This test mostly tests how we glue everything
together, but I want to change that in an upcoming
commit.
Also, the data stuff that it tests is now better
covered by the test recent tests I added.
There was an edge case with the old
code when you had exactly between 6 and 8
topics and all in cache, with a couple of
the topics being unread.
We would show "more topics" when you were
actually seeing all your possible topics.
To test this:
- create 7 topics on Venice
- as Iago, narrow to any of the Venice
topics
- as Aaron, send unreads to 3 or 4
of the other topics
Eventually Iago will have all possible
topics in the sidebar. On master we'll
show "more topics", whereas after this commit
we correctly avoid that.
It's a pretty harmless bug, since it just
leads to a useless zoom-in.
I have always felt we should zoom-in
regardless of how many topics you have,
just for consistency sake, but I also
understand the rationale behind our
current intentions.
This is basically trying to confine the
rendering logic to a smaller function,
since I want to work toward a better
approach for redrawing the topic list.
Also, since the new function is now
purely data-oriented, it will be a
bit easier to test various edge cases.
If you clicked for no more topics and then the server didn't find any,
we once had code that would say "No more topics" in light gray at the
bottom of the topic list.
The feature appears to have been broken by some detail in the
`self.dom` refactoring. More importantly, it's not clear it's useful
as opposed to clutter.
Since we added the `stream.first_message_id` feature, it's now very
rare for the `more topics` option to appear when there aren't in fact
older topics that could be fetched. In cases where there are not, the
UI is still clear about what's happening -- it shows a loading
indicator and then displays a list of topics that doesn't have
anything new.
So we're removing this feature; we can re-add it without too much
difficulty if user feedback in the future suggests it would be useful
after all.
The only place we ever set active-sub-filter is
right after we build the template, so there is
no reason to have it be a separate step.
(I made a similar fix to pm_list recently, and
this helps set the stage for doing vdom-like
stuff.)
The previous logic was a bit byzantine, making a lot of inferences
based on which conditionals had already been processed that made it
hard to read. This simple function approach promises to be more
readable.
This is for consistency with how we show unreads in muted topics at
the stream level, avoiding distracting users with the appearance of
unread messages in muted topics that they've made clear they are not
interested in.
Arguably, we should show a faded count if there are unreads on muted
topics (but none on unmuted topics), but that seems somewhat complex
to maintain, and we'd benefit from user feedback to make an effective
decision on whether it'd be an improvement.
Fixes#13676.
I think this probably matches users' expected behavior that muted
streams shouldn't get in their way unless the user is actively looking
for them. If a user has a lot of muted topics with active traffic
(e.g. because topics corresponding to channels in a mirrored Slack
instance), they would previously find their 5 slots cluttered with
those muted topics even if there were unmuted topics with unread
messages.
Fixes#13677.
responses is an module analogous to httpretty for mocking external
URLs, with a very similar interface (potentially cleaner in that it
makes use of context managers).
The most important (in the moment) problem with httpretty is that it
breaks the ability to use redis in parts of code where httpretty is
enabled. From more research, the module in general has tendency to
have various troublesome bugs with breaking URLs that it shouldn't be
affecting, caused by it working at the socket interface layer. While
those issues could be fixed, responses seems to be less buggy (based
on both third-party reports like ckan/ckan#4755 and our own experience
in removing workarounds for bugs in httpretty) and is more actively
maintained.
This correct various inaccuracies and adds a bulleted list structure
for better clarity.
I think there's a lot more that could be done here in the form of
linking to other pages, discussing restarting `run-dev.py`, etc.
Added a link from docs/development/using ("Using the Development
Environment") to ./authentication ("Authentication in the development
environment") to help people working on the authentication systems
or anyone who needs an API key.
Separate using.html into Server/Web/Mobile sections so that readers
will find what they're looking for more quickly. Server is at the top
because it contains information relevant to web and mobile developers,
e.g., that the `run-dev.py` console output will provide useful errors.
Fixes#13655.
If an email is sent with the .prefer-html option, but it has no html
body, it's better to fall back to plaintext content instead of treating
it as a user error.
Closes#13484.
These options tell zulip whether to prefer the plaintext or html version
of the email message. prefer-text is the default behavior, so including
the option doesn't change anything as of now, but we're adding it to
prepare to potentially change the default behavior in the future.
As we add more address options, which will have different behavior than
simply setting option_name=True, we need to migrate this subsystem to
something that better supports more complex logic and will allow
encapsulating it, instead of needing to be put all over the
decode_email_address function.
This essentially unused legacy variable was causing Zulip to query the
database at import time, which is generally not something we aim to
do.
Combined with the issue fixed in the previous commit, this variable
resulted in test-backend providing an unhelpful crash when provision
hadn't updated the unit testing database.
Since the intent of our testing code was clearly to clear this cache
for every test, there's no reason for it to be a module-level global.
This allows us to remove an unnecessary import from test_runner.py,
which in combination with DEFAULT_REALM's definition was causing us to
run models code before running migrations inside test-backend.
(That bug, in turn, caused test-backend's check for whether migrations
needs to be run to happen sadly after trying to access a Realm,
trigger a test-backend crash if the Realm model had changed since the
last provision).
In this commit, we basically match any kinda of jinja2 start tag,
no matter its special kind (eg. jinja2_whitespace_stripped_start)
to any kinda jinja2 end tag (eg. jinja2_whitespace_stripped_end)
Idea is special operators like `-` do not change the meaning of
inline tag and thus matching shouldn't depend upon this.
Due to a known but unfixed bug in the Python standard library’s
urllib.parse module (CVE-2015-2104), a crafted URL could bypass the
validation in the previous patch and still achieve an open redirect.

Switch to using django.utils.http.is_safe_url, which already contains
a workaround for this bug.

We may revisit this in the future, but similar to is:private, the
current Zulip user experience makes users expect that in the
is:mentioned view, they should really be able to mark messages as
read.
Further, the practice use case for not marking them as read is very
low, since it's rare for someone to have so many mentions that
revisiting the mentions view isn't sufficient to see everything that
needs their attention.
Previously, is_exactly() had already been repalced with can_bucket_by().
This commit removes is_exactly() and replaces its usage in our tests
with can_bucket_by().
At some point the PostgreSQL Docker image started creating the zulip
database for us, which caused our CREATE DATABASE to fail.

For Manage Streams, when we render the subscriptions
template, a significant amount of time is taken
by the "t" helper.
Obviously for the first call, we expect "t" to be
somewhat expensive, but subsuquent calls should be
fast, but i18next seems to have some overhead.
Also, we can save a tiny bit of overhead (marking it
as a safe string) that comes from our helper.
As an aside, are we sure it's ok to mark translations
as safe strings?
To test before and after, use blueslip.timings before
and after this commit. When I tested with about 300
streams, the difference is pretty striking:
without cache: 100ms
with cache: 20ms
This is particularly interesting, since the subscriptions
templates have long strings for things like the SVG-based
checkmarks, but they're not really the bottleneck.
Unfortunately, this doesn't seem to be a huge win
elsewhere. In some places we don't call "t", but of
course those might change in the future and benefit from
the cache. And in other places we have smart widgets
that avoid rendering all N objects at one (e.g. buddy
list and list_render).
So this might be too big a hammer to speed up one
screen (albeit a really slow one). It's possible
that we should simply move the i18n.t step **outside**
of certain templates to avoid doing them in a loop.
