* FileStorage: lockless reads and atomic writesVika2022-05-011-220/+157
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - Reads don't lock anymore. At all. - Writes create a temporary file and use `rename(2)` to atomically replace it - since OpenOptions::create_new(true) is used, tempfile creation is atomic (and since tempfile names are per-post, a post can only be edited by one request at a time) - Since written files get atomically replaced, readers can't read a corrupted file Potential pitfalls: 1. This approach is not covered by unit tests (yet) 2. Stale tempfiles can prevent editing posts (can be solved by throwing out tempfiles that are older than, say, a day) 3. Crashed edits can leave stale tempfiles (honestly that sounds better than corrupting the whole database, doesn't sound like a bug to me at all!)

* WIP: convert to Tokio and WarpVika2022-02-151-26/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | Warp allows requests to be applied as "filters", allowing to flexibly split up logic and have it work in a functional style, similar to pipes. Tokio is just an alternative runtime. I thought that maybe switching runtimes and refactoring the code might allow me to fish out that pesky bug with the whole application hanging after a certain amount of requests...
* FileBackend: introduce timeouts on operationsVika2021-12-311-34/+51
| | | | | | This is to prevent spinning in a loop waiting for a lock. This hangs often, though I suspect this should have been fixed in the previous commit.
* FileBackend: don't transfer locks over async boundariesVika2021-12-311-169/+188
| | | | | | | This may or may not be the cause for the app hanging while waiting for a lock. Now the operations with locks are never performed over an async boundary, excluding any shenanigans that can happen when accidentally leaving a file locked over async boundaries.
* Make rustfmt and clippy happyVika2021-12-061-11/+13

* Added support for IndieAuth client sign inVika2021-12-061-1/+1
| | | | | | | This will allow readers to view private posts intended just for them. Additionally fixed bugs in patterns due to which webmentions might not have been sent.
* Code cleanup and small bugfixing in templatesVika2021-12-051-49/+102

* Deprecated Redis backend and added a database migration tool (untested, beware)Vika2021-10-271-1/+1

* Code cleanup and Cargo.lock updatesVika2021-09-271-2/+3

* Fix a bug in the error middlewareVika2021-09-271-0/+1
| | | | | | When an error is found, the site name passed to Storage::get_setting in the error handler is incorrect. The ASCII serialisation of the hostname should get used.
* Implemented support for channelsVika2021-09-271-3/+114

* Implemented FileStorage::delete_postVika2021-09-271-1/+4

* Finally figured out how to read without a BufReaderVika2021-09-271-14/+6
| | | | | BufReader was really unneccesary here, since I was batch-reading all of this in one go.
* Improved symlink creationVika2021-09-271-5/+78
| | | | | | Now symlink creation works on Windows and creates links relative to the posts, allowing for seamless migrations of the backing directory for true portability and no data lock-in.
* Implemented FileStorage::get_setting and FileStorage::set_settingVika2021-09-271-2/+53
|
* Added file updates and fixed a bug with truncated JSON filesVika2021-09-261-3/+100
| | | | | | | | | | | There was a bug where `File::write()` would not write the entire buffer, and this condition was left unchecked by the code. All `File::write()` calls are now replaced with `File::write_all()` which ensures the whole buffer is written to the backing file. Additionally added a smoke check for the file updates. It is in no way comprehensive nor it is able to catch all the possible failures but it's a good way of testing the functionality without way too much hassle.
* Added a WIP file backendVika2021-08-151-0/+173
Currently unavailable for use and only has basic GET and POST operations implemented. A lot more work is needed to make it truly usable. Locking is implemented using flock() system call on Linux.
