Shareabouts Versions Save

New Features:

• Updated to Django 3.2
• Support patching in model sync -- This makes it possible to modify the visibility of an idea, even when it has a logged-in submitter.
• A few more tests -- The Shareabouts client has been woefully light on tests, which has made me squeamish about major updates in the past. Trying to not let that hold the project back in the future.

Upgrade Steps:

• The Shareabouts configuration should be backwards-compatible with 3.26.0, with the exception of any Django settings that may be in a local_settings.py file. If you have any settings in that file that aren't specific to Shareabouts, please refer to the appropriate Django release notes.

• Allow overriding config parameters with environment variables

  The majority of the configuration values in config.yml can be overridden with environment variables. You can determine what the environment variable to override a setting should be called by joining the setting's path with double underscores, converting to uppercase, and prepending with SHAREABOUTS__. For example, say you have the configuration options:

  place:
    adding_supported:
      from: 2017-03-07 09:00 -0500
      until: 2017-04-04 09:00 -0400
  

  You could override these settings with the two env variables:

  SHAREABOUTS__PLACE__ADDING_SUPPORTED__FROM = 2017-03-07 09:00 -0500
  SHAREABOUTS__PLACE__ADDING_SUPPORTED__UNTIL = 2017-04-04 09:00 -0400
  

• Allow hiding/showing places and comments with appropriate permissions.

  The following handlebars helpers can be used to check the current user's permissions:

  • {{# can_add_places }} -- Checks whether adding is supported or the current user is in a place.editors group.
  • {{# can_moderate_places }} -- Checks whether the current user is in a place.moderators group. Moderators can show or hide places.
  • {{# can_edit_places }} -- Checks whether the current user is in a place.editors group. Editors can change the content of places, and add places outside of the adding supported time.

  When can_add_places is true, the add button show up on the interface. When can_edit_places or can_moderate_places is true, a control bar with show/hide and delete buttons is available on each place detail page.

Collect the language code being use (for analytics)

Page slug navigation now works with nested page configurations

Allow overriding of the language picker template separate from the rest of the base template.
