Previously lister.py used to check whether the exclude path is a
substring of a path being considered. So it would fail when the
exclude path is an absolute path or uses '..' or '.'.
We need to update provision.py to compile the messages files, since
they are needed for the new i18n tests. And of course we need to
include the .mo files in release tarballs; there's a bit of complexity
there around how the tarball archives are created.
This results in a substantial performance improvement for all of
Zulip's backend templates.
Changes in templates:
- Change `block.super` to `super()`.
- Remove `load` tag because Jinja2 doesn't support it.
- Use `minified_js()|safe` instead of `{% minified_js %}`.
- Use `compressed_css()|safe` instead of `{% compressed_css %}`.
- `forloop.first` -> `loop.first`.
- Use `{{ csrf_input }}` instead of `{% csrf_token %}`.
- Use `{# ... #}` instead of `{% comment %}`.
- Use `url()` instead of `{% url %}`.
- Use `_()` instead of `{% trans %}` because in Jinja `trans` is a block tag.
- Use `{% trans %}` instead of `{% blocktrans %}`.
- Use `{% raw %}` instead of `{% verbatim %}`.
Changes in tools:
- Check for `trans` block in `check-templates` instead of `blocktrans`
Changes in backend:
- Create custom `render_to_response` function which takes `request` objects
instead of `RequestContext` object. There are two reasons to do this:
1. `RequestContext` is not compatible with Jinja2
2. `RequestContext` in `render_to_response` is deprecated.
- Add Jinja2 related support files in zproject/jinja2 directory. It
includes a custom backend and a template renderer, compressors for js
and css and Jinja2 environment handler.
- Enable `slugify` and `pluralize` filters in Jinja2 environment.
Fixes#620.
This makes mypy about 15% faster running on the Zulip codebase (from
7s=>6s on my laptop), which seems worth it for losing a couple files.
This option requires a new dependency, which we add to the
mypy-specific requirements.txt file.
Also update the mypy command line to not use deprecated argument names.
This introduces a few errors, so we exclude the relevant files to keep
the mypy output clean.
Camo is a caching image proxy, used in Zulip to avoid mixed-content
warnings by proxying HTTP image content over HTTPS. We've been using
it in zulip.com production for years; this change makes it available
in standalone Zulip deployments.
This should save several minutes off the Travis CI `production`
suite's runtime, since previously we were doing the full apt upgrade
process twice, resulting in things like multiple expensive rebuilds of
the initramfs.
Add 'six' to setup-py3k, because it is being used in tools/lister.py.
Add 'typing' to setup-py3k, so that tools/lister.py can be type
annotated in the future.
