The Bing sitemap submission was removed in sitemap_generator 6.3.0 [1],
and Google has also deprecated the ping and we're getting an error when
deploying:
```
Ping failed for Google: #<OpenURI::HTTPError: 404 Sitemaps ping is
deprecated.
```
Since those were the only two search engines we were pinging in the
past, we're removing the code that did so.

There was only one different line between these two lines, and we really
want these two files to be as similar as possible, so testing on a
staging server we get the same results we'll get on production.
This duplication made it easy to forget to update the staging.rb file
when updating the production.rb, particularly when upgrading to a new
version of Rails, which automatically changes the production.rb file but
not the staging.rb one.
So, now that we're getting ready to upgrade to Rails 7.0, we're basing
the staging configuration on the production one, just like we based the
preproduction configuration on the staging one in commit 7b91adb16.
This is possible since audited 5.4.3, and IMHO it's useful because
audited has added a callback on touch, which could result in strange
behavior since we might use the `touch` method to expire the cache
without doing any changes.
While this doesn't affect our application because we're using the `on:`
option of the `audited` method in the budget investment model, it'll
make it easier to enable audited for other classes in custom
installations without having to worry about the (usually undesired)
touch callbacks.
We haven't updated this initializer for years, so here's the updated
version. The `expire_auth_token_on_timeout` doesn't seem to exist
anymore, and a few more options have been added.
Note that the default Devise initializer configures
`config.responder.error_status` and `config.responder.redirect_status`
so they follow Hotwire/Turbo conventions. For now, I'm commenting these
lines because we currently don't use Hotwire/Turbo.
While people using screen readers already have keyboard shortcuts to
jump to the <main> tag, there are people who navigate the page with the
keyboard using just the tab key, and for them, this link provides a way
to save time and start reading the main content instead of having to
manually go through all the navigation links every time a new page is
loaded.
Note that we had to add an additional `width: 0` rule because
Foundation's `element-invisible` would apply `1px` and the test checking
for `visible: :hidden` would faile.
We are ensuring that only position field is rendered only on
non-header cards.
Note that we have 3 sections that use widget cards:
- Homepage (cards and header cards)
- Custompages (only have cards)
- Sdg Homepage (cards and header cards)
We haven't been updating this file for a long time so, and this version
uses the `configure` method instead of the `config` hash.
We're also adding a few comments already included in previous versions
of wicked pdf that we hadn't copied to our initializer.
By default, when starting a Rails application, ExecJS checks whether there's
a runtime available in the system. Since on production we now use FNM to
manage node versions, this meant that we had to run Puma using the
`fnm exec bundle exec puma` command.
However, this causes issues when integrating Puma with Systemd. For instance,
when using `fnm exec`, the PID for the main process is no longer the Puma
process but the FNM process, meaning that stopping and restarting Puma will
no longer behave as expected and might last 90 seconds (Systemd's timeout to
stop a service). Furthermore, using a Puma Systemd socket in order to
implement hot or phased restarts won't work either, and so we'll get 502
errors while restarting the service.
So we're using the `EXECJS_RUNTIME=Disabled` environment variable in the
Systemd service, which means we can remove the `fnm exec` prefix in the
ExecStart command (which starts Puma) and now the PID for the main process
is the Puma process, stopping/restarting the service no longer times out,
and we'll be able to implement Puma socket activation and hot restarts.
However, removing `bundle` from the list of commands which use `fnm exec`
(the `fnm_map_bins`) meant that we got a `RuntimeUnavailable` exception when
running `bundle exec bin/delayed_job`. We tried to add `delayed_job` to the
`fnm_map_bins` variable but couldn't make it work.
Since we only need the ExecJs runtime when precompiling the assets but we
don't need it in order to start Puma or Delayed Job, we're adding
`{ EXECJS_RUNTIME: "Disabled" }` to Capistrano's default environment and
we're only using the default Runtime when `fnm exec` is used, which we've
done by setting the environment variable in the prefix of the fnm command.
This way, when running `EXECJS_RUNTIME='' fnm exec bundle exec rake assets:precompile`,
the right ExecJS Runtime will be loaded, but it won't be loaded (since it
isn't needed) when starting Puma or Delayed Job.
We moved the "Custom content blocks" menu entry from "Settings" to "Site
content" in commit a902f9e11, but we forgot to update a description
referencing the old location..
This will allow us to keep using the timezone used when running
the installer.
We keep using Madrid as default timezone in the installer and in
the application.
As Rails does with the application log and other tools. We
are going to use the same filtering rules we use in Consul Democracy.
We are renaming the initializer file name `filter_parameter_logging.rb` so
it's loaded before the errbit initializer.
As this secret is currently not programmed to be customisable for each Tenant,
we take it out of the security section. The reason is that so far everything inside this security section can be overwritten per tenant. With this change we are trying
to prevent anyone from trying to overwrite it on a per Tenant basis, as it would have
no effect.
Puma 4 is no longer maintained, and Puma 5 removed the option to run
Puma as as daemon. That means that, in order to upgrade, we need to rely
in a process monitoring tool. We're using systemd because it's installed
by default in most (all?) operating systems running Consul Democracy on
production and it's supported by both Puma and the capistrano3-puma gem.
Using systemd means Puma will be automatically started whenever it
crashes, so we no longer need the changes done in commit 40b3c9f2c and
we can now use the default tasks configuration in capistrano3-puma and
capistrano3-delayed-job.
Since Puma is also started automatically when booting the system, we
don't need a cron job to do so anymore and can remove it from the
`schedule.rb` file.
In order to the display a warn text on the last attempt
before the account is locked, we need update
config.paranoid to false as the devise documentation
explains.
Adding "config.paranoid: false" implies further changes
to the code, so for now we unncomment the default value
"config.last_attempt_warning = true" and update it to false.
As it seems that adding complexity to the password is something that
might be wanted from the Consul applications, we added the necessary
changes to allow it.
In this version we simply:
- Uncomment the configuration variable "password_complexity"
- Set this variable without any restrictions
- Adapt the application so that everything still works normally.
One of the things that had to be done to adapt the application
was to remove the overwriting of the "self.included" method.
The original idea of overwriting the "self.included" method seems
to be the possibility of being able to overwrite the
:current_equal_password_validation validation.
The problem comes from the fact that by only calling that validation,
the rest of the validations that are defined (in this case
"password_complexity") are no longer applied.
It seems like a good idea to remove the overwrite of the "self.included"
method to allow all the defined validations to be applied and simply
overwrite the :current_equal_password_validation method so that
everything behaves the same.
:allow_passwords_equal_to_email configuration has been enabled too,
in order to allow existing records with this configuration.
Another change made was to uncomment the line:
and to keep everything working the same set the value to false:
config.email_validation = false.
This change has had to be made because in the documentation of
devise-security it says the following:
In other words, if we want to use the :secure_validatable module
we have to enable this configuration even if its value is "false".
If we kept the configuration variable commented out:
The following error appears:
"uninitialized constant Devise::Models::SecureValidatable::EmailValidator".
So it has been verified that if before making any change we
decommented the line and added the value of "false", the application
worked as normal.
In these commits ffe9ac70d8def3 we updated the devise-security version.
In these versions the 'password_regex' configuration key and some comments
were changed.
We update this file in order to use the new configuration key 'password_complexity' and keep comments updated.
As mentioned in earlier commits, opening external links in a new
tab/window results in usability and accessibility issues.
Since these links are usually at the top or bottom of the page and
contain icons of well-known sites, IMHO there's no need to even notify
people that these are external links.
Since we're no longer using the `shared.target_blank` translation inside
a sentence, we can remove the space and parenthesis in the translations.
The previous version worked fine when using Capistrano to deploy a new
release, but it did not work for other commands, like `cap npm install`
or `cap puma:start`, as they do not create a release. Therefore, the
`git:create_release` was never called, and the `map_node_bins` was not
invoked.
Since we need node binaries available to the deploy user when executing
any process that runs the application, like puma, delayed_job, and rake
tasks, among others, it makes sense to load FNM to use the correct Node
version in the same places where Capistrano loads RVM to load the correct
Ruby version.
With dynamic loading of the `fnm_setup_command`, we get the correct path
when deploying a new release and also when running any other capistrano
command that does not deploy a new release.
We were using a "Download file" link in one place, while in another
place we had an additional column where the name of the document was a
link to download it.
In order to comply with the security measure for the
ENS: "[op.acc.5.r5.2] The user shall be informed of
the last access made with his identity".
We have added a new secret to display the last
access made to the user on the "My account" page.
Even if pretty much nobody uses a browser with JavaScript disabled when
navigating our sites, there might be times where JavaScript isn't loaded
for reasons like a slow internet connections not getting the JavaScript
files or a technical issue.
So we're making it possible to still use the like/unlike buttons in
these cases.
