For filters like has:link, where the web app doesn't necessarily
want to guess whether incoming messages meet the criteria of the
filter, the server is asked to query rows that match the query.
Usually these queries are search queries, which have fields for
content_matches and subject_matches. Our logic was handling those
correctly.
Non-search queries were throwing an exception related to tuple
unpacking. Now we recognize when those fields are absent and
do the proper thing.
There are probably situations where the web app should stop hitting
this endpoint and just use its own filters. We are making the most
defensive fix first.
Fixes#6118
This change is mostly based on a similar commit from hackerkid
in a feature branch. It borrows both code and ideas. Some of
it's my own stuff, as I was working on a newer branch.
We now call get_user_including_cross_realm_email() inside of
user_profiles_from_unvalidated_emails(), instead of using
get_user_profile_by_email.
This requires a few of our callers to pass down sender into us.
One consequence of this change is that we change the symptoms
for trying to send to emails outside of your realm. In some
cases, we simply raise an error that an email is invalid to us
instead of getting into the deeper validate_recipient_user_profiles
check.
This class simplifies the calling sequence to methods like
check_message and _internal_prep_message, and it's also more
type safe.
Checking for message types is encapsulated with calls to is_stream()
and is_private(). There are also shortcut constructors when you
know that the type of the address (stream vs. private), which is often.
In this we basically seed a single message for the user which will
be soft deactivated by sending a stream message / group PM to
ensure that is has at least one UserMessage row, since in real
world every human user will always have at least one User Message
row.
Before this change, server searches for both
`is:mentioned` and `is:alerted` would return all messages
where the user is specifically mentioned (but not
at-all mentions).
Now we follow the JS semantics:
is:mentioned -- all mentions, including wildcards
is:alerted -- has an alert word
Here is one relevant JS snippet:
} else if (operand === 'mentioned') {
return message.mentioned;
} else if (operand === 'alerted') {
return message.alerted;
And here you see that `mentioned` is OR'ed over both mention flags:
message.mentioned = convert_flag('mentioned') || convert_flag('wildcard_mentioned');
The `alerted` flag on the JS side is a simple mapping:
message.alerted = convert_flag('has_alert_word');
Fixes#5020
Given typeahed and the fact that this only worked if the person had a
full name that didn't contain whitespace, this side effect of the
original @shortname mentionfeature that we removed was experienced by
users as a bug.
Fixes#6142.
We apparently were using the default of num_before=1, not
num_before=0, which meant that if the very last randomly generated
message was one by cordelia mentioning lunch,
test_get_messages_with_search would fail because there were actually 3
matches.
This adds the authors to the Zulip repository on GitHub from
/authors/ along with re-styling the page to fit the same
aesthetic as /for/open-source/ and other product-pages.
