There are a few outstanding issues that we expect to resolve beforce
including this in a release, but this is good checkpoint to merge.
This PR is a collaboration with Tim Abbott.
Fixes#716.
- Updated 260+ links from ".html" to ".md" to reduce the number of issues
reported about hyperlinks not working when viewing docs on Github.
- Removed temporary workaround that suppressed all warnings reported
by sphinx build for every link ending in ".html".
Details:
The recent upgrade to recommonmark==0.5.0 supports auto-converting
".md" links to ".html" so that the resulting HTML output is correct.
Notice that links pointing to a heading i.e. "../filename.html#heading",
were not updated because recommonmark does not auto-convert them.
These links do not generate build warnings and do not cause any issues.
However, there are about ~100 such links that might still get misreported
as broken links. This will be a follow-up issue.
Background:
docs: pip upgrade recommonmark and CommonMark #13013
docs: Allow .md links between doc pages #11719Fixes#11087.
Previously, we were hardcoding the domain s3.amazonaws.com. Given
that we already have an interface for configuring the host in
/etc/zulip/boto.cfg (which in turn, automatically configures boto), we
just need to actually use the value configured in boto for what S3
hostname to use.
We don't have tests for this new use case, in part because they're
likely annoying to write with `moto` and there hasn't been a huge
amount of demand for it. Since this doesn't regress existing S3
backend support, it seems worth merging.
We have lots of documentation for Zulip developers; but previously
didn't have a nice top-level page for Zulip server administrators to
learn how to manage patches to Zulip.
- Added warning block to dev docs using _templates/layout.html
- Removed copy-pasted warning from install.md and requirements.md
- Removed unreleased tag in docs/conf.py that's no longer used
Useful ref: https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/templating.htmlFixes#13056.
Previously, Google might take you to /latest rather than /stable, and
you might get information about the next release, not the current one.
Fixes#13056.
Apparently, the ordering matters.
This command now matches what we use for installing single-purpose
installations; I should have checked this directly.
One needs to explicitly request zulip::base, it appears. Ideally,
we'd just have every ruleset depend on zulip::base, but I seem to
recall Puppet didn't like your including the same module from multiple
places. Worth testing as a follow-up investigation.
This was missed because we use the zulip_ops rules internally, which
include zulip::base via zulip_ops::base.
This commit finishes adding end-to-end support for the install script
on Debian Buster (making it production ready). Some support for this
was already added in prior commits such as
99414e2d96.
We plan to revert the postgres hunks of this once we've built
tsearch_extras for our packagecloud archive.
Fixes#9828.
Outgoing email documentation should mention that the SMTP server needs
to allow emails originating from ZULIP_ADMINISTRATOR as well as the
noreply email addresses; previously, one would typically find this out
using the test tool, which was not ideal.
Substantially tweaked by tabbott for organization and content.
This replaces the two custom Google authentication backends originally
written in 2012 with using the shared python-social-auth codebase that
we already use for the GitHub authentication backend. These are:
* GoogleMobileOauth2Backend, the ancient code path for mobile
authentication last used by the EOL original Zulip Android app.
* The `finish_google_oauth2` code path in zerver/views/auth.py, which
was the webapp (and modern mobile app) Google authentication code
path.
This change doesn't fix any known bugs; its main benefit is that we
get to remove hundreds of lines of security-sensitive semi-duplicated
code, replacing it with a widely trusted, high quality third-party
library.
We had an organization with engineers for whom English was not their
native language think they needed to go through this laborious
process, which was definitely counterproductive for them.
It's not actually a reasonable experience to use Zulip without working
full-text search, so we should more strongly direct folks to not do
it.
Fixes#12724.
This was only used in Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty.
Removing this also finally lets us simplify our security model
discussion of uploaded files.

We only use it in this one place, so a comment right here seems the
most discoverable place to put it. If we started using it more...
probably the section in docs/documentation/overview.md about the
dev/sysadmin docs system should split off into a new file, and this
info would become a subsection there.
The `AUTH_LDAP_ALWAYS_UPDATE_USER` is `True` by default, and this would sync the
attributes defined in the `AUTH_LDAP_USER_ATTR_MAP` to the user profile. But,
the default code in `django-auth-ldap` would work correctly only for `full_name`
field. This commit disables the setting by default, in favour of using the
`sync_ldap_user_data` script as a cron job.
The numbers are in parens to avoid the markdown processor interpreting them
as numbers -- I couldn't get the automatic numbering to work out with the
paragraph breaks and so on, and this is probably good enough for now.
We need to disable "CREATE EXTENSION pgroonga" in zulip-puppet-apply
by creating /usr/share/postgresql/10/pgroonga_setup.sql.applied.
Because PostgreSQL 10 isn't running in this case. If PostgreSQL 10
isn't running, we can't run "CREATE EXTENSION pgroonga".
We can't use pg_upgrade with PGroonga. PGroonga's install SQL
https://github.com/pgroonga/pgroonga/blob/master/data/pgroonga.sql has
conditions to support multiple PostgreSQL versions. So it's not safe
to use pg_upgrade. pg_upgrade copies metadata for PostgreSQL 9.5 to
PostgreSQL 10. We need to use pg_dump and pg_restore to upgrade
PGroonga correctly for PostgreSQL 10.
It's not required on Ubuntu Xenial (having been replaced by systemd)
and causes problems when installing/upgrading other packages; this
change matches a similar block of code in our installer.
The comment explains this in more detail, but basically one previously
needed the `--from-git` option to `upgrade-zulip-stage-2` if one had
last installed/upgraded from Git, and not that option otherwise, which
would have forced us to make the OS upgrade documentation much more
complicated than it needed to be.
