The user id is a very useful piece of information that the mobile
client should have access to - instead of only getting the email. This
makes it much simpler to impleent clients that might be robust to
changes in email address.
TOR users are legitimate users of the system; however, that system can
also be used for abuse -- specifically, by evading IP-based
rate-limiting.
For the purposes of IP-based rate-limiting, add a
RATE_LIMIT_TOR_TOGETHER flag, defaulting to false, which lumps all
requests from TOR exit nodes into the same bucket. This may allow a
TOR user to deny other TOR users access to the find-my-account and
new-realm endpoints, but this is a low cost for cutting off a
significant potential abuse vector.
If enabled, the list of TOR exit nodes is fetched from their public
endpoint once per hour, via a cron job, and cached on disk. Django
processes load this data from disk, and cache it in memcached.
Requests are spared from the burden of checking disk on failure via a
circuitbreaker, which trips of there are two failures in a row, and
only begins trying again after 10 minutes.
In #20012, it was discovered that since our `zulip_bots` package
requires `importlib-metadata >= 3.6; python_version < "3.10"`
whereas the server requires
`importlib-metadata==4.8.1 ; python_version < "3.8". This results
in `importlib-metadata` not being installed on Python 3.8 and
Python 3.9. This commit resolves that discrepancy.
Thanks to Anders Kaseorg (@andersk) for reporting this bug!
Add `escape_navigates_to_default_view` as a bool setting in

This commit replaces 'allow_message_deleting' boolean setting
with an integer setting 'delete_own_message_policy'. We have a
separate dropdown now for deciding which user-roles can delete
messages sent by themselves and the time-limit setting droddown
is different.
This new setting has two options - everyone and admins only. Other
options including moderators will be added further.
We also remove the "Never" option from the original time-limit
dropdown, as admins are always allowed to delete message. This
never option resembled the case of only admins being allowed to
delete but this state is now resembled by setting the dropdown
to "admins only" and we also disable the time-limit dropdown in
this case as admins are allowed to delete irrespective of limit.
Note, this setting is only for deleting messages sent by the
deleting user themselves, and only admins are allowed to delete
messages sent by others as before.
We make zero invalid value for message_content_delete_limit_seconds and
for handling the case of "Allow to delete message any time", the API-level
value of message_content_delete_limit_seconds is "anytime" and "None"
as the DB-level value. We also use these values for message retention
setting, so it helps maintain consistency.
This commit removes the existing default_twenty_four_hour_time field in
Realm table which was used to set the twenty_four_hour_time setting of
new user on joining and instead we now use the twenty_four_hour_time
field of RealmUserDefault table for the same.
With some tweaks by tabbott to clarify the documentation.
User can now create web public stream via the /subscribe API.
So, when a web public stream present in the API request does not
exist, it will be created now by specifying the is_web_public
parameter. The parameter would have been ignored without this
commit.
gitlint has a bunch of pinned requirements that hold back important
upgrades and conflict with other packages’ requirements. The gitlint
author has rejected proposals to unpin them because it might increase
the amount of maintenance he needs to do
(https://github.com/jorisroovers/gitlint/pull/133). That decision is
his to make, but _somebody_ needs to do the maintenance, so we
delegate it to Debian and Ubuntu. If that means using a significantly
older version of gitlint, that’s a tradeoff we need to make to keep
the rest of our requirements current.

Now, when we add a custom animated emoji to the realm
we also save a still image of it (1st frame of the gif). So
we can avoid showing an animated emoji every time.
This commit adds do_set_realm_user_default_setting which
will be used to change the realm-level defaults of settings
for new users.
We also add a new event type "realm_user_settings_defaults"
for these settings and a "realm_user_settings_default" object
in '/register' response containing all the realm-level default
settings.
This commit adds `demo_organization_scheduled_deletion_date` to
the `realm` section of the `/register` response so that it is
available to clients when enabled.
This is a part of #19523.
Along with the extraction, we do some simplifications of inserting
text in compose too. This same function can now be used in
compose formatting popover too.
We use "text-field-edit", which has good cross-browser `undo` /

that logic ourselves.
Till now, we've been forking django-auth-ldap at
https://github.com/zulip/django-auth-ldap to put the
LDAPReverseEmailSearch feature in it, hoping to get it merged
upstream in https://github.com/django-auth-ldap/django-auth-ldap/pull/150
The efforts to get it merged have stalled for now however and we don't
want to be on the fork forever, so this commit puts the email search
feature as a clumsy workaround inside our codebase and switches to using
the latest upstream release instead of the fork.

In this commit:
* We update the `UserStatus` model to accept
`AbstractReaction` as a base class so, we can get all the

* We update the user status event to add status emoji
fields.

This commit replaces boolean field add_emoji_by_admins_only with an
integer field add_custom_emoji_policy as we would also add full members
and moderators option for this setting in further commits.
Cross realm bots will soon stop being a thing. This param is responsible
for displaying "System Bot" in the user info popover - so this rename is the
right way to handle the situation.
We will likely want to rename the `cross_realm_bots` section as well,
but that is a more involved API migration.
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.

Sometime in the deep past, Zulip the GET /users/me/subscriptions
endpoint started returning subscribers. We noticed this and made it
optional via the include_subscribers parameter in
1af72a2745, however, we didn't notice
that they were being returned as emails rather than user IDs.
We migrated the core /register code paths to use subscriber IDs years
ago; this change completes that for the endpoints we forgot about.
The documentation allowed this error because we apparently had no
tests for this code path that used the actual API.
We remove the "full_name" and "account_email" fields from the response
of 'PATCH /settings' endpoint. These fields were part of the response
to make sure that we tell that the parameters not present in response
were ignored.
We can remove these fields as 'ignored_parameters_unsupported' now
specifies which parameters were ignored and not supported by the
endpoint.
An organization with at most 5 users that is behind on payments isn't
worth spending time on investigating the situation.
For larger organizations, we likely want somewhat different logic that
at least does not void invoices.
This commit replaces the allow_community_topic_editing boolean with
integer field edit_topic_policy and includes both frontend and
backend changes.
We also update settings_ui.disable_sub_settings_onchange to not
change the color of label as we did previously when the setting
was a checkbox. But now as the setting is dropdown we keep the
label as it is and we don't do anything with label when disabling
dropdowns. Also, this function was used only here so we can safely
change this.
This guards against various mistakes, such as setting defaultMessage
to a computed expression that can’t be extracted.

Bump API_FEATURE_LEVEL to 74.
We now organize the pygment language codes into meaningful categories

Further the `lang.json` list now contains a dataset extracted from the

Since this is currently only useful to interpret presence data, we
send this only if presence is requested.
I'm not sure that server_timestamp is the right name for this field,
but ultimately it should match the main presence API format.

This is a straightforward upgrade in terms of changes needed.
Necessary changes were:
- Set `DEFAULT_AUTO_FIELD`
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.2/releases/3.2/#customizing-type-of-auto-created-primary-keys
- `The default_app_config application configuration variable is deprecated, due
to the now automatic AppConfig discovery.`
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.2/releases/3.2/#automatic-appconfig-discovery
To handle this one, we can remove default_app_config from
zerver/__init__.py because it satisfies what release notes describe in
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.2/releases/3.2/#automatic-appconfig-discovery:
"Most pluggable applications define an AppConfig subclass in an apps.py
submodule. Many define a default_app_config variable pointing to this
class in their __init__.py. When the apps.py submodule exists and
defines a single AppConfig subclass, Django now uses that configuration
automatically, so you can remove default_app_config."
An important note is that rebuild-test-database needs to be run after
this upgrade in dev environment - if tests are run with test db that was
built on the previous version, they will fail due to a mysterious bug
(?), where changing attributes of a user and .save()ing after logging in
in the test via self.login_user, causes getting logged out - the next
requests via self.client_get etc. are unauthed for some reason,
unless self.login_user is called again. This behavior is no longer
exhibited upon rebuilding the test db - and I can't reproduce it in
production or dev db. So this can likely be reasonably dismissed as some
quirk of the test client system that won't be relevant in the future and
doesn't impact production.
This commit adds both frontend and backend code to invite a user as
moderator. We allow only existing owners and admins to invite a user
as a moderator.
This commit modifies the user objects returned by 'GET /users',
'GET /users/me', 'GET /users/{user_id}' and 'GET /users/{email}'
endpoints to include role field.
We also include role field in the page_params['realm_users'] dict
and in the person object sent in (type="realm_user", op="add")
event.
This extends the /json/typing endpoint to also accept
stream_id and topic. With this change, the requests
sent to /json/typing should have these:
* `to`: a list set to
- recipients for a PM
- stream_id for a stream message
* `topic`, in case of stream message
along with `op`(start or stop).
On receiving a request with stream_id and topic, we send
typing events to clients with stream_typing_notifications set
to True for all users subscribed to that stream.
Previously the outgoing emails were sent over several SMTP
connections through the EmailSendingWorker; establishing a new
connection each time adds notable overhead.
Redefine EmailSendingWorker worker to be a LoopQueueProcessingWorker,
which allows it to handle batches of events. At the same time, persist
the connection across email sending, if possible.
The connection is initialized in the constructor of the worker
in order to keep the same connection throughout the whole process.
The concrete implementation of the consume_batch function is simply
processing each email one at a time until they have all been sent.
In order to reuse the previously implemented decorator to retry
sending failures a new method that meets the decorator's required
arguments is declared inside the EmailSendingWorker class. This
allows to retry the sending process of a particular email inside
the batch if the caught exception leaves this process retriable.
A second retry mechanism is used inside the initialize_connection
function to redo the opening of the connection until it works or
until three attempts failed. For this purpose the backoff module
has been added to the dependencies and a test has been added to
ensure that this retry mechanism works well.
The connection is closed when the stop method is called.
Fixes: #17672.
This reverses the policy that was set, but incompletely enforced, by

This commit adds an API to `zproject/urls.py` to edit/update
the realm linkifier. Its helper function to update the
database is added in `zerver/lib/actions.py`.
`zulip.yaml` is documented accordingly as well, clearly
stating that this API updates one linkifier at a time.
The tests are added for the API and helper function which
updates the realm linkifier.
Fixes#10830.
Organization admins can use this setting to restrict the maximum
rating of GIFs that will be retrieved from GIPHY. Also, there
is option to disable GIPHY too.
* This introduces a new event type `realm_linkifiers` and
a new key for the initial data fetch of the same name.
Newer clients will be expected to use these.
* Backwards compatibility is ensured by changing neither
the current event nor the /register key. The data which
these hold is the same as before, but internally, it is
generated by processing the `realm_linkifiers` data.
We send both the old and the new event types to clients
whenever the linkifiers are changed.
Older clients will simply ignore the new event type, and
vice versa.
* The `realm/filters:GET` endpoint (which returns tuples)
is currently used by none of the official Zulip clients.
This commit replaces it with `realm/linkifiers:GET` which
returns data in the new dictionary format.
TODO: Update the `get_realm_filters` method in the API
bindings, to hit this new URL instead of the old one.
* This also updates the webapp frontend to use the newer
events and keys.
Previously, you had to request the `stream` event type in order to get
the stream-level parameters; this was a bad design in part because the
`subscription` event type has similar data and is preferred by most
clients.
So we move these to the `realm` object. We also add the maximum topic
length, as an adjacent parameter.
While changing this, we also fix these to better match the names of
similar API parameters.
* Don't require strings to be unnecessarily JSON-encoded.
* Use check_capped_string rather than custom code for length checks.
* Update frontend to pass the right parameters.
With a much simplified populate_data_for_request design suggested by
Anders; we only support a handful of data types, all of which are
correctly encoded automatically by jQuery.
