- 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
- So as a result, we now have core/frontend/public and content/public
- This is a minor bugbare, but it will affect some configuration I'm about to do for c8
- I've been wanting to do it for ages, middleware is plural all on it's own so it's an odd affectation in our codebase
- This also only exists in 2 places, everywhere else we use "middleware"
- Sadly it did result in a lot of churn as I did a full find and replace, but consistency is king!

- There's no longer "getValue" method passed around in UrlService, so the were unnecessary and did a wrong thing here :) Yey, less code!

- This is an effor t to define a precise set of data needed for the UrlGenerator to function, which should help with decoupling it from the frontend routes
- This is almost the last piece to free us up from the massive "router" object that has been passed around

- 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
- 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
- This will be useful for the card asset service, where the cards.min.css and cards.min.js files may or may not exist
- Requires the new @tryghost/minifier package
- Adds a new service that will handle taking config from the theme and optionally including assets for Koenig editor cards
- It supports both css and js as cards may need one or both
- For any given config, the tool can find the matching files to include and concat and minify them into one file per type
- Currently has an override in place so that this is not yet customisable in the theme - will remove this override when we're ready for the feature

- The assets were broken in Admin when the frontend and admin urls were different
- Fixed the issue by changing the `asset` helper to output absolute URLs when the frontend/admin urls are differents

This allows users to create Offers for Tier/Cadence pairs in order to
provide discounted subscriptions to Members! We have support for
percentage based discounts & fixed price discounts, either for the first
payment, all payments, or a number of monthly payments.
Offers also have a code, which can be used as an easy way to share them,
as visiting https://site.com/offer-code will automatically open Portal
with the Offer prepopulated.
- we're slowly trying to draw the lines between the backend and the frontend correctly
- these files deal only with serving the frontend so they should live there
- there are lots of mixed requires in these files, so having them in the right place makes that clear
refs https://linear.app/tryghost/issue/CORE-104/decouple-frontend-routing-events-from-urlserver-events
- The "bootstrap" didn't give enough credit to everything this module was doing - it's responsible for managing correct initialization and reinitialization of the frontend Routes as well as passing router creation information back to the frontend's URL service
- The refactor is done in two steps - the "bootstrap.js" will be renamed in the follow-up commit to have a clean history of how the file evolved
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!
- core/shared/i18n is no longer used. Remove it to prevent temptation!
- this class needs merging with the one in themes, but for now just co-locate them as that's quicker and easier

- The match helper allows for basic equals and not equals comparisons,
Example:
{{match title "=" "Getting Started"}}
{{match slug "!=" "welcome"}}
- There's a lot more functionality we want to add here, so that it ends up being a replacement for {{#has}}
- However, this first iteration is already useful, especially in the context of custom theme settings
- Therefore we are adding it early, and will document it along with custom theme settings when that goes GA very soon

- 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
refs https://linear.app/tryghost/issue/CORE-103/decouple-internal-frontend-code-from-url-module
- We need to decouple all frontend services from URL service as much as possible. "bootstrap" module is now a central point to substitute (proxy really) function previously done by the URL service and this move changes direct usage of URL service to "bootstraps" internal proxy function
refs https://linear.app/tryghost/issue/CORE-103/decouple-internal-frontend-code-from-url-module
- By becoming a parameter in the routing bootstrap process URL is Service no longer a "require" inside the frontend controllers but rather becomes a part of the "internal API" of the bootstrapper. This is not the end form of it, rather a step closer to decouplint routing from the URL serivce.
- The bootstrap module needs a facelift to have cleaner distinction between init/start methods. This is left for another time
- this is a small part of a bit of cleanup of our test files
- the goal is to make the existing tests clearer with a view to making it easier to write more tests
- this makes the test structure follow the codebase structure more closely
- eventually we will colocate the frontend tests with the frontend code
