- our themeErrorRenderer is only used in the frontend.. move it there
- this required exposing prepareError as shared middleware
- TODO: move these shared compontents to @tryghost/error
- Reduced our maintenance middleware code down to the bare minimum!
- We have an old maintenance middleware in place to handle when a site is forcibly put into maintenance mode, or the urlService hasn't finished booting
- This maintenance middleware was mounted on every sub app, instead of globally for reasons I no longer remember
- Recently, we introduced a new, static version of maintenence middleware to show during the boot process so we can get the server started earlier & not drop requests
- This version has its own HTML template and doesn't depend on any of Ghost's error rendering code
- To simplify and help with decoupling, this commit merges the two middleware, so that the new independent & static middleware renders its template for any one of the 3 possible maintenance modes
- It only needs to exist in the top level app 🙌
TODO: move the maintenance middleware to its own file/package so it's not part of the app.js as that is weird
- Currently it's assumed that public files are 100% static
- With card assets, we're using it for files that are partially static, but can change between reboots and theme changes
- We already have a system for managing cache busting across theme changes and restarts - the ?v= key that is added via the asset helper
- This was already in place and used, but servePublicFile's internal cache didn't honor this key, and cached for the lifetime of boot
- This small change means that if a ?v= query param is present on a request for a public file, that we pay attention to it. Else we cache as before

- Ghost cannot write to the core folder in correctly configured production installations
- Built assets therefore need to be written to the content directory
- Ghost does not overwrite anything in the content folder as part of an upgrade, therefore static files that are provided by Ghost
must still live inside /core
- So as a result, we now have core/frontend/public and content/public
- This is a minor bugbare, but it will affect some configuration I'm about to do for c8
- I've been wanting to do it for ages, middleware is plural all on it's own so it's an odd affectation in our codebase
- This also only exists in 2 places, everywhere else we use "middleware"
- Sadly it did result in a lot of churn as I did a full find and replace, but consistency is king!

- Static files uploaded through the Admin Files API should be accessible throught the world under `/content/files/`
- Note the feature is behind an alpha "filesAPI" flag, which has to be enabled in the labs first
- Wired up the forntend to include and serve the minified css and js card assets if they exist
- This is a very naive implementation - ideally we wouldn't have to inject this in multiple places
- This allows us to add files to src/cards and have them included in themes
- The system is currently disabled due to an override in the theme config setting assets to false
- If we register the serve public file middleware for a file that doesn't exist, this will currently throw an ENOENT error
- Instead, we want to fall back to a standard 404 so that this behaves normally
- This will be useful for the card asset service, where the cards.min.css and cards.min.js files may or may not exist

- Media files uploaded through the Admin Media API should be accessible throught the frontend under `/content/media/`
- Note the feature is behind an alpha "mediaAPI" flag that has to be enabled in the labs first
refs https://github.com/TryGhost/Members/commit/9e59f5a9
Since we have a DynamicRedirectManager for handling adding/removing
redirects at runtime, we no longer need the custom-redirects middleware.
The redirects service does however need an init method now to add the
custom redirects at Ghost boot, so it's been refactored into our Class &
DI pattern.
- we're slowly trying to draw the lines between the backend and the frontend correctly
- these files deal only with serving the frontend so they should live there
- there are lots of mixed requires in these files, so having them in the right place makes that clear
