Finally moved over the public search API from the old version and
updated the about page to show the new data structure
Also tweaked the location update script to change 'defederate' to
'suspend' for the sake of consistency
Switched from using external CSV exports to having the system talk to
instances directly to build and update the database.
NOTE: Added a new table called Source with the corresponding model to
access it
The archived build errors out when it finds the images json field is
null, so this will replace a null value with an empty array instead.
Should probalby just make images non null and an empty array the default
Brought over the old form for adding new location to the db and the
plugged everything back up using Laravel's eloquent orm (which is pretty
fucking sweet) to re-active that process
NOTE: larvel gets a twitchy when sequencing isn't explicitly set some
minor edits needed to be made to the development DB to prevent a null id
error when inserting new records. this should be done to production when
it's ready as well
Added some controllers and template pages to test connection with the db
and begin the process of porting over functionality to this version.
Also made some minor tweaks to formatting configs and updated a color in
the css
