Several scripts internally run bundler setup, so no explicit bundler
command is needed. For the others, start up using /usr/bin/bundle
(installed by ruby-bundler) to load the environment.
Move all Etherpad's access control from Meteor to a separated [Node application](https://github.com/bigbluebutton/bbb-pads).
This new app uses [Etherpad's API](https://etherpad.org/doc/v1.8.4/#index_overview)
to create groups and manage session tokens for users to access them. Each group
represents one distinct pad at the html5 client.
- Removed locked users' access to pads: replaced readOnly pad's access with a new pad's content sharing routine
- Pad's access is now controlled by [Etherpad's API](https://etherpad.org/doc/v1.8.4/#index_overview)
- Closed captions edited content now reflects at it's live feedback
- Improved closed caption's dictation mode live feedback
- Moved all Etherpad's API control from Meteor to a separated [app](https://github.com/bigbluebutton/bbb-pads)
- Included access control both in akka-apps and bbb-pads
I was going to resort to some trickery to make mediasoup raw files end up in the
same directory as KMS to reduce changes, but it ended up being too dirty.
I am adding a third directory (/var/mediasoup) to be tracked by the rap scripts
which is where the new raw files end up in.
Move the handling of chat events into the shared library so it can be
used by multiple recording formats.
The anonymization of names is based on the external user id, if
available, so users have a consistent name through the meeting. Note
that no effort is made to edit chat messages - if someone is mentioned
by name in a chat message, that will still be visible.
Default settings for anonymization can be controlled in
bigbluebutton.yml, and per-meeting overrides can be done using meta
parameters on the create call.
Previously, bbb-record --rebuild was restarting recording processing
from scratch by creating the .../recording/<meeting_id>.done file. This
causes the recording to be reprocessed starting at the archive step.
However, re-running the archive step for an existing meeting is not
really supported! Ever since the segmented recording code was added, it
shouldn't /corrupt/ the recording files, but it's still not good.
And as a side-effect, re-running the archive step will re-create the
.norecord file for meetings without recording marks, meaning that you
cannot use bbb-record --rebuild to force a recording without marks to be
processed.
Switch bbb-record to restart recording processing at the sanity stage to
match the BBB 2.2 behaviour. Rather than have it insert tasks directly
into resque via redis-cli, it goes through a ruby wrapper that performs
input validation and uses the resque apis.
Since Meteor was split in multiple process and events started to be
filtered by instances, all Etherpad's Redis events were being discarded.
Etherpad has a Redis' publisher plugin that is unaware of BigBlueButton's
existence. All the communication between them is kept simple with minimal
of internal data exchange. The concept of distincts subscribers at Meteor's
side broke part of this simplicity and, now, Etherpad has to know which
instance must receive it's messages. To provide such information I decided
to include Meteor's instance as part of the pad's id. Should look like:
- [instanceId]padId for the shared notes
- [instanceId]padId_cc_(locale) for the closed captions
With those changes the pad id generation made at the recording scripts had to
be re-done because there is no instance id available. Pad id is now recorded at
akka-apps and queried while archiving the shared notes.
When managing Etherpad's pads, Meteor makes API calls to initiate the closed captions
and shared notes modules. The pad id was being mapped to a shorter id than the meeting
id because of a Etherpad lenght limitation.
Changed to something less guessable.
The indexes returned in recording events from BBB refer to positions
within a UTF-16 encoded string. Rather than attempt to untangle this in
the server (which might have a performance cost), it's easier to switch
the caption processing code to operate in UTF-16 encoding as well to
make it work consistently.
The PyICU library provides a UnicodeString type which is a UTF-16 string
similar to Java and JavaScript, but which supports all the python
indexing methods. It's fairly straightforwards to swap it in in place of
the types used previously, and works natively as an input to the ICU
line break iterator too.
Fixes#10531
This commit fixes an issue with reading and writing files.
File.open is used which means that a file will remain open
unless explicilty closed or the program exit. This doesn't work
for an NFS mount as the scripts try to "rm -rf" when the file
is still open. This commit fixes that by replacing all .opens
with .reads
After the last segment of a recording has been archived, it is safe to
delete the original files that were recorded by the various media
handling components. This patch deletes the freeswitch audio files and
kurento webcam/screenshare files after they have been archived.
It needs to be used in combination with some changes to users/groups and
directory permissions to allow the `bigbluebutton` user to delete files
that it could previously only read.
I've moved the workers code into the `lib` subdirectory with other library-ish
code; this puts it into the ruby load path used by most scripts so referencing
files is easier.
I've applied various style cleanups based on the rubocop config present.
The `events` processing step has been integrated as a new worker `EventsWorker`,
there is no longer a separate `events/events.rb` script. I've reworked the
`rap-starter.rb` script to check for the done files in both the events and
recorded status directories.
Write a tool that generates the poll svg images directly from the
BBB poll description. This avoids the issues with special characters
in the gnuplot labels, and gives us a lot more flexibility in how
the polls are formatted and styled.
Changed only in the main class so journald is the default and in the
scripts related to the processes in resque. Internal scripts might still
be logging to files.
