The title in li.top_left_private_messages applies the title
to private-container too. This causes to show "Private message"
title to private message elements. To fix this, the title is
placed at div.private_messages_header.
The "Add streams" button text made users think this was what you needed to create
additional streams in the organization. While that's correct for the first user/organization
administrator, it's not correct for most other users.
The email subject used to be translated to the language of
the user who requested the sponsorship. This was a bug since
the recipient of the emails are Zulip's support staff and
not the user who requested the sponsorship.
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.
TextField is used to allow users to set long stream + topic narrow
names in the urls.
We currently restrict users to only set "all_messages" and
"recent_topics" as narrows.
This commit achieves 3 things:
* Removes recent topics as the default view which loads when
hash is empty.
* Loads default_view when hash is empty.
* Loads default_view on pressing escape key when it is unhandled by
other present UI elements.
NOTE: After this commit loading zulip with an empty hash will
automatically set hash to default_view. Ideally, we'd just display
the default view without a hash, but that involves extra complexity.
One exception is when user is trying to load an overlay directly,
i.e. zulip is loaded with an overlay hash. In this case,
we render recent topics is background irrespective of default_view.
We consider this last detail to be a bug not important enough to block
adding this setting.
Since All messages narrow is no longer home page for webapp,
we change its icon to align-left which also shows a concept of
interleaved topics / messages.
Go to Recent Topics on "#", no hash and "#recent_topics".
Go to Recent Topics as the last destination for escape key.
Map `a` key to All messages and change its hash to
`#all_messages`.
Recent Topics is no longer an overlay now, but note that it is
also not a typical messages narrow. It can reside between
an overlay and a Filter in the sense that it is dispalyed as
a typical Filter narrow but has properties of an Overlay.
Compose box is not visible in this view as it will be confusing
to many users and hence compose shortcuts have also been disabled.
Keyboard shortcuts that apply on messages have also been disabled.
The remaining shortcuts that apply to a narrow are still accessible
here.
The description of request parameter of update-subscription-settings was
wrongly pasted in yaml and wasn't completely removed from the md file.
Made appropriate fixes in yaml and md file.
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.
The responses for the API weren't being rendered from yaml, and were
incorrectly formatted in yaml. The parameters also weren't completely
included in yaml and needed to be moved. Made appropriate fixes in
yaml and markdown file.
The 100 invite per day restriction is only for the free plan. Also,
the value 100 is configurable using
settings.INVITES_DEFAULT_REALM_DAILY_MAX. On top of this, newly
created realms on free plan combined can only send
INVITES_NEW_REALM_LIMIT_DAYS number of invites. So it's better not
to hardcode 100 in the doc.
We use 1199px for hiding right column.
The components changed here were tested to be working fine.
This change is not likely to introduce any regression as the
calculations in the components here were not dependent upon the
breakpoint being at 1165px.
We eliminate some redundant checks.
We also consistently provide a `subscribers` field
in our stream data with `[]`, even if our users
can't access subscribers. We therefore bump
the API version and tweak the docs. (See further
down for a detailed justification of the change.)
Even though it is sometimes fine to have redundant code
that is defensive in nature, some upcoming changes are gonna
move subscriber-related logic out of build_stream_dict_for_sub
for certain codepaths as part of our effort to streamline
the payload for subscribers within page_params.
So we can't rely on the code that I removed here
inside of build_stream_dict_for_sub.
Anyway, it makes more sense to do these checks explicitly
in the validate function.
The code in build_stream_dict_for_sub was almost effectively
a noop, since the validation function was already preventing
us from getting subscriber info. The only difference it
made was sometimes converting `[]` to `None`, and then
subsequently omitting the subscribers field.
Neither ZT nor the webapp make any distinction between
`[]` or <missing key> for the `subscribers` data in
`page_params`.
The webapp has had this code for a long time (and now
equivalent code elsewhere in this PR):
if (!Object.prototype.hasOwnProperty.call(sub, "subscribers")) {
sub.subscribers = new LazySet([]);
}
The webapp calculates access based on booleans, anyway:
sub.can_access_subscribers =
page_params.is_admin || sub.subscribed ||
(!page_params.is_guest && !sub.invite_only);
And ZT would choke if `subscribers` were missing, except that
it never gets to the relevant code due to other checks:
def get_other_subscribers_in_stream(<snip>):
assert stream_id is not None or stream_name is not None
if stream_id:
assert self.is_user_subscribed_to_stream(stream_id)
return [sub
for sub in self.stream_dict[stream_id]['subscribers']
if sub != self.user_id]
else:
return [sub
for _, stream in self.stream_dict.items()
for sub in stream['subscribers']
if stream['name'] == stream_name
if sub != self.user_id]
You could make a semantic argument that we should prefer
<missing key> to `[]` when subscribers aren't even available, but
we have precedent from the way that `bulk_get_subscriber_user_ids`
has traditionally populated its result:
result: Dict[int, List[int]] =
{stream["id"]: [] for stream in stream_dicts}
If we changed `stream_dicts` to `target_stream_dicts` we
would faciliate a move toward `None`, but it would just cause
headaches for other server code as well as the frontends
(which, to reiterate, already prefer the empty array
for convenience).
As of Feb 15th 2019, Hipchat Cloud and Stride
have reached End Of Life and are no longer
supported by Atlassian. Since it is almost 2 years
now we can remove the migration guides.
Allowing any admins to create arbitrary users is not ideal because it
can lead to abuse issues. We should require something stronger that
requires the server operator's approval and thus we add a new
can_create_users permission.
If a user visits a realm which has been deactivated and it's
deactivated_redirect field is set, we should have a message telling the
user that the realm has moved to the deactivated_redirect url.

This commit moves the wildcard mentions documentation to a top-level page.
Edited by tabbott to deduplicate with the existing docs, and add cross-links.
Updated create-bot-construct-url-indented.md file with
guidelines on how to URL-encode stream name and topic
name. The hyperlink added will solve the issue for those
who use emoji in stream name or topic name.
Tweaked by tabbott to edit the copy and update the non-indented
version as well.
Fixes#16430.
Add `data-simplebar` attribrute to `preview_message_area` div in
`templates/zerver/app/compose.html`.
This will cause preview_message_area div to use simplebar scrollbar
instead of normal scrollbar.
Fixes#16468.
We add a new wildcard_mention_policy setting to handle wildcard
mentions in large streams, with a wide range of policies available to
organizations.
We set the default to the safe option for preventing accidental spam:
only stream administrators being able to use wildcard mentions in
large streams.
This reverts commit 5275d49f05
(effectively), which created more problems than it solves. #8484 is
not a bug: a newline can be included literally with no escaping within
POSIX quotes. Meanwhile, $"" is a bashism, and not even the correct
bashism: it translates strings using the LC_MESSAGES catalog. If the
user wants to do something complicated, they can consult the
documentation for their shell.

The Formatting button that opens our Markdown help popover previously
had an "A" as its icon (the Font Awesome icon for font). This commit
changes the link to spell out "Help" to make it more discoverable.
Now that they are tab accessible, we should order them by importance.
Previously the order was:
1. Add emoji
2. Formatting
3. Attach files
4. Add video call
5. Preview
6. Drafts
This commit changes the order to:
1. Attach files
2. Preview
3. Add video call
4. Add emoji
5. Drafts
6. Formatting
The "Add emoji" button is moved back because emojis can be more
conveniently entered using the typeahead triggered with ":" or the
emoticon conversions.
We previously used to to redirect to config error page with
a different URL. This commit renders config error in the same
URL where configuration error is encountered. This way when
conifguration error is fixed the user can refresh to continue
normally or go back to login page from the link provided to
choose any other backend auth.
Also moved those URLs to dev_urls.py so that they can be easily
accessed to work on styling etc.
In tests, removed some of the asserts checking status code to be 200
as the function `assert_in_success_response` does that check.
Fixes#16284.
Most of the work for this was done when we implemented correct
behavior for guest users, since they treat public streams like private
streams anyway.
The general method involves moving the messages to the new stream with
special care of UserMessage.
We delete UserMessages for subs who are losing access to the message.
For private streams with protected history, we also create UserMessage
elements for users who are not present in the old stream, since that's
important for those users to access the moved messages.
Any exception is an "unexpected event", which means talking about
having an "unexpected event logger" or "unexpected event exception" is
confusing. As the error message in `exceptions.py` already explains,
this is about an _unsupported_ event type.
This also switches the path that these exceptions are written to,
accordingly.
8e10ab282a moved UnexpectedWebhookEventType into
`zerver.lib.exceptions`, but left the import into
`zserver.lib.webhooks.common` so that webhooks could continue to
import the exception from there.
This clutters things and adds complexity; there is no compelling
reason that the exception's source of truth should not move alongside
all other exceptions.
This commit fixes examples in "400" response for deactivating user
endpoints to have msg as "Cannot deactivate the last organization
owner" instead of "Cannot deactivate the last organization
administrator".
We had already removed the restriction on deactivating last admin
and added it for last owner, while adding owner role.
Improve OpenAPI documentation of /zulip-outgoing-webhook by moving
data and making appropriate additions from its couterpart in the
/outgoing-webhook docs. Then remove the redundant documentation
from the doc and add command to render OpenAPI documetation. Also
add a test to outgoing_webhooks_interface.py to ensure that OpenAPI
documentation is correct.
Fixes#16203.
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.
`update_message_flags` events used `operation` instead of `op`, the
latter being the standard field used in other events. So add `op`
field to `update_message_flags` and mark `operation` as deprecated,
so that it can be removed later.
For most cases you don't need to override `get_body`,
and for non-trivial cases, there's really no set pattern.
(It would be nice if we didn't default to json extensions
and just forced folks to be explicit about file extensions,
which would remove a whole class of `get_body` overrides.)
Not all webhook payloads are json, so send_json_payload was a
bit misleading.
In passing I also remove "bytes" from the Union type for
"payload" parameter.
Almost all webhook tests use this helper, except a few
webhooks that write to private streams.
Being concise is important here, and the name
`self.send_and_test_stream_message` always confused
me, since it sounds you're sending a stream message,
and it leaves out the webhook piece.
We should consider renaming `send_and_test_private_message`
to something like `check_webhook_private`, but I couldn't
decide on a great name, and it's very rarely used. So
for now I just made sure the docstrings of the two
sibling functions reference each other.
This commit adds "role" field to the Subscription objects passed to
clients. This is important preparation for being able to work on the
frontend for this feature.
This restores the Tab + Enter shortcut to send.
We are floating the send button to the right so that it still looks like
before. Instead of moving the button we could have also given every
message control button a tabindex, but these would be cumbersome to
maintain.
Tweaked by tabbott to add a comment recording the reasoning behind
the somewhat unusual CSS here.
Part of #15910.
Previously the emoji picker, the formatting help, the button to attach
files, the video call button, the Drafts button and the Press Enter to
send checkbox were all inaccessible from the keyboard.
This does break the Tab + Enter workflow for sending messages, which is
fixed in the next commit by moving the Send button to be the first
element after the textarea.
Part of #15910.
Apparently, we were incorrectly using constants for title/description
rather than the nice non-constant values from og:title and
og:description in our meta tags.
This adds 'user_id' to the simple success response for 'POST /users'
api endpoint, to make it convenient for API clients to get details
about users they just created. Appropriate changes have been made in
the docs and test_users.py.
Fixes#16072.
Prior to commit eb4a2b9d4e the center
area of the navbar was based on a structure that appended crumbs or
"tabs" as <li>s, forming a tab_bar and a tab_list.
However, in eb4a2b9d4e we apply a new
style and structure to the navbar which lets go of the convention of
tabs. Hence, we'd like to purge the tab_bar and tab_list labels from
our code base.
We purged tab_list in 1267caf5009118875f47fdafe312880af08024e1.
This commit purges tab_bar, it includes:
- A blanket search and replace of tab_bar with message_view_header.
- Splitting a single line comment in
tab_bar.js / message_view_header.js.
- The renaming of tab_bar.js to message_view_header.js.
- The renaming of tab_bar.hbs to message_view_header.hbs.
- A blanket search and replace of tab_data with
message_view_header_data.
- Replacing the single occurrence of tabbar with message_view_header
(it was within a comment.)
For all buttons in the compose box, `href="#"` is replaced
by "tabindex=0" so that the buttons are still focusable.
This change also fixes a bug that caused the Formatting
button to redirect to All messages.
Previously the title for all pages of the user and API documentation was
just "Zulip", which does not only bad for UX but also for accessibility.
We were already extracting the title from the Markdown for the og:title
tag, so we just need to set the <title> tag.
Since our documentation fetches pages with Ajax if you have JavaScript
enabled, we also need to save the titles in the article cache.
Part of #15948.
The apple developer webapp consistently refers this App ID. So,
this clears any confusion that can occur.
Since python social auth only requires us to include App ID in
_AUDIENCE(a list), we do that in computed settings making it easier for
server admin and we make it much clear by having it set to
APP_ID instead of BUNDLE_ID.
Improved markup of help-text.
Showing Email as plain-text instead of disabled input.
Changed page heading to 'Create your organization' in realm creation form
and 'Create your account' in normal signup form.
Grouped org settings and user settings with fieldsets.
Reduced space between Password field and Password strength bar.
Also, updated the corresponding test cases.
Partially Fixes: #15750.
Three reasons:
1. The sliding was disorienting.
2. The collapsing disallowed searching for other pages with Ctrl+F.
3. The collapsing mechanism wasn't accessible (not usable with the
keyboard / no ARIA tags).
Tweaked by tabbott to center the left sidebar on the selected page.
Part of #15948.
I'm not sure how this got added; it seems to have happened in a visual
redesign of the /features page. Certainly the claim should only have
been added after the work it described was done, and it has not.
The comments within update_message_backend function of views/message_edit.py
indicates 4 types of permissions which all edit a message. The 4th of these
indicates that a message is editable if the realm allows topic edits. This
was previously missing from the docs and is now added.

Zulip converts :) to the 1F642 Unicode emoji and promotes the same emoji
in the popular section of the emoji picker.
Previously Zulip has labeled 1F642 as "slight smile". While that name
conforms to the Unicode standard (which describes the code point as
SLIGHTLY SMILING FACE), it didn't match our use case of the emoji.
If a user types :) or selects the first smile in the emoji picker they
probably mean to express a regular "smile" and not a "slight smile",
which raises the question why they are only smiling slightly.
This commit relabels 1F642 as 😄 and our previous 😄 263A as
:smiling_face:. Note that 263A looks different in our three supported
emoji sets, so it is not suited to be our "default smile".
This change does not require a migration since our emoji system stores
both unicode points and names and handles name changes transparently.
Zulip Desktop version 5.3.0 only supported adding custom certificates
inside the application. Starting in version 5.4.0, it also supports
reading from the system certificate store; in the next release (likely
5.5.0) the support for the internal store will be removed.
Document the change, and add explicit instructions on how to add
certificates into the system store on each of the operating systems.

When you post to /json/users, we no longer
require or look at the short_name parameter,
since we don't use it in any meaningful way.
An upcoming commit will eliminate it from the
database.
Prior to commit eb4a2b9d4e the center
area of the navbar was based on a structure that appended crumbs or
"tabs" as <li>s, forming a tab_bar and a tab_list.
However, in eb4a2b9d4e we apply a new
style and structure to the navbar which lets go of the convention of
tabs. Hence, we'd like to purge the tab_bar and tab_list labels from
our code base. This commit pushes us towards that goal.
Previously, this element was part of both searchbox and
searchbox_legacy of which, only one would render based on the flag on
search pills. This wasn't great because:
* it made it likely that someone would change only one of the two and
unintentionally introduce regressions.
* it meant that search_icon selectors within the searchbox would mess
with the search_icon elements within the tab_bar, leading us to rely
on messy CSS overriding.
Since there doesn't seem to be a strong reason to have this be the way
it previously was, this commit extracts "#tab_bar".
It's worth keeping in mind that we use the "#tab_bar" element as an
anchor to append the #tab_list onto.
This particular commit has been a long time coming. For reference,
!avatar(email) was an undocumented syntax that simply rendered an
inline 50px avatar for a user in a message, essentially allowing
you to create a user pill like:
`!avatar(alice@example.com) Alice: hey!`
---
Reimplementation
If we decide to reimplement this or a similar feature in the future,
we could use something like `<avatar:userid>` syntax which is more
in line with creating links in markdown. Even then, it would not be
a good idea to add this instead of supporting inline images directly.
Since any usecases of such a syntax are in automation, we do not need
to make it userfriendly and something like the following is a better
implementation that doesn't need a custom syntax:
`![avatar for Alice](/avatar/1234?s=50) Alice: hey!`
---
History
We initially added this syntax back in 2012 and it was 'deprecated'
from the get go. Here's what the original commit had to say about
the new syntax:
> We'll use this internally for the commit bot. We might eventually
> disable it for external users.
We eventually did start using this for our github integrations in 2013
but since then, those integrations have been neglected in favor of
our GitHub webhooks which do not use this syntax.
When we copied `!gravatar` to add the `!avatar` syntax, we also noted
that we want to deprecate the `!gravatar` syntax entirely - in 2013!
Since then, we haven't advertised either of these syntaxes anywhere
in our docs, and the only two places where this syntax remains is
our game bots that could easily do without these, and the git commit
integration that we have deprecated anyway.
We do not have any evidence of someone asking about this syntax on
chat.zulip.org when developing an integration and rightfully so- only
the people who work on Zulip (and specifically, markdown) are likely
to stumble upon it and try it out.
This is also the only peice of code due to which we had to look up
emails -> userid mapping in our backend markdown. By removing this,
we entirely remove the backend markdown's dependency on user emails
to render messages.

This commits adds the steps for configuring message retention policy
for an organization and for individual streams in message retention
policy docs.
Fixes#15495.
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 send user_id of the referrer instead of email in the invites dict.
Sending user_ids is more robust, as those are an immutable reference
to a user, rather than something that can change with time.
Updates to the webapp UI to display the inviters for more convenient
inspection will come in a future commit.
Change variable `name` to `date_sent` as `name` actually stores
the date sent. Also change the data types of `name` and `create_time`
to integer. As they actually have empty decimal value.
* Reordered the settings relevant without stream creation to the top.
* Removed useless/misleading defaults for optional parameters.
* Clarified description of the announce and authorization_errors_fatal settings.
* Clarified that `invite_only` only applies for stream creation.
(It's annoying to do so for its friends because they are including
common description content and OpenAPI doesn't have a way to have
extra content in a place you included something)
Fixes#14705.
After some discussion, everyone seems to agree that 3.0 is the more
appropriate version number for our next major release. This updates
our documentation to reflect that we'll be using 3.0 as our next major
release.
Also, `send_message` example is altered to send a message to the
stream 'social' to avoid getting a "first_message_id: null"
in the response for `get_subscriptions` example, that caused
`validate_against_openapi_schema` to throw an error.
With this implementation of the feature of the automatic theme
detection, we make the following changes in the backend, frontend and
documentation.
This replaces the previous night_mode boolean with an enum, with the
default value being to use the prefers-color-scheme feature of the
operating system to determine which theme to use.

We can now invite new users as realm owners. We restrict only
owners to invite new users as owners both for single invite
and multiuse invite link. Also, only owners can revoke or resend
owner invitations.
Two things were broken here:
* we were using name(s) instead of id(s)
* we were always sending lists that only
had one element
Now we just send "stream_id" instead of "subscriptions".
If anything, we should start sending a list of users
instead of a list of streams. For example, see
the code below:
if peer_user_ids:
for new_user_id in new_user_ids:
event = dict(type="subscription", op="peer_add",
stream_id=stream.id,
user_id=new_user_id)
send_event(realm, event, peer_user_ids)
Note that this only affects the webapp, as mobile/ZT
don't use this.
Currently, the OpenAPI extension for rendering description in docs
cannot parse {!api-admin-only.md!}. Edit order of markdown extensions
in app_filters.py so that rendering of OpenAPI elements takes place
before substitution of files using `include`.
Mostly, this is a change in ordering to make more sense, but we also
fix several names that were clearly confusing.
We restore the convention that each endpoint has the same title at the
top of the page as what we have in the sidebar menu, which appears to
have been violated in many recent updates to API documentation.
api docs filenames are basically the operationId of their endpoint
in zulip.yaml with `_` replaced by `-`. But some operationIds have
changed, so change the affected filenames. Make changes in other
files accordingly.
This adds a new client_capability that clients such as the mobile apps
can use to avoid unreasonable network bandwidth consumed sending
avatar URLs in organizations with 10,000s of users.
Clients don't strictly need this data, as they can always use the
/avatar/{user_id} endpoint to fetch the avatar if desired.
This will be more efficient especially for realms with
10,000+ users because the avatar URLs would increase the
payload size significantly and cost us more bandwidth.
Fixes#15287.
This commit adds backend support for setting message_retention_days
while creating streams and updating it for an existing stream. We only
allow organization owners to set/update it for a stream.
'message_retention_days' field for a stream existed previously also, but
there was no way to set it while creating streams or update it for an
exisiting streams using any endpoint.
The term `parameter` is a better word than `argument` for data passed
to an API endpoint; this is why OpenAPI uses in their terminology.
Replace `argument` with `parameter` in the API docs to improve their
readability.
Fixes#15435.
We fixed the main issue of this form in CVE-2020-9444, but the audit
done at that time only included links found in rendered_markdown; this
change completes our audit for links with target=_blank anywhere in
the codebase.
This fixes a bundle of issues where we were missing "" around
attributes coming from variables. In most cases, the variables were
integers or fixed constants from the Zulip codebase (E.g. the name of
an installed integration), but in at least one case it was
user-provided data that could potentially have security impact.
Google has removed the Google Hangouts brand, thus we are removing
them as video chat provider option.
This commit removes Google Hangouts integration and make a migration
that sets all realms that are using Hangouts as their video chat
provider to the default, jitsi.
With changes by tabbott to improve the overall video call documentation.
Fixes: #15298.
This adds support for a "spoiler" syntax in Zulip's markdown, which
can be used to hide content that one doesn't want to be immediately
visible without a click.
We use our own spoiler block syntax inspired by Zulip's existing quote
and math block markdown extensions, rather than requiring a token on
every line, as is present in some other markdown spoiler
implementations.

This commit removes is_old_stream property from the stream objects
returned by the API. This property was unnecessary and is essentially
equivalent to 'stream_weekly_traffic != null'.

stream_weekly_traffic or not.

This is designed to have no user-facing change unless the client
declares bulk_message_deletion in its client_capabilities.
Clients that do so will receive a single bulk event for bulk deletions
of messages within a single conversation (topic or PM thread).
Backend implementation of #15285.
This commits adds restriction on admins to set message retention policy.
We now only allow only organization owners to set message retention
policy.
Dropdown for changing retention policy is disabled in UI for admins also.
The chevron sometime can be confused as an icon for expanding the
stream topics especially for the new users.
This commit replaces the confusing chevron icon from the stream-sidebar,
topic-list, user-presence-row, all-messages and starred-messages with
ellipsis-v icon(vertical three dots).
Fixes: #7115
This new endpoint returns a 'user' dictionary which, as of now,
contains a single key 'is_subscribed' with a boolean value that
represents whether the user with the given 'user_id' is subscribed
to the stream with the given 'stream_id'.
Fixes#14966.
The only clients that should use the typing
indicators endpoint are our internal clients,
and they should send a JSON-formatted list
of user_ids.
We now enforce this, which removes some
complexity surrounding legacy ways of sending
users, such as emails and comma-delimited
strings of user_ids.
There may be a very tiny number of mobile
clients that still use the old emails API.
This won't have any user-facing effect on
the mobile users themselves, but if you type
a message to your friend on an old mobile
app, the friend will no longer see typing
indicators.
Also, the mobile team may see some errors
in their Sentry logs from the server rejecting
posts from the old mobile clients.
The error messages we report here are a bit
more generic, since we now just use REQ
to do validation with this code:
validator=check_list(check_int)
This also allows us to remove a test hack
related to the API documentation. (We changed
the docs to reflect the modern API in an
earlier commit, but the tests couldn't be
fixed while we still had the more complex
semantics for the "to" parameter.)
