This new setting controls whether or not users are allowed to see the
edit history in a Zulip organization. It controls access through 2
key mechanisms:
* For long-ago edited messages, get_messages removes the edit history
content from messages it sends to clients.
* For newly edited messages, clients are responsible for checking the
setting and not saving the edit history data. Since the webapp was
the only client displaying it before this change, this just required
some changes in message_events.js.
Significantly modified by tabbott to fix some logic bugs and add a
test.
Rationale: For the more off-to-the-side edit history view, changes
are easier to digest by highlighting deleted content in red followed
immediately by added and changed content in green.
TODO: Toggle for showing the edited messages without highlighting;
deleted content would not be shown in this view.
This test fails on self.assertTrue(delay < 0.001 * num_ids, error_msg)
randomly. This commit adds debug code to see what the real values of
paramters are.
To get accurate count of the queries, we should make sure that
caches don't come into play. If we count queries while caches are
filled, we will get a lower count. Caches are not supposed to be
persistent, so our test can also fail if cache is invalidated
during the course of the unit test.
This commit solves the problem with Stream cache. This cache comes
into play when we use `get_stream` function. If cache is valid,
we will not issue queries to Stream and Recipient table. I think
the problem was one of those rare occasions when the Stream cache
got invalidated during the course of the test, due to which query
count was increased by 2. After this commit, we intentially invalidate
the Stream cache.
This makes it possible for Zulip administrators to delete messages.
This is primarily intended for use in deleting early test messages,
but it can solve other problems as well.
Later we'll want to play with the permissions model for this, but for
now, the goal is just to integrate the feature.
Note that it saves the deleted messages for some time using the same
approach as Zulip's message retention policy feature.
Fixes#135.
This fixes most cases where we were assigning a user to
the var email and then calling get_user_profile_by_email with
that var.
(This was fixed mostly with a script.)
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 an issue with a nondeterministic number of database queries
being used in fetching bulk messages from the database. The source of
the problem was that we were fetching _all_ messages, not just the 600
that had been created by the test, and thus if the set of streams
present in messages in the test fixtures (which is random) changes,
the number of streams used (and thus number of queries) would change.
Change applies to both subdomains and non-subdomains case, though we use
just the EXTERNAL_HOST in the non-subdomains case if there is only 1 realm.
Fixes#3903.
This makes it super easy for frontend code using this view code to
produce a nice display of the history.
This also fixes an off-by-one error with the timestamps.
Based on work by Kartik Maji in #1204.
This has a few significant changes from the original version:
* We correctly handle filling in data for topic edits
* Has a complete test suite verifying correctness of the logic
* Currently, it doesn't include a special "start" entry
Things we may want to further change include:
* Adding a special "start" entry.
* Reversing the order of the history data returned for clarity.
I dug into why we never did this before, and it turns out we did, but
using `$.trim()` (which removes leading whitespace as well!). When
removing the `$.trim()` usage.
Fixes#3294.
