This text is very old and hadn't been edited in a long time, in large
part because it was buried within old docs. This change cleans it up
to give accurate and better-organized information.
* Moves "Management commands" to a top-level section.
* Moves "Scalability" as a subsection at the bottom of "Requirements".
* Moves "Monitoring" as a subsections at the bottom of "Troubleshooting".
* Replaces "API and your Zulip URL" with a link to REST API docs. This
documentation text has been irrelevant for some time.
* Removes maintain-secure-upgrade from the TOC but the file remains to
avoid breaking old links from release blog posts and emails.
Lists API client bindings/libraries/wrappers and makes a distinction
between official core projects and community projects.
Tweaked by tabbott to sort the community and outdated libraries, and
restructure how we talk about other projects.
Fixes#2093.
This simple change switches us to take advantage of the
server-maintained data for the pm_conversations system we implemented
originally for mobile use.
This should make it a lot more convenient to find historical private
message conversations, since one can effectively scroll infinitely
into the history.
We'll need to do some profiling of the backend after this is deployed
in production; it's possible we'll need to add some database indexes,
denormalization, or other optimizations to avoid making loading the
Zulip app significantly slower.
Fixes#12502.
message_id, rather than timestamps, is our standard way to sort by
time. And this refactor is important because we're about to start
using data from the server to populate this data structure.
This avoids a stream having potentially near-infinite height when
opened in a stream with a large number of unread topics; the benefit
is that you can easily access the next stream.
We show an unread count next to "more topics" to make it hard to miss
that there might be more, older topics with unread messages.

Previously, the LDAP code for syncing user data was not
multiple-realm-aware, resulting in errors trying to sync data for an
LDAP user present in multiple realms.
Tweaked by tabbott to add some extended comments.
Fixes#11520.
Since we don’t support downgrading from master to any 2.0.x release,
we shouldn’t set a ZULIP_VERSION that might lead someone to mistake
any such downgrade for an upgrade. ZULIP_VERSION should always be at
least a minor version ahead of LATEST_RELEASE_VERSION, except on the
release branch.
`.dev` is a decreasing suffix that sorts before `alpha`, `beta`, `rc`
according to PEP 440/`packaging.version.Version`.

For a long time, we've been only doing the zxcvbn password strength
checks on the browser, which is helpful, but means users could through
hackery (or a bug in the frontend validation code) manage to set a
too-weak password. We fix this by running our password strength
validation on the backend as well, using python-zxcvbn.
In theory, a bug in python-zxcvbn could result in it producing a
different opinion than the frontend version; if so, it'd be a pretty
bad bug in the library, and hopefully we'd hear about it from users,
report upstream, and get it fixed that way. Alternatively, we can
switch to shelling out to node like we do for KaTeX.
Fixes#6880.
A bug in Zulip's new user signup process meant that users who
registered their account using social authentication (e.g. GitHub or
Google SSO) in an organization that also allows password
authentication could have their personal API key stolen by an
unprivileged attacker, allowing nearly full access to the user's
account.
Zulip versions between 1.7.0 and 2.0.6 were affected.
This commit fixes the original bug and also contains a database
migration to fix any users with corrupt `password` fields in the
database as a result of the bug.
Out of an abundance of caution (and to protect the users of any
installations that delay applying this commit), the migration also
resets the API keys of any users where Zulip's logs cannot prove the
user's API key was not previously stolen via this bug. Resetting
those API keys will be inconvenient for users:
* Users of the Zulip mobile and terminal apps whose API keys are reset
will be logged out and need to login again.
* Users using their personal API keys for any other reason will need
to re-fetch their personal API key.
We discovered this bug internally and don't believe it was disclosed
prior to our publishing it through this commit. Because the algorithm
for determining which users might have been affected is very
conservative, many users who were never at risk will have their API
keys reset by this migration.
To avoid this on self-hosted installations that have always used
e.g. LDAP authentication, we skip resetting API keys on installations
that don't have password authentication enabled. System
administrators on installations that used to have email authentication
enabled, but no longer do, should temporarily enable EmailAuthBackend
before applying this migration.
The migration also records which users had their passwords or API keys
reset in the usual RealmAuditLog table.

Updates the message editing process to do a local 'echo'.
On slow connections, now there is visual confirmation of the edit,
similar to when sending messages. The contains_backend_only_syntax
logic and check are the same as there.
We showing "(SAVING)" until the edit is completed, and on successful
edit, the word "(EDITED)" appears. There's likely useful future work
to do on making the animation experience nicer.
Substantially rewritten by tabbott to better handle corner cases and
communicate more clearly about what's happening.

This change makes it possible for users to control the notification
settings for wildcard mentions as a separate control from PMs and
direct @-mentions.

A half dozen files were removed from the changes by tabbott pending
further work to ensure we avoid breaking valuable PRs with merge

Hovering over user names (and user circles for PM List) now displays
Name, Status Message and Last online time in a js tooltip.
Hovering over group names displays the names of all group members.
Unavailable users are shown as "Last active: Today".
Hovering on a user circle in the Buddy List results in a js tooltip
with Active/Idle/Offline/Unavailable for
green/orange/white/white-with-line.
Resolves#11607.
When strings are tagged for translation using `tr this`, the strings
were passed into the frontend i18n as-is (including new line and tab
characters that are not functional in the text, existing just to
format the HTML files reasonably).
This did not match the algorithm used in `manage.py makemessages` for
extracting strings for translation, which (correctly) removed that
whitespace to provide a good experience for translators. The fix is
for the `tr this` implementation to use that same whitespace-stripping
algorithm.
Tested manually by checking if those strings that were not translated
earlier were translated, and also fixed an automated test that had the
wrong result, which should help prevent regressions.
Fixes#13389.
This includes adding a new endpoint to the push notification bouncer
interface, and code to call it appropriately after resetting a user's
personal API key.
When we add support for a user having multiple API keys, we may need
to add an additional key here to support removing keys associated with
just one client.
This allows us to email sets of users on a server with a nicely
formatted email similar to our onboarding emails, built off of a
Markdown template.
The code was based on send_password_reset_email, but it doesn't
replace that use case, since one cannot include special values like
password reset tokens in these emails.
We move the check that the user is a member or admin inot this
decorator.
This name better communicates that this may do other checks beyond
just verifying the policy.
Curl examples generated in test_generated_curl_examples_for_success
