Moodle announced that support for IE would be dropped back in August
2020 with Moodle 3.9 but not active steps were taken at that time. That
decision was made in MDLSITE-6109 and this particular step was meant to
be taken in Moodle 3.10.
This is the first step taken to actively drop support for IE.
This commit also bumps the browser support pattern from 0.25% to 0.3%.
The percentage here includes any browser where at least this percentage
of users worldwide may be using a browser. In this case it causes
support for Android 4.3-4.4 to be dropped, which relate to Android
KitKat (released 2013).
This combination of changes means that all of the supported browsers in
our compatibility list support modern features including async,
for...of, classes, native Promises, and more which has a huge impact on
the ease of debugging code, and drastically reduces the minified file
size because a number of native Polyfills included by Babel are no
longer included.
Unfortunately the babel minify-mangle plugin seems to be abandoned and
in certain circumstances can be very buggy. The only safe options are to
disable it, or to switch to a different minification library.
Not minifying our javascript is not ideal, so this commit updates the
javascript tasks to use a rollup, combined with babel, and terser.
Babel still converts code from ES/UMD/AMD to AMD modules with the
relevant browser support, whilst terser minifies the code.
The rollup bundler handles tracking and creation of sourcemaps, and
supports better parallelisation of the tasks.
Since the upgrade to Node LTS/Gallium requires an upgrade to @babel/core
and eslint, which change the built files anyway, this seems like the
ideal time to make this change.
While testing the changed unit tests one by one, the
payment/tests/helper_test.php was failing because of a mismatch
between the dataProvider data and the param type.
That made me think why that error was not popping in complete runs
and the answer is that the new (3.10) subsystem is not in the
phpunit.xml.dist file.
Hence, adding it and fixing the dataProvider mismatch.
Finally, it has been detected that some old ICU versions (< 62)
have an incorrect behaviour, not adding the required non-breaking
white-space between the currency abbreviation and the value. So
we are skipping some payment tests if that's found.
These are the only cases 100% safe to apply the renaming of the
testcase class names to match the file names.
All other cases are not safe, because they are missing namespace
and may enter into name conflicts. Adding namespaces is not as
simple as imagined because it implies to, also, add a good number
of modifications to core. See the issue for more details.
- Add help for 'payment account' field in the enrol instance form
- Remove MOODLE_INTERNALs when not necessary
- Add $userid to deliver_order
- Check if provider classes implement the provider interface
- Rename get_cost to get_payable
- get_payable returns payable object
- Improve registerEventListeners and added init
- Rename payment\provider to payment\service_provider
