This is part of our general process of replacing emails, which are not
static with time, with user_ids when referring to users in the API.
We still keep the `email` reference option, since it can be useful for
linking third-party applications to Zulip on an intranet that might
have a user's corporate email handy and not want to do the extra round
trip to lookup the user.
The name of the parameter, user_id_or_email, was chosen to to make it
clear that the default/preferred option is user_id.
Fixes#14304.
TextField is used to allow users to set long stream + topic narrow
names in the urls.
We currently restrict users to only set "all_messages" and
"recent_topics" as narrows.
This commit achieves 3 things:
* Removes recent topics as the default view which loads when
hash is empty.
* Loads default_view when hash is empty.
* Loads default_view on pressing escape key when it is unhandled by
other present UI elements.
NOTE: After this commit loading zulip with an empty hash will
automatically set hash to default_view. Ideally, we'd just display
the default view without a hash, but that involves extra complexity.
One exception is when user is trying to load an overlay directly,
i.e. zulip is loaded with an overlay hash. In this case,
we render recent topics is background irrespective of default_view.
We consider this last detail to be a bug not important enough to block
adding this setting.
This was inaccurate after testing the implementation, and there's an
argument that we shouldn't move it as it will simplify migrating to a
world where (some) private message threads can have topics.
The description of request parameter of update-subscription-settings was
wrongly pasted in yaml and wasn't completely removed from the md file.
Made appropriate fixes in yaml and md file.
Currently, the ID and Type fields didn't have a description,
and weren't being displayed. Added a schema component to add
descriptions, and display on the api page. Fixes part of #15967.
Note that at this point, it's not possible to create moderator users;
this just will make it easier to write tests for logic involving them
as we develop the feature.
The `message_id` was made an `str` object because
the request expected `Dict[str, str]`. The request is now
casted to `Dict[str, Any]` to fix the issue and removed
typecast of `message_id` to str.

Added assertion to check that if a deprecated flag is in a field's
schema, then it should have deprecated mentioned in description
as well, and moved these checks to a separate function.
Fixes part of #15967.
Add new rest api endpoint GET users/{email} for looking up a user by
email, which is useful especially for corporate API applications that
might already have a user's email address.
Fixes#14302.
A few internal fields used for tracking which types of notifications
have already been sent for a given message, like `hander_id` and the
`push_notified` bundle of fields were being incorrectly included in
message events delivered to clients clients.
One could argue these fields might be useful hints to clients, but
because notifications can be triggered later on via
`missedmessage_hook`, they have no useful purpose in the API.
This commit move these extended event field on a `internal_data`
object within the event object, and delete this field in `contents()`
for call points that would serve data to clients.
Tweaked by tabbott to provide a cleaner interface.
We're not bumping API_FEATURE_LEVEL because these fields have always
been documented as being present only due to a bug, so no clients
should be expecting or relying on them.
Fixes: #15947.
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.
The passwords generated for our development environment / test suite
include the `+` character, which needs to be quoted when encoded as an
HTTP POST parameter.
This is hopefully sufficient to fix the CI failures we've seen with
the tests for POST /api/v1/fetch_api_key; I haven't reproduced the
failure so am not completely sure.
Because of the very large `oneOf` clause of the formats of events
possible in Zulip's `GET /events` system, we had issues with
`test-backend` failures for missing documentation for a new event
format being like 1000 lines of output, which was very much unhelpful.
Fix this by limiting the output use only the oneOf variants that are
broadly similar to the actual payload received.
Fixes#16023.
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.
As explained in the previous commit, yamole preprocessed allOf with an
algorithm that is not standards compliant. We replicate that
algorithm, but importantly, we only use it for our own code and not
for building the openapi_core RequestValidator.
This improves the time taken by OpenAPISpec().check_reload() from
1.69s to 0.53s, nearly all of which is inside
openapi_core.create_spec.
Closes#10484. Significantly improves #16068.

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.
