Avoid the use of deprecated MariaDB "zero dates" globally. If they're present
as attribute defaults somewhere, they will be replaced with NULL implicitly.
The existing "zero dates" in MariaDB storage will be left intact and this
should not present any issues.
The "timestamp" type in table definitions now corresponds to DATETIME in
MariaDB with "DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP", which
should be close enough to the original behaviour for compatibility purposes.
It is now the recommended type for "modified" attributes, because of the
update trigger on MariaDB. But there is no such trigger implemented on
PostgreSQL as of this moment.
Make common_sql_weight employ standard SQL functions for the timestamp
difference in seconds.
Also replace UTC_TIMESTAMP in the MariaDB-specific part with CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
as it is the only occurence and GNU social sets UTC as a default timezone.
In a delete_orphan_files.php script simplify the main query considerably.
In clean_profiles.php stop using COUNT as if it is ANY, that is unnecessary
punishment for the database. Instead implement the anti-join with a
left outer join.
In Autocomplete and Activitypub_profile use joins instead of a WHERE OR
anti-pattern for the semi-joins.
In lib/ui/galleryaction.php replace a CROSS JOIN with an INNER JOIN.
In actions/sup.php remove a redundant subquery: WHERE is applied before
grouping either way.
Use $object->sqlValue('NULL') (identical to DataObject_Cast'ing) instead and
fix related issues like (email|sms)settings considering these NULLs as a
false positive for the E-Mail address still being set when it's been removed.
There could also be security implications to the now-disabled approach of
considering 'NULL' strings as SQL NULLs.
OStatusPlugin:
- Stop adding the remote-follow button
- Subscribe to required RemoteFollow plugin events
- Drop main/ostatussub route and update urls to the main/RemoteFollowSub route
- Bump plugin minor version number
actions/ostatusgroup,
actions/ostatuspeopletag:
- Update urls to the main/RemoteFollowSub route
lib/util:
- Port required functions from OStatusSubAction and adapt to be used with the new events
For reference (raised by rozzin in IRC):
* http://foldoc.org/module
* http://foldoc.org/library
* http://foldoc.org/plugin
As noted by XRevan86, modules are not necessarily non-essential.
As we will keep the modules directory in GS root [therefore, near to
plugins/], it is evidenced the difference between both.
This is a simple yet fundamental structural change. It doesn't change
functionality but makes clearer the way we understand GNU social's
internals.
OStatusPlugin:
- Enqueue in the last position, as it should be. No need to worry about
the OMB comment, this protocol no longer have queue handlers that could
cause a conflict.
Advantages:
* Increases security by preventing direct access to file/
* We are careful and have a defined('GNUSOCIAL') || die() to prevent
direct access to GS files, but we may miss one or a vendor/extlib may
not be as careful
* Improves directory structure - It's more natural to physically
separate what is public from what are GNU social resources
