Client-side translations are stored in "djangojs.js" files. Supposedly,
these files were properly compiled prior to the Ironwood release -- but
this is not the case, so we need to re-generate them.
Also, we need to re-generate the djangojs.js files for the custom,
downloaded locales. The assets collection settings are also fixed to
take into account the separate locale folder.
This step needs to happen prior to static assets collection, as the
djangojs files are collected to the staticfiles/ folder.

tls renewal and generation was failing in cron jobs because of "The
input device is not a TTY" errors. This is because the "-it" docker
option does not work when a tty is not available.

When running "bundle exec rake search:initialize" in the forum, we were
getting the following error:
/openedx/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/2.4.0/rubygems/resolver.rb:235:in `search_for': Unable to resolve dependency: user requested 'did_you_mean (= 1.1.0)' (Gem::UnsatisfiableDependencyError)
It happens this error suddently happened because rubygems-update was not
pinned to a specific version. v3.0.4 was working and v3.1.2 was not.
As it happens, we don't need rubygems-update, so we simply get rid of it
entirely.
To do so, we had to create a new log_format.
Plugin developers are strongly encouraged to start using this log format
by adding the `access_log /var/log/nginx/access.log tutor;` directive to
their extra nginx configurations.
In order to load this log format early, the `tutor.conf` config file had
to be renamed to something early in the alphabet... (hence starting by
an underscore) Older users would face an error on nginx reload, so older
"tutor.conf" files are automatically removed on config save.
Previously, a common error when restarting e.g: the lms or the cms was
that nginx redirected to the wrong container. For instance:
access studio.localhost
tutor local restart lms cms
access studio.localhost
In the second call to studio.localhost, we were frequently trying to
access the LMS, which resulted in a 400 error.
We solve this issue by setting a TTL of 10s on the nginx proxy name
resolution.

The management plugin exposes an http API that makes it possible to
monitor rabbitmq. By default, we do not expose the management dashboard.
As a consequence, the API is only usable by other internal containers.
- [Improvement] Switch edx-platform from open-release/ironwood.2 tag to
the open-release/ironwood.master branch
- [Security] Upgrade django to 1.11.28
- [Improvement] Make it possible to configure the elasticsearch heap
size
- [Bugfix] Fix broken elasticsearch environment variables
- [Improvement] Restore more recent Android app version (#289).
There are too many patches on top of ironwood.2, and it's not practical
to pull them all one by one. We still want to build on top of a specific
version, and not a branch, so we use a dirty hack to guarantee that the
docker image is properly rebuilt by CI when we change it.
Because we are running a version of elasticsearch older than Methusalem,
the docker environment variables were not properly taken into account.
For instance, the cluster name and "mlockall" settings were incorrect,
as we could see by running:
$ tutor local run lms curl elasticsearch:9200 | grep cluster_name
...
"cluster_name" : "elasticsearch",
$ tutor local run lms curl elasticsearch:9200/_nodes/process?pretty | grep mlock
...
"mlockall" : false
See
https://discuss.overhang.io/t/elastic-container-is-not-being-removed/312/3
for discussion.
This fix also introduces a new tutor configuration setting to adjust the
elasticsearch heap size.
A prior change used the ironwood.1 tag to build the Android app in an
attempt to solve #289. Turns out that this change was unnecessary. So
here we revert to a more recent release of the Android app. Instead of
building from the master branch (which might create suprises) we build
from a fixed release tag.
The source repo and version are customisable via build arguments.
This is for supporting json-based plugins. The great thing about this
change is that it allows us to easily print plugin version numbers in
`plugins list`.
- [Bugfix] Fix oauth authentication in dev mode
- [Improvement] Upgrade to the 3.7 docker-compose syntax
- [Improvement] The `dev runserver` command can now be run for just any
service
- 💥[Feature] `dev run/exec` commands now support generic options which
are passed to docker-compose. Consequently, defining the
`TUTOR_EDX_PLATFORM_PATH` environment variable no longer works. Instead,
users are encouraged to explicitely pass the `-v` option, define a
command alias or create a `docker-compose.override.yml` file.
By de-duplicating the code between dev.py and local.py, we are able to
support more docker-compose run/up/stop options passed from tutor. To do
so, we had to disable some features, such as automatically mounting the
edx-platform repo when the TUTOR_EDX_PLATFORM_PATH environment variable
was defined.
- [Improvement] Make it possible to override the project name in development mode
- [Bugfix] Fix user switching in development mode
- [Bugfix] Fix "k8s quickstart" crash
"Course visibility In Catalog" advanced CMS setting was being ignored
because the default the COURSE_CATALOG_VISIBILITY_PERMISSION and
COURSE_ABOUT_VISIBILITY_PERMISSION settings were incorrectly set to the
legacy default, which "see_exists".

It makes more sense to document this command instead of adding it to the
`local` commands. If need be, in the future we should be able to re-add
it as a plugin.
This command adds a burden on the `local` and `k8s` command. It does not
make sense to provide this command out of the box, and not other
administration commands. Instead, we should better document how to run
regular `manage.py` commands from tutor.
Close #269.
- [Improvement] Add `k8s-deployments-nginx-volume-mounts` patch
- [Bugfix] Fix running forum locally when both elasticsearch and mongodb
are not activated (#266)
- [Bugfix] Fix MongoDb url in forum when running separate service (#267)
- 💥[Improvement] Better `dev` commands, with dedicated development
docker image. One of the consequences is that the `dev watchthemes`
command is replaced by `dev run lms watchthemes`.
- [Improvement] `images` commands now accept multiple `image` arguments
MONGOHQ_URL was not properly set when MONGODB_HOST/PORT was customised.
That's because the environment variable was being defined in the
Dockerfile, and not at runtime.
Close #267
The `dev` commands now rely on a different openedx-dev docker image.
This gives us multiple improvements:
- no more chown in base image
- faster chown in development
- mounted requirements volume in development
- fix static assets issues
- bundled ipdb/vim/... packages, which are convenient for development
Close #235

- [Feature] Introduce `local hook` command for plugin development.

(#247)
- [Improvement] Added configuration values to limit the number of
gunicorn workers for the LMS and CMS.
- 💥[Improvement] Get rid of mysql-client container
- [Improvement] Add "local-docker-compose-lms/cms-dependencies" plugin
patches
- [Improvement] Use "exec" instead of "run" to initialise local platform
This has an impact on plugin hooks. Plugin hooks that needed to run
inside mysql-client now need to run inside mysql container. This
simplifies the deployment, as we no longer have an empty mysql-client
container sitting around.
When mysql is not enabled (ACTIVATE_MYSQL=False) the mysql container is
simply a mysql client.
We ran into an issue when trying to run migrations when the MinIO plugin
is activated. As seen in issues #243 and #244, the
certificates.0003_data__default_modes migration requires access to
MinIO. To do so, the MinIO host must be reached. That means that SSL
certificates must be in place (if https is enabled) and that the nginx
server must be booted. However, it does not make sense to require that
the minio container depends on the nginx container. So, in effect, we
need a fully working platform to run migrations.
In a sense, this is better as it harmonises the init task with k8s: in
k8s, init was already run with exec.
Next step is to get rid of these ugly mysql-client/minio-client
containers that must be up at all times. It would be much simpler to
just exec the commands inside the mysql/minio containers.
All existing plugins are added to the binary bundle, in their latest
version, so that users don't need to pip install tutor.
Also, the tutor MANIFEST.in file was removed to simplify the management
of package data.
Close #242.
