- Wired up the forntend to include and serve the minified css and js card assets if they exist
- This is a very naive implementation - ideally we wouldn't have to inject this in multiple places
- This allows us to add files to src/cards and have them included in themes
- The system is currently disabled due to an override in the theme config setting assets to false
- 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

- Media files uploaded through the Admin Media API should be accessible throught the frontend under `/content/media/`
- Note the feature is behind an alpha "mediaAPI" flag that has to be enabled in the labs first
- 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

Since we have a DynamicRedirectManager for handling adding/removing
redirects at runtime, we no longer need the custom-redirects middleware.
The redirects service does however need an init method now to add the
custom redirects at Ghost boot, so it's been refactored into our Class &
DI pattern.

- We allow to send email-only posts when using v4 Admin API, but it's possible to configure a v3 Theme with a site instance which resulta in an unsupported behavior throwing a 500.
- With this fix a 404 will be returned when an email-only post is viewed through the public email-only post URL
- 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!
- The files in the public folder are all specific to the frontend:
- ghost.css / ghost.min.css contains styles for default templates like unsubscribe, private and error
- favicon is the default for the frontend
- robots.txt is the default robots.txt for the frontend
- sitemap.xsl is the stylesheet for the sitemap
- Therefore, they should live in the frontend!
- 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
refs https://github.com/TryGhost/Ghost/issues/13380
- 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

- 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

- Email-only is not considered a general availability feature and can be used without special flags.
- It allows to publish a new post type "email only" that only goes out as an email newletter and is available through an undescoverable URL (does not appear anywhere publicly similarly to preview posts) on the site.

- I missed that the amp_content helper was meant to be async when refactoring
- I have updated our proper amp acceptance tests to catch the content not rendering as this is a regression, this should definitely have been caught
- Added missing async property to amp_content helper to fix the issue
- 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"

- description field in Admin is being moved to an area which has a live preview so we want to be able to pass this through as a preview param
- uses `d` rather than `description` to follow the shorter param names pattern
refs https://github.com/TryGhost/Team/issues/1097
- added `customThemeSettingKeys` as an argument to `preview.handle()` because we can't know which keys should be allowed through up-front
- added `custom` as a supported setting in the preview header data
- `custom` should be a JSON object containing any custom theme settings
- we parse the object but only set properties on `@custom` that are known custom theme setting keys
- if parsing fails or it's not an object then no custom data is set
- updated `updateLocalTemplateOptions()` to pull `.custom` off of the preview data and pass it through so it's accessible on `@custom` as an override to the saved custom data
refs https://github.com/TryGhost/Team/issues/1097
globalTemplateOptions are supposed to be static with localTemplateOptions being merged in per-request, however the per-request preview data was being extracted and set in the global options. Comments suggest that the global data should be static and eventually updated via other means, the usage of the request object to get per-request preview data is working against that.
- adjusted the preview handler to return an object rather than changing properties by reference on a passed in object
- moved preview data fetching out of `getSiteData()` used in `updateGlobalTemplateOptions()` and into `updateLocalTemplateOptions()` so that we're not relying on the request object in `updateGlobalTemplateOptions()`
- The original intention of the proxy was to collect up all the requires in our helpers into one place
- This has since been expanded and used in more places, in more ways
- In hindsight there are now multiple different types of requires in the proxy:
- One: true frontend rendering framework requires (stuff from deep inside theme-engine)
- Two: data manipulation/sdk stuff, belongs to the frontend, ways to process API data
- Three: actual core stuff from Ghost, that we wish wasn't here / needs to be passed in a controlled way
- This commit pulls out One into a new rendering service, so at least that stuff is managed independently
- This draws the lines clearly between what's internal to the frontend and what isn't
- It also highlights that the theme-engine needs to be divided up / refactored so that we don't have these deep requires
- The frontend proxy is meant to be a way to pass critical internal pieces of Ghost core into the frontend
- These fundamental @tryghost packages are shared and can be required directly, hence there's no need to pass them via the proxy
- Reducing the surface area of the proxy reduces the proxies API
- This makes it easier to see what's left in terms of decoupling the frontend, and what will always need to be passed (e.g. api)
Note on @tryghost/social-urls:
- this is a small utility that helps create URLs for social profiles, it's a util for working with data on the frontend aka part of the sdk
- I think there should be many of these small helpers and we'll probably want to bundle them for the frontend at some point
- for now, I'm leaving these as part of the proxy, as need to figure out where they belong
- i18n is an old pattern we are getting rid of in favour of tpl
- after removing i18n from helpers, there wasn't many usages of i18n left in the frontend, this removes whats left!
- this was done on a branch at the same time as Naz's commits removing i18n from the settings-related files
- hence some of these changes are minor amends to add additional messages/change names, rather than just straightup i18n->tpl
- it's a merge of both our refactors :)
