This adds middleware that will create custom parameter metrics in
New Relic to track the size of all the cookies being received for
our domain. The custom fields are "cookies_total_size" and a
separate named parameter for every cookie size, e.g.
"cookies.csrftoken.size".
This is intended to help us track cookie growth and better diagnose
issues where users lose their sessions. It is toggled by the
'request_utils.capture_cookie_sizes' Waffle Flag.
Django 2.0 will make this field required for `ForeignKey` and `OneToOneFields`.
In previous versions the option defaulted to `models.CASCADE` when not
specified. This change should make the deprecation warnings in the current
Django version go away.
The migrations where also modified, but the changes should not cause a change in
the database schema since `models.CASCADE` was already the old default.
Pagination should be standard and easy to adopt so moved the paginators
into the edx_rest_framework_extensions package so they can be easily
installed into other app/projects
PSA was monolothic, now split, with new features, like
a DB-backed partial pipeline. FB OAuth2 version also upped.
Partial pipelines don't get cleared except when necessary.
They persist for special cases like change of browser while
still mid-pipeline (i.e. email validation step).
Refactor, cleanup, and update of a lot of small things as well.
PLEASE NOTE the new `social_auth_partial` table.
There are a number of Django Signals that are on the modulestore's
SignalHandler class, such as SignalHandler.course_published. These
signals can trigger very expensive processes to occur, such as course
overview or block structures generation. Most of the time, the test
author doesn't care about these side-effects.
This commit does a few things:
* Converts the signals on SignalHandler to be instances of a new
SwitchedSignal class, that allows signal sending to be disabled.
* Creates a SignalIsolationMixin helper similar in spirit to the
CacheIsolationMixin, and adds it to the ModuleStoreIsolationMixin
(and thus to ModuleStoreTestCase and SharedModuleStoreTestCase).
* Converts our various tests to use this new mechanism. In some cases,
this means adjusting query counts downwards because they no longer
have to account for publishing listener actions.
Modulestore generated signals are now muted by default during test runs.
Calls to send() them will result in no-ops. You can choose to enable
specific signals for a given subclass of ModuleStoreTestCase or
SharedModuleStoreTestCase by specifying an ENABLED_SIGNALS class
attribute, like the following example:
from xmodule.modulestore.tests.django_utils import ModuleStoreTestCase
class MyPublishTestCase(ModuleStoreTestCase):
ENABLED_SIGNALS = ['course_published', 'pre_publish']
You should take great care when disabling signals outside of a
ModuleStoreTestCase or SharedModuleStoreTestCase, since they can leak
out into other tests. Be sure to always clean up, and never disable
signals outside of testing. Because signals are essentially process
globals, it can have a lot of unpleasant side-effects if we start
mucking around with them during live requests.
Overall, this change has cut the total test execution time for
edx-platform by a bit over a third, though we still spend a lot in
pre-test setup during our test builds.
