Allow access to account settings, 2FA, authorized applications, and
account deletions to unconfirmed and pending users, as well as
users who had their accounts disabled. Suspended users cannot update
their e-mail or password or delete their account.
Display account status on account settings page, for example, when
an account is frozen, limited, unconfirmed or pending review.
After sign up, login users straight away and show a simple page that
tells them the status of their account with links to account settings
and logout, to reduce onboarding friction and allow users to correct
wrongly typed e-mail addresses.
Move the final sign-up step of SSO integrations to be the same
as above to reduce code duplication.

* Remove poll validation for remote polls
* Add polls to public pages
* When updating the poll, update options just in case they were changed
* Fix public pages showing both poll and other media
* Add REST API for creating an account
The method is available to apps with a token obtained via the client
credentials grant. It creates a user and account records, as well as
an access token for the app that initiated the request. The user is
unconfirmed, and an e-mail is sent as usual.
The method returns the access token, which the app should save for
later. The REST API is not available to users with unconfirmed
accounts, so the app must be smart to wait for the user to click a
link in their e-mail inbox.
The method is rate-limited by IP to 5 requests per 30 minutes.
* Redirect users back to app from confirmation if they were created with an app
* Add tests

* Group scopes in screen and color-code dangerous ones
* Fix wrong extra scope
* Re-add follow recommendations API
GET /api/v1/suggestions
Removed in 8efa081f21 due to Neo4J
dependency. The algorithm uses triadic closures, takes into account
suspensions, blocks, mutes, domain blocks, excludes locked and moved
accounts, and prefers more recently updated accounts.
* Track interactions with people you don't follow
Replying to, favouriting and reblogging someone you're not following
will make them show up in follow recommendations. The interactions
have different weights:
- Replying is 1
- Favouriting is 10 (decidedly positive interaction, but private)
- Reblogging is 20
Following them, muting or blocking will remove them from the list,
obviously.
* Remove triadic closures, ensure potential friendships are trimmed
* Add keyword filtering
GET|POST /api/v1/filters
GET|PUT|DELETE /api/v1/filters/:id
- Irreversible filters can drop toots from home or notifications
- Other filters can hide toots through the client app
- Filters use a phrase valid in particular contexts, expiration
* Make sure expired filters don't get applied client-side
* Add missing API methods
* Remove "regex filter" from column settings
* Add tests
* Add test for FeedManager
* Add CustomFilter test
* Add UI for managing filters
* Add streaming API event to allow syncing filters
* Fix tests
- POST /api/v1/push/subscription
- PUT /api/v1/push/subscription
- DELETE /api/v1/push/subscription
- New OAuth scope: "push" (required for the above methods)
* Enable updating additional account information from user preferences via rest api
Resolves#6553
* Pacify rubocop
* Decoerce incoming settings in UserSettingsDecorator
* Create user preferences hash directly from incoming credentials instead of going through ActionController::Parameters
* Clean up user preferences update
* Use ActiveModel::Type::Boolean instead of manually checking stringified number equivalence
* Break out nested relationship API keys
This closes#5856 by restoring the existing behavior of the `muting`
and `following` keys (returning booleans rather than truthy or false).
It adds `showing_reblogs` and `muting_notifications` keys:
* `showing_reblogs` returns true if:
1. You've requested to follow the user, with reblogs shown, or
2. You are following the user, with reblogs shown.
* `muting_notifications` returns true if you have muted the user and
their notifications as well.
* Rubocop fix
* Fix pulling reblog/mute status from relationships
I could swear this had passed tests before, but apparently not.
Works now.
* More test fixes
Really, you'd expect this to be more straightforward.
* Allow hiding of reblogs from followed users
This adds a new entry to the account menu to allow users to hide
future reblogs from a user (and then if they've done that, to show
future reblogs instead).
This does not remove or add historical reblogs from/to the user's
timeline; it only affects new statuses.
The API for this operates by sending a "reblogs" key to the follow
endpoint. If this is sent when starting a new follow, it will be
respected from the beginning of the follow relationship (even if
the follow request must be approved by the followee). If this is
sent when a follow relationship already exists, it will simply
update the existing follow relationship. As with the notification
muting, this will now return an object ({reblogs: [true|false]}) or
false for each follow relationship when requesting relationship
information for an account. This should cause few issues due to an
object being truthy in many languages, but some modifications may
need to be made in pickier languages.
Database changes: adds a show_reblogs column (default true,
non-nullable) to the follows and follow_requests tables. Because
these are non-nullable, we use the existing MigrationHelpers to
perform this change without locking those tables, although the
tables are likely to be small anyway.
Tests included.

* Rubocop fixes
* Code review changes
* Test fixes
This patchset closes#648 and resolves#3271.
* Rubocop fix
* Revert reblogs defaulting in argument, fix tests
It turns out we needed this for the same reason we needed it in muting:
if nil gets passed in somehow (most usually by an API client not passing
any value), we need to detect and handle it.
We could specify a default in the parameter and then also catch nil, but
there's no great reason to duplicate the default value.
* Add structure for lists
* Add list timeline streaming API
* Add list APIs, bind list-account relation to follow relation
* Add API for adding/removing accounts from lists

* Make the Toggle in the mute modal look better
* Code style changes in specs and removed an extra space
* Code review suggestions from akihikodaki
Also fixed a syntax error in tests for AccountInteractions.
* Make AddHideNotificationsToMute Concurrent
It's not clear how much this will benefit instances in practice, as the
number of mutes tends to be pretty small, but this should prevent any
blocking migrations nonetheless.
* Fix up migration things
* Remove /api/v2/mutes
* Return sensible HTTP status for ActivityPub inbox processing
* Return sensible HTTP status for salmon slap processing
* Return additional information to debug signature verification failures
* Fix#117 - Add ability to specify alternative text for media attachments

- PUT /api/v1/media/:id to update `description` (only for unattached ones)
- Serialized as `name` of Document object in ActivityPub
- Uploads form adjusted for better performance and description input
* Add tests
* Change undo button blend mode to difference
* Fix JavaScript interface with long IDs
Somewhat predictably, the JS interface handled IDs as numbers, which in
JS are IEEE double-precision floats. This loses some precision when
working with numbers as large as those generated by the new ID scheme,
so we instead handle them here as strings. This is relatively simple,
and doesn't appear to have caused any problems, but should definitely
be tested more thoroughly than the built-in tests. Several days of use
appear to support this working properly.
BREAKING CHANGE:
The major(!) change here is that IDs are now returned as strings by the
REST endpoints, rather than as integers. In practice, relatively few
changes were required to make the existing JS UI work with this change,
but it will likely hit API clients pretty hard: it's an entirely
different type to consume. (The one API client I tested, Tusky, handles
this with no problems, however.)
Twitter ran into this issue when introducing Snowflake IDs, and decided
to instead introduce an `id_str` field in JSON responses. I have opted
to *not* do that, and instead force all IDs to 64-bit integers
represented by strings in one go. (I believe Twitter exacerbated their
problem by rolling out the changes three times: once for statuses, once
for DMs, and once for user IDs, as well as by leaving an integer ID
value in JSON. As they said, "If you’re using the `id` field with JSON
in a Javascript-related language, there is a very high likelihood that
the integers will be silently munged by Javascript interpreters. In most
cases, this will result in behavior such as being unable to load or
delete a specific direct message, because the ID you're sending to the
API is different than the actual identifier associated with the
message." [1]) However, given that this is a significant change for API
users, alternatives or a transition time may be appropriate.

* Additional fixes for stringified IDs in JSON
These should be the last two. These were identified using eslint to try
to identify any plain casts to JavaScript numbers. (Some such casts are
legitimate, but these were not.)
Adding the following to .eslintrc.yml will identify casts to numbers:
~~~
no-restricted-syntax:
- warn
- selector: UnaryExpression[operator='+'] > :not(Literal)
message: Avoid the use of unary +
- selector: CallExpression[callee.name='Number']
message: Casting with Number() may coerce string IDs to numbers
~~~
The remaining three casts appear legitimate: two casts to array indices,
one in a server to turn an environment variable into a number.
* Back out RelationshipsController Change
This was made to make a test a bit less flakey, but has nothing to
do with this branch.
* Change internal streaming payloads to stringified IDs as well
Per
https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/pull/5019#issuecomment-330736452
we need these changes to send deleted status IDs as strings, not
integers.
* Raise an error for remote url in StatusFinder
Previous implementation had allowed remote url with status id which also exists on local.
Then that bug leads /api/web/embed to return wrong embed url.
* Fix oembed_controller_spec
* Do not raise unretryable exceptions in ResolveRemoteAccountService
* Removed fatal exceptions from ResolveRemoteAccountService
Exceptions that cannot be retried should not be raised. New exception
class for those that can be retried (Mastodon::UnexpectedResponseError)
* Improve webfinger templates and make tests more flexible
* Clean up AS2 representation of actor
* Refactor outbox
* Create activities representation
* Add representations of followers/following collections, do not redirect /users/:username route if format is empty
* Remove unused translations
* ActivityPub endpoint for single statuses, add ActivityPub::TagManager for better
URL/URI generation
* Add ActivityPub::TagManager#to
* Represent all attachments as Document instead of Image/Video specifically
(Because for remote ones we may not know for sure)
Add mentions and hashtags representation to AP notes
* Add AP-resolvable hashtag URIs
* Use ActiveModelSerializers for ActivityPub
* Clean up unused translations
* Separate route for object and activity
* Adjust cc/to matrices
* Add to/cc to activities, ensure announce activity embeds target status and
not the wrapper status, add "id" to all collections
Each of mute, favourite, reblog has been updated to:
- Have a separate controller with just a create and destroy action
- Preserve historical route names to not break the API
- Mild refactoring to break up long methods
* Add specs for api statuses routes
* Update favourited_by and reblogged_by api routes
* Move methods into new controllers
* Use load_accounts methods to simplify index actions
* Clean up load_accounts methods
* Clean up link header generation

* Remove specs for moved actions
* Move ApiController to Api/BaseController
* API controllers inherit from Api::BaseController
* Add coverage for various error cases in api/base controller
* Redirect to streaming_api_base_url
When Rails receives a request to streaming API, it most likely
means that there is another host which is configured to respond
to it. This is to redirect clients to that host if
`STREAMING_API_BASE_URL` is set as another host.
* Use the new Ruby 1.9 hash syntax
- Increase coverage to exercise all parts of each action
- Move into namespace to share common code
- Misc refactor of each action for smaller methods, simpler code
* Add <ostatus:conversation /> tag to Atom input/output
Only uses ref attribute (not href) because href would be
the alternate link that's always included also.
Creates new conversation for every non-reply status. Carries
over conversation for every reply. Keeps remote URIs verbatim,
generates local URIs on the fly like the rest of them.
* Conversation muting - prevents notifications that reference a conversation
(including replies, favourites, reblogs) from being created. API endpoints
/api/v1/statuses/:id/mute and /api/v1/statuses/:id/unmute
Currently no way to tell when a status/conversation is muted, so the web UI
only has a "disable notifications" button, doesn't work as a toggle
* Display "Dismiss notifications" on all statuses in notifications column, not just own
* Add "muted" as a boolean attribute on statuses JSON
For now always false on contained reblogs, since it's only relevant for
statuses returned from the notifications endpoint, which are not nested
Remove "Disable notifications" from detailed status view, since it's
only relevant in the notifications column
* Up max class length
* Remove pending test for conversation mute
* Add tests, clean up
* Rename to "mute conversation" and "unmute conversation"
* Raise validation error when trying to mute/unmute status without conversation

The spec was checking the activity_id of the activities held in notifications
within the controller.
Because the activities are different models, it is possible that they are
created with the same database IDs, and when they are this spec fails because an
activity which should not count as a match is counted as one.
* Allow users to update their Account in the API
It would be nice for API clients to be able to allow users to update
their accounts without having to wrap Mastodon in a web view. This patch
adds an API endpoint to let users submit a PATCH for their account.

Filters out hidden stream entries from Atom feed
Blocks now generate hidden stream entries, can be used to federate blocks
Private statuses cannot be reblogged (generates generic 422 error for now)
POST /api/v1/statuses now takes visibility=(public|unlisted|private) param instead of unlisted boolean
Statuses JSON now contains visibility=(public|unlisted|private) field

Fetching atom extracted from FetchRemoteAccountService and FetchRemoteStatusService
into FetchAtomService. Mentions of the constant "http://activityschema.org/collection/public"
skipped as it's not a real URL/user.
This is a big one, so let me enumerate:
Accounts as well as stream entry pages now contain Link headers that
reference the Atom feed and Webfinger URL for the former and Atom entry
for the latter. So you only need to HEAD those resources to get that
information, no need to download and parse HTML <link>s.
ProcessFeedService will now queue ThreadResolveWorker for each remote
status that it cannot find otherwise. Furthermore, entries are now
processed in reverse order (from bottom to top) in case a newer entry
references a chronologically previous one.
ThreadResolveWorker uses FetchRemoteStatusService to obtain a status
and attach the child status it was queued for to it.
FetchRemoteStatusService looks up the URL, first with a HEAD, tests
if it's an Atom feed, in which case it processes it directly. Next
for Link headers to the Atom feed, in which case that is fetched
and processed. Lastly if it's HTML, it is checked for <link>s to the Atom
feed, and if such is found, that is fetched and processed. The account for
the status is derived from author/name attribute in the XML and the hostname
in the URL (domain). FollowRemoteAccountService and ProcessFeedService
are used.
This means that potentially threads are resolved recursively until a dead-end
is encountered, however it is performed asynchronously over background jobs,
so it should be ok.
