Previously, the way that render_messages was calling bugdown meant
that the preview feature didn't have access to realm data like the
list of users or streams, resulting in previews for those elements
being wrong.
Now render_message_backend uses zerver.lib.render_markdown to render
messages correctly.
[Commit message tweaked and test added by tabbott]
With reactions and other upcoming features, we'll be adding several
places where we need to check whether a particular user can access a
particular message. It's best to just have a single helper function
for this purpose that we can use everywhere.
This pulls message-related code from models.py into a new
module called message.py, and it starts to break some bugdown
dependencies. All the methods here are basically related to
serializing Message objects as dictionaries for caches and
events.
extract_message_dict
stringify_message_dict
message_to_dict
message_to_dict_json
MessageDict.to_dict_uncached
MessageDict.to_dict_uncached_helper
MessageDict.build_dict_from_raw_db_row
MessageDict.build_message_dict
This fix also removes a circular dependency related
to get_avatar_url.
Also, there was kind of a latent bug in Message.need_to_render_content
where it was depending on other calls to Message to import bugdown
and set it globally in the namespace. We really need to just
eliminate the function, since it's so small and used by code that
may be doing very sketchy things, but for now I just fix it. (The
bug would possibly be exposed by moving build_message_dict out to the
library.)
I move these three functions to lib/cache.py:
to_dict_cache_key_id
to_dict_cache_key
flush_message
This will prepare us for a more significant refactoring that
eventually breaks down some circular dependencies with
Message and bugdown.
This was the original way to send messages via the Zulip API in the
very early days of Zulip, but was replaced by the REST API back in
2013.
Fixes: #730.
We no longer use all the alert words for all the users in the
entire realm when we look for alert words in a newly sent/edited
message. Now we limit the search to only all the alert words
for all the users who will get UserMessage records. This will
hopefully make a big difference for big realms where most messages
are only sent to a small subset of users.
We now use render_incoming_message() to render all incoming
new messages (sends/edits), so that they will get the same treatment.
This change also establishes do_send_messages() as the code
path to get new messages rendered. It removes some
logic from check_message() that only happened on certain code paths
for sending messages, and which would only detect failures by
expensively rendering messages, so it wasn't much of a guard.
This change also helps to phase out maybe_render_content(), which
deepens the call stack without providing much clarity to the reader,
since it's behavior is so variable.
Finally, this sets up to fix a flaw in the way we compute which
users have alert words in their messages (in a subsequent commit).
These annotations aren't perfect because the sqlalchemy stubs in
typeshed are broken (e.g. a `Select` doesn't have the ability to do
`.where()`, but we've at least used some typevars to make it easy to
address that when the sqlalchemy stubs are less broken).
This adds support for using PGroonga to back the Zulip full-text
search feature. Because built-in PostgreSQL full text search doesn't
support languages that don't put space between terms such as Japanese,
Chinese and so on. PGroonga supports all languages including Japanese
and Chinese.
Developers will need to re-provision when rebasing past this patch for
the tests to pass, since provision is what installs the PGroonga
package and extension.
PGroonga is enabled by default in development but not in production;
the hope is that after the PGroonga support is tested further, we can
enable it by default.
Fixes#615.
[docs and tests tweaked by tabbott]
Apparently, we had incorrectly concluded that our highlight_string
search result highlighting offsets coming from tsearch_extras were
measured in bytes, whereas in fact it is measured in characters.
There were a bunch of authorization and well-formedness checks in
zerver.lib.actions.do_update_message that I moved to
zerver.views.messages.update_message_backend.
Reason: by convention, functions in actions.py complete their actions;
error checking should be done outside the file when possible.
Fixes: #1150.
This is controlled through the admin tab and a new field in the Realms
table. This mirrors the behavior of the old hardcoded setting
feature_flags.disable_message_editing. Partially resolves#903.
For a long time, rest_dispatch has had this hack where we have to
create a copy of it in each views file using it, in order to directly
access the globals list in that file. This removes that hack, instead
making rest_dispatch just use Django's import_string to access the
target method to use.
[tweaked and reorganized from acrefoot's original branch in various
ways by tabbott]
This changes the type annotations for the cache keys in Zulip to be
consistently text_type, and updates the annotations for values that
are used as cache keys across the codebase.
As documented in https://github.com/zulip/zulip/issues/441, Guardian
has quite poor performance, and in fact almost 50% of the time spent
running the Zulip backend test suite on my laptop was inside Guardian.
As part of this migration, we also clean up the old API_SUPER_USERS
variable used to mark EMAIL_GATEWAY_BOT as an API super user; now that
permission is managed entirely via the database.
When rebasing past this commit, developers will need to do a
`manage.py migrate` in order to apply the migration changes before the
server will run again.
We can't yet remove Guardian from INSTALLED_APPS, requirements.txt,
etc. in this release, because otherwise the reverse migration won't
work.
Fixes#441.
