This enforces our use of a consistent style in how we access Python
modules; "from os.path import dirname" is a particularly popular
abbreviation inconsistent with our style, and so it deserves a lint
rule.
Commit message and error text tweaked by tabbott.
Fixes#6543.
Also make our dependency on `six` (for e.g. `replace-tarball-shebang`)
explicit -- we've been getting it via `python-pip`, but `python3-pip`
(on trusty) doesn't have that dependency for some reason.
get_package_names did not correctly strip the GitHub URLs from package
names, resulting in the "package names" for our dependencies installed
from Git being tracked with the complete sha1sum included in the name.
This meant that upgrading our virtualenvs incorrectly ended up
resorting to creating an entirely new virtualenv whenever we changed a
dependency that had previously been installed from GitHub URLs.
This adds a new system for copying packages from old virtualenvs that
are sufficiently similar to the new virtualenv required.
In practice, this results in a huge performance improvement for
re-provisioning Zulip development environments when the requirements
files have changed (which is the dominant performance problem with
provision today).
Fixes: #1507.
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.
In python 3, subprocess uses bytes for input and output if
universal_newlines=False (the default). It uses str for input and
output if universal_newlines=True.
Since we're dealing with strings here, add universal_newlines=True
to subprocess.check_output calls.
This is important for both ensuring the Nagios checks work correctly
in production, as well as making sure the `zulip` user can access the
virtualenv (owned by the `travis` user) in Travis CI.
Apparently, c74a74dc74 introduced a bug
where we are no longer correctly depending on build-essential as part
of the Zulip development environment installation process.
Fixes#1111.
This is needed because hash_reqs.py is used to create a virtualenv.
Currently we only use virtualenv in development, but we will soon
start using it in production. Scripts used in production should be
put in scripts/.
