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.
Zulip has had a small use of WebSockets (specifically, for the code
path of sending messages, via the webapp only) since ~2013. We
originally added this use of WebSockets in the hope that the latency
benefits of doing so would allow us to avoid implementing a markdown
local echo; they were not. Further, HTTP/2 may have eliminated the
latency difference we hoped to exploit by using WebSockets in any
case.
While we’d originally imagined using WebSockets for other endpoints,
there was never a good justification for moving more components to the
WebSockets system.
This WebSockets code path had a lot of downsides/complexity,
including:
* The messy hack involving constructing an emulated request object to
hook into doing Django requests.
* The `message_senders` queue processor system, which increases RAM
needs and must be provisioned independently from the rest of the
server).
* A duplicate check_send_receive_time Nagios test specific to
WebSockets.
* The requirement for users to have their firewalls/NATs allow
WebSocket connections, and a setting to disable them for networks
where WebSockets don’t work.
* Dependencies on the SockJS family of libraries, which has at times
been poorly maintained, and periodically throws random JavaScript
exceptions in our production environments without a deep enough
traceback to effectively investigate.
* A total of about 1600 lines of our code related to the feature.
* Increased load on the Tornado system, especially around a Zulip
server restart, and especially for large installations like
zulipchat.com, resulting in extra delay before messages can be sent
again.
As detailed in
https://github.com/zulip/zulip/pull/12862#issuecomment-536152397, it
appears that removing WebSockets moderately increases the time it
takes for the `send_message` API query to return from the server, but
does not significantly change the time between when a message is sent
and when it is received by clients. We don’t understand the reason
for that change (suggesting the possibility of a measurement error),
and even if it is a real change, we consider that potential small
latency regression to be acceptable.
If we later want WebSockets, we’ll likely want to just use Django
Channels.

For a long time, we've been only doing the zxcvbn password strength
checks on the browser, which is helpful, but means users could through
hackery (or a bug in the frontend validation code) manage to set a
too-weak password. We fix this by running our password strength
validation on the backend as well, using python-zxcvbn.
In theory, a bug in python-zxcvbn could result in it producing a
different opinion than the frontend version; if so, it'd be a pretty
bad bug in the library, and hopefully we'd hear about it from users,
report upstream, and get it fixed that way. Alternatively, we can
switch to shelling out to node like we do for KaTeX.
Fixes#6880.
Send the `csrftoken` and `sessionid` cookies with `SameSite=Lax`.
This adds a layer of defense against CSRF attacks and matches the new

The reason that `pip-tools` running on Python 3 didn’t detect the
right requirements for `thumbor` on Python 2 is simply that some of
them are conditional on the Python version.
As for the requirements that had been manually added as a workaround:
`backports-abc` and `singledispatch` are now correctly detected, while
`backports.ssl-match-hostname` was vendored into `urllib3` some time
ago and `certifi` is no longer necessary.

We already had this as an indirect dependency, but now it's going to be
needed to write a decorator for rate limiting authenticate() functions,
so it should be added to common.in.
Fixes#11209.
This requires changing how zadd is used in rate_limiter.py:
In redis-py >= 3.0 the pairs to ZADD need to be passed as a dictionary,
not as *args or **kwargs, as described at
https://pypi.org/project/redis/3.2.1/ in the section
"Upgrading from redis-py 2.X to 3.0".
The rate_limiter change has to be in one commit with the redis upgrade,
because the dict format is not supported before redis-py 3.0.
This replaces the two custom Google authentication backends originally
written in 2012 with using the shared python-social-auth codebase that
we already use for the GitHub authentication backend. These are:
* GoogleMobileOauth2Backend, the ancient code path for mobile
authentication last used by the EOL original Zulip Android app.
* The `finish_google_oauth2` code path in zerver/views/auth.py, which
was the webapp (and modern mobile app) Google authentication code
path.
This change doesn't fix any known bugs; its main benefit is that we
get to remove hundreds of lines of security-sensitive semi-duplicated
code, replacing it with a widely trusted, high quality third-party
library.
If a url doesn't have a scheme, browsers would treat it as a relative
url and open something like: https://chat.zulip.org/google.com instead.
This PR fixes the issue on the backend; the frontend implementation
remains out of sync and the user sending the message wouldn't see
any linkification for urls without a scheme.

This updates recommonmark so that relative links to .md files will

This commit leverages the ahocorasick algorithm to build a set of user_ids
that have their alert_words present in the message. It runs in linear time
of the order of length of the input message as opposed to number of
alert_words. This is after building a ahocorasick Automaton which runs
in O(number of alert_words in entire realm) which is usually cached.
This is a major upgrade, and requires some significant compatibility
work:
* Migrating the pattern-removal logic to use the Registry feature.
* Handling the removal of positional arguments in markdown extensions.
* Handling the removal of safe mode.
Now, if you pass an api_key, we'll initialize the public room
subscribers to be whatever they were at the time the import happened.
Also, document the situation on the caveats section.
Broaden the type of the AbstractEnum __reduce_ex__ parameter to object; this

This optimizes the import performance of Zulip by using a fork of
pkgresources. The fork just has a single commit, which replaces
libthumbor's use of pkgresources (which is really slow to import) with
a direct query to the version number.
This fixes part of #9953.
The autenticate function now follows the signature of
Django 2.0 https://github.com/django-auth-ldap/

Also AUTH_LDAP_CACHE_GROUPS is depricated in favor of
AUTH_LDAP_CACHE_TIMEOUT.
This package is important in order to avoid scary-looking errors
whenever we upgrade the dependencies in thumbor.txt (where
virtualenv-clone isn't installed in the venv, and then gets installed
by the code we just added a TODO comment to.
Bunch of bug fixes.
* Allow non-ascii chars in namedtuple fields (regression
introduced fixing ticket #211).
* Fixed adaptation of arrays of arrays of nulls (ticket #325).
* Fixed building on Solaris 11 and derivatives such as
SmartOS and illumos (ticket #677).
* Maybe fixed building on MSYS2 (as reported in ticket #658).
* Allow string subclasses in connection and other places (ticket #679).
* Don’t raise an exception closing an unused named cursor (ticket #716).
* Wheel package compiled against PostgreSQL 10.4 libpq and OpenSSL 1.0.2o.
Some minor changes.
* Clean up handling for description file - pull in content
from this file into setup()
* Allows the nightly build to fail
* Add Trove version classifiers to make it explicit what
is supported
* Add python_requires to help pip
* Drop support for EOL Python 2.6 and 3.3
We add this dependancy to thumbor for no use other than making an
import possible in one of the upcoming commits. Basically we wanted to
import LOCAL_UPLOADS_DIR from zproject.prod_settings or
zproject.dev_settings and prod_settings_template.py imports
django-auth-ldap (which depends on python-ldap and django).
This seems counterproductive, but it makes it possible for us to save
significant thumbor server startup time that would have been consumed
in `get-django-setting`, and once thumbor supports Python 3, we'll
probably be merging the virtualenvs anyway (in which case this change
would become a no-op).
