Once this is getting hooked up, it'll periodically delete old
messages.
The StoragePolicy can be chosen by the user, currently there's
two versions, delete everything based on age is the obvious.
The other is for the data hoarders among us. It'll only delete
message types which can be considered low value... Types with
a time aspect like away / back... joins / parts etc.
It tries to do that in a sensible way, so that we don't block
all other db writers that are ongoing.
The "periodically" interval is by design not exposed to the user.
Currently the realname is set to an advertisement if it isn't explicitly
set by the user.
Some clients started to show the realname as a display name in their
UI, which makes this tedious as you'll end up with gazillion "The Lounge
User" entries.
To avoid this, set the realname to the nick on first connect, so that
it is useful.
Note that this isn't done on nick changes, but only on the initial
connect step.
Fixes: https://github.com/thelounge/thelounge/issues/4527
This change adds a `prefetchTimeout` setting to the default configuration and sets it to 5000 milliseconds. Its description indicates the advantages and disadvantages of changing its default value.
This is a comments only change that fixes two problems:
1. The previous comment described it as limiting request size, but it
instead limits the response size.
2. Previously it was unclear _why_ this size was significant. It wasn't
obvious to me that the entire response would be stored in memory.
YouTube puts the opengraph tags needed for the preview after ~300KB in the body
instead of the beginning of the <head> tag.
Instead of hardcoding the value, allow the server admin to set the policy as
they prefer.
Also draft some kind of plugin system for auth, although it essentially consists in writing a function
and there is no mechanism to automatically fallback from one auth to another
- Mark the option as deprecated (cannot be removed from the help, unfortunately)
- Add details to `lounge config` regarding `LOUNGE_HOME`
- Remove mention of `--home` in default config file
The Lounge first log as a special user in order to search (as in LDAP's
'"search" verb) for the user's full DN. It then attempts to bind using the
found user DN and the user provided password.
