We're using version 13 because it's the one included in Debian Bullseye,
which is the operating system we currently use in our Dockerfile.
For consistency, we're using the same version in GitHub Actions.
Note this image requires setting a password. Otherwise we get an error:
> Database is uninitialized and superuser password is not specified.
> You must specify POSTGRES_PASSWORD to a non-empty value for the
> superuser. For example, "-e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=password" on
> "docker run".
Since now we're setting a password in the postgres service, we also need
to provide the `PGPASSWORD` environment variable (or to specify the
password in the `database.yml` file, which we do for GitLab since it
uses a separate database configuration file). Otherwise we get an error:
```
PG::ConnectionBad: connection to server at "::1", port 5432 failed:
fe_sendauth: no password supplied (PG::ConnectionBad)
```
The asset compilation was failing because it needs the packages that are
installed with `npm clean-install`.
We're now installing the Node packages after installing the gems, like
we do in Github Actions. For this, we need to install the `npm` package.
As usual, we're updating the bundler version in our Gemfile.lock so it
uses the one included in Ruby 3.2.3, and we're also updating the
`parser` gem so it supports this version.
Note that, even if we're excluding the `node_modules/` folder from
version control, we aren't adding it to Capistrano's shared folders
because, when `node_modules` is a symbolic link, NPM removes it when
running `npm install`.
Note we updated the `mail` gem in commit 103742847, which is necesary
for Ruby 3.1 because it adds the net-smtp dependency. The net-smtp
library was removed from Ruby in Ruby 3.1, and if we don't include it,
we get an error:
```
cannot load such file -- net/smtp (LoadError)
```
We're also updating the Bundler version in the Gemfile.lock so it's the
one included in Ruby 3.1. Without updating it, we get a warning:
```
Calling `DidYouMean::SPELL_CHECKERS.merge!(error_name => spell_checker)'
has been deprecated. Please call `DidYouMean.correct_error(error_nam e,
spell_checker)' instead.
```
Finally, in order to make Capistrano work, we need to add a couple more
changes:
* Make the net-ssh gem compatible with SSL 3.0; done in commit b2eec088b
* Explicitly allow aliases in the `deploy-secrets.yml` file because
Psych 4.x (included in Ruby 3.1) doesn't load aliases without this
option
Coveralls stopped working back in July when we reached build number 3790
because back when we used Travis we created builds from numbers 3791 to
35700.
After trying to change the numbers in several ways, all of them
resulting in a "No build matching CI build number" message, we're trying
the Github Action provided by Coveralls instead. In order to make it
work, we need to add the `simplecov-lcov` gem and generate the report at
`coverage/lcov.info`. Note that, for some reason, `simplecov-lcov`
doesn't seem to depend on `simplecov` and we need `simplecov` 0.18 or
later, so we're manually adding this dependency as well.
