We were doing an unnecessary database query on every user registration
checking the availability of the user's subdomain, when in fact this
is only required for realm creation.
This removes sender names from the message cache, since
they aren't guaranteed to be valid, and they're inexpensive
to add.
This commit will make the message cache entries smaller
by removing sender___full_name and sender__short_name
fields.
Then we add in the sender fields to the message payloads
by doing a query against the unique sender ids of the
messages we are processing.
This change leads to 2 extra database hops for most of
our message-related codepaths. The reason there are 2 hops
instead of 1 is that we basically re-calculate way too
much data to get a no-markdown dictionary.
This commit prepares us to introduce a StreamLite class. For
these tests, we don't care about the actual contents of the
Stream, just the right stream is there.
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.
These arguments are only intended to be used for realm creation, and
they make the code more confusing.
We need to make a few changes after doing this, because some tests
were relying on these extra arguments causing the form to not submit
for their error handling.
We don't apply these changes to the LDAP tests, since fixing those
seems complicated.
Previously, invitation reminder emails were only being cleared after a
successful signup if newsletter_data was available, since that was the
circumstance in which we were calling the relevant queue processor
code. Now, we (1) clear them when a human user finishes signing up
and (2) correctly clear them using the 'address' field of
ScheduleEmail, not user_id.
This commit makes get_recipient_info() faster by never creating
Django ORM objects. We use the ORM to create a values query
instead, and then we iterate over the rows to create various
collections of ids.
In order to avoid lots of code duplication, this commit unifies
how we query UserProfile for PMs and streams. Prior to this
commit we were getting "wide" UserProfile objects out of
our memcached cache. Now we just go to the database with our
list of userids. The new approach at worst adds one hop to the
database for PMs, which aren't really a performance bottleneck
(compared to streams). And the new approach actually saves a
hop when both partners aren't in cache (plus we don't pay the
penalty of hitting the cache itself).
The performance improvement here is easy to measure for messages
to streams with many users, even with all the other activity
that goes on inside do_send_messages(). I took test_performance()
in test_messages.py, set num_extra_users to 3000, and consistently
measured a ~20% speedup in do_send_messages().
This commit also eliminates fetching of emails. We probably
could have done that in a prior commit, but in this commit it
is very explicit that we don't need it. While removing email
from the query is a no-brainer, it actually had a negigible
impact on performance. Almost all the savings here comes from
not create UserProfile objects.
Usually a small minority of users are eligible to receive missed
message emails or mobile notifications.
We now filter users first before hitting UserPresence to find idle
users. We also simply check for the existence of recent activity
rather than borrowing the more complicated data structures that we
use for the buddy list.
Use this new variable to determine if the user already exists while
doing registration. While doing login through GitHub if we press
*Go back to login*, we pass email using email variable. As a result,
the login page starts showing the "User already exists error" if we
don't change the variable.
Previously, Zulip's server logs would not show which user or client
was involved in login or user registration actions, which made
debugging more annoying than it needed to be.
This should significantly improve the user experience for new users
signing up with GitHub/Google auth. It comes complete with tests for
the various cases. Further work may be needed for LDAP to not prompt
for a password, however.
Fixes#886.
ScheduledJob was written for much more generality than it ended up being
used for. Currently it is used by send_future_email, and nothing
else. Tailoring the model to emails in particular will make it easier to do
things like selectively clear emails when people unsubscribe from particular
email types, or seamlessly handle using the same email on multiple realms.
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.
No change in behavior.
Also makes the first step towards converting all uses of
settings.ZULIP_ADMINISTRATOR and settings.NOREPLY_EMAIL_ADDRESS to
FromAddress.*.
Once everything is converted, it will be easier to ensure that future
development doesn't break backwards compatibility with the old style of
settings emails.
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.
Once we implement org_type-specific features, it'll be easy to change a
corporate realm to a community realm, but hard to go the other way. The main
difference (the main thing that makes migrating from a community realm to a
corporate realm hard) is that you'd have to make everyone sign another terms
of service.
Previously, the only required field in RegistrationForm was the full
name (and possibly ToS, depending on settings). This meant that if
LDAP was configured, realm creation would break, because the form
would be valid the first time one landed on it, before the user even
filled it out!
The correct fix is to make the extra fields required in
RegistrationForm in the event that we're doing realm creation.
It's possible that a cleaner fix would be to use a subclass.
With a test from Umair Waheed Khan.
Fixes#5387.
Server settings should just be added to the context in build_email, so that
the individual email pathways (and later, the email testing framework)
doesn't have to worry about it.
Previously, we were incorrectly using the get_unique_open_realm
function to determine whether we're in the (common) single-realm
server case and should just display an org-info-enabled login form on
the homepage.
Now, we use a slightly different function extracted from
get_unique_open_realm that doesn't check whether the realm is
invite-only.
Fixes#4841.
This is CVE-2017-0896.
Apparently, this setting never actually was wired up to anything other
than hiding the UI widget.
Huge thanks to Ibram Marzouk from the HackerOne community for finding
this security bug.
We now pre-populate the streams in DEFAULT_NEW_REALM_STREAMS
(social/general/zulip, unless somebody changes settings.py) with
welcome messages. This makes the streams appear to be active
right away, and it also gives the Zulip realm less of a
blank-slate feeling when you create it.
This change only affects the normal web-based create-realm flow.
It doesn't impact the management commands for creating realms
or setting default streams.
These handlers will kick into action when is_signup is False. In case
the account exists, the user will be logged in, otherwise, user will
be asked if they want to proceed to registration.
The example_user() function is specifically designed for
AARON, hamlet, cordelia, and friends, and it allows a concise
way of using their built-in user profiles. Eventually, the
widespread use of example_user() should help us with refactorings
such as moving the tests users out of the "zulip.com" realm
and deprecating get_user_profile_by_email.
This commit is a step towards the goal of replacing most of the
send_future_email pathway with a call to send_email.
Note that this commit changes the default value of sender from "Zulip
<NOREPLY_EMAIL_ADDRESS>" to "NOREPLY_EMAIL_ADDRESS". NOREPLY_EMAIL_ADDRESS
will soon be changed to have the Zulip in front.
Note that the correctness of this commit relies on the fact that
send_future_email also sets the sender to settings.NOREPLY_EMAIL_ADDRESS by
default (in the body of the function).
Fixes regression introduced in 326f9a85. The test indirectly makes a call to
email_is_not_mit_mailing_list, which then calls
DNS.dnslookup("%s.pobox.ns.athena.mit.edu" % username, DNS.Type.TXT).
If a user is trying to register for a mit zephyr mirroring realm, we send
them a specific registration email with a link to a few more instructions.
There is only one server that we know about that has such a realm, and that
server uses subdomains. This commit changes the logic to work in the
subdomains case, rather than in the non-subdomains case (though see next
para).
Note that the current check is deceptive, and is not actually correct in the
non-subdomains case. The prereg user has a realm only in the atypical case
of someone registering via the special URL for completely-open realms.
To do this correctly in the non-subdomains case, we would need to copy a
bunch of the logic from the beginning of accounts_register to figure out
which realm the user is signing up for, so that we can check if that realm
is a zephyr mirroring realm. Given how complicated the registration code is
already, I think it is probably not worth it at the moment. This commit also
removes the partial (deceptive) check, since I think it does more harm than
good.
We'll need to implement a version of the simple decoding/decryption
logic used by this library in the mobile code as well, but that should
be simple enough.
This completes a major redesign of the Zulip login and registration
pages, making them look much more slick and modern.
Major features include:
* Display of the realm name, description and icon on the login page
and registration pages in the subdomains case.
* Much slicker looking buttons and input fields.
* A new overall style for the exterior of these portico pages.
This fixes a confusing issue where a user might try resetting the
password for an email account that in part of a different Zulip
organization.
Is a useful early step towards making Zulip support reusing an email
in multiple realms.
Fixes: #4557.
In this commit we add a logout wrapper so as to enable developers
to just do self.logout instead of doing a post request at API
endpoint for logout. This is achieved by adding a wrapper function
for the Django's client.logout contained in TestCase. We add this
by extending ZulipTestCase to have a logout function.
zerver/lib/actions: removed do_set_realm_* functions and added
do_set_realm_property, which takes in a realm object and the name and
value of an attribute to update on that realm.
zerver/tests/test_events.py: refactored realm tests with
do_set_realm_property.
Kept the do_set_realm_authentication_methods and
do_set_realm_message_editing functions because their function
signatures are different.
Addresses part of issue #3854.
Changing assert_in_success_response to require List[Text] instead of
Iterable[Text] prevents the following misuse:
self.assert_in_response_success("message", response)
Currently, this will check whether 'm', 'e', 's', 'a', and 'g' separately
appear in the response, which is probably not the intended behavior. The
correct usage is as follows:
self.assert_in_response_success(["message"], response)
datetime.utcnow() is a timezone-naive datetime. The Django ORM interprets it
in the settings.TIME_ZONE timezone (e.g. 'America/New_York' in the
development server). We perhaps haven't noticed errors yet since with
'America/New_York' all it means is that emails are sent 5 hours early, or a
slightly different set of messages are included in the digest.
This makes life a lot easier for people inviting users to a new Zulip
organization, since they can give some form of context now.
Modified by tabbott to clean up CSS, backend code flow, and improve
the formatting of the emails.
Fixes: #1409.
I believe this completes the project of ensuring that our recent work
on limiting what characters can appears in users' full names covers
the entire codebase.
The realm with string_id of "simple" just has three users
named alice, bob, and cindy for now. It is useful for testing
scenarios where realms don't have special zulip.com exception
handling.
- Change `stream_name` into `stream_id` on some API endpoints that use
`stream_name` in their URLs to prevent confusion of `views` selection.
For example:
If the stream name is "foo/members", the URL would be trigger
"^streams/(?P<stream_name>.*)/members$" and it would be confusing because
we intend to use the endpoint with "^streams/(?P<stream_name>.*)$" regex.
All stream-related endpoints now use stream id instead of stream name,
except for a single endpoint that lets you convert stream names to stream ids.
See https://github.com/zulip/zulip/issues/2930#issuecomment-269576231
- Add `get_stream_id()` method to Zulip API client, and change
`get_subscribers()` method to comply with the new stream API
(replace `stream_name` with `stream_id`).
Fixes#2930.
Previously, test_failed_signup_due_to_restricted_domain used a realm with
restricted domains, but also with invite_required = True. We didn't have a
test that tested for a failed signup in an open realm with restricted
domain, so edited test_failed_signup_due_to_restricted_domain to test for
that.
