There were a few key problems I was looking to solve with this:
- Introduce a single point of truth for what the URL for accessing the API should be
- Provide a simple way to configure the utility (much like a true SDK)
As of this commit, this utility is still automatically available in a Ghost theme.
To use it on an external site, the code would look like:
```
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://my-ghost-blog.com/shared/ghost-url.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
ghost.init({
clientId: "<your-client-id>",
clientSecret: "<your-client-secret>"
});
</script>
```
To achieve this, there have been a number of changes:
- A new `apiUrl` function has been added to config, which calculates the correct URL. This needs to be unified with the other url generation functions as a separate piece of work.
- The serveSharedFile middleware has been updated, so that it can serve files from / or /shared and to substitute `{{api-url}}` as it does `{{blog-url}}`.
- ghost-url.js and ghost-url.min.js have been updated to be served via the serveSharedFile middleware
- ghost-url.js has been changed slightly, to take the url from an inline variable which is substituted the first time it is served
- `{{ghost_head}}` has been updated, removing the api url handling which is now in config/url.js and removing the configuration of the utility in favour of calling `init()` after the script is required
- `{{ghost_head}}` has also had the meta tags for client id and secret removed
- tests have been updated
no issue
- provide a single point for accessing config in unit tests
- create a single way to set and restore config
- ensure that restore deletes top level optional keys that are now undefined
- use this._config in check deprecations, otherwise the config gets cached
- solves issues with interdependent tests
no issue
- If client credentials are missing, or not valid, output a clear message in the server console
- Still defaults to sending the 'access denied to url' error to the frontend
no issue
- Cache the permalinks & postsPerPage settings on the config.theme object
- Use the config.theme cache to reference these items throughout the frontend of a blog
- Removes the need for workarounds and extra code to handle async fetches
- Makes these values accessible to all themes, which is very useful now we have the API stuff
closes#6150
- clean up ghost.url.api script
- switch to inlining config and making the ghost-url.js file an external request
- add minification in production
closes#5850
- filters were added so that apps could change the output of the helpers, but as async helpers are a hack, this led to issues
- apps aren't currently a working part of Ghost, so for now, lets remove the filters
- we'll add these back when we have a better implementation of async helpers & this style of app is back on the cards
refs #5091, #6166
- fetch channel config via an internal function
- prevents channel config from being statically cached at runtime
- means that labs & other settings can be used to change these values
- pass debug: true to the API to get some useful debug output
- does not work in production mode
Note: I have added these lines back in so many times in the past month or so so that I could
figure out what was happening, I figured everyone else might find them useful.
TODO: use a proper logging method dependent on env
refs #5614, #5943
- adds a new 'filter' bookshelf plugin which extends the model
- the filter plugin provides handling for merging/combining various filters (enforced, defaults and custom/user-provided)
- the filter plugin also handles the calls to gql
- post processing is also moved to the plugin, to be further refactored/removed in future
- adds tests showing how filter could be abused prior to this commit
refs #5614
- change isPublicContext to detectPublicContext
- behaviour now expands the context object out
- this is a bit of a sideeffect, but this is the simplest change
that makes it possible to use the context in the model layer without
significant wider changes
- add new access rules plugin
- takes a context object as part of `forge()` & caches it on the model instance
- provides helper functions for testing access rules later on
refs #5942
- refactor ghost_head to use Promise.props (settle is going away and this is easier)
- add a new call to fetch the frontend client, if it exists
- add meta tags for the client_id and client_secret on all pages
- don't include the meta tags if the client is not enabled, or if the labs flag is not set
issue #5976
- break out the labs check into a utility
- wrap the get helper in a labs check, so it only works if the checkbox is checked
- make the get helper output an error to both the server and browser console if used when not enabled
no issue
- switching from using fetch to fetch all means some code can be removed from the fetchPage method
- updating tests to reflect cleaner code
- ensure coverage is at 100%
no issue
- added comments to pipeline util, inc where it came from
- added tests for pipeline util
- tests uncovered a bug with promises for args, which has been fixed
refs #5940, #5923
- make read-directory ignore invalid package.json files
- display a warning about invalid package.json files on startup
- add tests to ensure read-directory continues, even with invalid package.json files
refs #5602
- add "order" to default browse options
- parse order parameter in Base model
- accept "order" option in Post, User and Tag models
- add tests for posts order
- add tests for tags order
- add tests for users order
refs #5943
- removed featured, tag and author parameters from posts API
- featured was only used in tests
- removed role filter from users API
- role was only used in tests
- fixed up the tests, skipping those that don't quite work yet
refs #5943, #5091
- split out channel config
- use config.theme instead of api calls to grab title & desc
- wrap rss call in a function which sets channel config for RSS feeds
- change rss `getData` function to use the new multiple-query-handling fetchData functionality
- make sure channelConfig is set in all tests
refs #5943, #5091
- updated fetch-data to handle multiple api queries
- using named keys for queries so that the names of items in the result are correct (tag instead of tags etc)
- updated channel configs in frontend controller
- removed old filter code from frontend controller
- added test coverage for fetch-data and format-response
- fixes / removes tests which are broken by the refactor
