- Now that i18n.t has been removed everywhere, we can cleanup the final usages
- Still TODO: merge the i18n logic into themeI18n, and get rid of shared/i18n entirely
no issue
Boot-time metrics are really valuable for understanding how releases affect the performance of Ghost. The new @tryghost/metrics package lets us ship these metrics to different sources using the same configuration framework as @tryghost/logging introduced.

- initializing the themes service before the custom theme settings service meant that `customThemeSettings.api` was not available when it's called as part of theme initialization
- swapped the boot order around so that the supporting service initialization is performed before the full themes service is initialized
refs https://github.com/TryGhost/Team/issues/1104
- bumped `@tryghost/custom-theme-settings-service` so it throws a more appropriate `ValidationError` when setting keys don't exist or a select value is not known
- changed the custom theme settings service to have a `.init()` method which creates an instance of the service under `.api` so that we're able to create the instance at a particular point in the boot process when we know the models have been initialised
- there were problems in tests because the service was being initialised through the require chain before models were initialised through the boot process
- fixed incorrect `camelCase` of resource name in API responses

This updates the Members & Offers modules to provide support for using
Offers in Stripe Checkout.
Members module now needs a handle to the Offers module repository, and
as such we have had to reorder the services boot order.
refs https://github.com/TryGhost/Team/issues/1083
This adds the Offers service which will allow us to build out an Admin
API to communicate with it. As well as wiring up the redirects to the
site app.
- The helper registration code is "framework" code and very specific
- At the moment the "theme engine" is full of lots of disparate theme related stuff
- I'm trying to make the frontend framework code clearer and also expand it to make it more useful
- The helper system now also exposes 3 methods allowing you to register a directory, a helper or an alias
- I've updated the codebase to use these both for our core helpers and for "apps"
refs https://github.com/TryGhost/Team/issues/1083
The Offers service is going to need access to the StripeAPIService too,
so we need to move it out of the @tryghost/members-api module and make
it accessible to both.
refs https://linear.app/tryghost/issue/CORE-35/refactor-route-and-redirect-settings
- There's no reason for the boot to block the event by loading route settings sychronously
- The only leftover use of a sync loader might also be refactored in some way to avoid blocking the event loo - for example by caching the value on the service layer.
refs https://linear.app/tryghost/issue/CORE-35/refactor-route-and-redirect-settings
- Frontend is not meant to know about the underlying source of the "routes" configuration, so any reads/edits/validations are being moved into a backend service. This should also simplify the coupling of the backend with the frontend where the latter will get a JSON blob with all needed configuration during the boot
- Nother problem the "get" method had was hiding an underlying function it was doing - reading the file from the filesystem SYNCRONOUSLY. 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).
- Having just one type of file to deal with allows to simplify implementation significantly, which helps before a big refactor
refs 16728a3ef1
- Same reason as in refed commit, ltdc:
- 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
- This stops the mounting of the admin and frontend from being buried deep in express initialisation
- Instead it's explicit, which makes two things almost possible:
1. we can potentially boot the frontend or backend independently
2. we can pass services and settings loaded during boot into the frontend
- This needs more work, but we can start to group all the frontend code together
- Meanwhile we also need to rip apart the routing and url services to decouple the frontend from the backend fully
- BABY STEPS!
- The router bootstrap is no longer allowed to fetch it's own settings, but rather is passed them
- This moves the call to the site routes.js file, which isn't much better but it's a start
- The goal is to always pass these in from the boot process, or from the bridge reloader
- this was skipped on boot, but then called in the test utilities, but only on restart 🙈
- this means that yarn test:acceptance (i.e. running all tests) works, but if you try to run just test/api-acceptance/themes_spec.js it would fail because that uses a fresh boot not a restart/reload
- I've changed this as keeping the test using the real boot, rather than the made-up acceptance-utils tasks as much as possible is way better
- 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
- 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
- config now exposes a few helpful methods: getSubdir, getSiteUrl, and getAdminUrl
- we can use these directly, instead of needing url-utils
- switching this inside of the boot process allows us to move the loading of url-utils into `initCore` which happens after the server has started and the database is ready
- this moves 100ms of loading time to later in the process
- also simplifies the initial loading
- Cleaned up some of the comments
- Added proper method signatures where appropriate
- Split initDynamicRouting out from initServices, to make that clearer to read

- As per comment on the top of boot.js:
// IMPORTANT: The only global requires here should be overrides + debug so we can monitor timings with DEBUG=ghost:boot* node ghost
- Referenced change broke the rule above and would have caused all sorts of boot problems.
refs https://github.com/TryGhost/Team/issues/754
- This is a minor cleanup. There should be no logic in the boot.js file other than calling services to "initialize themselves"
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.

- Webhook listener was still kicking in when the limit for "customIntegrations" was in place. This is due to parallel initialization that was done previously and sometimes limit service initialized before webhooks but sometimes it didn't!
- Moving it to be initialized before any othe service ensures the race conditon doesnt happen anymore
- Note: added a forced error to show that this was previously happening at the wrong time
- i18n is required by ghost-server to log server start messages, and so gets initialised as part of the ghost-server load
- moving this into the right place means we can see how long it takes in the debug logs
- previously the debug log lines for i18n showed 0/1ms, which is not correct as this contains a sync file load operation!
- we should consider if we want to have i18n be a requirement for ghost server, or if we want static messages
- We only require a single value from urlUtils, the url for the site
- Move that logic back to the boot file makes it much more explict
- Will help if we want to refactor how urlUtils works, or when we want to move ghost-server out of core
refs 829e8ed010
- 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

- continuing the work of splitting up the theme service into logical components
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
- 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
- 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 :)

- We have default API versions littered all over the codebase. When we updated to Ghost v4 we realised just how many and how much of a pain in the ass this is to manage.
- This creates a config value we can use. It's in overrides for the time being because we usually default to that until there is a usecase for it being overridable. If there is one, cool, change it!
- The main motivation for adding this now and only using it in boot and urlUtils is as part of work to decouple the theme service into logical compontents, because the engines system inside of themes has its own default, and this is one cause of tight coupling
- Expectation is that we'll slowly roll out use of the new default, hopefully without requiring config in any additional places (e.g. passing the version in from the boot file)
refs: https://github.com/TryGhost/Team/issues/558
- we can't use our logging lib to log a config error, because logging requires config to work
- we have to use console, as there's nothing else available at this point
- we can't even use notify to tell CLI a bad thing happened here, because that also requires config and logging
- there is no precedent or ref material for the code 999
- it's just meant to be a clearly different code to -1/1/2/3 we've used elsewhere
- it signifies that things went so wrong we weren't even able to handle the error gracefully with logging
refs: https://github.com/TryGhost/Team/issues/510
- added and wired up the new limit service, which is a lazy-loaded service
- this handles the case that there are host limits set in config, and wraps all the logic needed for detecting exceeded limits & throwing limit errors
- expects limits to be set in config under `host_settings.limits`
- supported limits are managed in the limit service, outside of core
refs https://github.com/TryGhost/Team/issues/513
- The bump does not effect scheduled post as URL with authentication token is generated during runtime for DefaultScheduler.
- This needs to be checked for SchedulerAdapter implementations which use persistant storage
- Continuing cleanup and clarification of the boot process
- By locating requires and inits more closely together its easier to see what happens where and to get timings
- Improved consistency of the debug begin/end statements
- Added "Step" comments to the main process
- Inlined the mountGhost function, for readability and consistency with the other steps
- There is now one true way to start Ghost - you create a server, and then call start with an express app
- We may well expand this again to improve testing pathways in future, but it will be done with a bit more clarity about expectations
