Redirect gutenberg.run

Currently gutenberg.run is hosted by a DigitalOcean instance that we’d like to shut down.

Can we please have that domain setup as a redirect to https://playground.wordpress.net/gutenberg.html?

Thanks in advance!

Add WordCamp.org Sandbox and/or Super Admin

I currently have a w.org sandbox, but not a wordcamp.org one (or WC added to mine; not sure how it’s setup). In talking with @dufresnesteven about issues with Jetpack on wordcamp.org, it would be helpful to be able to dig in a bit more directly.

Delete 6.6 git branches

Today r57779-core accidentally created branches/6.6 when the intention was to create branches/6.5, this has been cleaned up in develop.svn and core.svn, but that doesn’t sync through to develop.git & core.git.

Thankfully it appears that the git sync has continued to operate without issues.

Could the following branch please be deleted from the git mirrors?

$ git remote -v
origin  git://develop.git.wordpress.org/ (fetch)
$ git branch -r | grep 6.6
  origin/6.6

$ git remote -v
origin  git://core.git.wordpress.org/ (fetch)
$ git branch -r | grep 6.6
  origin/6.6

The branch on Github should automatically be removed when it’s removed from the source repo.

FYI @davidbaumwald

IPv6 Support

WordPress is deployedDeploy Launching code from a local development environment to the production web server, so that it's available to visitors. in a large number of environments; and increasingly this is leading to WordPress being used within IPv6-only deployments, where there exists no form of IPv4/dual-stack/IPv64 gateway.

It’s no secret that hosts should realistically provide a 6to4 gateway, or NAT64 / DNS64 service when supplying IPv6-only hosts, but due to the extra burden that supporting both IPv6 and IPv4 places upon them, they’re often (especially in low-cost/low-end VPS markets) choosing against this, and placing the burden upon other hosting infrastructure (WordPress.orgWordPress.org The community site where WordPress code is created and shared by the users. This is where you can download the source code for WordPress core, plugins and themes as well as the central location for community conversations and organization. https://wordpress.org/) instead.

This is leading to an increase in the number of end-user requests along the lines of “Why doesn’t WordPress just work” and “Get with the times”, which while unhelpful, are a valid segment of the WordPress users.

WordPress is not alone in the list of applications installed in hosting environments which doesn’t natively support IPv6, but we’re also not important enough to many of the use-cases for those services (Who often explicitly state, that it’s not viable to be used as a production hosting environment) to cause them to implement basic network functionality to support us.

Current state of IPv6 on WordPress.org:

  • ✅ WordPress.org CDN supports IPv6 (s.w.org)
  • ❌ WordPress APIAPI An API or Application Programming Interface is a software intermediary that allows programs to interact with each other and share data in limited, clearly defined ways. & Downloads are available over IPv6
  • ❌ WordPress.org website is available over IPv6

Meta ticket for reference: https://meta.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3090

This isn’t a ticket requesting IPv6 support; but rather, a discussion point over when IPv6 support may be able to be offered, and any limitations in the WordPress.org infrastructure that currently limits us in providing that.

Add redirect for Google Fonts JSON file

We are currently hosting the Google Fonts JSONJSON JSON, or JavaScript Object Notation, is a minimal, readable format for structuring data. It is used primarily to transmit data between a server and web application, as an alternative to XML. file for the new Font Library feature on the wordpress.org CDN. In order to work around the caching issues with the wordpress.orgWordPress.org The community site where WordPress code is created and shared by the users. This is where you can download the source code for WordPress core, plugins and themes as well as the central location for community conversations and organization. https://wordpress.org/ CDN, would it be possible to create a redirect from a specific fonts wordpress.org subdomain to a JSON file hosted on the wordpress.org CDN?

This would allow the Google Fonts JSON file to be updated without the need to invalidate CDN cache.

For example, https://fonts.wp.org/6.5/google-fonts.json would point to => https://s.w.org/images/fonts/17.7/collections/google-fonts-with-preview.json. Then, if needed, the same URLURL A specific web address of a website or web page on the Internet, such as a website’s URL www.wordpress.org could be updated to point to a different GutenbergGutenberg The Gutenberg project is the new Editor Interface for WordPress. The editor improves the process and experience of creating new content, making writing rich content much simpler. It uses ‘blocks’ to add richness rather than shortcodes, custom HTML etc. https://wordpress.org/gutenberg/ version of the file, e.g. https://s.w.org/images/fonts/17.8/collections/google-fonts-with-preview.json.

Update plugins.trac templates.

Similar to https://make.wordpress.org/systems/2023/02/06/update-plugins-trac-templates/ can we please have svnup-meta-checkouts.sh run on svn2?

Could we also consider adding it to a cron task that runs daily on svn2? (svn1 does not need this)

On svn1 it runs whenever a change to the paths it checks out is modified.

ImageMagick for Photo Directory?

https://meta.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/7460 has asked:

Would it be possible to use ImageMagick for the Photo Directory to better preserve the original colors in the submitted photos?

Is it possible to enable ImageMagick on WordPress.orgWordPress.org The community site where WordPress code is created and shared by the users. This is where you can download the source code for WordPress core, plugins and themes as well as the central location for community conversations and organization. https://wordpress.org/? Any systems reasons why it shouldn’t be?

CORS requests for api.wordpress.org

Most of the WordPress.orgWordPress.org The community site where WordPress code is created and shared by the users. This is where you can download the source code for WordPress core, plugins and themes as well as the central location for community conversations and organization. https://wordpress.org/ APIAPI An API or Application Programming Interface is a software intermediary that allows programs to interact with each other and share data in limited, clearly defined ways. endpoints accept CORS requests, but nginxNGINX NGINX is open source software for web serving, reverse proxying, caching, load balancing, media streaming, and more. It started out as a web server designed for maximum performance and stability. In addition to its HTTP server capabilities, NGINX can also function as a proxy server for email (IMAP, POP3, and SMTP) and a reverse proxy and load balancer for HTTP, TCP, and UDP servers. https://www.nginx.com/. isn’t forwarding OPTIONS requests to these endpoints, when nginx considers it a “static” resource (ie. / and not /index.php)

$ curl -IsX OPTIONS https://api.wordpress.org/core/version-check/1.7/ | grep -Ei '^(HTTP|Access)'
HTTP/1.1 405 Not Allowed

$ curl -IsX OPTIONS https://api.wordpress.org/core/version-check/1.7/index.php | grep -Ei '^(HTTP|Access)'
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *

This is causing problems for playground when making requests that include custom headers, as a preflight request needs to be made.

Would it be possible to redirect OPTIONS on “static” URIs to PHPPHP PHP (recursive acronym for PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor) is a widely-used open source general-purpose scripting language that is especially suited for web development and can be embedded into HTML. http://php.net/manual/en/intro-whatis.php.? Looks like error_page 405 =200 $uri; would do it.

Thanks!

Clear poststatus.com cache in planet

As reported back in November, and today in #7440-meta, feed items from poststatus.com are not appearing on planet.wordpress.orgWordPress.org The community site where WordPress code is created and shared by the users. This is where you can download the source code for WordPress core, plugins and themes as well as the central location for community conversations and organization. https://wordpress.org/, despite being configured.

It works on sandboxes when testing, and as such the only thing I can think of is that the poststatus.com feed cache on planet is broken somehow, preventing it from parsing it.

Can you please:
– backup the following cache file for investigation
rm cache/poststatus.com* on all web nodes
– See if the python cronjob has any related error outputs.

As of making this request, the string ‘Zips not uploading’ should appear in the title of an article on Feb 1st, it’s not currently there in production, but is on sandbox.

Email forwarding for git.wordpress.org

Would it be possible to add email forwarding for username@git.wordpress.org like we have for username@chat.wordpress.org for emails from GitHubGitHub GitHub is a website that offers online implementation of git repositories that can easily be shared, copied and modified by other developers. Public repositories are free to host, private repositories require a paid subscription. GitHub introduced the concept of the ‘pull request’ where code changes done in branches by contributors can be reviewed and discussed before being merged be the repository owner. https://github.com/?

We currently request committers do it, but there’s a proposal to use Co-Authored-By: .....@git.wordpress.org which would benefit from being able to actually verify the email on GitHub.

In my opinion, this forwarder could be shared with the @chat forwarder, unless it’s super easy to split allowed senders by domain.
