The logo cache was keyed by whatever names the sponsors list named and
never pruned, so a list naming thousands of logos made the public logo
route pin hundreds of megabytes, and every hourly refresh with new
names added more.
Only the first 32 distinct logo names of the active list are kept,
surplus sponsors render with their initial as a bad logo name already
does, and each store drops cached logos no longer on the list.
The sidebar no longer carries a sponsor card. The backend stops serving
the "sidebar" slot, so a sponsors.json entry that still lists it keeps
only its other slots and one listing nothing else is dropped. Its
rotation, three-sponsor cap and collapsed-rail logo rendering go with it.
The Sponsors page now lists only real sponsors: the "Your brand here"
card shows only as the empty state instead of sitting in the grid and
repeating the header's Become a sponsor button, and the Available
placements section and its slot-occupancy helper are removed. Cards are
larger, two per row on wide screens. Unused i18n keys are dropped from
every locale.
sponsors.json only had an end date, so a booked placement had to be
added to the file on the day it started. An optional `from` now hides
a sponsor (and its logo) until that instant; entries without it show
immediately as before.
Most tests opened a throwaway panel DB with database.InitDB, which runs the
full AutoMigrate + seed on an empty file every time: ~230ms, and ~850ms under
-race because GORM's reflection-heavy migration is what the detector slows
most. internal/web/service does this in ~550 of its 830 tests, so the CI race
job spent ~10 of its ~14.6 minutes re-migrating empty databases.
internal/database/dbtest.InitDB migrates once per test process, then hands
each test its own copy of that file (~130ms under -race) and registers the
CloseDB cleanup. The copy then goes through InitDB like a panel restart, so
every test still starts from the state a fresh install has. Tests that reopen
an existing file, migrate a hand-built legacy DB or target Postgres keep
calling database.InitDB.
Locally under -race: internal/web/service 626s (last CI run) -> 114s,
internal/sub 246s -> 35s.
Monthly sponsor placements need to change without cutting a panel
release. Panels now read 3X/sponsors.json from the MHSanaei/sponsors
repo (GitHub Pages on sponsors.sanaei.dev) and show active sponsors in
four slots: an overview banner, a rotating sidebar card (max three), the
login page and a new Sponsors page that also lists open placements.
An entry shows only while enable is not false and until is in the
future; links must be https and logos are png/webp/jpg by name only.
The list is cached for an hour and the last good copy survives upstream
failures; logos are proxied through /sponsors/logo/:name with failures
cached, so CSP stays 'self' and admin browsers never reach a third
party. Admins can hide a slot for 24h. Under XUI_DEBUG the panel reads
a sibling ../sponsors/3X checkout so edits can be previewed before push.
