The code is now more event-driven when it comes to rendering notices
and their related HTML elements, since we can't have direct calls from
core to a plugin.
lib/activitymover.php has a function to move a Favorite activity which
will not happen now. The move must be pluginified and performed as an
event which plugins can catch on to.
The File object now stores width and height of files that can
supply this kind of information. Formats which we can not read
natively in PHP do not currently benefit from this. However an
event hook will be introduced later.
The CreateFileImageThumbnail event is renamed to:
CreateFileImageThumbnailSource to clarify that the hooks should not
generate their own thumbnails but only the source image. Also it now
accepts File objects, not MediaFile objects.
The thumbnail generation is documented in the source code. For
developers, call 'getThumbnail' on a File object and hope for the best.
Default thumbnail sizes have increased to be more appealing.
The exception thrown from MediaFile will be caught and simply result in
no thumbnail at all right now. In the future we might use a catch-all
and have a "cannot generate preview"-icon or something.
VideoThumbnails requires php5-ffmpeg and php5-gd.
Many of the microapps are pretty javascript dependant, but at least
we should allow users to get to the new notice field without allowing
javascript to run in the browser. :)
Generally the Cron plugin will run if there's still execution time for
1 second since starting the Action processing. If you want to change
this (such as disabling, 0 seconds, or maybe running bigger chunks,
for like 4 seconds) you can do this, where 'n' is time in seconds.
addPlugin('Cron', array('secs_per_action', n));
Add 'rel_to_pageload'=>false to the array if you want to run the queue
for a certain amount of seconds _despite_ maybe already having run that
long in the previous parts of Action processing.
Perhaps you want to run the cron script remotely, using a machine capable
of background processing (or locally, to avoid running daemon processes),
simply do an HTTP GET request to the route /main/cron of your GNU social.
Setting secs_per_action to 0 in the plugin config will imply that you run
all your queue handling by calling /main/cron (which runs as long as it can).
/main/cron will output "0" if it has finished processing, "1" if it should
be called again to complete processing (because it ran out of time due to
PHP's max_execution_time INI setting).
The Cron plugin also runs events as close to hourly, daily and weekly
as you get, based on the opportunistic method of running whenever a user
visits the site. This means of course that the cron events should be as
fast as possible, not only to avoid delaying page load for users but
also to minimize the risk of running into PHP's max_execution_time. One
suggestion is to only use the events to add new queue items for later processing.
These events are called CronHourly, CronDaily, CronWeekly - however there
is no guarantee that all events will execute, so some kind of failsafe,
transaction-ish method must be implemented in the future.
New plugins:
* LRDD
LRDD implements client-side RFC6415 and RFC7033 resource descriptor
discovery procedures. I.e. LRDD, host-meta and WebFinger stuff.
OStatus and OpenID now depend on the LRDD plugin (XML_XRD).
* WebFinger
This plugin implements the server-side of RFC6415 and RFC7033. Note:
WebFinger technically doesn't handle XRD, but we serve both that and
JRD (JSON Resource Descriptor), depending on Accept header and one
ugly hack to check for old StatusNet installations.
WebFinger depends on LRDD.
We might make this even prettier by using Net_WebFinger, but it is not
currently RFC7033 compliant (no /.well-known/webfinger resource GETs).
Disabling the WebFinger plugin would effectively render your site non-
federated (which might be desired on a private site).
Disabling the LRDD plugin would make your site unable to do modern web
URI lookups (making life just a little bit harder).
getUser calls are much more strict, and one place where this was found was
in the (un)subscribe start/end event handlers, which resulted in making the
Subscription class a bit stricter, regarding ::start and ::cancel at least.
Several minor fixes in many files were made due to this.
This does NOT touch the Foreign_link function, which should also have a more
strict getUser call. That is a future project.

Show list of other accounts in profile block
We add a group of "rel-me" links to other user accounts on the Web.
This is mostly useful for when you've used OpenID, Twitter, or
Facebook login to associate a remote account.
There's an extension to the profileblock recipe to show the links as
little icons; there's a new hook in accountprofileblock to get such
links from plugins.
There's a modification to the base theme to show the icons correctly
(I think).
Rather than enumerating available classes, define an event that sets a
flag indicating that there's an IM plugin available. Implemented in
implugin.php, so all IM plugins that use that class should
work. Others can hook the event, too.
