This removes a false-positive ReDoS, since the input is always
checked-in code. It also incidentally refactors to make the regexes
be more explicit about the values they expect, and removes unnecessary
capturing groups.
It removes an optional parenthesized status code for fixtures,
unnecessary since 981e4f8946, as well as
optional key-value language options, unnecessary since
a2be9a0e2d.
Thank you to @erik-krogh and @yoff for bringing this to our attention.
These were added at some point in the past, but were not complete, and
it makes sense to document the current feature level as and when they
become available, since clients should not use the drafts endpoints on
older feature levels.
This API change removes unnecessary complexity from a client that
wants to change a user's personal settings, and also saves developers
from needing to make decisions about what sort of setting something is
at the API level.
We preserve the old settings endpoints as mapping to the same function
as the new one for backwards-compatibility. We delete the
documentation for the old endpoints, though the documentation for the
merged /settings endpoint mentions how to use the old endpoints when
needed.
We migrate all backend tests to the new endpoints, except for
individual tests for each legacy endpoint to verify they still work.

This was used by the old native Zulip Android app
(zulip/zulip-android). That app has been undeveloped for enough years
that we believe it no longer functions; as a result, there's no reason
to keep a prototype API endpoint for it (that we believe never worked).
This endpoint was needed by the ancient pre-electron desktop app
written in QT; we removed support for that in practice a long time
ago, and even the custom error messages for it in
5a22e73cc6.
So we can delete this endpoint as well.
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.
This is part of our general process of replacing emails, which are not
static with time, with user_ids when referring to users in the API.
We still keep the `email` reference option, since it can be useful for
linking third-party applications to Zulip on an intranet that might
have a user's corporate email handy and not want to do the extra round
trip to lookup the user.
The name of the parameter, user_id_or_email, was chosen to to make it
clear that the default/preferred option is user_id.
Fixes#14304.
Add new rest api endpoint GET users/{email} for looking up a user by
email, which is useful especially for corporate API applications that
might already have a user's email address.
Fixes#14302.
Extracting a section for presence endpoints and using path() rather
than re_path() results in a much cleaner implementation of this
concept.
This eliminates the last case where test_openapi couldn't correctly
match an endpoint documentation with the OpenAPI definitions for it.
This renames 'group_id' to 'user_group_id' in the api docs to remove
the naming mismatch between the url config and the docs and eventually
remove the 'user_groups' endpoints from 'pending_endpoints' in
test_openapi.py.
Change the condition for allowing failed validation to the condition
that `if the test fails, response status code begins with 4`. Also
add `intentionally_undocumented` argument in `validate_request` for
allowing passing of tests which return `200` responses but fail
validation due to some intentionally undocumented feature in
OpenAPI specification.
Our previous OpenAPI schema validator that we implemented ourselves
was useful training wheels for our understanding OpenAPI properly, and
was mostly correct. But given that we've finally reached the point
where our OpenAPI file accurately describes the API, it makes sense to
switch to use an official OpenAPI validator. We lose some ability to
do exclude rules for particular elements, but those were primarily
important for us when we had a lot of them.
As part of this change, we need to add `additionalProperties: false`
for all of our dictonaries/objects where we've documented every
parameter; otherwise the OpenAPI schema checker won't know that we
expect every parameter to be documented.
The current description of object and array parameters in
zulip.yaml is wrong and renders incorrect requests on using OpenAPI
tools such as SwaggerIO, etc. Fix it by encoding it correctly and
changing tests accordingly.
Fixes#14380.
There is still some miscellaneous cleanup that
has to happen for things like analytics queries
and dead code in node tests, but this should
remove the main use of pointers in the backend.
(We will also still need to drop the DB field.)
We had a bug in `validate_against_openapi_schema` that prevented it
from correctly inspecting nested arrays.
Fix the bug and address all the exceptions, either via
EXCLUDE_PROPERTIES or fixing them when simple. Also add a test case
for nested verification.
This adds a powerful end-to-end test for Zulip's API documentation:
For every documented API endpoint (with a few declared exceptions that
we hope to remove), we verify that every API response received by our
extensive backend test suite matches the declared schema.
This is a critical step towards being able to have complete, high
quality API documentation.
Fixes#15340.
