v.2.28 "Porkkalankatu"

[Macroz]

NB: This release contains migrations!
NB: One of the migrations fixes organizations, that could be broken by previous features.

Additions

• Application UI view is now visually more compact for non-handler users. State and members blocks are collapsed initially, and can be expanded to show more details. (Applicant's view of application is complicated #2871)
• The packaged fonts are now only in WOFF and WOFF2 formats, as is required for extensive support these days. (Refactor font definitions: add missing formats of currently available font files and add fallback to available system fonts #2592)
• Various improvements should improve performance:
  • Gzip compression has been enabled for the server, so it is more feasible to use REMS as a standalone server without a reverse-proxy / load-balancer.
  • Logo images are preloaded automatically as they are almost always required.
  • Initial data is injected to the initial HTML instead of separate requests afterwards. (Unify injecting/loading mandatory data #2958)
  • Some dependencies have been dropped resulting in a smaller bundle.
• Default metadata for the HTML index has been added under description and keywords tags. These can be overridden using extra translations (:t.meta/description, :t.meta/keywords) (We could serve meta tags from translations for better SEO #2679)
• Default robots.txt has been included that indexes everything but the /api. NB: the bots are not able to index most pages as they are behind the login. (Serve a default robots.txt #2680)
• HTTP/2 (and others) can be configured, see :jetty-extra-params in config-defaults.edn.
• Validate organization when adding or editing it. (Add a migration to remove possible old values in organization table #2964)
• Consecutive save events are compacted into one. This does not affect old save events. This is turned off by default, until the whole autosave feature is finished. (Autosave in the background #2767)
• Application licenses are now rendered alphabetically in UI and PDF render. (Sort the licenses by the name to have a more stable order. #2979)
• Custom stylesheets can now be added using :extra-stylesheets configuration option. This can be used to include custom fonts, for example. Example stylesheet is included in config-defaults.edn and is located in example-theme/extra-styles.css. (Extra styles #2869)
• Example custom stylesheet example-theme/extra-styles.css is included in Docker images built using Dockerfile and docker-compose-config.yml, so that default REMS fonts are automatically included when running REMS for the first time, for example. (Extra styles #2869)

Fixes

• Add missing migration to remove organization modifier and last modified from the data. (Add a migration to remove possible old values in organization table #2964)
• Read-only checkbox should look different from editable checkbox yet again. (Readonly checkbox background is incorrectly rendered #2974)
• Applicant member details now always have border in application user interface, even when there are no other members. (Add border in member details when application has only one applicant #2975)
• Version number is shown again in browser console instead of message "Version information not available". This was due to change in build logic introduced by Shadow-CLJS. (Fix version numbering not showing #2984)
