This lets us delete some duplicate code, since common_get_active_user
handles an account in the wrong subdomain for us.
Also lets us delete the now-unused common_get_active_user_by_email.
This way, we don't attempt to evaluate whether the user's account is
active (etc.) until after we've checked the backend is enabled. This
won't change the result of actual auth, but feels more readable.
This is a behavior change, though we don't check the value in the
caller regardless. It just seems more logical for us to correctly
report to the caller whether the Google auth itself was valid
unconditionally.
This code path was only required because we had remote_user set as a
positional argument here, and thus we'd be running this auth backend's
code when actually using another auth backend (due to how Django auth
backends are selected based on argument signature).
This require some care to ensure we still provide the same nice error
messages for the case of a user who has an account, just not with this
organization.
Also, we fix the fact that the docstring was (and I think always has
been) at best confusing and perhaps even inaccurate.
Now we have moved the `do_auth` function to `SocialAuthMixin`. Instead
of overriding `do_auth`, derived class is now expected to override
`get_authenticated_user`.
`do_auth` now contains code which is expected by all backends.
Storage limititations are only set on the value of
a config entry, since this is the only user-accessible
part of the schema. Keys are statically set by each
embedded bot.
This endpoint will allow us to add/delete emoji reactions whose emoji
got renamed during various emoji infra changes. This was also a
required change for realm emoji migration.
This commit was tweaked significantly by tabbott for greater clarity
(with no changes to the actual logic).
Note from tabbott: While this initial version is experimental and
definitely incomplete, we expect to have a solid version done over the
next few weeks (after more refactoring). We're merging this now to
make it easy to test both versions when refactoring our CSS.
Fixes#267.
These are new:
new-user-bot
emailgateway
Our cross-realm bots are hard coded to have email addresses
in the `zulip.com` domain, and they're not part of ordinary
realms.
These have always been cross-realm, but new enforcement in the
frontend code of all messages having been sent by a known user means
that it's important to add these properly.
The warning here means that the admin can't really act on this yet if
they want to disable email auth, which is likely among admins that
want to make any changes here. And for admins who don't, this is an
extra thing to read and make a decision about before they can get a
server running. See #6985.
Conversely, we already discuss auth backends right at the top of the
`prod-customize` doc, which is linked under "Next steps" at the end of
these instructions.
The warning about EmailAuthBackend is important; but we can move it to
the config file right next to the setting, and then it's available
right when it's actionable, which is if the admin is actually thinking
about changing the setting.
For some historical reason we'd had the Postgres documentation on
valid SSL modes copied into the Zulip settings.py template file. This
fixes that historical artifact.
This change prepares us to have the server send avatar_url
of None when somebody wants a gravatar avatar (as opposed
to a user-uploaded one).
Subsequent commits will change behavior on both the server
and client to have this happen. So this commit has no-op
code for now, but it will soon use the fallback-to-gravatar
logic.
The control panel on the Google side doesn't seem to match the
instructions we have; it looks pretty 2017 to me, so I imagine
it's had a redesign since the instructions were written.
Also, in dev, EXTERNAL_HOST is now a port on zulipdev.com, not on
localhost.
Update these instructions for those developments, and edit lightly.
In dev, recommend setting in `dev_settings` instead of in
`prod_settings_template`; that feels to me a little more reflective of
the actual intent, and the effect should be equivalent.
The main limitation of this version is that it's controlled entirely
from settings, with nothing in the database and no web UI or even
management command to control it. That makes it a bit more of a
burden for the server admins than it'd ideally be, but that's fine
for now.
Relatedly, the web flow for realm creation still requires choosing a
subdomain even if the realm is destined to live at an alias domain.
Specific to the dev environment, there is an annoying quirk: the
special dev login flow doesn't work on a REALM_HOSTS realm. Also,
in this version the `add_new_realm` and `add_new_user` management
commands, which are intended for use in development environments only,
don't support this feature.
In manual testing, I've confirmed that a REALM_HOSTS realm works for
signup and login, with email/password, Google SSO, or GitHub SSO.
Most of that was in dev; I used zulipstaging.com to also test
* logging in with email and password;
* logging in with Google SSO... far enough to correctly determine
that my email address is associated with some other realm.
This means one fewer thing the admin typically needs to read, absorb,
and make a decision about at install time.
The one way this change could hypothetically cause trouble is if the
admin wants to keep subdomains of EXTERNAL_HOST out of ALLOWED_HOSTS.
But while the subdomains often won't exist as domain names, it's hard
to imagine the situation in which they would exist but be under
someone else's control, or be doing something other than serving
Zulip realms.
This commit allows for the /api-new/ page to rendered similarly to our
/help pages. It's based on the old content for /api, but we're not
replacing the old content yet, to give a bit of time to restructure
things reasonably.
Tweaked by eeshangarg and tabbott.
This was part of the logic to handle EXTERNAL_API_PATH varying.
But also it was already no longer used -- it was only ever passed
into template contexts, as `external_api_uri`, and it'd been
overtaken there by `external_api_uri_subdomain`.
So, update our dev docs to reflect that, and eliminate the variable.
This setting isn't documented at all, and I believe nobody has used it
since the end of api.zulip.com in 2016. So we get to complete the
cleanup of this logic.
The HelpView class will render a directory as markdown with an index HTML
page. This however can also be used for other generics and applied to
the API pages as well, so change the class to a generic class and
specify the path templates and names.
Tweaked by tabbott and Eeshan Garg.
Our set_loglevel tool didn't set propagate to False, so just using it
directly wouldn't work unless the logger is explcitly declared in
zproject/settings.py, which this one isn't.
The cookie mechanism only works when passing the login token to a
subdomain. URLs work across domains, which is why they're the
standard transport for SSO on the web. Switch to URLs.
Tweaked by tabbott to add a test for an expired token.
Most of these have more to do with authentication in general than with
registering a new account. `create_preregistration_user` could go
either way; we move it to `auth` so we can make the imports go only in
one direction.
Lets administrators view a list of open(unconfirmed) invitations and
resend or revoke a chosen invitation.
There are a few changes that we can expect for the future:
* It is currently possible to invite an email that you have already
invited, it might make sense to change this behavior.
* Resend currently sends an invite reminder instead of resending the
original invite, this is because 'custom_body' was not stored when
the first invite was sent.
Tweaked in various minor ways, primarily in the backend, by tabbott,
mostly for style consistency with the rest of the codebase.
Fixes: #1180.
Now that every call site of check_subdomain produces its second
argument in exactly the same way, push that shared bit of logic
into a new wrapper for check_subdomain.
Also give that new function a name that says more specifically what
it's checking -- which I think is easier to articulate for this
interface than for that of check_subdomain.
Adds support to add "Embedded bot" Service objects. This service
handles every embedded bot.
Extracted from "Embedded bots: Add support to add embedded bots from
UI" by Robert Honig.
Tweaked by tabbott to be disabled by default.
This should help prevent confusion where new users find themselves on
the LDAP login form and click "register" because they know they don't
have an account. Whereas in fact, their account will be auto-created
if they just login, so there's no need for them to access it.
This fixes a problem we've seen where LDAP users were not getting this
part of the onboarding process, and a similar problem for human users
created via the API.
Ideally, we would have put these fixes in process_new_human_user, but
that would cause import loop problems.
The rules here are fuzzy, and it's quite possible none of Zulip's emails
need an address at all. Every country has its own rules though, which makes
it hard to tell. In general, transactional emails do not need an address,
and marketing emails do.
This is a two-step notifications process that will ask a user
to enable notifications and if they click exit give them three
options:
1. Enable notifications.
2. Ask later.
3. Never ask on this computer again.
The first two are self-explanatory (ask later = next session it
asks again). The third is captured and stored in localStorage and
a check is done on page load to see whether or not notifications
should be displayed.
Commit modified heavily by Brock Whittaker <brock@zulipchat.com>.
Fixes#1189.
By default, Django sets up two handlers on this logger, one of them
its AdminEmailHandler. We have our own handler for sending email on
error, and we want to stick to that -- we like the format somewhat
better, and crucially we've given it some rate-limiting through
ZulipLimiter.
Since we cleaned out our logging config in e0a5e6fad, though, we've
been sending error emails through both paths. The config we'd had
before that for `django` was redundant with the config on the root --
but having *a* config there was essential for causing
`logging.config.dictConfig`, when Django passes it our LOGGING dict,
to clear out that logger's previous config. So, give it an empty
config.
Django by default configures two loggers: `django` and
`django.server`. We have our own settings for `django.server`
anyway, so this is the only one we need to add.
The stdlib `logging` and `logging.config` docs aren't 100% clear, and
while the source of `logging` is admirably straightforward the source
of `logging.config` is a little twisty, so it's not easy to become
totally confident that this has the right effect just by reading.
Fortunately we can put some of that source-diving to work in writing
a test for it.
This works around a bug in Django in handling the error case of a
client sending an inappropriate HTTP `Host:` header. Various
internal Django machinery expects to be able to casually call
`request.get_host()`, which will attempt to parse that header, so an
exception will be raised. The exception-handling machinery attempts
to catch that exception and just turn it into a 400 response... but
in a certain case, that machinery itself ends up trying to call
`request.get_host()`, and we end up with an uncaught exception that
causes a 500 response, a chain of tracebacks in the logs, and an email
to the server admins. See example below.
That `request.get_host` call comes in the midst of some CSRF-related
middleware, which doesn't even serve any function unless you have a
form in your 400 response page that you want CSRF protection for.
We use the default 400 response page, which is a 26-byte static
HTML error message. So, just send that with no further ado.

Apparently, this sockjs.tornado logging code resulted in a lot of
buggy error emails whenever a Zulip browser tried to reconnect on a
new IP. I don't see an obvious way to suppress them from within
sockjs, but that might be a good follow-up issue.
Fixes#6959.
The comment is pretty self-explanatory. The fact that Google Compute
Engine has this problem does not impress confidence about their
product, but hopefully this is the only really dumb thing they do.
Fixes#4839.
The original "quality score" was invented purely for populating
our password-strength progress bar, and isn't expressed in terms
that are particularly meaningful. For configuration and the core
accept/reject logic, it's better to use units that are readily
understood. Switch to those.
I considered using "bits of entropy", defined loosely as the log
of this number, but both the zxcvbn paper and the linked CACM
article (which I recommend!) are written in terms of the number
of guesses. And reading (most of) those two papers made me
less happy about referring to "entropy" in our terminology.
I already knew that notion was a little fuzzy if looked at
too closely, and I gained a better appreciation of how it's
contributed to confusion in discussing password policies and
to adoption of perverse policies that favor "Password1!" over
"derived unusual ravioli raft". So, "guesses" it is.
And although the log is handy for some analysis purposes
(certainly for a graph like those in the zxcvbn paper), it adds
a layer of abstraction, and I think makes it harder to think
clearly about attacks, especially in the online setting. So
just use the actual number, and if someone wants to set a
gigantic value, they will have the pleasure of seeing just
how many digits are involved.
(Thanks to @YJDave for a prototype that the code changes in this
commit are based on.)
This endpoint is part of the old tutorial, which we've removed, and
has some security downsides as well.
This includes a minor refactoring of the tests.
Create a new custom email backend which would automatically
logs the emails that are send in the dev environment as
well as print a friendly message in console to visit /emails
for accessing all the emails that are sent in dev environment.
Since django.core.mail.backends.console.EmailBackend is no longer
userd emails would not be printed to the console anymore.
In 1.2.15 version of django-auth-ldap, the authenticate() function of
LDAPBackend takes username and password as keyword arguments. This
commit updates the code to match this change.
Fixes#6588
It turns out that very little code change is required to support
GitHub auth on mobile. Ideally, this would come with tests, though
the complicated part of the code path is covered by the Google auth
version. But writing a test for this would take a long time, and I
think it's worth having the feature now, so I'll be doing tests as a
follow-up project.
The main change here is moving SOCIAL_AUTH_FIELDS_STORED_IN_SESSION to
be with the other hardcoded settings, since it's not something that
makes sense for a sysadmin to change. But while we're at it, we also
group the overall social auth settings separately from the
GitHub-specific settings.
This isn't something that a user can ever modify, so it doesn't belong
in DEFAULT_SETTINGS. While we're at it, we align the appearance of
the email gateway in the docs with whether this setting in the docs
will be valid.
This will help identify the settings that need attention: either
to remove, or to document for server admins, or to just add a
comment to explain.
Identified with the following shell "one-liner" (one 313-char line
as I originally ran it; indentation added here for clarity):
perl -lne 'next unless (/^DEFAULT_SETTINGS/../\}\)?$/);
next unless (/'\''(.*?)'\''/);
print $1' \
zproject/settings.py \
| while read var; do \
echo -n "$var: "; \
(grep -lw "$var" zproject/{prod_settings_template,{dev,test}_settings}.py \
|| echo none) \
| sed s,zproject/,,g \
| fmt -w1000; \
done
This doesn't yet do much, but it gives us a suitable place to
add code to customize how log messages are displayed, beyond what
a format string passed to the default formatter can do.
This should make it a little easier to understand our logging config
and make changes to it with confidence.
Many of these items that are now redundant used to be required when we
were setting disable_existing_loggers to True (before 500d81bf2), in
order to exempt those loggers from being cleared out. Now they're not.
One bit of test code needed a tweak to how it got its hands on the
AdminZulipHandler instance; it can do it from the list on the root
logger just as well as on the `django` logger.
Most of the paths leading through this except clause were cut in
73e8bba37 "ldap auth: Reassure django_auth_ldap". The remaining one
had no test coverage -- the case that leads to it had a narrow unit
test, but no test had the exception actually propagate here. As a
result, the clause was mistakenly cut, in commit
8d7f961a6 "LDAP: Remove now-impossible except clause.", which could
lead to an uncaught exception in production.
Restore the except clause, and add a test for it.
Since we made ZulipLDAPException a subclass of
_LDAPUser.AuthenticationFailed, the django-auth-ldap library already
handles catching it and returning None.
This fixes missing test coverage in this function introduced by
73e8bba379.
This was giving a couple of lines of logs on every normal,
successful connection -- clearly a job for DEBUG, but emitted
on INFO. Quiet it down.
Fixes#6674.
The main `authenticate` method in the django_auth_ldap package logs a message
at `exception` level if it passes through an exception it wasn't expecting.
Sensible practice, but we'd been passing through just such an exception for
any kind of routine authentication failure. After we recently stopped suppressing
an arbitrary subset of loggers with `disable_existing_loggers`, these started
showing up noisily, including in tests.
So, make our exceptions expected. Just like our own code, the upstream code
raises exceptions of a particular type for routine auth failures, and catches
them and just returns None. We make our type derive from that one, so as to
just piggyback on that behavior.
Fixes an issue reported in a comment to #6674.
The `disable_existing_loggers` option to the `logging.config` module
turns on a rather complicated behavior of disabling some, but not all,
loggers that might have been already configured when the call to
`logging.config.dictConfig` or `logging.config.fileConfig` is made:
> This behaviour is to disable any existing loggers unless they or
> their ancestors are explicitly named in the logging configuration.
(https://docs.python.org/3/library/logging.config)
Turns out the only reason this is there is as a compatibility hack to
match the behavior of Python 2.4 and below. See the thread where the
new behavior was introduced: https://bugs.python.org/issue3136
Just as the author of the new behavior explains in that thread from
2008, the legacy behavior forces all logging configuration to be
awkwardly centralized in one place. That makes the code harder to
read, and it perennially causes confusion when a perfectly
normal-looking `logging.getLogger` call at the top level of one module
mysteriously has no effect, while that in another module works fine,
under the influence of the details of what gets imported when.
So, switch to the shiny new behavior of Python 2.5. Here LOGGING is a
Django setting which just becomes an argument to logging.config.dictConfig.
This may cause a few of the logfiles in ZULIP_PATHS to become active
that have been dormant for a long time.
This change means that almost every Zulip server out there will now be
using subdomains for every realm. There are a few complications noted
in the release notes.
This commit implements support for copying over static files
for all bots in the zulip_bots package to
static/generated/bots/ during provisioning. This directory
isn't tracked by Git. This allows us to have access to files
stored in an arbitrary zulip_bots package directory somewhere
on the system. For now, logo.* and doc.md files are copied over.
This commit should act as a starting point for extending our
macro-based Markdown framework to our bots/API packages'
documentation and eventually rendering these static files
alongside our webhooks' documentation.
The motivation for this is that we'll want to use the STATIC_ROOT
variable in this code in the upcoming commits.
While we're at it, we give it a proper section in the file.
This enforces our use of a consistent style in how we access Python
modules; "from os.path import dirname" is a particularly popular
abbreviation inconsistent with our style, and so it deserves a lint
rule.
Commit message and error text tweaked by tabbott.
Fixes#6543.
This commit enables user to authenticate with any attribute set in
AUTH_LDAP_USER_SEARCH given that LDAP_EMAIL_ATTR is set to an email
attributes in the ldap server. Thus email and username can be
completely unrelated.
With some tweaks by tabbott to squash in the documentation and make it
work on older servers.
This is necessary for tests the to pass with the new config_error code
path, which we don't want to trigger except on specific tests for
those features.
Since we're auto-detecting the value anyway, there's no reason it
can't be moved to DEFAULT_SETTINGS.
This lets us remove some clutter from the installation documentation.
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.
The new endpoints are:
/json/mark_stream_as_read: takes stream name
/json/mark_topic_as_read: takes stream name, topic name
The /json/flags endpoint no longer allows streams or topics
to be passed in as parameters.
With this change, we get as far as printing the message
"APNS: Sending apple push notification to devices" to the
log when a recent TestFlight build of the app is due for
a notification, and then don't hit an exception. But
on the other hand I still don't get an actual notification
on my phone, so there's still some debugging to do.
Here are the functions in top_left_corner:
get_global_filter_li: pure code move
update_count_in_dom: simplifed copy of similar function in stream_list.js
update_dom_with_unread_counts: pure code move, split out from function
of same name in stream_list.js
delselect_top_left_corner_items: pure code move
handle_narrow_activated: pure code move + rename
handle_narrow_deactivated: pure code move, split out from from function
of smae name in stream_list.js
I was too hasty in pushing this -- it looks right logically, but it
breaks a test. May not be hard to fix forward, but reverting now to
unbreak the build in master.
This reverts commit 02acd467b4.
This change simplifies how we mark all messages as read. It also
speeds up the backend by taking advantage of our partial index
for unread messages. We also use a new statsd indicator.
This commit extract send_messages.js to clean up code related
to the following things:
* sending data to /json/report_send_time
* restarting the event loop if events don't arrive on time
The code related to /json/report changes the following ways:
* We track the state almost completely in the new
send_messages.js module, with other modules just
making one-line calls.
* We no longer send "displayed" times to the servers, since
we were kind of lying about them anyway.
* We now explicitly track the state of each single sent
message in its own object.
* We now look up data related to the messages by local_id,
instead of message_id. The problem with message_id was
that is was mutable. Now we use local_id, and we extend
the local_id concept to messages that don't get rendered
client side. We no longer need to react to the
'message_id_changed' event to change our hash key.
* The code used to live in many places:
* various big chunks were scattered among compose.js,
and those were all moved or reduced to one-line
calls into the new module
* echo.js continues to make basically one-line calls,
but it no longer calls compose.report_as_received(),
nor does it set the "start" time.
* message_util.js used to report received events, but
only when they finally got drawn in the home view;
this code is gone now
The code related to restarting the event loop if events don't arrive
changes as follows:
* The timer now gets set up from within
send_messages.message_state.report_server_ack,
where we can easily inspect the current state of the
possibly-still-in-flight message.
* The code to confirm that an event was received happens now
in server_events.js, rather than later, so that we don't
falsely blame the event loop for a downstream bug. (Plus
it's easier to just do it one place.)
This change removes a fair amount of code from our node tests. Some
of the removal is good stuff related to us completing killing off
unnecessary code. Other removals are more expediency-driven, and
we should make another sweep at ramping up our coverage on compose.js,
with possibly a little more mocking of the new `send_messages` code
layer, since it's now abstracted better.
There is also some minor cleanup to echo.resend_message() in this
commit.
See #5968 for a detailed breakdown of the changes.
This file hasn't reflected the actual configuration of any live
installation for some time, nor been part of any tests or other
mechanism to regularly validate it, so it's naturally fallen
behind as we make changes to the set of settings and typically
don't update this file accordingly. Just remove it; all the
documentation functions it serves are already served just as
well by prod_settings_template.py and its ample comments.
Apparently, the filters implementation was doing some sort of strange
caching, where you would need to restart the server in order to
refresh for changes to the markdown content.
We fix this by switching to just calling the render_markdown_path
function from Jinja2.
Fixes#5974.
This completes the major endpoint migrations to eliminate legacy API
endpoints from Zulip.
There's a few other things that will happen naturally, so I believe
this fixes#611.
This new module tracks the recent topic names for any given
stream.
The code was pulled over almost verbatim from stream_data.js,
with minor renames to the function names.
We introduced a minor one-line function called stream_has_topics.
The whole thing is an error, so "message" is a more apt word for the
error message specifically. We abbreviate that as `msg` in the actual
HTTP responses and in the signatures of `json_error` and friends, so
do the same here.
static/ serves static files which get copied around per deploy. Since
the webpack stats files need a consistent name and change per deploy,
they can't live in static/.
This fixes a bug that preventing downgrading a Zulip server to an old
version.
I pushed a bunch of commits that attempted to introduce
the concept of `client_message_id` into our server, as
part of cleaning up our codepaths related to messages you
sent (both for the locally echoed case and for the host
case).
When we deployed this, we had some strange failures involving
double-echoed messages and issues advancing the pointer that appeared
related to #5779. We didn't get to the bottom of exactly why the PR
caused havoc, but I decided there was a cleaner approach, anyway.
This is mostly straightforward moving of code out of compose.js.
The code that was moved currently supports sending time
reports for sent messages, but we intend to grow out the new
module to track more state about sent messages.
The following function names in this commit are new, but their
code was basically pulled over verbatim:
process_success (was process_send_time)
set_timer_for_restarting_event_loop
clear
initialize
All the code in the new module is covered by previous tests that
had been written for compose.js. This commit only modifies
a few things to keep those tests.
The new module has 100% node coverage, so we updated `enforce_fully_covered`.
Prior to this commit, 7 megabytes of images (through 253 individual requests)
were heavily slowing down the initial load. With this commit, we load only the
logos (60 or so images).
Documentation and images for the individual integration sub-pages is requested
separately using the /integrations/doc/ endpoint, which returns HTML.
This redesigns the /help/ page sets to be a single page app that uses
history.pushState to work the same as the old app.
The big new feature is that now we have the index in a nicely designed
left sidebar.
Django 1.11 adds the ability to pass context processors in Jinja2
backend. Django also sends template_rendered signal in tests.
These two issues were the reason why we added Jinja2 backend, but
after upgrading to Django 1.11 we can remove it.
We still need jinja2/__init__.py, which modifies the environment,
and jinja2/compressors.py, which adds minify_js compressor.
Django started supporting context processors from version 1.11; as
a result of this, we can get rid of some of the code which is now
being taken care of by Django.
This system hasn't been in active use for several years, and had some
problems with it's design. So it makes sense to just remove it to declutter
the codebase.
Fixes#5655.
This commit removes the ability to configure different validity durations
for different types of confirmation links. I don't think the extra
configurability was worth the extra complexity, either for the user trying
to understand the settings, or for the developer trying to understand the
code.
The commit replaces all confirmation validity duration settings with a
single setting, settings.EMAIL_CONFIRMATION_DAYS.
The only setting it removes is settings.EMAIL_CHANGE_CONFIRMATION_DAYS,
which was introduced in 5bf83f9 and never advertised in prod_settings.py.
This will allow for customized senders for emails, e.g. 'Zulip Digest' for
digest emails and 'Zulip Missed Messages' for missed message emails.
Also:
* Converts the sender name to always be "Zulip", if the from_email used to
be settings.NOREPLY_EMAIL_ADDRESS or settings.ZULIP_ADMINISTRATOR.
* Changes the default value of settings.NOREPLY_EMAIL_ADDRESS in the
prod_setting_template to no longer have a display name. The only use of
that display name was in the email pathway.
This old third party library added support
for a "mousewheel" event to detect scrolling.
However, it is not compatible with jQuery 3
and is obsolete now that there is a standard
"wheel" event that accomplishes the same thing.
