The example_user() function is specifically designed for
AARON, hamlet, cordelia, and friends, and it allows a concise
way of using their built-in user profiles. Eventually, the
widespread use of example_user() should help us with refactorings
such as moving the tests users out of the "zulip.com" realm
and deprecating get_user_profile_by_email.
This fixes a performance problem where we were previously starting up
a full Django process (~0.7s even on a fast machine) every time a new
email came in, potentially allowing users to accidentally DoS a Zulip
server. Now, we just post over HTTPS, allowing the existing thread
pool support to do its job.
- Add script wrapper to communicate postfix pipe with django web server
over HTTP(S). It uses shared_secret authentication mode.
- Add django view to process messages from email mirror server.
- Clean management command `email-mirror`. Left just functional
for cron email processing.
- Add routes for new tornado view.
- Change pipe script in master process postfix config template
based on updated script.
- Add tests.
Tweaked by tabbott to adjust the directory and set better defaults.
Fixes#2421.
Finishes the refactoring started in c1bbd8d. The goal of the refactoring is
to change the argument to get_realm from a Realm.domain to a
Realm.string_id. The steps were
* Add a new function, get_realm_by_string_id.
* Change all calls to get_realm to use get_realm_by_string_id instead.
* Remove get_realm.
* (This commit) Rename get_realm_by_string_id to get_realm.
Part of a larger migration to remove the Realm.domain field entirely.
If you supplied an unrecognizable address to our email system,
or you had EMAIL_GATEWAY_PATTERN configured wrong,
the get_missed_message_token_from_address() used to crash
hard and cryptically with a traceback saying that you can't
call startswith() on a None object.
Now we throw a ZulipEmailForwardError exception. This will
still lead to a traceback, but it should be easier to diagnose
the problem.
In our email mirror, we have a special format for missed
message emails that uses a 32-bit randomly generated token
that we put into redis that is then prefixed with "mm" for
a total of 34 characters.
We had a bug where we would mis-classify emails like
mmcfoo@example.com as being these system-generated emails
that were part of the redis setup.
It's actually a little unclear how the bug in the library
function would have manifested from the user's point of view,
but it was definitely buggy code, and it's possibly related in
a subtle way to an error report we got from a customer where
only one of their users, who happened to have a name like
mmcfoo, was having problems with the mirror.
This makes us more consistent, since we have other wrappers
like client_patch, client_put, and client_delete.
Wrapping also will facilitate instrumentation of our posting code.
This reverts commit f1f48f305e.
The use of sklearn unfortunately caused a substantial slowdown to the
Zulip provisioning process, which didn't seem worth it for a
relatively minor feature.
