The codepath for moving a topic changes the message.recipient_id to the
id of the new recipient, but later, in update_messages_for_topic_edit,
it uses message.recipient when querying for messages with the matching
topic in the *old* stream (because those are the other messages that
need to be moved). This is a bug which happens to work fine, because in
Django 2, if message.recipient gets fetched first and then
message.recipient_id is mutated, message.recipient will not be altered
and thus will retain the outdated, previously fetched value.
In Django 3 changing .recipient_id causes .recipient to be updated to
the new Recipient objects, which is the Recipient of the *new* stream.
That will cause the bug to manifest.
This is a bugfix preparing for the upgrade to Django 3.
When changing the subdomain of a realm, create a deactivated realm with
the old subdomain of the realm, and set its deactivated_redirect to the
new subdomain.
Doing this will help us to do the following:
- When a user visits the old subdomain of a realm, we can tell the user
that the realm has been moved.
- During the registration process, we can assure that the old subdomain
of the realm is not used to create a new realm.
If the subdomain is changed multiple times, the deactivated_redirect
fields of all the deactivated realms are updated to point to the new
uri.
Instead of just storing the edit history in the message which
triggered the topic edit, we store the edit history in all
the messages that changed. This helps users track the edit history
of a message more reliably.
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 change the return type of check_message to be dataclass instead of
Dict[str, Any]. This refactoring helps us to understand the context of the
data structure returned by check_message clearly which was not possible
when using Dict.
SendMessageRequest class is added in zerver/lib/message.py inspite of it
not being used in that file itself just to maintain consistency as other
TypedDicts and dataclasses are defined in that file and to avoid circular
dependency as SendMessageRequest is being used in lib/widget.py as well.
We also rename local variable to 'send_request' for accessing
SendMessageRequest objects.
We always want to do these at the same time. Previously, message
editing did too much stripping (fixes#16837) and failed to check for
NUL bytes.

Previously we were just returning a dict containing a message id when
trying to mirror a already sent message in 'zephyr_mirror' cases.
This commit changes this behaviour to raise an exception when trying
to mirror an already sent message by adding a new exception class
ZephyrMessageAlreadySentException and then the caller returns the
message_id directly, instead of calling do_send_messages which also
returns a list of size one containing the message_id only.
This is a prep commit for changing the return type of check_message to
be a dataclass instead of a Dict as now we have only single output for
check_message.
The message_dict['wildcard_mention_user_ids'] should be empty set instead
of empty list when there are no wildcard mentions similar to the case
when there are wildcard mentions, where it is equal to set of user ids and
not list of user ids.
We export a realm's data, and disable the realm, because the user
is moving from Zulip Cloud (e.g. https://example.zulipchat.com/) to
self-hosting or another platform (e.g. https://zulip.example.com/)
which we do not control. This commit adds a field in the realm object
called deactivated_redirect to store the url to which the realm has
moved.
While working on shifting toward native browser time zone APIs
(#16451), it was found that all but very recent Chrome and Node
versions reject certain legacy timezone aliases like US/Pacific
(https://crbug.com/364374).
For now, we only canonicalize the timezone property returned in user
objects and not the timezone setting itself.

During the new user creation code path, there can be no existing
active clients for the user being created, so we can skip the code to
send events to that user's clients.
The tests here reflect that we need to send fewer events, and do fewer
queries that would have been spent computing data for these..
Fixes#16503, combined with the long series of recent changes by Steve
Howell to fix super-linear behavior in this code path.
We no bulk up peer_add/peer_remove events by user if the
same user has subscribed to multiple streams (and just
that single user).
This mostly optimizes the new-user codepath, but the
algorithm is a bit more general in nature.
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.
All the fields of a stream's recipient object can
be inferred from the Stream, so we just make a local
object. Django will create a Message object without
checking that the child Recipient object has been
saved. If that behavior changes in some upgrade,
we should see some pretty obvious symptom, including
query counts changing.
Tweaked by tabbott to add a longer explanatory comment, and delete a
useless old comment.
This saves us a query for edge cases like when
you try to unsubscribe from a public stream
that you have already unsubscribed from.
But this is mostly to prep for upcoming
optimizations.
This doesn't change anything yet, but the goal is
to eventually optimize events for the case where
one user (typically a new user) gets subscribed
to multiple public streams.
There was no need to put "stream_id" on the sub
dictionary here. It's kinda annoying to introduce
the little helper here, but I feel
that's better than crufting up the sub data
structure.
The is_web_public flag is already in Stream.API_FIELDS,
so there is no reason for all this complicated logic.
There's no reason to hack it on to the subscription
object.
We replace all_streams_id with a map.
We also use it to populate never_subscribed_streams.
And all_streams_map is a superset of stream_hash,
which we will soon kill off as well.
Apparently I put these parens in the code as
part of 73c30774cb
during 2017.
It looks like I extracted is_public during
the middle of my change and forgot to remove
the unnecessary parens. (The code was correct,
but it makes it look like a tuple if you're
skimming it too quickly.)
That class is an artifact of when Stream
didn't have recipient_id. Now it's simpler
to deal with stream subscriptions.
We also save a query during page load (and
other places where we get subscriber
info).
We already trust ids that are put on our queue
for deferred work. For example, see the code for
"mark_stream_messages_as_read_for_everyone"
We now pass stream_recipient_id when we queue
up work for do_mark_stream_messages_as_read.
This generally saves about 3 queries per
user when we unsubscribe them from a stream.
We get two speedups:
* The query to get existing subscribers only
gets the two fields we need. We no longer
need all the overhead of user_profile
and recipient data being returned in the
query.
* We avoid Django making extra hops to the
database to get user info.
Previously, the transaction.atomic() was not properly scoped to ensure
that RealmAuditLog entries were created in the same transaction,
making it possible for state changes to not be properly recorded in
RealmAuditLog.
When apps like mobile register for "streams", we
will now just use active streams as our baseline,
rather than "occupied" streams.
This means we will send a stream that is active,
even if it happens to have zero occupants. It's
actually pretty rare that a stream has zero occupants,
and it's not exactly clear that we want to exclude
a non-occupied but otherwise active stream from
our list of streams.
It also happens to be fairly expensive to compute
whether a stream is occupied.
This change only affects API clients (including
possibly our mobile app). The main webapp never
used the data from this codepath.
We replace get_peer_user_ids_for_stream_change
with two bulk functions to get peers and/or
subscribers.
Note that we have three codepaths that care about
peers:
subscribing existing users:
we need to tell peers about new subscribers
we need to tell subscribed user about old subscribers
unsubscribing existing users:
we only need to tell peers who unsubscribed
subscribing new user:
we only need to tell peers about the new user
(right now we generate send_event
calls to tell the new user about existing
subscribers, but this is a waste
of effort that we will fix soon)
The two bulk functions are this:
bulk_get_subscriber_peer_info
bulk_get_peers
They have some overlap in the implementation,
but there are some nuanced differences that are
described in the comments.
Looking up peers/subscribers in bulk leads to some
nice optimizations.
We will save some memchached traffic if you are
subscribing to multiple public streams.
We will save a query in the remove-subscriber
case if you are only dealing with private streams.
This will ensure that we always fully execute the database part of
modifying subscription objects. In particular, this should prevent
invariant failures like #16347 where Subscription objects were created
without corresponding RealmAuditLog entries.
Fixes#16347.
We don't need the select_related('user_profile')
optimization any more, because we just keep
track of user info in our own data structures.
In this codepath we are never actually modifying
users; we just occasionally need their ids or
emails.
This can be a pretty substantive improvement if
you are adding a bunch of users to a stream
who each have a bunch of their own subscriptions.
We could also limit the number of full rows in this
query by adding an extra hop to the DB just to
get colors (using values_list), and then only get
full sub info for the streams that we're adding, rather
than getting every single subscription, in full, for each user.
Apart from finding what colors the user has already
used, the only other reason we need all the columns
in Subscription here is to handle streams that
need to be reactivated. Otherwise we could do
only("id", "active", "recipient_id", "user_profile_id")
or similar. Fortunately, Subscription isn't
an overly wide table; it's mostly bool fields.
But by far the biggest thing to avoid is bringing
in all the extra user_profile data.
We have pretty good coverage on query counts here,
so I think this fix is pretty low risk.
This class removes a lot of the annoying tuples
we were passing around.
Also, by including the user everywhere, which
is easily available to us when we make instances
of SubInfo, it sets the stage to remove
select_related('user_profile').
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.
If a user asks to be subscribed to a stream
that they are already subscribed to, then
that stream won't be in new_stream_user_ids,
and we won't need to send an event for it.
This change makes that happen more automatically.
