Normally I would let `eslint --fix` do this for me, but there's a bug
that causes:
const x = function ()
{
// ...
};
to become:
const x = ()
=> {
// ...
};
which ESLint thinks is a syntax error. (It probably is; I don't know
enough about the automatic semicolon insertion rules to be confident.)
Where feasible I put the await at the end of the function to
minimize the impact on latency.
My motivation for this change: Eliminate a race condition in tests I
am writing.
There are two different ways an author ID becomes associated with a
user: either bound to a token or bound to a session ID. (The token and
session ID come from the `token` and `sessionID` cookies, or, in the
case of socket.io messages, from the `token` and `sessionID` message
properties.) When `settings.requireSession` is true or the user is
accessing a group pad, the session ID should be used. Otherwise the
token should be used.
Before this change, the `/p/:pad/import` handler was always using the
token, even when `settings.requireSession` was true. This caused the
following error because a different author ID was bound to the token
versus the session ID:
> Unable to import file into ${pad}. Author ${authorID} exists but he
> never contributed to this pad
This bug was reported in issue #4006. PR #4012 worked around the
problem by binding the same author ID to the token as well as the
session ID.
This change does the following:
* Modifies the import handler to use the session ID to obtain the
author ID (when appropriate).
* Expands the documentation for the SecurityManager checkAccess
function.
* Removes the workaround from PR #4012.
* Cleans up the `bin/createUserSession.js` test script.
This change is in preparation of the future async refactoring by Ray. It tries
to extract as many changes in boolean conditions as possible, in order to make
more evident identifying eventual logic bugs in the future work.
This proved already useful in at least one case.
BEWARE: this commit exposes an incoherency in the DB API, in which, depending
on the driver used, some functions can return null or undefined. This condition
will be externally fixed by the final commit in this series ("db/DB.js: prevent
DB layer from returning undefined"). Until that commit, the code base may have
some bugs.
This change is only cosmetic. Its aim is do make it easier to understand the
async changes that are going to be merged later on. It was extracted from the
original work from Ray Bellis.
To verify that nothing has changed, you can run the following command on each
file touched by this commit:
npm install uglify-es
diff --unified <(uglify-js --beautify bracketize <BEFORE.js>) <(uglify-js --beautify bracketize <AFTER.js>)
This is a complete script that does the same automatically (works from a
mercurial clone):
```bash
#!/usr/bin/env bash
set -eu
REVISION=<THIS_REVISION>
PARENT_REV=$(hg identify --rev "${REVISION}" --template '{p1rev}')
FILE_LIST=$(hg status --no-status --change ${REVISION})
UGLIFYJS="node_modules/uglify-es/bin/uglifyjs"
for FILE_NAME in ${FILE_LIST[@]}; do
echo "Checking ${FILE_NAME}"
diff --unified \
<("${UGLIFYJS}" --beautify bracketize <(hg cat --rev "${PARENT_REV}" "${FILE_NAME}")) \
<("${UGLIFYJS}" --beautify bracketize <(hg cat --rev "${REVISION}" "${FILE_NAME}"))
done
```
This is documented to be more performant.
The substitution was made on frontend code, too (i.e., the one in /static),
because Date.now() is supported since IE 9, and we are life supporting only
IE 11.
Commands:
find . -name *.js | xargs sed --in-place "s/new Date().getTime()/Date.now()/g"
find . -name *.js | xargs sed --in-place "s/(new Date()).getTime()/Date.now()/g"
Not done on jQuery.
Both functions did the same thing, the first function was buggy. Might be worth someone looking through the history of this file and pointing out when I made this heinous error ;)
