New feature to copy a pad without copying entire history. This is useful to perform a low CPU intensive operation while still copying current pad state.
Before, a malicious user could bypass authorization restrictions
imposed by the authorize hook:
* Step 1: Fetch any resource that the malicious user is authorized to
access (e.g., static content).
* Step 2: Use the signed express_sid cookie generated in step 1 to
create a socket.io connection.
* Step 3: Perform the CLIENT_READY handshake for the desired pad.
* Step 4: Profit!
Now the authorization decision made by the authorize hook is
propagated to SecurityManager so that it can approve or reject
socket.io messages as appropriate.
This also sets up future support for per-user read-only and
modify-only (no create) authorization levels.
Authentication plugins almost always want to read and modify
`settings.users`. The settings can already be accessed in a few other
ways, but this is much more convenient.
It's not much, but these images will hopefully be downloaded many times. The
smaller they are, the lowest the latency will be.
Command:
optipng {etherpad_basic.png,etherpad_full_features.png}
BEFORE:
$ du -sch *.png
16K etherpad_basic.png
104K etherpad_full_features.png
120K total
AFTER:
$ du -sch *.png
12K etherpad_basic.png
92K etherpad_full_features.png
104K total
In this way, we also gain an explicit place for the default setting (still not
filled in).
No functional changes.
This is in preparation of a future commit by Paul Tiedke.
The mechanism used for determining if the application is being served over SSL
is wrapped by the "express-session" library for "express_sid", and manual for
the "language" cookie, but it's very similar in both cases.
The "secure" flag is set if one of these is true:
1. we are directly serving Etherpad over SSL using the native nodejs
functionality, via the "ssl" options in settings.json
2. Etherpad is being served in plaintext by nodejs, but we are using a reverse
proxy for terminating the SSL for us;
In this case, the user has to be instructed to properly set trustProxy: true
in settings.json, and the information wheter the application is over SSL or
not will be extracted from the X-Forwarded-Proto HTTP header.
Please note that this will not be compatible with applications being served over
http and https at the same time.
The change on webaccess.js amends 009b61b338, which did not work when the SSL
termination was performed by a reverse proxy.
Reference for automatic "express_sid" configuration:
https://github.com/expressjs/session/blob/v1.17.0/README.md#cookiesecureCloses#3561.
With this change, the Dockerfile builds the Docker image from the code
checked out in the local filesystem, instead of downloading a revision
from git.
Implements #3657
Do not touch vendorized files (e.g. libraries that were imported from external
projects).
No functional changes.
Command:
find . -name '*.<EXTENSION>' -type f -print0 | xargs -0 sed -i 's/[[:space:]]*$//'
Next version will be Etherpad 1.8. As planned in #3424, we are going to require
NodeJS >=8.9.0 and npm >= 6.4.
This commit implements that change and updates documentation and scripts.
Subsequent changes will get rid of old idioms, dating back to node < 0.7, that
still survive in the code.
Once migrated to NodeJS 8, we will be able to start working on migrating the
code base from callbacks to async/await, greatly simplifying legibility (see
#3540).
Closes#3557
The .tex source was updated to fix some typos, but the corresponding pdf was not
regenerated.

The documentation was written on 2011-08-03:
31067f163f: added a documentation for the database structure
The implementation using sha512 instead of bcrypt was committed two days later,
on 2011-08-10:
ce1012438e: added setPublicStatus, getPublicStatus, setPassword and isPasswordProtected
This commit implements the following behaviour:
1. adds a function clientPluginNames() to hooks.js (mimicking what is done in
static.js), which returns an array containing the list of currently installed
client side plugins. The array is eventually empty.
2. calls that function in pad.html at rendering time (thus server-side) to
populate a class attribute.
Example results:
- with no client-side plugins installed:
<div id="editorcontainerbox" class="">
- with some client-side plugins installed:
<div id="editorcontainerbox" class="ep_author_neat ep_adminpads">
Looking at the existing code (src/node/hooks/express/static.js#L39-L57), a
client-side plugin is defined as a plugin that implements at least a client side
hook.
NOTE: there is currently no support for notifying plugin removal/installation
to the connected clients: for now, in order to get an updated class list,
the clients will have to refresh the page.
Fixes#3488
