* action: Add action to check bridge connectivity
It is currently not simply possible to check if the remote
server for a bridge is reachable or not, which means some
of the bridges might no longer work because the server is
no longer on the internet.
In order to find those bridges we can either check each
bridge individually (which takes a lot of effort), or use
an automated script to do this for us.
If a server is no longer reachable it could mean that it is
temporarily unavailable, or shutdown permanently. The results
of this script will at least help identifying such servers.
* [Connectivity] Use Bootstrap container to properly display contents
* [Connectivity] Limit connectivity checks to debug mode
Connectivity checks take a long time to execute and can require a lot
of bandwidth. Therefore, administrators should be able to determine
when and who is able to utilize this action. The best way to prevent
regular users from accessing this action is by making it available in
debug mode only (public servers should never run in debug mode anyway).
* [Connectivity] Split implemenation into multiple files
* [Connectivity] Make web page responsive to user input
* [Connectivity] Make status message sticky
* [Connectivity] Add icon to the status message
* [contents] Add the ability for getContents to return header information
* [Connectivity] Add header information to the reply Json data
* [Connectivity] Add new status (blue) for redirected sites
Also adds titles to status icons (Successful, Redirected, Inactive, Failed)
* [Connectivity] Fix show doesn't work for inactive bridges
* [Connectivity] Fix typo
* [Connectivity] Catch errors in promise chains
* [Connectivity] Allow search by status and update dynamically
* [Connectivity] Add a progress bar
* [Connectivity] Use bridge factory
* [Connectivity] Import Bootstrap v4.3.1 CSS
The cache factory can be based on the abstract factory class if it
wasn't static. This allows for higher abstraction and makes future
extensions possible. Also, not all parts of RSS-Bridge need to work
on the same instance of the factory.

Response headers may contain fields with no values.
Example:
"Referrer-Policy: "
In this case the current implementation of explode() results in an
error because there is no content after ": ". Changing the delimiter
to ":" and trimming the value manually fixes that issue.
- For consistency, functions should always return null on non-existing data.
- WordPressPluginUpdateBridge appears to have used its own cache instance in the past. Obviously not used anymore.
- Since $key can be anything, the cache implementation must ensure to assign the related data reliably; most commonly by serializing and hashing the key in an appropriate way.
- Even though the default path for storage is perfectly fine, some people may want to use a different location. This is an example how a cache implementation is responsible for its requirements.
This commit adds support for a new parameter which specifies the type
of cache to use for caching. It is specified in config.ini.php:
[cache]
type = "..."
Currently only one type of cache is supported (see /caches). All uses
of 'FileCache' were replaced by this configuration option.
Note: Caching currently depends on files and folders (due to FileCache).
Experience may vary depending on the selected cache type. For now always
check if FileCache is working before testing alternative types.
References #1000
This commit adds a cache for 'getContents' to '/cache/server'. All
contents are cached by default (even in debug mode). If debug mode
is enabled, the cached data is overwritten on each request.
In normal mode RSS-Bridge adds the 'If-Modified-Since' header with
the timestamp from the previously cached data (if available) to the
request.
Find more information on 'If-Modified-Since' here:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/If-Modified-Since
If the server responds with "304 Not Modified", the cached data is
returned.
If the server responds with "200 OK", the received data is written
to the cache (creates a new cache file if it doesn't exist yet).
No changes were made for all other response codes.
Servers that don't support the 'If-Modified-Since' header, will
respond with "200 OK".
For servers that respond with "304 Not Modified", the required band-
width will decrease and RSS-Bridge will responding faster.
Files in the cache are forcefully removed after 24 hours.
Notice: Only few servers actually do support 'If-Modified-Since'.
Thus, most bridges won't be affected by this change.
Also adds documentation to Debug.php!
* Debug::isEnabled()
Checks if the DEBUG file exists on disk on the first call (stored in
memory for the duration of the instance). Returns true if debug mode
is enabled for the client.
This function also sets the internal flag for Debug::isSecure()!
* Debug::isSecure()
Returns true if debuging is enabled for specific IP addresses, false
otherwise. This is checked on the first call of Debug::isEnabled().
If you call this function before Debug::isEnabled(), the default value
is false.
Replaces 'debugMessage' by specialized debug function 'Debug::log'.
This function takes the same arguments as the previous 'debugMessage'.
A separate Debug class allows for further optimization and separation
of concern.
Move CACHE_DIR from index.php to /lib/RssBridge.php and change name
to PATH_CACHE.
PATH_CACHE is one of the core paths of RSS-Bridge and should therefore
be defined in the core file RssBridge.php.
Adds additional messages to the error log when fetching contents. The
data is helpful in finding issues with receiving contents from servers.

Adds detection for servers responding with Cloudflare challenges,
throwing a server error if detected:
"The server responded with a Cloudflare challenge, which is not
supported by RSS-Bridge! If this error persists longer than a week,
please consider opening an issue on GitHub!"
This is supposed to support maintainers to identify broken bridges
for sites with Cloudflare enabled permanently. It doesn't circumvent
the protection in any form or shape!
The Cloudflare challenge is detected by analyzing the last response
header received from the server. If the HTTP Code is not 200 (OK)
and the server name contains 'cloudflare' ('Server: cloudflare'),
RSS-Bridge assumes the server responded with a challenge.
The header parsing is based on https://stackoverflow.com/a/18682872
cURL is a powerful library specifically designed to connect to many
different types of servers with different types of protocols. For
more detailed information refer to the PHP cURL manual:
- http://php.net/manual/en/book.curl.php
Due to this change some parameters for the getContents function were
necessary (also applies to getSimpleHTMLDOM and getSimpleHTMLDOMCached):
> $use_include_path removed
This parameter has never been used and doesn't even make sense in
this context; If set to true file_get_contents would also search
for files in the include_path (specified in php.ini).
> $context replaced by $header and $opts
The $context parameter allowed for customization of the request in
order to change how file_get_contents would acquire the data (i.e.
using POST instead of GET, sending custom header, etc...)
cURL also provides facilities to specify custom headers and change
how it communicates to severs. cURL, however, is much more advanced.
- $header is an optional parameter (empty by default). It receives
an array of strings to send in the HTTP request header.
See 'CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER':
"An array of HTTP header fields to set, in the format
array('Content-type: text/plain', 'Content-length: 100')"
- php.net/manual/en/function.curl-setopt.php
- $opts is an optional parameter (empty by default). It receives
an array of options, where each option is a key-value-pair of
a cURL option (CURLOPT_*) and it's associated parameter. This
parameter accepts any of the CURLOPT_* settings.
Example (sending POST instead of GET):
$opts = array(
CURLOPT_POST => 1,
CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS => '&action=none'
);
$html = getContents($url, array(), $opts);
Refer to the cURL setopt manual for more information:
- php.net/manual/en/function.curl-setopt.php
> $offset and $maxlen removed
These options were supported by file_get_contents, but there doesn't
seem to be an equivalent in cURL. Since no caller uses them they are
safe to remove.
Compressed data / Encoding
By using cURL instead of file_get_contents RSS-Bridge no longer has
to handle compressed data manually.
See 'CURLOPT_ENCODING':
"[...] Supported encodings are "identity", "deflate", and "gzip".
If an empty string, "", is set, a header containing all supported
encoding types is sent."
- http://php.net/manual/en/function.curl-setopt.php
Notice: By default all encoding types are accepted (""). This can
be changed by setting a custom option via $opts.
Example:
$opts = array(CURLOPT_ENCODING => 'gzip');
$html = getContents($url, array(), $opts);
Proxy
The proxy implementation should still work, but there doesn't seem
to be an equivalent for 'request_fulluri = true'. To my understanding
this isn't an issue because cURL knows how to handle proxy communication.
