Laravel 11 exposes MariaDB as a dedicated 'mariadb' driver, so
config('database.default') === 'mysql' checks silently misclassified
MariaDB as the non-mysql (postgres) branch.
- Add App\Util\Database\DatabaseDriver with isMysqlLike()/isPgsql()
plus db_is_mysql_like()/db_is_pgsql() global helpers.
- Route all database.default driver checks through the helpers so
MySQL and MariaDB are treated as one group.
- Use '' (not null) for share/compose caption+rendered, valid whether
the column is nullable or NOT NULL (it is NOT NULL on MySQL/MariaDB).
- Guard pgsql strtolower() in registration against missing fields.
- Scope CustomEmoji::duplicateShortcodes to the grouped column for
Postgres GROUP BY validity.
- Remove stale Postgres guard in status:dedup; use havingRaw for
cross-driver HAVING.
users.storage_used only ever grew: uploads incremented it but no deletion
path decremented it, so users hit the account size limit even when their
real media usage was well below it.
- Decrement storage_used in MediaDeletePipeline when media is removed
- Add UserStorageService::increaseStorageUsed / decrementStorageUsed as the
fast, symmetric hot-path counter updates (floor-based, clamped at zero)
- Refactor the 6 upload call sites to use increaseStorageUsed instead of
duplicated inline writes (also fixes ceil/floor drift vs the reconciler)
- Add (user_id, size) covering index so per-user SUM(size) is not a full
table scan (INPLACE/LOCK=NONE, skipped on sqlite)
- Add user:storage:recalculate command to repair affected accounts, with a
daily --stale=168 scheduled reconciler to correct any drift
- Add regression tests for the pipeline and UserStorageService
Pure rename of the App\Rules\PixelfedUsername validation rule to
App\Rules\ValidUsername for a clearer, more idiomatic name. Updates
the class, filename, test, and all 8 controller call sites. No
behavior change.
Replace 7 duplicated inline username validation closures across 6
controllers (ApiV1Dot1, RemoteAuth, CuratedRegister, AdminInvite x2,
AppRegister, Auth/Register) with the existing PixelfedUsername rule.
Add the 'must contain at least one alphabetical character' check to
the rule so all call sites share consistent, stricter validation.
Add PixelfedUsernameTest covering all validation branches.
Move all Eloquent models from the app/ root directory to app/Models/
for consistency with modern Laravel conventions. The project already had
54 models in App\Models; this migrates the remaining 52 legacy models.
Changes:
- Move 52 model files from app/ to app/Models/
- Update namespace declarations in each model
- Update all ~1000 import references across the codebase
- Add Relation::morphMap() in AppServiceProvider for backward
compatibility with existing polymorphic database records
- Add missing HasSnowflakePrimary imports for models that relied
on same-namespace resolution
Adds explicit return type declarations to 498 controller methods
across 88 files. Types inferred from return statements:
- JsonResponse for response()->json() returns
- RedirectResponse for redirect()/back() returns
- View (contract) for view() returns
- Response for response() returns
- void for methods with no return value
- array for array returns
- string/int/bool for scalar returns
Also fixes 3 methods with incorrect bare returns:
- AvatarController::deleteAvatar - bare return → json response
- ImportPostController::checkPermissions - bare return → true
- RemoteAuthController::accountToId - bare return → empty array
Convert all 273 short facade alias imports (e.g. 'use Cache;') to their
fully-qualified class names (e.g. 'use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Cache;')
across 193 files.
This resolves 643 PHPStan 'class.notFound' errors caused by the static
analyzer being unable to resolve global aliases, and aligns with modern
Laravel conventions. It also unblocks removing the aliases array from
config/app.php in a future change.
All 107 tests pass.
Replace all deprecated helper function calls:
- str_slug() → Str::slug()
- starts_with() → str_starts_with()
- ends_with() → str_ends_with()
- array_first() → Arr::first()
- array_last() → Arr::last()
- array_flatten() → Arr::flatten()
Remove laravel/helpers package from composer.json as it is no longer
needed and will not be maintained for Laravel 13.
PHP 5.5.9 adds the new static `class` property which provides the fully qualified class name. This is preferred over using strings for class names since the `class` property references are checked by PHP.
- Remove unmaintained jenssegers/agent package (no releases since 2021)
- Add matomo/device-detector v6.5 as actively maintained replacement
- Create App\Services\UserAgentService wrapper for drop-in compatibility
- Update UserDevice model and ApiV1Dot1Controller to use new service
