* Replaces all references to isIgnitionError with isGhostError
* Switches use of GhostError to InternalServerError - as GhostError is no longer public
There are places where InternalServerError is not the valid error, and new errors should be added to the @tryghost/errors package to ensure that we can use semantically correct errors in those cases.

Sharp can occasionally fail resizing, this is usually due the the
underlying libvips library failing. We do not want this to cause an
error however, instead we should just show the original image - as
resizing is an optimisation, rather than a requirement.
- our themeErrorRenderer is only used in the frontend.. move it there
- this required exposing prepareError as shared middleware
- TODO: move these shared compontents to @tryghost/error
- Reduced our maintenance middleware code down to the bare minimum!
- We have an old maintenance middleware in place to handle when a site is forcibly put into maintenance mode, or the urlService hasn't finished booting
- This maintenance middleware was mounted on every sub app, instead of globally for reasons I no longer remember
- Recently, we introduced a new, static version of maintenence middleware to show during the boot process so we can get the server started earlier & not drop requests
- This version has its own HTML template and doesn't depend on any of Ghost's error rendering code
- To simplify and help with decoupling, this commit merges the two middleware, so that the new independent & static middleware renders its template for any one of the 3 possible maintenance modes
- It only needs to exist in the top level app 🙌
TODO: move the maintenance middleware to its own file/package so it's not part of the app.js as that is weird

- EACCESS error was previously caught to stop the boot process from failing with perms errors
- For clearFiless, we do not care if these files cannot be removed. Refactored to use allSettled which means we don't do them in sequence + can ignore the outcome
- For minifiy, this is now a legit error, however we don't need the activate method to fail for an EACCES error, we just need an error to be shown (I think)
- Card asset reloading was incorrectly only happening if the API version changed 🙈
- In addition, having an init function was redundant, as theme activation happens on boot
- This meant that the card assets were being generated twice on boot
- Instead, we now only generate them on theme activation, which covers the boot case and simplifies all the logic
- Currently it's assumed that public files are 100% static
- With card assets, we're using it for files that are partially static, but can change between reboots and theme changes
- We already have a system for managing cache busting across theme changes and restarts - the ?v= key that is added via the asset helper
- This was already in place and used, but servePublicFile's internal cache didn't honor this key, and cached for the lifetime of boot
- This small change means that if a ?v= query param is present on a request for a public file, that we pay attention to it. Else we cache as before

- Ghost cannot write to the core folder in correctly configured production installations
- Built assets therefore need to be written to the content directory
- Ghost does not overwrite anything in the content folder as part of an upgrade, therefore static files that are provided by Ghost
must still live inside /core

- Static files uploaded through the Admin Files API should be accessible throught the world under `/content/files/`
- Note the feature is behind an alpha "filesAPI" flag, which has to be enabled in the labs first
- This comment removes the block on themes controlling card assets via config
- It also changes the default behaviour from "false" config (doing nothing) to excluding bookmark and gallery card assets
- This is essentially the same thing, as only bookmark and gallery card assets exist at the moment, but it's being done because it makes this feature future-proof for all theme developers.
- As we add new cards, all themes will automatically get the assets to make them work
- As theme developers want to, they can create their own custom assets and disble assets for any cards they support by adding them to the exclude list
- They can also remove any custom code they currently have to support bookmark and gallery cards, and set card_assets: true in package.json to use the defaults instead
- Wired up the forntend to include and serve the minified css and js card assets if they exist
- This is a very naive implementation - ideally we wouldn't have to inject this in multiple places
- This allows us to add files to src/cards and have them included in themes
- The system is currently disabled due to an override in the theme config setting assets to false
- If we register the serve public file middleware for a file that doesn't exist, this will currently throw an ENOENT error
- Instead, we want to fall back to a standard 404 so that this behaves normally

refs https://linear.app/tryghost/issue/CORE-104/decouple-frontend-routing-events-from-urlserver-events
- "routerCreated" call was causing a need to create a dependency on the frontend Router level which didn't fit nicely with the refactor of the bootstrap into a class, it's also makes way more sense having it as an independent parameter instead of a call on a module (makes testing way more readable too!)
refs https://linear.app/tryghost/issue/CORE-104/decouple-frontend-routing-events-from-urlserver-events
- The 'settings.timezone.edited' event triggers a roundtrip chain of calls in the frontend routing to the url services. It was all handled by event listeners and handler that clearly don't belong there.
- Extracted event realted listeners/handlers into methods and moved most of the logic to the "bootstrap" module, which soon is going to become a "RoutesManger"
- The result of this refactor - no more events going back and forth between frontend routing and the backend!
- The files in the public folder are all specific to the frontend:
- ghost.css / ghost.min.css contains styles for default templates like unsubscribe, private and error
- favicon is the default for the frontend
- robots.txt is the default robots.txt for the frontend
- sitemap.xsl is the stylesheet for the sitemap

- No matter what, a handlebars helper outputs a string. So if you return true, you'll always get 'true'.
- SafeStrings are handlebars's way of passing around a string whilst also maintaining a record of the original value e.g. new SafeString(true) results in {string: true}
- We need this for the match helper, so that we know when doing a comparison that we're meant to be comparing against a boolean true, not a string true
- Therefore, we need to putput SafeStrings, but also process them when passed in
The logic
- Figuring out the correct logic here has been a little tricky but essentially:
- {{match safestring}} with a single arg, will return true for any truthy value
- {{match safestring "=" true}} does a direct comparison with the original value of the safe string, so if it was a boolean true, the match will be true else false
- {{match (match something) "=" true}} will therefore work for any level of nesting
- this can result in slightly inconsistent results, but feels correct and documentable
This is documented extensively through the test cases

- added `custom` as a supported setting in the preview header data
- `custom` should be a JSON object containing any custom theme settings
- we parse the object but only set properties on `@custom` that are known custom theme setting keys
- if parsing fails or it's not an object then no custom data is set
- updated `updateLocalTemplateOptions()` to pull `.custom` off of the preview data and pass it through so it's accessible on `@custom` as an override to the saved custom data
refs https://github.com/TryGhost/Team/issues/1097
globalTemplateOptions are supposed to be static with localTemplateOptions being merged in per-request, however the per-request preview data was being extracted and set in the global options. Comments suggest that the global data should be static and eventually updated via other means, the usage of the request object to get per-request preview data is working against that.
- adjusted the preview handler to return an object rather than changing properties by reference on a passed in object
- moved preview data fetching out of `getSiteData()` used in `updateGlobalTemplateOptions()` and into `updateLocalTemplateOptions()` so that we're not relying on the request object in `updateGlobalTemplateOptions()`
- The original intention of the proxy was to collect up all the requires in our helpers into one place
- This has since been expanded and used in more places, in more ways
- In hindsight there are now multiple different types of requires in the proxy:
- One: true frontend rendering framework requires (stuff from deep inside theme-engine)
- Two: data manipulation/sdk stuff, belongs to the frontend, ways to process API data
- Three: actual core stuff from Ghost, that we wish wasn't here / needs to be passed in a controlled way
- This commit pulls out One into a new rendering service, so at least that stuff is managed independently
- This draws the lines clearly between what's internal to the frontend and what isn't
- It also highlights that the theme-engine needs to be divided up / refactored so that we don't have these deep requires
- The frontend proxy is meant to be a way to pass critical internal pieces of Ghost core into the frontend
- These fundamental @tryghost packages are shared and can be required directly, hence there's no need to pass them via the proxy
- Reducing the surface area of the proxy reduces the proxies API
- This makes it easier to see what's left in terms of decoupling the frontend, and what will always need to be passed (e.g. api)
Note on @tryghost/social-urls:
- this is a small utility that helps create URLs for social profiles, it's a util for working with data on the frontend aka part of the sdk
- I think there should be many of these small helpers and we'll probably want to bundle them for the frontend at some point
- for now, I'm leaving these as part of the proxy, as need to figure out where they belong
- i18n is an old pattern we are getting rid of in favour of tpl
- after removing i18n from helpers, there wasn't many usages of i18n left in the frontend, this removes whats left!
- this was done on a branch at the same time as Naz's commits removing i18n from the settings-related files
- hence some of these changes are minor amends to add additional messages/change names, rather than just straightup i18n->tpl
- it's a merge of both our refactors :)

It might be a thing we need to do during the "web" app initialization, but there's no clear need to do this in a sync fassion during the bootup for example. Also having a more explicit name should help :)

refs https://linear.app/tryghost/issue/CORE-35/refactor-route-and-redirect-settings
- 'knowSettings' was based on a "configurable" array of settings that might be configured in Ghost. The multitude never happened! The only setting the frontend takes care of is routes.yaml file (redirects is also kind of a setting but is a separate concept for now).

- updated router response formatting functions and `{{#get}}` helper response handling to make any `feature_image_caption` properties in the response a `SafeString` instance so triple-curlies are not needed when using the property in themes
- The main aim here is to end up with a simple and clear public API for the meta module
- Secondarily, we want to make it a bit clearer which bits don't really belong here so we can see what to do with them
- To achieve this, the main logic has been moved into get-meta (although there's still some logic here which needs moving further)
- The index.js now has a small clear public API, and the proxy, which is the only way this is consumed, is able to use the public API directly
- This function is quite different to the others, as it generates an excerpt from HTML (truncating)
- Most functions in the meta data folder just contain content negotiation logic, like if post then feature_image else cover_image type things

- Therefore, I have restored these messages in the places where they were used, except amp_content, where I have written a new message, as the message that was there was not relevant
- This is part of the quest to separate the frontend and server & get rid of all the places where there are cross-requires
- At the moment the settings cache is one big shared cache used by the frontend and server liberally
- This change doesn't really solve the fundamental problems, as we still depend on events, and requires from inside frontend
- However it allows us to control the misuse slightly better by getting rid of restricted requires and turning on that eslint ruleset
- At the moment the bootstrap.start method asks the settings service for its settings
- This couples the routing and settings services together - when maybe we want to use a different method to generate settings
- By passing the settings to the routing service at the right time, we open up possibilities for refactoring
- The main goal here is getting this settings related code out of the routing service as it really doesn't belong there
- This settings file is used purely by the API to get and set files - its not really anything to do with actual routing
- This file calls out to the bridge to do a reload, which helps decouple slightly
- More refactoring is needed to get rid of the urlService dependency
- Note this file is really similar to the redirects one, it would be good to merge them

- This couples the routing and settings services together - when maybe we want to use a different method to generate settings
- By passing the settings to the routing service at the right time, we open up possibilities for refactoring
- broken down large function into smaller functions to reduce repeated code
- try to make this and the redirects equivalent look similar
- this code is the getter and setter for the API
- TODO: I think this can be further refactored into a settings file class
- Allows for slight decoupling of API and frontend with route settings being updated
- Activate theme now calls the same codepath to reload the frontend
- Yet another step on the path to make it possible to init/reload/run the frontend independently from the server

- without crossorigin=anonymous attribute, browsers obfuscate error messages from external scripts, which makes error tracking with sentry impossible
- with crossorigin attribute, portal script needs to be served with cors header or browsers will block it
- unpkg already serves the script with `access-control-allow-origin: *`
- Part of the effort to split Ghost down into smaller, decoupled pieces
- Moved out our internal validator tooling to a separate library
- Replaced all usage of our own tooling and validatorjs directly with @tryghost/validator
- Removed the validatorjs dependency and removed the renovate pin
- This gives us a consistant, smaller, clearer public API for validations
- It will eventually be used on Ghost Admin too
- This way we can start getting up to date with validator whilst not increasing build size
no issue
The only pieces of Ghost-Ignition used in Ghost were debug and
logging. Both of these modules have been superceded by the Framework
monorepo, and all usages of Ignition have now been removed, replaced
with @tryghost/debug and @tryghost/logging.
- Traditionally all of Ghost's public-facing text was written in British English
- We're changing that to US English because that's more common
- US English should also be used in code e.g. properties are called color not colour
- most of these changes are in comments, but I've changed them so that we have US English in front of us always
- fixed a few other typos I noticed whilst there

With multiple products, each product can have an active monthly/yearly price, so we no longer store the monthly/yearly price ids in global settings but instead store them in product table directly. This means we need to update our global `@price` helper to also use the updated schema and use the monthly/yearly prices from product table instead of settings data.

- wired up a matchHelper feature flag & used the labsEnabledHelper tool to gate the helper
- added a first version of the match helper, which is intended to replace the has helper
- this is an experimental helper and may or may not make it to GA
- match is a simple comparison helper, right now it does a very basic equals or not equals comparison
- much more functionality is needed to reach parity with has
- we don't need to use _.escape from lodash as we already have escapeExpression from handlebars
- it's more correct to use the escape utility from our theme engine when escaping strings _for_ our theme engine!
- Note there is a minor difference between the two:
- Lodash: &, <, >, " and '
- refs: https://lodash.com/docs/4.17.15#escape
- Handlebars: &, <, >, ", ', ` and =
- refs: https://handlebarsjs.com/api-reference/utilities.html#helper-utilities
- This could cause slightly weird behaviour in themes around ` and = characters, but as it's just convering to html entities it should be fine

- Defaults to an empty array on `@products` so we have valid data
(product should be null if products isn't)

As part of changes in 4.6, the default price ids for monthly/yearly prices are stored in new settings - `members_monthly_price_id`, `members_yearly_price_id` - which are used to determine current active prices for the site from list of all existing prices. While the last commit updated the prices to use the settings, the data for currency was still used from non-zero prices instead of the new settings value.
- Updated tests to check price currency

As part of changes in 4.6, the default price ids for monthly/yearly prices are stored in new settings - `members_monthly_price_id`, `members_yearly_price_id` - which are used to determine current active prices for the site from list of all existing prices. The `@price` helper was incorrectly still relying on the old logic for active monthly/yearly price using the first active price with matching nickname, and resulted in showing incorrect price data on the theme.
- Updated tests to check price data using settings value
no-issue
Since we now allow archiving prices, we should filter them out from
being considered the monthly or yearly plan, as they are unable to be
subscribed to.
no-issue
Themes which use the `@price` data will have a 400 error if they are not
setup prices. This adds default price data so that the theme will not
error.
refs https://github.com/TryGhost/Team/issues/668
Since we no longer store price data in the settings we must use the api
to read the stripe prices for the default price, so that we can maintain
backwards compatibility for the `@price` data in themes.
- we need the basePath concept for the main i18n class so we can pull it out into a module
- we already had this in the themeI18n class, so I just had to move it up
- also I added a default of __dirname, so we don't have to declare this constantly in the tests
- Reworking the location of i18n in boot has fixed the main error
- However, many of our tests depend on i18n being loaded but don't explicitly call init
- There are many ways we could fix this in our tests, but I don't want to spend more time on this now
- final preparation for moving i18n out of Ghost core
- logging is passed in via DI
- theme i18n needs a config value, but no need to pass all of config for one parameter, a better pattern is to pass the one value needed
- preparation for moving the base class out of Ghost
- refactored so that all the logic for file loading and fallbacks live in the base class
- theme i18n now only overrides init with the properties it needs, filepath generation and error handling
- this makes it much easier to move the i18n file out, and eventually have theme i18n live elsewhere too
- also prepares for using DI for logging
- when activating a theme, we need to load the current locale
- this request used to be buried deep in the themeI18n init call
- now we surface it in the bridge and pass it down, which is closer to what we want to do with eventually initialising the frontend
with everything it needs up front (or not initialising it, if it isn't needed)
- in the related helpers we depend on the site.locale value instead of proxy -> themeI18n -> settingsCache drastically simplifying the code and removing deep requires
- site.locale is updated via middleware and can be relied upon
- the core i18n library and theme i18n library have slightly different methods of getting a candidate string
- both of them use forms of jsonpath, meaning they both require jsonpath as a dependency
- to try to get to a point of being able to rip more things out of ghost, we want to have less dependencies
- so instead of overloading the method, we pass in a stringMode as an argument
- eventually we might not need an overloaded class for themeI18n at all, which would simplify the codebase
- preparation for using DI instead of requires, so we can move this out of Ghost
- have done this for both the main i18n and theme i18n file
- refactored the constructor
- single authors were deprecated in v1.22 when we added multiple authors
- we always thought we'd clean this up a lot sooner, but it's stuck because it's an annoying thing to break people's shit over
- still saying "remove in vX" isn't useful, we need to know how long a feature has been deprecated so we can judge whether it's safe to remove

- i18n is used everywhere but only requires shared or external packages, therefore it's a good candidate for living in shared
- this reduces invalid requires across frontend and server, and lets us use it everywhere until we come up with a better option
- Having these as destructured from the same package is hindering refactoring now
- Events should really only ever be used server-side
- i18n should be a shared module for now so it can be used everywhere until we figure out something better
- Having them seperate also allows us to lint them properly

Themes Service
- The serverside theme service now serves just the API and boot
- It loads the theme and passes it to the theme-engine via the bridge
This achieves the bare minimum goal of removing all the cross requires between server and frontend around themes
There is still a lot more to do to achieve an ideal architecture here as laid out in ae86254972

- continuing the work of splitting up the theme service into logical components
Theme activations are a trickier piece of the theme split puzzle because they are called from the API and theme service on boot in different ways.
Activations require a theme to have been validated at different levels. Validations are also tricky - do they belong to the theme engine, or the theme service?
There are then several different flows for activations:
- On Boot
- API "activate" call
- API override on upload or install via setFromZip, which is a method in the storage layer
These calls all have quite different logical flows at the moment, and need to be unified
For now, I've moved the existing "activate" function onto the bridge. This allows the theme service to be split from the frontend, and refactoring can start from there.
I hope to move this so there is less code in the actual bridge very soon, but my goal is not to require any server packages in the frontend part of this
I think ideally:
- all activation code, including validation, should probably be part of the theme engine
- the theme engine should offer 3 methods: getActive() canActivate() and activate()
- the theme service is then only responsible for loading themes in and out of storage, JSON responses for the API, and handing themes to the frontend via the bridge at the appropriate moment
- Modules in /shared are supposed to be standalone modules that can be required by the server or frontend
- As the server shouldn't require the frontend, and vice versa, shared modules should require neither
- Otherwise it just becomes a crutch for allowing cross-depenencies, and will create circular dependencies
The Bridge
- The bridge file is not meant to be a crutch sat allowing cross-dependencies, but rather a new component that manages the flow of data
- That data flows from the server/boot process TO the frontend, and should not flow in the other direction
- The management of that flow of data is necessarily hacky at the moment, but over time the architecture here should get clearer and better
- Still, for the time being it will need to handle requiring across components until that architecture matures
- Therefore, it should live in core root, not in core/shared
refs: bf0823c9a2
- continuing the work of splitting up the theme service into logical components
- This one is a little more involved, as the i18n initialisation was unnecessarily spread over several locations.
- I moved it into being part of the ActiveTheme class and called in the constructor, meaning we don't need the services.theme.activated event anymore as the constructor is called in the same cases.
- Also moved the event listener for locales into the bridge, as I don't want that inside of theme-engine, and we don't want circular dependencies. We'll figure out a wayto refactor this soon too.
refs: bf0823c9a2
- Added a new bridge class that lives in shared. This should eventually be responsible for all cross-communication between the frontend and the server
- Having all the gnarly shared bits in one place should help us refactor more easily
- For now it also reduces requires between the core/server and core/frontend folders that are meant to be separate
- All calls to getApiVersion have also been renamed to getFrontendApiVersion, as this is different to the "default" API version
- Slowly getting to the point where frontend/services/themes can be moved to server/services/themes :)
