GUID bugs:
- Fix duplicate GUID issue and tell [Jason](https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox/FMfcgzGrbvKsNQgVWVNKrVqMzRJdDvKk)
- Fix bug with rename catcher which allows two posts to share a guid. It caused a bug with Disqus comments. To reproduce this bug: Rename an entry. Create new entry with old name. Both entries have same GUID.
- Fix bug with two entries with the same guid, possibly related to an entry rename event (i.e. copying the guid across). Make sure that when a rename happens, the old entry is permanently deleted and its guid cannot be reused. I imagine that WRITE foo.txt MV foo.txt bar.txt WRITE bar.txt could trigger this bug.

Improve Google Drive client:
- How do we handle two files with same name and same parent? How does our fileId:path hash handle this? Make sure we delete the right file. Will file.title as opposed to file.name give us the deduped version?
- Bug: move file with deduplicated name from sub folder to other folder
- download should check for an existing file with same name but different fileId and dedupe before storing the path?
- Handle revoked credentials without tanking server
- Can the google drive client handle a server restart during setup?
- database.folder should throw ENOENT and EEXIST errors for del, set, move etc.
- Error handling
- Retry when we get google drive's This service is not available error
- Handle storage quota errors
- Handle 429 errors with exponential backoff retry
- Implement `folder.rename` method to take advantage of Google Drive's true rename feature
- Add a way for sync/build to accept a ctime as an option. We can't set this at the operating system level but google drive's API does return a createdTime value and we could use this as the true file's created date, rather than the date the file is made on the server
- `write` should use the best method for large file uploading
- Work out if we can test this using Mocks
Improvements to Dropbox client:
- [ ] Determine if we can hack our way to determining the file upload date on Dropbox using their API?
- [ ] Parallelize build/download a little more, so posts appear when many files are dropped into folder?
- [ ] Efficiently handle Dropbox file renames with internal hash of fileIDs
- [ ] surface errors during setup on dashboard
- [ ] surface sync issues with Dropbox client on the homepage of dashboard
- [ ] How do we make errors sticky? To make sure users click through to clients page to re-connect to Dropbox, etc...
- [ ] run reset-to-blot when sync fails / errors
- [ ] ensure that when a process dies, any blogs syncing will be reset-to-blot
- [ ] ensure that when a process dies, any blogs setting up db client will be re-attempted
- [ ] reconnecting with the same account and same permissions should not create a new folder for `full_access=true`
- [ ] make full_folder use the old app folder directory – is there a way to disconnect it from the Blot app? otherwise add a big warning to prevent confusion about where the new folder is when transitioning permissions
- [ ] handle the download of large files gracefully too
- [ ] consider adding back in download/upload stream, but add a check to see if the download is stuck then fall back to other method?
- [ ] add a check for folder storage before doing mass upload
- [ ] handle folder full error appropriately
- [ ] handle a sync lock failure on second blog when migrating an app folder
- [ ] check content hash for upload possible

Improvements to dashboard:
- Smooth over the custom domain adding process
- cache domain validity and display checkmark on dashboard
- validate the domain is pointing to Blot before allowing resty-auto-ssl to request a cert. we seem to get into a DNS mismatch where a client thinks a domain points to Blot, and triggers a cert request through resty-auto-ssl but whatever DNS server Blot's server points to has the stale record (pointing elsewhere)

Improvements to teaser generator
- Improve estimate of teaser length
- Remove trailing non-text elements (like <hr>)
- Add {{small}} and {{long}} versions of teaser?
- Fix bug with makeTeaser for ~/Dropbox/bug.html which locks main process painfully
- Internal links (e.g. #section) in {{{teaser}}} should be resolved against the entry's permalink.

- Make it [possible for users to select length of teasers](https://blot.im/questions/823) and [Leo](https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox/FMfcgzGqQJdjwTLkHkRZvZTQvfSzSFTq)
Performance improvements
- Consider switching redis client, perhaps to ioredis?
- Use a docker image to speed up test suite: https://github.com/davidmerfield/Blot/pull/463
- Faster server, with SSL termination across CDN
- set up 'cdn.blot.im' as cloudfront distribution endpoint?
- Streamline and cache loading of data on dashboard
- Ensure node.js server has one process per CPU
- Detect CPU intensive functions in node.js process
- Use the [--trace-sync-io command-line flag](https://expressjs.com/en/advanced/best-practice-performance.html#set-node_env-to-production) to determine if Blot is using any sync methods inappropriately
- Can we keep the pandoc child_process running and pipe stuff in and out for speed? Measure before after to ensure this helps
- Add request level timeouts to prevent server swamping
- ensure to remove the timeout from the SSE streaming routes (drafts, sync status on dashboard)
- read this guide: http://expressjs.com/en/resources/middleware/timeout.html
- it seems we also need to cancel the resources involved in responding to the request (i.e. disk io, db calls) for this to be really useful
- Add a timeout of 15 seconds for building posts.
Server changes
- Write useful benchmark tool for Blot
- Work out how to detect stray build processes. There were a bunch of zombies consuming memory on Blot's server. Work out how to kill them safely
- Experiment with different EBS types, perhaps try to use ephemeral disk more since lower latency?
- Take full advantage of attached SSD
- use rsync/inotify to synchronize 'source of truth' EBS disk with the local SSD cache then modify NGINX to check the synced folder on the /cache disk
- on boot we would gently copy across all /blogs folders and the /static directory in background task

- Fix 'Visit' link on dashboard
- Can we expand this to a simple self-hosting process ('npx blot-server')?
Template engine plan
- create data/blogs/blogID/templates directory
- show error message on preview-of subdomain
- only allow valid templates to get stored in data/blogs/blogID/templates, used for live site?
- maybe we only store in redis valid templates, live site pulls
---
Improve server-side scheduled tasks:
- Write task to identify and delete long overdue customers

- Fix summary generator such that a subtitle is used for summary text (i.e. an h2 directly following an h1) We still want to prevent the scenario in which a later h2 becomes the summary, though. Notify [Jessica and rebuild Jessica's site](https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox/KtbxLwghhxtxrtdGHFqBRMcDGkGWtxvSdq)

- upvoting for topics and upvote-based ranking on the topic index
- show vote count and answer count next to each question on index
- add a filter for topic index to show questions by: 'Newest', 'Active', 'Unanswered', 'Votes'
- 'run code snippet' feature / similar to trinkets.io

Redirect URLs with trailing slash when possible (i.e. not directory browsing) to [fix possible duplicate content penalties](https://moz.com/community/q/duplicate-content-with-a-trailing-slash) and tell [Marius](https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox/FMfcgxwKkHhPFPKFBzQjQQHwlrRWwbKq)
- Add rel=canonical to all the default templates, or fix the issue that Blot serves the same thing to URLs with a trailing slash, and without.
- If we do add rel=canonical, make sure to consider the situation where someone mounts a page to the index of their site, e.g. /page/1 and / will now be different.
Add way to nest tags / hierarchy for tags and tell [Uzoamaka](https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox/FMfcgxwLsJwTqFWjRgHLhPXJgBtnGwJJ)
Adjust the chargeForRemaining function in create-blog such that the balance is added or deducted from the proration charge.
Rewrite transformer (in app/helper/transformer)
- Speak HTTP properly, respect backoffs, use/send eTags
- Share information across blogs?
- Improve transformer so it checks a file's MTIME against a stored value before rehashing the file?
- Adjust interface to accept a number of directories. Make it 'unaware' of blog IDs?
- Add method which accepts a path or URL and flushes what is stored for it, update the rebuild entry script
- Cache errors. When a post contains multiple identical links to images that timeout/404, the thumbnail generator should only make 1 attempt to fetch them. Right now we have a post that is filled with identical broken image links (in this case to a spacer.gif) can suck up the build process for hours.
