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.
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).
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.
We now can send an implied matrix of user/stream tuples
for peer_add and peer_remove events.
The client code basically does this:
for stream_id in event['stream_ids']:
for user_id in event['user_ids']:
update_sub(stream_id, user_id)
We used to send individual events, which gets real
expensive when you are creating new streams. For
the case of copy-to-stream case, we should see
events go from U to 1, where U is the number of users
added.
Note that we don't yet fully optimize the potential
of this schema. For adding a new user with lots
of default streams, we still send S peer_add events.
And if you subscribe a bunch of users to a bunch of
private streams, we only go from U * S to S; we can't
optimize it down to one event easily.
We used to send occupy/vacate events when
either the first person entered a stream
or the last person exited.
It appears that our two main apps have never
looked at these events. Instead, it's
generally the case that clients handle
events related to stream creation/deactivation
and subscribe/unsubscribe.
Note that we removed the apply_events code
related to these events. This doesn't affect
the webapp, because the webapp doesn't care
about the "streams" field in do_events_register.
There is a theoretical situation where a
third party client could be the victim of
a race where the "streams" data includes
a stream where the last subscriber has left.
I suspect in most of those situations it
will be harmless, or possibly even helpful
to the extent that they'll learn about
streams that are in a "quasi" state where
they're activated but not occupied.
We could try to patch apply_event to
detect when subscriptions get added
or removed. Or we could just make the
"streams" piece of do_events_register
not care about occupy/vacate semantics.
I favor the latter, since it might
actually be what users what, and it will
also simplify the code and improve
performance.
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.
yamole preprocesses our schema by naïvely merging all the objects in
an allOf array together, but this fails to capture the meaning of
allOf according to the OpenAPI specification. allOf is supposed to be
a strict logical intersection of each subschema interpreted
independently. It does not combine their properties maps before
interpreting additionalProperties. So according to the old definition
of JsonSuccess, every response is invalid:
allOf:
- additionalProperties: false
properties:
result:
type: string
- required:
- result
- msg
properties:
msg:
type: string
because the first subschema disallowed msg and the second subschema
required msg.
To fix this, whenever we use allOf for schema “inheritence”, the base
schema must not specify additionalProperties, and the child schema
must explicitly list all properties recursively inherited from the
base schema in any subschema that uses additionalProperties.
Fixes#16109.

This commit moves docs for users/{user_id}/subscriptions/{stream_id}
enndpoint to be after users/me/subscriptions/muted_topics docs.
We are rearranging the docs because after adding the new patch
endpoint for users/{user_id}/subscriptions/{stream_id}, openapi_core
validator tries to match 'users/me/subscriptions/muted_topics'
with 'users/{user_id}/subscriptions/{stream_id}' path in zulip.yaml
and thus gives error while running tests.
This is a bug in 'openapi_core' as it does not follows OpenAPI specs
to match concrete paths before their templated counterparts. Thus,
this commit rearranges the docs such that openapi_core validator
tries to match muted_topics endpoint with the correct path in
zulip.yaml docs.
$ref siblings are ignored according to the OpenAPI specification, and
the referenced definitions already have examples.

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.
The `typing: stop` event did not have any tests in test_events
hence its documentation wasn't added. So add tests and relevant
documentation for the typing stop event. Also edit the documentation
of `typing: start` to include the fact that servers should use
their own timeout incase `stop` event event isn't received.
Fixes#16122.
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.
If you look at line number 1121 (new) of commit 14c0a387cf,
I seem to have accidently set the description for a status
200 response to "Bad Request" instead of "Success" which
is what it really is. It's basically an ugly typo (maybe
due to hastily copy-pasting the template).

`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.
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 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.
These escapes are valid YAML 1.2 (for JSON compatibility) but not

To increase code reusability and reduce code redundancy, we move data
structures which occur multiple times in the OpenAPI documentation to
the `schemas` section. Note that this a pure data movement commit
without any changes to the data beyond removing over-specific
descriptions (E.g. that suggest the user group was just created).
(Future commits will use these)
This giant commit completes basic OpenAPI documentation for all events
in Zulip's real-time events API.
Further work will be required in the near future to make
/api/get_events usable.
With many edits by tabbott for wording and correctness (especially
around which clients receive events, and their purpose).
This commit modifies the /streams endpoint so that the web-public
streams are included in the default list of streams that users
have access to.
This is part of PR #14638 that aims to allow guest users to
browse and subscribe themselves to web public streams.
Document all events of `type`=stream i.e all `op`s. Also document some other
events.
Tweaked by tabbott to clarify some documentation details (especially
around who receives events).
The parameter Stream.date_created is now sent down to the clients
for both:
- client.get_streams()
- client.list_subscriptions()
API docs updated for stream and subscriptions.
Fixes#15410
The stream schema is used in two locations so move it to the
components section. Also the `is_default` key returned by `/streams`
is not returned by `/events`. So handle it separately.
The `Messages` schema present in `#/components/schemas` was a
combination of all keys possible in any message object used in Zulip.
Edit it so that the original `Messages` contains just the keys present
in the `message` event. Also make another schema `GetMessages` which
adds a few other keys which are received when using `GET /messages`.
The message object in the `/zulip-outgoing-webhook` has also been
modified and corrected.
The `subscriptions` has use in multiple endpoints and hence instead
of redefining it at every point move it to the the components section
for easier reuse.
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.
We extract OptionalContent and RequiredContent since some endpoints
require it and other don't.
In an ideal world, we'd have a better way to express these small
variants.
openapi-core, the request validator has a bug due to which data type
of path parameters is not checked. Hence `/users/{user_id}` can match
with `users/me`. So change the position of`/user/{user_id}` after all
such possible matches to avoid errors.
See https://github.com/p1c2u/openapi-core/issues/226 for details.

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.
In zulip.yaml, add `deprecated` tags to all parameters/keys with
`Deprecated` in the description. Then add tests to ensure that deprecated
parameters/keys will always have the `deprecated` key. Also, in
the API docs, sort the parameters according to presence of `deprecated`
key, presenting the `deprecated` keys at the end and add a `deprecated`
tag next to them.
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.
`/api/v1/fetch_api_key`'s response had a key `email` with the user's
delivery email. But its JSON counterpart `/json/fetch_api_key`, which
has a completely different implementation, did not return `email` in
its success response.
So to avoid confusion, the non-API endpoint, `/json/fetch_api_key`
response has been made identical with it's `/api` counterpart by
adding the `email` key. Also it is safe to send as the calling user
will only see their own email.
The `EXCLUDE_PROPERTIES` is a dictionary in `zerver/openapi/openapi.py`
which holds the undocumented properties of our API. Document all
properties other than:
*`delivery_email` which is in another PR.
*'events' and 'register'.
*'/setting/notification' since its response is about to undergo heavy
changes.
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.
Currently the API docs do not specify whether a given API parameter
is to be specified in `query` or in `path`. Edit the docs so as
to show the type of argument right beside argument name.
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.
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'.
We compute sub.is_old_stream in stream_data.update_calculated_fields
in frontend code and it is used to check whether we have a non-null
stream_weekly_traffic or not.
Fixes#15181.
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).

The narrow parameter was incorrectly documented as a one-level array

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.)
Add test to validate example responses in zulip.yaml. Also change
zulip.yaml for some wrong examples or for cases which were not
covered by `test-api`. Also enhance `validate_against_openapi_schema`.
This implementation overrides some of PSA's internal backend
functions to handle `state` value with redis as the standard
way doesn't work because of apple sending required details
in the form of POST request.

Native auth flow.
Thanks to Mateusz Mandera for the idea of using redis and
other important work on this.

We're migrating to using the cleaner zulip.com domain, which involves
changing all of our links from ReadTheDocs and other places to point
to the cleaner URL.
This commit removes short_name and client_id fields from the user
objects returned by get_profile_backend because neither of them
had a purpose.
* short_name hasn't been present anywhere else in the Zulip API for
several years, and isn't set through any coherent algorithm.
* client_id was a forgotten 2013-era predecessor to the queue_id field
returned by the register_event_queue process.
The combination of these changes gets us close to having `get_profile`
have the exact same format as other endpoints fetching a user object.
This commit changes get_profile_backend to be based on format_user_row
such that it's a superset of the fields for our other endpoints for
getting data on a user.
To be clear, this does not removes any of the exisiting fields, that
were returned by this endpoint.
This change adds some fields to the User object returned by the
endpoint. API docs are updated accordingly for the added fields.
Option to disable breadcrumb messages were given in both message edit
form and topic edit stream popover.
User now has the option to select which stream to send the notification
of stream edit of a topic via checkboxes in the UI.
Objects whose properties are not described were validated by the
current validator. Edit it so that objects with no `properties`
or `additionalProperties` attribute i.e. opaque objects get
invalidated.
Also make changes in zulip.yaml to fix any opaque objects (tweaked by
tabbott to edit the documentation for better clarity).
Currently, `validate_against_openapi_schema` checks only the top
level of the response dictionary. Improve it so that it can
validate objects and arrays at all levels. Also edit zulip.yaml
accordingly. And for new response keys which were not defined
before add VERY basic documentation.
This commit modifies the backend to accept user ids when subscribing
users to streams.
It also migrates all existing tests to use this API, aside from a
small set of tests for the legacy API.
There's no reason to send data beyond the user `id` of the uploader,
and reason not to, as the previous model was both awkward when
`author=None` and resulted in unecessary parsing complexity for
clients.
Modified by tabbott to add the frontend changes and API documentation.
Fixes#15115.
There are several places where the return values description is better
in the api docs than in the zulip.yaml file. Import such changes to
zulip.yaml before we replace the current hacky API docs with the
zulip.yaml content.
This commit changes the update user API endpoint to accept role
as parameter instead of the bool parameters is_guest and is_admin.
User role dropdown in user info modal is also modified to use
"dropdown_options_widget".
Modified by tabbott to document the API change.
The swagger validator is a basic tool to check whether our
openapi specification file follows the basic syntax. But to ensure
that our zulip.yaml file is not only syntactically compatible but
also describes our API well, we need to add custom tests. This
commit currently checks whether each endpoint has an `operationId`
and a valid tag. It also makes it easier to check for custom rules
in the future.
'tags' attribute is helpful in differentiating and grouping the
endpoints on basis of their usage. For example tags like 'messages'
help in grouping all endpoints related to messages and thus make the
api specification more user-friendly. So give tags to the endpoints
on the basis of what heading they are under in the API docs.
'operationId' helps code generators in naming functions and other purposes.
So name operationId of endpoints as their function names in python-zulip-api
if it exists else use most appropriate function name.
Part of #14100 .
Some examples mentioned in zulip.yaml did not match their schema.
Change either the schema or the example so that all examples are

To facilitate re-use of the same parameters in other paths, this commit
store the content of the parameter "include_custom_profile_fields" in

To facilitate re-use of the same parameters in other paths, this commit
store the content of the parameter "history_public_to_subscribers" in

For privacy-minded folks who don't want to leak the

option to disable sending presence updates to other
users.
The new settings lies in the "Other notification

page, under a "Presence" subheading.
Closes#14798.
I imagine this can be improved in various ways, but I've initialized
this with all the **Changes** entries recorded in either zulip.yaml or
the rest of the API documentation, and I expect we'll be able to
iterate on this effectively.
It'll also be useful as a record of changes that we should remember to
document the API documentation as we document more endpoints that
currently don't discuss these issues.
While working on this, I fixed various issues where feature levels
could be mentioned or endpoints didn't properly document changes.
Firstly, change endpoint descriptions in zulip.yaml so that they
match their counterpart in the api docs. Then edit the api docs
so that they use api description markdown extension for displaying
endpoint description.
Add function in openapi.py to access endpoint descriptions written
in zulip.yaml. Use this function for creating a markdown extension
for rendering endpoint descriptions written in zulip.yaml.
We use this extension for a single endpoint to get test coverage.
The purpose is to provide a way for (non-webapp) clients,
like the mobile and terminal apps, to tell whether the
server it's talking to is new enough to support a given
API feature -- in particular a way that
* is finer-grained than release numbers, so that for
features developed after e.g. 2.1.0 we can use them
immediately on servers deployed from master (like
chat.zulip.org and zulipchat.com) without waiting the
months until a 2.2 release;
* is reliable, unlike e.g. looking at the number of
commits since a release;
* doesn't lead to a growing bag of named feature flags
which the server has to go on sending forever.
Tweaked by tabbott to extend the documentation.
Closes#14618.
