The support for bullseye was added in #17951
but it was not documented as bullseye was
frozen and did not have proper configuration
files, hence wasn't documented.
Since now bullseye is released as a stable
version, it's support can be documented.
We previously used `zulip-puppet-apply` with a custom config file,
with an updated PostgreSQL version but more limited set of
`puppet_classes`, to pre-create the basic settings for the new cluster
before running `pg_upgradecluster`.
Unfortunately, the supervisor config uses `purge => true` to remove
all SUPERVISOR configuration files that are not included in the puppet
configuration; this leads to it removing all other supervisor
processes during the upgrade, only to add them back and start them
during the second `zulip-puppet-apply`.
It also leads to `process-fts-updates` not being started after the
upgrade completes; this is the one supervisor config file which was
not removed and re-added, and thus the one that is not re-started due
to having been re-added. This was not detected in CI because CI added
a `start-server` command which was not in the upgrade documentation.
Set a custom facter fact that prevents the `purge` behaviour of the
supervisor configuration. We want to preserve that behaviour in
general, and using `zulip-puppet-apply` continues to be the best way
to pre-set-up the PostgreSQL configuration -- but we wish to avoid
that behaviour when we know we are applying a subset of the puppet
classes.
Since supervisor configs are no longer removed and re-added, this
requires an explicit start-server step in the instructions after the
upgrades complete. This brings the documentation into alignment with
what CI is testing.
Recommonmark is no longer maintained, and MyST-Parser is much more
complete.

The auth attempt rate limit is quite low (on purpose), so this can be a
common scenario where a user asks their admin to reset the limit instead
of waiting. We should provide a tool for administrators to handle such
requests without fiddling around with code in manage.py shell.
These checks suffer from a couple notable problems:
- They are only enabled on staging hosts -- where they should never
be run. Since ef6d0ec5ca, these supervisor processes are only
run on one host, and never on the staging host.
- They run as the `nagios` user, which does not have appropriate
permissions, and thus the checks always fail. Specifically,
`nagios` does not have permissions to run `supervisorctl`, since
the socket is owned by the `zulip` user, and mode 0700; and the
`nagios` user does not have permission to access Zulip secrets to
run `./manage.py print_email_delivery_backlog`.
Rather than rewrite these checks to run on a cron as zulip, and check
those file contents as the nagios user, drop these checks -- they can
be rewritten at a later point, or replaced with Prometheus alerting,
and currently serve only to cause always-failing Nagios checks, which
normalizes alert failures.
Leave the files installed if they currently exist, rather than
cluttering puppet with `ensure => absent`; they do no harm if they are
left installed.
This commit replaces add_emoji_by_admins_only with
add_custom_emoji_policy in new_feature_tutorial.md
as the old boolean setting is replaced by a new
integer setting.
Recently, the need for individual Markdown templates for
every endpoint's OpenAPI page was removed, as they are now
auto-generated from OpenAPI data. Further, as a part of this
migration, several new fields and Markdown extensions were added.
This commit updates the documentation to reflect the changes that
have occured as a result of the migration.
With various edits by tabbott to clarify or simplify the documentation.
`request.client` is no longer valid since the ZulipRequestNotes change.
This update the documentation to reflect that. And it also makes it
recommend `check_send_webhook_message` in favor of
`check_send_stream_message`.
Strictly speaking, this sentence is talking about the IdP configuration,
while the backend is just GenericOpenIdConnectBackend, so the new
phrasing is more correct.
The script is added to upgrade steps for 20.04 and Buster because
those are the upgrades that cross glibc 2.28, which is most
problematic. It will also be called out in the upgrade notes, to
catch those that have already done that upgrade.
Previously, one needed to specifying all the HTTP status
codes that we want to render along with the operation,
but the primary use case just needs the responses of
all the status codes, and not just one.
This commit modifies the Markdown extension to render
all the responses of all status codes of a specified
operation in a loop.
Now that we are starting to link this pages from the landing page's
top navigation, it makes sense to have proper backlinks to the
homepage so that there is some continuity when the user clicks on
a link that takes them to a ReadTheDocs page from the main website.
I heard with a new contributor that they were really confused by this
page, and I believe the key problem was that we didn't define the
somewhat technical term "linter".
We extracted a bunch of code into the common notification_data.py
module, with a data class managing a lot of the logic; this updates
the documentation to cover that.
Fixes#17277.
The main limitation of this implementation is that the sync happens if
the user authing already exists. This means that a new user going
through the sign up flow will not have their custom fields synced upon
finishing it. The fields will get synced on their consecutive log in via
SAML in the future. This can be addressed in the future by moving the
syncing code further down the codepaths to login_or_register_remote_user
and plumbing the data through to the user creation process.
We detail that limitation in the documentation.
Using puppet modules from the puppet forge judiciously will allow us
to simplify the configuration somewhat; this specifically pulls in the
stdlib module, which we were already using parts of.
The old name `push_notify_user_ids` was misleading, because
it does not contain user ids which should be notified for
the current message, but rather user ids who have the online
push notifications setting enabled.
When the Tornado server is restarted during an upgrade, if
server has old events with the `push_notify_user_ids` fields,
the server will throw error after this rename. Hence, we need
to explicitly handle such cases while processing the event.
Updated the install documentation to include the explanation of the
two new install options `--postgresql-database-name` and
`--postgresql-database-user`.
This makes it parallel with deliver_scheduled_messages, and clarifies
that it is not used for simply sending outgoing emails (e.g. the
`email_senders` queue).
This also renames the supervisor job to match.
Make it easier to locate docs for how to build an integration by adding
a link to the docs at the top of the docs on how to document an
integration.
Tweaked by tabbott to adjust the whole first paragraph and make the
link more contextual.
Thumbor and tc-aws have been dragging their feet on Python 3 support
for years, and even the alphas and unofficial forks we’ve been running
don’t seem to be maintained anymore. Depending on these projects is
no longer viable for us.

* Move the extended documentation of code blocks to a separate page.
* Merge "code playgrounds" documentation to be a section of that page.
* Document copy widget on code blocks.
* This commit changes how we refer to "```python" type syntax for code
blocks. Instead of being called a syntax highlighting label, this is
now referred to as a "language tag", since it serves both syntax
highlighting and playgrounds.
* Remap all the links.
* Advertise this new page in various places that previously did not have a link.
This new pages accomplishes several interrelated things:
* Documents that Zulip Cloud runs master and how that works.
* Documents policies on how long client apps are expected to support
old releases in our compatibility matrix.
* Removes the 3-years-stale roadmap article.
* Provides a central place to talk about different versions in Zulip.
* Provides a better place to link to from our "you need to upgrade" nag.
This content is not intended to be final, but should be finalized in

Fixes#18322.
This page is documentation for our participation in GSoD, which was a
few years ago. We can resurrect it if we participate in the program
again, so there's no need to keep it as a live page.
Requesting external images is a privacy risk, so route all external
images through Camo.
Tweaked by tabbott for better test coverage, more comments, and to fix
bugs.
This allows access to be more configurable than just setting one
attribute. This can be configured by setting the setting
AUTH_LDAP_ADVANCED_REALM_ACCESS_CONTROL.
This hits the unauthenticated Github API to get the list of tags,
which is rate-limited to 60 requests per hour. This means that the
tool can only be run 60 times per hour before it starts to exit with
errors, but that seems like a reasonable limit for the moment.
Update `docs/production/install.md` and
`docs/production/deployment.md` to document the install flags that can
be used as part of the installer more clearly.
Fixes#18122.
