Currently, the descriptions for API responses were
hardcoded in the templates. However, they now exist
in YAML data as well, and so can be fetched from there.
Also, as a part of moving towards a common template, it is
beneficial to show return response description along with
the code example directly. Also, for the same reason, the
need for mentioning subschemas for the response has been
removed, and ALL responses for that response code should
be returned in the proper format.
This also includes returning empty string if that response
code doesn't exist. This allows us to directly mention both
200 and 400 responses in all templates, and they are parsed
automatically.
A followup is necessary to remove the descriptions in the template
as they are duplicated just by this commit
Currently, the descriptions of API responses were
hardcoded in the template. However, as a part of the
goal of moving towards a common template, these should
be auto-generated.
This commit copies these descriptions into the `description`
parameter in the OpenAPI data for that effect.
Rename poll_timeout to event_queue_longpoll_timeout_seconds
and change its value from 90000 ms to 90 sec. Expose its
value in register api response when realm data is fetched.
Bump API_FEATURE_LEVEL to 74.
Expose the boolean value server_needs_upgrade in the
responses for register api so that it can be used
by mobile and terminal clients as well.
Highlighted in api changelog as part of
feature level 74 in commit fb93c96
(next commit).
This commit adds support for testing of
those endpoints whose .md files would
be deleted in favour of their pages
to be generated automatically by the template.
curl examples for such endpoints must exist
in accordance to the pattern of template, which
can be used to run the tests for them.
The list curl_commands_to_test gets filled
already and so, the code to test each command
in the list can be moved out of the block that
opens the file. The only change in this commit
is reducing an indentation for the entire block.
This has been done to reuse the whole block
in case the file does not exist.
This commit refactors the code to find the
lines to be first, and then test all the
lines that contained commands.
This was done to avoid duplication of
the code for the other case, where the
.md file won't exist, as those are soon
to be deleted in favour of a common template.
Soon, the .md files of each endpoint would
be removed and be auto-generated from OpenAPI
data.
So, instead of using the files directly,
we should check from the list of endpoints and
open the files from there.
A follow-up to change logic when the .md files
get deleted should be done.
Since caa08d76b5, we no longer have
a common component for stream IDs in zulip.yaml, so we might as
well change the description to be specific and clear.
The current logic of geneerating HTML titles requires the title to be
present as a heading in the first line of .md file. However, this will
shortly be no longer true for /api pages where these are
auto-generated from OpenAPI data. Modified the code to fetch the
title from OpenAPI data in case of such pages.
Currently, the title of each endpoint are hardcoded in .md
files, but these are also added in summary parameter of
openapi. Added a markdown processor to insert the title
of a given endpoint.
As a part of effort of removing .md files for /api pages, the
title of each page can be added into the summary OpenAPI
parameter. This also adds a nice summary visible in Swagger
and enhances the documentation. Added the parameter for all endpoints.
Since this is currently only useful to interpret presence data, we
send this only if presence is requested.
I'm not sure that server_timestamp is the right name for this field,
but ultimately it should match the main presence API format.
Also link to it from the API documentation page,
other help pages, and the confirmation dialog for
muting a user.

This was accidentally removed in 27e4f5da92
as the initial idea was to have another parameter `stream_id`
for stream type messages instead of sending it in this `to` parameter.
Also fixed a description of `to` for `stream` type.
This commit modifies the user objects returned by 'GET /users',
'GET /users/me', 'GET /users/{user_id}' and 'GET /users/{email}'
endpoints to include role field.
We also include role field in the page_params['realm_users'] dict
and in the person object sent in (type="realm_user", op="add")
event.
This help mobile and terminal clients understand whether a server
restart changed API feature levels or not, which in turn determines
whether they will need to resynchronize their data.
Also add tests and documentation for this previously undocumented
event type.
Fixes: #18205.
These details clarify the roles of `message_id` and `message_ids`, and
should help a great deal in helping clients correctly implement this
critical API endpoint.
The order of the fields of the update_message event were previous
seemingly-arbitrary. This tries to more coherently order them:
1. Metadata
2. Stream
3. Topic
4. Content
Fixes#17795
In PR #17014, we added support for deactivate-own-user.
And while doing so, we first deactivated the client and
then reactivated it. But this implementation is a bit
hacky.
So, to fix this, we're now deactivating a test_user so that
we don't have to reactivate it. We did so by changing the value
of authentication_line.
As we want to keep endpoint code out of the
“test_curl_examples”, we changed the value of
authentication_line in `curl_param_value_generators.py`.
To work this out, we create a new global variable named
AUTHENTICATION_LINE in “curl_param_value_generators.py”
and change its value in function “deactivate_own_user” and
to use this change in “test_curl_examples,” we import
AUTHENTICATION_LINE.
AUTHENTICATION_LINE is of list data type because we want a
pointer to original mutable object so that changes made during
run time show across the module. Another way to do this is to change
the way we import variable, but that will be inconsistent to
the way we had in all other files.
To remove confusion between AUTHENTICATION_LINE and
authentication_line we renamed authentication_line
to default_authentication_line.
This extends the /json/typing endpoint to also accept
stream_id and topic. With this change, the requests
sent to /json/typing should have these:
* `to`: a list set to
- recipients for a PM
- stream_id for a stream message
* `topic`, in case of stream message
along with `op`(start or stop).
On receiving a request with stream_id and topic, we send
typing events to clients with stream_typing_notifications set
to True for all users subscribed to that stream.
This commit adds an API to `zproject/urls.py` to edit/update
the realm linkifier. Its helper function to update the
database is added in `zerver/lib/actions.py`.
`zulip.yaml` is documented accordingly as well, clearly
stating that this API updates one linkifier at a time.
The tests are added for the API and helper function which
updates the realm linkifier.
Fixes#10830.
Linkifier error message: `Filter not found` is
updated to `Linkifier not found.`.
Similarly, `filter_id` description is updated to:
`The ID of the linkifier that you want to remove.`,
renamed the term `filter` with `linkifier`, in `zulip.yaml`.
This prevents us from having to json encode every field in the POST
request to /realm/playgrounds, and keeps the client logic simpler
when adding a playground.
Organization admins can use this setting to restrict the maximum
rating of GIFs that will be retrieved from GIPHY. Also, there
is option to disable GIPHY too.
We had a mix of the two names, and "video call provider" both feels
more professional and more clear about precisely what it does.
We don't change the API fields, since it doesn't seem worth an API
migration.
In zulip.yaml, `pattern` and `url_format_string` are extracted
as a shared parameters.
This is done as a preparatory commit for `Add settings UI to edit
linkifiers`.
Related issue: #10830.
In "test_curl_examples.py" we find the functions that registered but
never called. To improve readablity, now we have the full
implementation in curl_param_value_generators, rather than inspecting
its fields from another module.
* This introduces a new event type `realm_linkifiers` and
a new key for the initial data fetch of the same name.
Newer clients will be expected to use these.
* Backwards compatibility is ensured by changing neither
the current event nor the /register key. The data which
these hold is the same as before, but internally, it is
generated by processing the `realm_linkifiers` data.
We send both the old and the new event types to clients
whenever the linkifiers are changed.
Older clients will simply ignore the new event type, and
vice versa.
* The `realm/filters:GET` endpoint (which returns tuples)
is currently used by none of the official Zulip clients.
This commit replaces it with `realm/linkifiers:GET` which
returns data in the new dictionary format.
TODO: Update the `get_realm_filters` method in the API
bindings, to hit this new URL instead of the old one.
* This also updates the webapp frontend to use the newer
events and keys.
Commit 4a3ad0d introduced some extra stream-level parameters
to the `realm` object. This commit extends that to add a
max_message_length paramter too in the same server_level.
Previously, you had to request the `stream` event type in order to get
the stream-level parameters; this was a bad design in part because the
`subscription` event type has similar data and is preferred by most
clients.
So we move these to the `realm` object. We also add the maximum topic
length, as an adjacent parameter.
While changing this, we also fix these to better match the names of
similar API parameters.
This fixes the API documentation tests following recent changes, but
isn't the right solution -- we probably want to change the API itself
to not require this strange JSON-encoding-of-a-string.
But this is necessary to have CI pass.
The comments explain in some detail, but basically we were displaying
the types for booleans incorrectly, and the types for strings in a
somewhat confusing fashion. Fix this with comments explaining the logic.
Using JSON dumping also results in our showing strings inside
quotation marks in our examples, which seems net helpful.
Thanks to ArunSankarKs for finding where we needed to change the
codebase.
Fixes#18021.
This commit adds backend code for passing can_invite_others_to_realm
field to clients using the fetch_initial_state_data in the page_params
object.
Though this field is not used by webapp as of now, but will be used
to fix a bug of incorreclty showing the invite users option in
settings overlay in the next commit.
We add moderators and full members option to invite_to_realm_policy
by using COMMON_POLICY_TYPES and use can_invite_others_to_realm helper
added in previous commit. This commit only does the backend work,
frontend work will be done in separate commit.
This commit replaces invite_by_admins_policy, which was a bool field,
with a new enum field invite_by_realm_policy.
Though the final goal is to add moderators and full members option
using COMMON_POLICY_TYPES, but this will be done in a separate
commit to make this easy for review.
We send the whole data set as a part of the event rather than
doing an add/remove operation for couple of reasons:
* This would make the client logic simpler.
* The playground data is small enough for us to not worry
about performance.
Tweaked both `fetch_initial_state_data` and `apply_events` to
handle the new playground event.
Tests added to validate the event matches the expected schema.
Documented realm_playgrounds sections inside /events and
/register to support our openapi validation system in test_events.
Tweaked other tests like test_event_system.py and test_home.py
to account for the new event being generated.
Lastly, documented the changes to the API endpoints in
api/changelog.md and bumped API_FEATURE_LEVEL.
Tweaked by tabbott to add an `id` field in RealmPlayground objects
sent to clients, which is essential to sending the API request to
remove one.
Similar to the previous commit, we have added a `do_*` function
which does the deletion from the DB. The next commit handles sending
the events when both adding and deleting a playground entry.
Added the openAPI format data to zulip.yaml for DELETE
/realm/playgrounds/{playground_id}. Also added python and curl
examples to remove-playground.md.
Tests added.
This endpoint will allow clients to create a playground entry
containing the name, pygments language and url_prefix for the
playground of their choice.
Introduced the `do_*` function in-charge of creating the entry in
the model. Handling the process of sending events which will be
done in a follow up commit.
Added the openAPI format data to zulip.yaml for POST
/realm/playgrounds. Also added python and curl examples for using
the endpoint in its markdown documented (add-playground.md).
Tests added.
Adds backend code for the mute users feature.
This is just infrastructure work (database
interactions, helpers, tests, events, API docs
etc) and does not involve any behavioral/semantic
aspects of muted users.
Adds POST and DELETE endpoints, to keep the
URL scheme mostly consistent in terms of `users/me`.
TODOs:
1. Add tests for exporting `zulip_muteduser` database table.
2. Add dedicated methods to python-zulip-api to be used
in place of the current `client.call_endpoint` implementation.
`call_on_each_event` now supports additional params other than
`event_type` and `narrow`; Ex: `all_public_streams` to fetch events
of all public streams.
Also add a bit of explanation of how this parameter works.

We use GIPHY web SDK to create popover containing GIFs in a
grid format. Simply clicking on the GIFs will insert the GIF in the compose
box.
We add GIPHY logo to compose box action icons which opens the GIPHY
picker popover containing GIFs with "Powered by GIPHY"
attribution.
In `validate_account_and_subdomain` we check
if user's realm is not deactivated. In case
of failure of this check, we raise our standard
JsonableError. While this works well in most
cases but it creates difficulties in handling
of users with deactivated realms for non-browser
clients.
So we register a new REALM_DEACTIVATED error
code so that clients can distinguish if error
is because of deactivated account. Following
these changes `validate_account_and_subdomain`
raises RealmDeactivatedError if user's realm
is deactivated.
This error is also documented in
`/api/rest-error-handling`.
Testing: I have mostly relied on automated
backend tests to test this.
Fixes#17763.

Partially addresses issue #17763.
This commit adds a new option of STREAM_POST_POLICY_MODERATORS
in stream_post_policy which will allow only realm admins and
moderators to post in that stream.
The current API documentation uses call_endpoint to upload a file;
since we've added a custom helper in python-zulip-api, we should
document that cleaner approach.
The STREAM_POST_POLICY_RESTRICT_NEW_MEMBERS option of stream_post_policy
was explained as "Only new members can post" in the api docs. It should
instead be "Only full members can post" and this commit fixes it.
The /events and /register endpoints were excluded from schema validations,
because they were earlier not completely documented. However, they can
now be added for proper checking. Removed them from excluded endpoints list
and fixed the documentation for /register and /events after the checking.
Fixes#17796.
* `op` (operation) field, added in f6fb88549f, was never intended for
`custom_profile_fields` event. This commit removes the `op` as it doesn't
have any use in the code.
* As a part of cleanup, this also eliminates the schema check warnings
for `custom_profile_fields` event, mentioned in #17568.
Currently, there was no markdown page for deactivate-own-user API
endpoint. Created deactivate-own-user.md for the API page and
created a new owner client in test-api to reactivate the client
deactivated during testing.
Also changed endpoint name from deactivate-my-account to
deactivate-own-user, for better consistency with other endpoints.
Fixes#16163.
The schema for unread_msgs was missing additionalProperties: false
that was causing tests to pass even with undocumented parameters
which were validated as an additional property. Set
additionalProperties to false and added documentation for missing
count variable.
Fixes#17728.
