For better performances when listing all the API keys.
Loading all the "api key scopes" is slow and not required when showing the list of all the api keys.
What is the problem here?
In multiple controllers, we are accepting a `limit` params but do not
impose any upper bound on the values being accepted. Without an upper
bound, we may be allowing arbituary users from generating DB queries
which may end up exhausing the resources on the server.
What is the fix here?
A new `fetch_limit_from_params` helper method is introduced in
`ApplicationController` that can be used by controller actions to safely
get the limit from the params as a default limit and maximum limit has
to be set. When an invalid limit params is encountered, the server will
respond with the 400 response code.
Adding a scope from a plugin was broken. This commit fixes it and adds a test.
It also documents the instance method and renames the serialized "id" attribute to "scope_id" to avoid a conflict when the scope also has a parameter with the same name.
* Added scopes UI
* Create scopes when creating a new API key
* Show scopes on the API key show route
* Apply scopes on API requests
* Extend scopes from plugins
* Add missing scopes. A mapping can be associated with multiple controller actions
* Only send scopes if the use global key option is disabled. Use the discourse plugin registry to add new scopes
* Add not null validations and index for api_key_id
* Annotate model
* DEV: Move default mappings to ApiKeyScope
* Remove unused attribute and improve UI for existing keys
* Support multiple parameters separated by a comma
- Allow revoking keys without deleting them
- Auto-revoke keys after a period of no use (default 6 months)
- Allow multiple keys per user
- Allow attaching a description to each key, for easier auditing
- Log changes to keys in the staff action log
- Move all key management to one place, and improve the UI
