- We'd like to use prometheus to expose metrics from Ghost, but the
"standard" approach of having prometheus scrape the `/metrics` endpoint
adds some complexity and additional challenges on Pro.
- A suggested simpler alternative is to use a pushgateway, to have Ghost
_push_ metrics to prometheus, rather than have prometheus scrape the
running instances.
- This PR introduces this functionality behind a configuration.
- It also includes a refactor to the current metrics-server
implementation so all the related code for prometheus is colocated, and
the configuration is a bit more organized. `@tryghost/metrics-server`
has been renamed to `@tryghost/prometheus-metrics`, and it now includes
the metrics server and prometheus-client code itself (including the
pushgateway code)
- To enable the prometheus client alone, `prometheus:enabled` must be
true. This will _not_ enable the metrics server or the pushgateway — it
will essentially collect the metrics, but not do anything with them.
- To enable the metrics server, set `prometheus:metrics_server:enabled`
to true. You can also configure the host and port that the metrics
server should export the `/metrics` endpoint on in the
`prometheus:metrics_server` block.
- To enable the pushgateway, set `prometheus:pushgateway:enabled` to
true. You can also configure the pushgateway's `url`, the `interval` it
should push metrics in (in milliseconds) and the `jobName` in the
`prometheus:pushgateway` block.

We want to preempt the Accept activity from our Follows, so we make the
assumption that it's succeeded. What this means is that we have to
update our `following`, `followingCount` as well as the fetched profile
to set the `isFollowing` property. This gives a more fluid user
experience when following accounts and keeps our state up to date.
Accounts where the follow request has to be accepted manually, are a
little trickier as we don't currently have easy access to the "requested
but not accepted state"
- using lodash to do this is unnecessarily heavy, so this commit
switches the code to the equivalent native version
- as mentioned in the comment I added, I think we can further optimize
this by storing it as a Set and then calling `Array.from` once, but
that's a step too far for now
- we can skip an extra `toJSON` call here by storing the value and
re-using it, which means we can cut down on the number of calls, which
can be particularly heavy when this codepath is hit hard
no issue
- following pull requests #21251 and #21497, this commit adds pt-BR
translations to newsletter.json and fixes other strings in pt-BR locale

- Fixed comments placeholder to change from "Start the conversation" to
"Join the discussion" when there's more than 1 comment.
- Previously, it only worked after a refresh. This fix ensures it's
reactive and would update the placeholder without the need for a
refresh.

refs https://www.sqlite.org/limits.html
SQLite has limit of 500 items in a compound select statement.
This limit could be hit when a complex select statement was being
generated as part of a batch insert statement.
Lowering the batch size will have minimal impact on migration
performance while improving SQLite compatibility.
One of these bulk inserts is confirmed to be affected through the linked
issue.
I didn't confirm if the other two cases would trigger it, but the change
won't hurt there either.

- added background job queue behind config flags
- when enabled, is only used for the member email analytics updates in
order to speed up the parent job, and take load off of the main process
that is serving requests
The intent here is to decouple certain code paths from the main process where it is unnecessary, or worse, where it's part of the request. Primary use cases are email analytics (particularly the member stats [open rate]) which are not particularly helpful in the period immediately following an email send, while the click traffic and delivered/opened events are.
Related, the email link clicks themselves send off a cascade of events that are quite a burden on the main process currently and are somewhat tied to the request response when they needn't be. We'll be looking to tackle that after some initial testing with the email analytics job.

- Added an `orderAttributes` override method to be able to pass
`count__likes` to the `findPage` DB helper.
- Unknowingly, without that override method in the model, it would strip
all 'non-default' queries.
- Adding that means we could remove our custom database queries and use
the regular `findPage` helper that also handles pagination.

This change adds the ability to pass a desired language/locale into
portal, as a data-locale tag added to the script that loads it.
Falls back to the previous behavior, loading from the site settings, if
no data-locale is present. (And then to 'en', if necessary.) No change
in expected behavior if data-locale is not passed.
This provides an option to run portal in a language other than the
sitewide language.

- When we added i18n for search we missed gating it behind the i18n flag.
- There aren't that many translations for search yet, so it's likely not many have noticed yet
- We'll remove the flag soon, but until then, adding the flag for consistency :)

{{ghost_head}} is huge, and some power-users and theme creators want the
ability to customize what it contains. This PR makes it easier for a
theme to write custom schema, or to load a custom version of
portal/comments/search/etc, or to minimize load times by not loading
scripts where they aren't needed, in a theme-specific way.
Because ghost_head is controlled at the theme level, this gives folks in
managed hosting the new ability to load a different version of the
included app scripts (by preventing ghost_head from writing them and
adding them in manually).
Usage example: ` {{ghost_head exclude="search,portal"}} `
(empty array)
No changes to current behavior
search
The built-in sodo-search script
Includes adding the click event listener on buttons, generating the

- adding `context` with the returned API response makes the logged error much more useful as without it we only log the status code which misses any details for why the failure occurred
no issue
This PR adds the ability to translate the strings that appear in the
newsletter as boilerplate text, using i18next.
Variables are in single mustaches ( `{date}` ) in the translation
strings (rather than `{{date}}`), because these strings occur both the
email template.hbs and also .js files. That necessitated a separate
namespace.
This PR also includes changes to the newsletter button ("more like
this", "less like this", "comment") that were previously delivered on
desktop as images that included the text. @sanne-san provided a rework
that removed text-as-image from the desktop buttons, and allows more
shared code between the two layouts, along with making the buttons
translatable.
Example usage - handlebars
```
<h3 class="latest-posts-header">{{t 'Keep reading'}}</h3>
{{{t 'By {authors}' authors=post.authors }}}
```
(NOTE: triple { required because of possible & )
Example usage - javascript
```
getValue: (member) => {
if (member.status === 'comped') {
return t('complimentary');
}
if (this.isMemberTrialing(member)) {
return t('trialing');
}
// other possible statuses: t('free'), t('paid') //
return t(member.status);
}
```
