I noticed a thing with like, an asset that I think referenced an item that
doesn't exist, which caused an error in the `body_specific?` validation
step?
Tbh that validation step needs fixed up in a number of ways, but I'm
scared to, since it's hard to know what will break modeling lol.
But in any case, more graceful handling is nice! If something happens,
I'd rather leave it null and try again later than have the job crash!
It's not just that none of them were 200 OK, it's that they were all 404.
In the event that something returns not-200 and not-404, we immediately
abort, so we shouldn't get to this case unless they were all 404!
Okay, I've simplified the migration to *just* add the column, and
instead added a task to find assets without manifest URLs and backfill
them.
Performance is a lot better now, using the `async-http` library, which
as I understand it supports both persistent connections when invoked
like this, and maybe also HTTP/2 multiplexing?? (Though I'm not
actually sure images.neopets.com does lol)
I'm not sure about the number of concurrent tasks I picked here, 100
seems okay for an internet thing and for such small requests, but I
worry that the CDN is gonna get annoyed or something. Well, we'll see!
This task is very resumable if it turns out we get frozen out or
something.
Okay, right, if we're just using www.neopets.com (like we are for now), it fails on http://www.neopets.com because it triggers a redirect that we don't follow.
So here I 1) change the default to HTTPS, and 2) add HTTPS support to our little RocketAMF lib
This removes login/logout/session logic for integrating with OpenNeo ID, replacing them with stubs that just redirect to `/?TODO` when you click login, and helpers that act as if you're not logged in.
This gives us a clean slate to plug in new Devise logic to integrate with the `openneo_id` database directly!
Some tricks required here to get the dependencies to work out, but we got it!!
Oh also, we move away from the rbenv in Ubuntu's package manager, because it doesn't support more recent Rubies like 2.4.10.
I don't think these work anymore, and our volunteers get new items into the db fast anyway, Impress 2020 is doing better spidering these days. And then we get to remove the cron job `whenever` gem!
Yay, we've deleted all our background tasks!
We'll probably want to replace some of the basic functionality like certain caching? But we can deal with that as we run into it.
The direct motivation here was a seeming version conflict between Rails 4.2's rack dependency and latest Resque's rack dependency... but this is just nice complexity elimination regardless, we want this anyway :3
NOTE: This doesn't boot yet! There's something changed in the `devise` API that we'll need to fix!
```
/vagrant/config/initializers/devise.rb:46:in `block in <top (required)>': undefined method `encryptor=' for Devise:Module (NoMethodError)
```
But yeah, we navigated the gem upgrades, and also I ran `rake rails:update` and hand-processed the suggestions it had for our config files.
Looks like I forgot to update the RemoteGateway code to consider
that RocketAMF now returns strings. Like in the Pet code, I opted
to dump it into a HashWithIndifferentAccess rather than assume
that we'll forever use strings and it'll never get switched back
to symbols.
includes allowing null on some item fields, and putting the swf_assets
type and id index in an actual migration, or this commit would have removed
it upon migrating
