- "To" drop-down list now defaults to showing "Select recipient:" instead of the first person on your list, reducing liklihood of accidentally sending a message to the wrong person.
- When there are no mutual subscribers to send to, instead of an empty list the list now shows 'No mutual subscribers.'
In both cases, attempting to send when the default is selected displays an error message.
I'm not disabling form elements in part because our themes right now don't show disabled button state correctly; we might want to tighten that up a bit more once fixed.
When the retweet failed with a 403 error (say due to it being a private tweet, which can't be retweeted) we would end up mishandling the return value from our internal error handling.
Instead of correctly discarding the message and closing out the queue item, we ended up trying to save a bogus twitter<->local ID mapping, which threw another exception and lead the queue system to re-run it.
- Fixed the logic check and return values for the retweet case in broadcast_twitter().
- Added doc comments explaining the return values on some functions in twitter.php
- Added check on Notice_to_status::saveNew() for empty input -- throw an exception before we try to actually insert into db. :)
Data are sent to the 'info' level of logging, like so:
[lazarus.local:4812.86b23603 GET /mublog/api/statuses/friends_timeline.atom?since_id=1353]
STATLOG action:apitimelinefriends method:GET ssl:no query:since_id cookie:no auth:yes
ifmatch:no ifmod:no agent:Appcelerator Titanium/1.4.1 (iPhone/4.1; iPhone OS; en_US;)
Fields:
* action: case-normalized name of the action class we're acting on
* method: GET, POST, HEAD, etc
* ssl: Are we on HTTPS? 'yes' or 'no'
* query: Were we sent a query string? 'yes', 'no', or 'since_id' if the only parameter is a since_id
* cookie: Were we sent any cookies? 'yes' or 'no'
* auth: Were we sent an HTTP Authorization header? 'yes' or 'no'
* ifmatch: Were we sent an HTTP If-Match header for an ETag? 'yes' or 'no'
* ifmod: Were we sent an HTTP If-Modified-Since header? 'yes' or 'no'
* agent: User-agent string, to aid in figuring out what these things are
The most shared-cache-friendly requests will be non-SSL GET requests with no or very predictable
query parameters, no cookies, and no authorization headers. Private caching (eg within a supporting
user-agent) could still be friendly to SSL and auth'd GET requests.
We kind of expect that the most frequent hits from clients will be GETs for a few common timelines,
with auth headers, a since_id-only query, and no cookies. These should at least be amenable to
returning 304 matches for etags or last-modified headers with private caching, but it's very
possible that most clients won't actually think to save and send them. That would leave us expecting
to handle a lot of timeline since_id hits that return a valid API response with no notices.
At this point we don't expect to actually see if-match or if-modified-since a lot since most of our
API responses are marked as uncacheable; so even if we output them they're not getting sent back to
us.
Random subsampling can be enabled by setting the 'frequency' parameter smaller than 1.0:
addPlugin('ApiLogger', array(
'frequency' => 0.5 // Record 50% of API hits
));
