I noticed `pip uninstall -y tutor` will not uninstall the plugins, so I made this PR. I know it's ugly, but I don't find any other way of doing it. Let me know if there are better choices 😊
- [Security] Apply logout redirect url security fix. (by @regisb)
- [Feature] Make it possible to force the rendering of a given template, even when the template path matches an ignore pattern. (by @regisb)
- 💥[Fix] Get rid of the `tutor config render` command, which is useless now that themes can be implemented as plugins. (by @regisb)

When rendering theme files in a plugin, the *.scss files are stored in a
"partials" subdirectory, which was ignored by the environment rendering logic.
To render these files, we move the path ignoring logic to a filter, which is a
list of regular expressions. Values in this filter can be overridden by another
filter.

- [Fix] Truncate site display name to 50 characters with a warning, fixing data too long error for long site names. (by @navinkarkera)
- [Feature] Add patch to allow overriding final openedx docker image CMD.
- [Fix] Ignore Python plugins that cannot be loaded. (by @regisb)
- [Improvement] Faster and more reliable builds with `npm clean-install` instead of `npm install`. (by @regisb. Thanks @ghassanmas!)
- [Fix] Fix 500 error during studio login. (by @regisb)
- [Fix] Fix updates for the Caddy deployment in multi-node Kubernetes clusters (#660). Previously, Caddy configuration updates might fail if the Kubernetes cluster had more than one worker node. (by @fghaas)
When running multiple concurrent versions of a plugin there are sometimes
version conflicts that prevent the plugin from being loaded. Prior to v1, Tutor
was correctly ignoring plugins that could not be loaded. During the transition
to v1 we lost that feature because we only captured TutorErrors.
Now that Tutor is the official community installation for Open edX, it no
longer makes sense to host a forum that is separate from the general Open edX
forum. Moving conversations there will encourage cross-communication between
projects and maintainers. This change is part of a larger overhaul described in
this Tutor enhancement proposal (TEP):
https://discuss.overhang.io/t/tep-rethinking-the-tutor-maintainers-program/2724
In the future, plugin maintainers should point their users to the Open edX
forum as well. They are encouraged to create dedicated "tutor-pluginnname" tags
on the forum and to set their notification level to "watching".
The default user in the mysql container is 'mysql',
so the `mysql` command tries to use the 'mysql' MySQL user by default.
But, in the MySQL dump instructions,
we are providing the MySQL root user's password, so we need
to specify `MYSQL_ROOT_USERNAME` as the MySQL user when invoking `mysql`.
When a Pod associated with a Deployment is updated (for example, due
to a change to its ConfigMap, or an updated image reference),
Kubernetes uses a ReplicaSet to spin up a Pod with the new
configuration, and once it is up, it tears down the old one.
In case of the Caddy Deployment, this is complicated by the fact that
it uses a Persistent Volume Claim (PVC), whose corresponding volume
uses a Read/Write-Once (RWO) configuration. This means that it can
only be used by multiple Pods if all those Pods all run on the same
Kubernetes worker node.
In order to enable rolling upgrades for the Caddy Deployment, we need
to ensure that its replacement Pod is scheduled on the same node as
the original Pod.
Thus, add a pod affinity rule that will force exactly that behavior.
Reference:
https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/scheduling-eviction/assign-pod-node/
The other Tutor services that use volumes (MySQL, Redis, Elasticsearch
and MongoDB) do not need this fix, since they all use the "Recreate"
deployment strategy: their Pods are all automatically torn down before
being replaced. This strategy is not needed for Caddy, and using a pod
affinity rule is less disruptive to the learner experience.
Commit 514e3fce22 made it so
that dev containers were to load mounts from
env/dev/docker-compose.tmp.yml. However, it did not update
the code to generates the docker-compose.tmp.yml files.
This manifested as mounts simply not working in dev mode.
Additionally, we make the docker-compose.jobs.tmp.yml files
follow the same local vs dev differentiation that
was introduced in 514e3fce22.
With this change, we want to better highlight the contributions of
developers to Tutor. We want to publicly acknowledge the positive impact
that individuals and companies have on the development of the platform.
to that end, each changelog entry can now be suffixed with the name of
the author (individual or company) who authored the change. These names
will find their way to the release notes for every release. Eventually,
we also want to spread these release notes more widely. For instance, we
could post new releases to the forum to notify the community of
important changes.
If you have contributed to Tutor in the past, feel free to open a PR and
append your name to the changes that you made. We will not be able to
update the release notes for every release out there, but your
contributions will be acknowledged from the changelog.
When mounting a directory in a dev-only container, such as the
"learning" mfe, docker-compose is failing because it is attempting to
run "docker-compose stop" in the local context -- which knows nothing
about the learning container.
To resolve this, we store tmp volumes either in the local or dev
docker-compose.yml, and load either one depending on the context.
