Just like we did in commit 0214184b2d for investments, we're removing
some possible optimizations (we don't have any benchmarks proving they
affect performance at all) in order to simplify the code.
The investement votes component `delegate` code was accidentally left
but isn't used since commit 0214184b2, so we're removing it now that
we're removing the `voted_for?` helper method.
We were defining the same filters in three different controllers. We
were also adding a method in the ApplicationController which only made
sense in the same three controllers.
We were manually adding forgery protection to all our controllers, but
in Rails 5.2 there's an option (enabled by default for new applications)
which adds this protection to all controllers.
Sometimes we define URLs for POST requests which are not defined for GET
requests, such as "/residence", so redirecting to it after signing out
results in a routing error.
So instead of using the request referer, we're using the stored location
devise uses, and we're not storing locations in POST requests.
For reasons I'm not sure about, the homepage (and the welcome pages)
were an exception in our "redirect users to the same page they were"
policy.
I'm not sure about the welcome pages (no test was present indicating
they should behave in a special way), but in the case of the home page,
it was a bit annoying to be redirected to a different place after
signing in.
When signing in from a page containing GET params, like
`/budgets/1/investments?heading_id=4`, we were redirected to a URL
without those GET params; in this case, `/budgets/1/investments`.
Using the request fullpath, as recommended in the devise documentation,
keeps these parameters when redirecting.
We don't need to set this value. In commit f2ef27d3 I made a mistake
thinking `Globalize.locale` and `I18n.locale` should always be in sync,
but they're actually automatically in sync when `Globalize.locale` is
`nil`.
So the best way to avoid any issues is not to assign `Globalize.locale`,
and use `Globalize.with_locale` where necessary instead.
In theory it's possible to add a `host` parameter to a URL, and we could
end up redirecting to that host if we just redirect using query
parameters.
Generating the path using `url_for` with `only_path` solves the issue.
Note in the tests I'm using the `get` method because the `patch` method
wouldn't send query parameters. This doesn't mean the action can be
accessed through GET requests, since controller tests don't check route
verbs. Using feature specs doesn't seem to work because `controller` and
`host` parameters are filtered automatically in feature specs.
Also note I'm not testing every hidden/moderation controller because
they basically use the same code.
Our manual implementation had a few issues. In particular, it didn't
track changes related to associations, which became more of an issue
when we made investments translatable.
Using audited gives us more functionality while at the same time
simplifies our code. However, it adds one more external dependency to
our project.
The reason for choosing audited over paper trail is audited seems to
make it easier to handle associations.
We were monkey-patching FoundationRailsHelper::Formbuilder, which made
form customization difficult. We can inherit from it, which is the
standard way of extending what an existing class does, and make our form
the default one.
We were raising a `CanCan::AcessDenied` and were getting a 500 Internal
Server Error.
I've chosen to do the same thing we do in the ApplicationController.
There are other options to handle this request, like redirecting to the
login page or returning a 401 Unauthorized HTTP status.
New version of globalize uses RequestStore gem to store I18n.locale and
Globalize.fallbacks in a per request basis to avoid collissions between
different requests. This gem update broke Globalize.fallback results
because it tries to fetch fallbacks from RequestStore, where there is no
locale fallbacks definition.
We were filtering by winners investments for finished budget without
having in consideration other filters.
We want the default filter to be `winners` for finished budgets.
The test "Budget Investments Show milestones" was failing in certain
cases where `Globalize.locale` had been changed in a previous test.
Since having different values in `Globalize.locale` and `I18n.locale`
has proven to be an issue on the test enviroment, this commit also
changes application code in order to avoid similar situations on
production.
See issue #2718.
