifications
DISTINCT clause removes duplicated records according to all the selected
attributes. In reality, it can remove duplicated records only looking at
statuses.id, but the clause confuses the query planner and yields
insufficient performance.
The behavior is also problematic if the scope produced by HashQueryService
is used to query columns without id (using pluck method, for example). The
scope is expected to contain unique statuses, but the uniquness will be
evaluated with some arbitrary columns other than id.
GROUP BY clause resolves those problem by explicitly specifying the
column to take into account for the record distinction.
A workaround for the problem of DISTINCT clause in
Api::V1::Timelines::TagController is no longer necessary and removed.
- Change audio files to not be stripped of metadata
- Automatically extract cover art from audio if it exists
- Add `thumbnail` parameter to `POST /api/v1/media`, `POST /api/v2/media` and `PUT /api/v1/media/:id`
- Add `icon` to represent it in attachments in ActivityPub
- Fix `preview_url` containing URL of missing missing image when there is no thumbnail instead of null
- Fix duration of audio not being displayed on public pages until the file is loaded
* Split media cleanup from reject-media domain blocks to its own service
* Slightly improve ClearDomainMediaService error handling
* Lower DomainClearMediaWorker to lowest-priority queue
* Do not catch ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound in domain block workers
* Fix DomainBlockWorker spec labels
* Add some specs
* Change domain blocks to immediately mark accounts as suspended
Rather than doing so sequentially, account after account, while cleaning
their data. This doesn't change much about the time the block takes to
complete, but it immediately prevents interaction with the blocked domain,
while up to now, it would only be guaranteed when the process ends.
Mastodon enforces the “sensitive” flag on media attachments whenever a toot
is posted with a Content Warning. However, it does so *after* potentially
converting the Content Warning to toot text (when there is no toot text),
which leads to inconsistent and surprising behavior for API clients.
This commit fixes this inconsistency.
Only look up private toots from database if the request failed because of 401,
403 or 404 errors, as those may indicate a private toot, rather than something
that isn't a toot or cannot be processed.
* Change ActivityPub follower/following collections to not link first page
* Add support for hiding followers and following of remote users
* Switch to using a single `hide_collections` column
* Address code style remarks
Fixes#13136
When a user's canonical acct domain is different from its id's domain
(WEB_DOMAIN ≠ LOCAL_DOMAIN), two webfinger queries are required to find the
canonical domain from the URI. However, we skip webfinger queries when
updating only the key of a remote user, which led to the creation of a
duplicate account, using the URI's domain instead of the canonical acct: one.
* Fix invalid votes from the API being accepted
Fixes#12556
- Ensure `choice` is an integer instead of silently converting to 0
- Ensure `choice` corresponds to an actual choice of the poll
* Please CodeClimate
