- Move SQL method constants into a module
- Removed unused count methods
- Moved methods that don't return a TopicList into Topic
- Replaced some confusing method signatures
instead implement an aggressive anonymous cache that is stored in redis
this cache is sitting in the front of the middleware stack enabled only in production
TODO: expire it more intelligently when stuff is created
- minor refactoring of actions 'category' and 'category_feed'
- fix defect in 'category' where check was for literal
string 'uncategorized' instead of SiteSetting.uncategorized_name
- major refactoring on defined topic actions
All models are now using ActiveModel::ForbiddenAttributesProtection, which shifts the responsibility for parameter whitelisting for mass-assignments from the model to the controller. attr_accessible has been disabled and removed as this functionality replaces that.
The require_parameters method in the ApplicationController has been removed in favor of strong_parameters' #require method.
It is important to note that there is still some refactoring required to get all parameters to pass through #require and #permit so that we can guarantee that parameter values are scalar. Currently strong_parameters, in most cases, is only being utilized to require parameters and to whitelist the few places that do mass-assignments.
We want to skip the filter for sessions controller so that we can login
and we want to skip the filter for static pages because those should be
visible to visitors.
under rack cache we are able to serve 620reqs a second per thin (on my machine) before it 12 (on my machine)
reorganised so mini profilers can be cleanly disabled from config file
added caching for categories index
move production.rb to production.sample.rb
