Somewhat predictably, the JS interface handled IDs as numbers, which in
JS are IEEE double-precision floats. This loses some precision when
working with numbers as large as those generated by the new ID scheme,
so we instead handle them here as strings. This is relatively simple,
and doesn't appear to have caused any problems, but should definitely
be tested more thoroughly than the built-in tests. Several days of use
appear to support this working properly.
BREAKING CHANGE:
The major(!) change here is that IDs are now returned as strings by the
REST endpoints, rather than as integers. In practice, relatively few
changes were required to make the existing JS UI work with this change,
but it will likely hit API clients pretty hard: it's an entirely
different type to consume. (The one API client I tested, Tusky, handles
this with no problems, however.)
Twitter ran into this issue when introducing Snowflake IDs, and decided
to instead introduce an `id_str` field in JSON responses. I have opted
to *not* do that, and instead force all IDs to 64-bit integers
represented by strings in one go. (I believe Twitter exacerbated their
problem by rolling out the changes three times: once for statuses, once
for DMs, and once for user IDs, as well as by leaving an integer ID
value in JSON. As they said, "If you’re using the `id` field with JSON
in a Javascript-related language, there is a very high likelihood that
the integers will be silently munged by Javascript interpreters. In most
cases, this will result in behavior such as being unable to load or
delete a specific direct message, because the ID you're sending to the
API is different than the actual identifier associated with the
message." [1]) However, given that this is a significant change for API
users, alternatives or a transition time may be appropriate.

* Make PreviewCard records reuseable between statuses
**Warning!** Migration truncates preview_cards tablec
* Allow a wider thumbnail for link preview, display it in horizontal layout (#4648)
* Delete preview cards files before truncating
* Rename old table instead of truncating it
* Add mastodon:maintenance:remove_deprecated_preview_cards
* Ignore deprecated_preview_cards in schema definition
* Fix null behaviour
Each of mute, favourite, reblog has been updated to:
- Have a separate controller with just a create and destroy action
- Preserve historical route names to not break the API
- Mild refactoring to break up long methods
* Add specs for api statuses routes
* Update favourited_by and reblogged_by api routes
* Move methods into new controllers
* Use load_accounts methods to simplify index actions
* Clean up load_accounts methods
* Clean up link header generation
* Check for link headers in specs
* Remove unused actions from api/v1/statuses controller
* Remove specs for moved actions
* Move ApiController to Api/BaseController
* API controllers inherit from Api::BaseController
* Add coverage for various error cases in api/base controller
* Redirect to streaming_api_base_url
When Rails receives a request to streaming API, it most likely
means that there is another host which is configured to respond
to it. This is to redirect clients to that host if
`STREAMING_API_BASE_URL` is set as another host.
* Use the new Ruby 1.9 hash syntax
This will reduce requests on who have only few statuses.
- Use next link header to detect more items from first request
- Omit next link header if result items are fewer than requested count
(It had omit it only if result was empty before)
Link headers in following/followers API should include follow_id as max_id/since_id.
However, these API use current_user's account_id instead of follow_id from #3167.
This causes irrelevant result on loading more users.
- Increase coverage to exercise all parts of each action
- Move into namespace to share common code
- Misc refactor of each action for smaller methods, simpler code
* Add buttons to block and unblock domain
* Relationship API now returns "domain_blocking" status for accounts,
rename "block entire domain" to "hide entire domain", fix unblocking domain,
do not block notifications from domain-blocked-but-followed people, do
not send Salmons to domain blocked users
* Add test
* Personal domain blocks shouldn't affect Salmon after all, since in this
direction of communication the control is very thin when it comes to
public stuff. Best stay consistent and not affect federation in this way
* Ignore followers and follow request from domain blocked folks,
ensure account domain blocks are not created for empty domain,
and avoid duplicates in validation
* Purge followers when blocking domain (without soft-blocks, since they
are useless here)
* Add tests, fix local timeline being empty when having any domain blocks
* Add <ostatus:conversation /> tag to Atom input/output
Only uses ref attribute (not href) because href would be
the alternate link that's always included also.
Creates new conversation for every non-reply status. Carries
over conversation for every reply. Keeps remote URIs verbatim,
generates local URIs on the fly like the rest of them.
* Conversation muting - prevents notifications that reference a conversation
(including replies, favourites, reblogs) from being created. API endpoints
/api/v1/statuses/:id/mute and /api/v1/statuses/:id/unmute
Currently no way to tell when a status/conversation is muted, so the web UI
only has a "disable notifications" button, doesn't work as a toggle
* Display "Dismiss notifications" on all statuses in notifications column, not just own
* Add "muted" as a boolean attribute on statuses JSON
For now always false on contained reblogs, since it's only relevant for
statuses returned from the notifications endpoint, which are not nested
Remove "Disable notifications" from detailed status view, since it's
only relevant in the notifications column
* Up max class length
* Remove pending test for conversation mute
* Add tests, clean up
* Rename to "mute conversation" and "unmute conversation"
* Raise validation error when trying to mute/unmute status without conversation
* Adding account domain blocks that filter notifications and public timelines
* Add tests for domain blocks in notifications, public timelines
Filter reblogs of blocked domains from home
* Add API for listing and creating account domain blocks
* API for creating/deleting domain blocks, tests for Status#ancestors
and Status#descendants, filter domain blocks from them
* Filter domains in streaming API
* Update account_domain_block_spec.rb
* Add <ostatus:conversation /> tag to Atom input/output

the alternate link that's always included also.

* Raise validation error when trying to mute/unmute status without conversation
duplicates. Web UI regenerates UUID for that header every time the compose
form is changed or successfully submitted
