no issue
- author line was appearing as "Author One,Author Two,..." with no space
- fixed the generation of `post.authors` when serializing a post before it's rendered for email

- following on from f4fb0fcbaa,
this commit moves around some package requires in Ghost
- these are often niche packages that do something in a subsystem of
Ghost, and are not necessarily be needed to boot the application
- these packages use non-negligible CPU and memory when they are
required, so it makes sense to lazy-require them
- the concern here is that we obscure the code too much by moving
random requires further into code, but the changes are small and the
improvements big
- this commit bring the boot time since 4.19.0 down ~31% and initial
memory usage down by a total of ~12%

Rendering segmented emails uses `cheerio` to parse and re-render the html but this had a side-effect of converting the `$#39;` char code to the more modern `$apos;` code resulting in Outlook not understanding quotes inside inlined CSS and showing the raw char code if it appeared in the email contents.
- extracted our handling of the unsupported char codes from the main email html generation into a function so that it can be re-used when generating segmented html
refs https://github.com/TryGhost/Team/issues/1007
- `:root` selector wasn't working as expected and ended up matching HRs within content
- switched to wrapping the post html inside a `<body>` element before parsing so that we have a proper top-level element for direct child selectors to match against
refs https://github.com/TryGhost/Team/issues/1007
- the new `email-cta` card allows surrounding dividers to be added when rendering, however if the card is at the beginning or end of the post then these would double-up with the already existing dividers at the beginning and end of the post content in the email template
- not wanting leading/trailing HR's is specific to the email template so it made sense to adjust the renderer output in Ghost's email generating rather than forcing all mobiledoc->html rendering to remove leading/trailing HR's

- applied same darkening of accent color in emails as we use in editor when there's insufficient contrast of accent color against a white background
refs https://github.com/TryGhost/Team/issues/928
- duplicated email template so email-cta changes can go into the labs version
- added `accentContrastColor` to template settings for using white/black depending on the accent color
- added `.gh-btn-accent` styles to the email template (email-cta card already uses those for the button)

It's now possible to set alt and caption for post feature images using `feature_image_alt` and `feature_image_caption` fields on a post resource.
- `feature_image_alt` - plain text, limited to 191 chars (alt text is not recommended to be longer than 125 chars, screen readers may cut the description off at that point)
- `feature_image_caption` - basic HTML, limited to 65535 chars
Alt and caption will be automatically used inside of newsletter content, for your website content make sure your theme is updated to use the v4 API and make use of the new properties.

- removed `featureImageMeta` labs flag
- 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

- The method was not easy to understand after skimming through it.
- As we are working on developing a similar pattern for upcoming similar featured created a basic test suited to see input/output relation clearly

New settings added for newsletter customisation options:
- `newsletter_header_image` - `null/"$url"`
- `newsletter_show_header_icon` - `"true/false"`
- `newsletter_show_header_title` - `"true/false"`
- `newsletter_title_alignment` - `"center/left"`
- `newsletter_title_font_category` - `"serif/sans_serif"`
- `newsletter_show_feature_image` - `"true/false"`
`newsletter_show_header` has been dropped because the same functionality can be achieved by setting both `newsletter_show_header_icon` and `newsletter_show_header_title` to `false`
---
- migration to convert and delete `newsletter_show_header` setting
- removed `newsletter_show_header` from default settings to ensure it doesn't get re-created
- replaced main labs template and template settings generation with the labs template
- deleted labs template
no issue
- when feature image redesign flag is enabled add the caption under the feature image when available
- adds extra class for feature image so spacing can be adjusted when the caption is present
refs https://github.com/TryGhost/Team/issues/755
- the default value for `show_header_icon` is `true` but if there's no publication icon set then it should be read as `false` when rendering the email
refs https://github.com/TryGhost/Team/issues/755
Make use of the new settings in the email template when `enableDeveloperExperiments` flag is enabled.
- added header image output if set
- hide all header output if both show publication title+icon are disabled
- hide individual header output for title and logo based on individual settings
- add left-align and serif classes to title based on individual settings
- hide feature image when disabled
no issue
- we were attempting to read an image file to determine it's dimensions when no feature image was set. This wasn't a fatal error as it was handled gracefully and had no ill consequences but it was adding confusing errors to the logs
closes https://github.com/TryGhost/Team/issues/675
Outlook will display images at their native resolution if no `width` attribute is supplied. Content images were fixed a while ago but feature images would still render very wide and cause horizontal scroll and text size/alignment issues.
- modify `post.feature_image` and add a `post.feature_image_width` property before passing it through to the email template
- for Unsplash images we assume all images are larger than 600px so we change the URL to reference a 1200px image and set the image width to 600 (to keep images on retina displays crisp)
- for other images we probe the image to fetch the original dimensions and give set an image width of 600 if needed, if it's a locally-hosted image we update the URL to point at a max 1200px version
- updated email template to output a `width` attribute on the feature image `<img>` tag if it's set

- The code in serializePostModel was broken and always defaulted to 'v3'! It refered to non-existent `model.get('api_version')` there's no such field in posts model! Changed the implementation so that the API version is passed in as a parameter to the method instead
- The style of providing "defaults" everywhere creates a need for future maintenance when we bump the version e.g in Ghost v5. Maybe reworking these methods to require a passed version and throwing an error instead would be more maintainable long-term?
no-issue
We want to give users to ability to customise the content of their newsletter, and the first step
toward that is a setting in which we can store text or html to embed in the template
refs https://github.com/TryGhost/Ghost/issues/12355
- Adds new default settings for newsletter customisations - `newsletter_show_badge`, `newsletter_show_header` and `newsletter_body_font_category`
- Adds migrations to update group for new settings
- Add migration to update settings based on existing config value for newsletter settings
- Passes new newsletter settings to newsletter template and updates design based on them
- Fix tests
no issue
- store raw content in email record
- keep any replacement strings in the html/plaintext content so that it can be used when sending email rather than needing to re-serialize the post content which may have changed
- split post email serializer into separate serialization and replacement parsing functions
- serialization now returns any email content that is derived from the post content (subject/html/plaintext) rather than post content plus replacements
- `parseReplacements` has been split out so that it can be run against email content rather than a post, this allows mega and the email preview service to work with the stored email content
- move mailgun-specific functionality into the mailgun provider
- previously mailgun-specific behaviour was spread across the post email serializer, mega, and bulk-email service
- the per-batch `send` functionality was moved from the `bulk-email` service to the mailgun provider and updated to take email content, recipient info, and replacement info so that all mailgun-specific headers and replacement formatting can be handled in one place
- exposes the `BATCH_SIZE` constant because batch sizes are limited to what the provider allows
- `bulk-email` service split into three methods
- `send` responsible for taking email content and recipients, parsing replacement info from the email content and using that to collate a recipient data object, and finally coordinating the send via the mailgun provider. Usable directly for use-cases such as test emails
- `processEmail` takes an email ID, loads it and coordinates sending related batches concurrently
- `processEmailBatch` takes an email_batch ID, loads it along with associated email_recipient records and passes the data through to the `send` function, updating the batch status as it's processed
- `processEmail` and `processEmailBatch` take IDs rather than objects ready for future use by job-queues, it's best to keep job parameters as minimal as possible
- refactored `mega` service
- modified `getEmailData` to collate email content (from/reply-to/subject/html/plaintext) rather than being responsible for dealing with replacements and mailgun-specific replacement formats
- used for generating email content before storing in the email table, and when sending test emails
- from/reply-to calculation moved out of the post-email-serializer into mega and extracted into separate functions used by `getEmailData`
- `sendTestEmail` updated to generate `EmailRecipient`-like objects for each email address so that appropriate data can be supplied to the updated `bulk-email.send` method
- `sendEmailJob` updated to create `email_batches` and associated `email_recipients` records then hand over processing to the `bulk-email` service
- member row fetching extracted into a separate function and used by `createEmailBatches`
- moved updating of email status from `mega` to the `bulk-email` service, keeps concept of Successful/FailedBatch internal to the `bulk-email` service
no issue
- adds a `members:emailTemplate` config object
- `showSiteHeader` - defaults to `true`, shows the site title and icon in member emails
- `showPoweredBy` - defaults to `false`, adds a "Publish with Ghost" button to member email footer
- updates member newsletter email template with hideable site header and "powered by" badge
closes https://github.com/TryGhost/Ghost/issues/12139
- once the email content has been rendered in the post serializer, perform some whole-content transformation of `figure` and `figcaption` to `div` using cheerio
- juiced will have already inlined the elements styles so there's no need to adjust the template's stylesheet
closes#12078
- Root cause was that pseudo class .kg-bookmark-author:after was not getting inlined to email newsletter or its preview.
- That is where the margin and bullet-point content are added between author and publisher.
- Dependency juice supports an option inlinePseudoElements which is false by default.
- Fix was to set inlinePseudoElements to true when serializing post email.

no issue
- we output the post excerpt in a hidden div in the email template so that email clients pick it up as the "preview" text when listing emails
- when no custom excerpt is provided the preview text is grabbed from post.excerpt which is the first 500 chars of the post.plaintext value
- post.plaintext formats links as "Link [http://url/]" which is unwanted in html email previews
- add a basic replacement to the post email serializer to remove any `[http://url/]` occurrences from the post excerpt before rendering the email content
refs https://github.com/TryGhost/Ghost/issues/11536
- Outlook supports `'` as a special char for apostrophes but not `&#apos;` which is what cheerio/juiced render
- adds a basic string placement to the email serializer to switch to the older style of special char

- Renames to match referenced migration renames
- Fixed API responses so they are consistent with newly renamed fields
- Not returning lang and timezone keys from settings in API v2 ther rest should be returned in API v3/canary

- this was originally reported in the PR above, but we could not
reproduce it on master
- presumably the user had the latest version of moment installed for
other purposes and so they were seeing the issue
- between moment 2.24.0 and 2.26.0, something must have changed which
stopped the previous functionality working
closes https://github.com/TryGhost/Ghost/issues/11659
- default `moment()` timezone is UTC and we store the `published_at` value in UTC
- fetch the configured timezone and convert the date into that timezone before formatting for inclusion in the email template
no issue
- fixed plaintext templates being word wrapped and breaking across replacement strings
- updated `postEmailSerializer.serialize` to return the email template plus a replacements array that can be used for creating Mailgun-like recipient variable objects or more straight forward replacement
- updated email-preview API to work with the replacements data to show fallback data when previewing
no issue
- adjusted mega's post serializer to get full email contents
- fetch `mobiledoc` from the API rather than the pre-rendered `html` and `plaintext`
- re-generate `html` using the mobiledoc renderer with an "email" target so that the email-only card content is included
- re-generate `plaintext` from the newly generated email html
- added replacement handling to mega's `getEmailData` function
- find all of our `%%{replacement "fallback"}%%` instances in the html template and push them into a replacements array with the respective property on the member instance and desired fallback
- transform the replacement for Mailgun compatibility. Mailgun uses `%recipient.variable_name%` for its template variables so we need to replace our custom replacement string with the compatible version. Our replacements system allows for the same replacement (`{subscriber_name}`) to be used multiple times and have different fallbacks, Mailgun doesn't support fallbacks so for each replacement we also need an indexed `variable_name` part so that we can put our fallbacks in the correct place
- perform the same Mailgun template transformation for the plaintext version except we re-use the replacements array to avoid bloating the API request to Mailgun with duplicate template variables for every recipient
- swapped `reduce` for a plain loop for easier readability
no issue
Email template was incorrectly setting up publication icon url in case of subdirectory setup, leading to missing publication logo from newsletter emails in such cases. This adds the fix to use correct absolute url for publication icons in all setups.
