Zulip converts :) to the 1F642 Unicode emoji and promotes the same emoji
in the popular section of the emoji picker.
Previously Zulip has labeled 1F642 as "slight smile". While that name
conforms to the Unicode standard (which describes the code point as
SLIGHTLY SMILING FACE), it didn't match our use case of the emoji.
If a user types :) or selects the first smile in the emoji picker they
probably mean to express a regular "smile" and not a "slight smile",
which raises the question why they are only smiling slightly.
This commit relabels 1F642 as 😄 and our previous 😄 263A as
:smiling_face:. Note that 263A looks different in our three supported
emoji sets, so it is not suited to be our "default smile".
This change does not require a migration since our emoji system stores
both unicode points and names and handles name changes transparently.
Zulip Desktop version 5.3.0 only supported adding custom certificates
inside the application. Starting in version 5.4.0, it also supports
reading from the system certificate store; in the next release (likely
5.5.0) the support for the internal store will be removed.
Document the change, and add explicit instructions on how to add
certificates into the system store on each of the operating systems.

When you post to /json/users, we no longer
require or look at the short_name parameter,
since we don't use it in any meaningful way.
An upcoming commit will eliminate it from the
database.
Prior to commit eb4a2b9d4e the center
area of the navbar was based on a structure that appended crumbs or
"tabs" as <li>s, forming a tab_bar and a tab_list.
However, in eb4a2b9d4e we apply a new
style and structure to the navbar which lets go of the convention of
tabs. Hence, we'd like to purge the tab_bar and tab_list labels from
our code base. This commit pushes us towards that goal.
Previously, this element was part of both searchbox and
searchbox_legacy of which, only one would render based on the flag on
search pills. This wasn't great because:
* it made it likely that someone would change only one of the two and
unintentionally introduce regressions.
* it meant that search_icon selectors within the searchbox would mess
with the search_icon elements within the tab_bar, leading us to rely
on messy CSS overriding.
Since there doesn't seem to be a strong reason to have this be the way
it previously was, this commit extracts "#tab_bar".
It's worth keeping in mind that we use the "#tab_bar" element as an
anchor to append the #tab_list onto.
This particular commit has been a long time coming. For reference,
!avatar(email) was an undocumented syntax that simply rendered an
inline 50px avatar for a user in a message, essentially allowing
you to create a user pill like:
`!avatar(alice@example.com) Alice: hey!`
---
Reimplementation
If we decide to reimplement this or a similar feature in the future,
we could use something like `<avatar:userid>` syntax which is more
in line with creating links in markdown. Even then, it would not be
a good idea to add this instead of supporting inline images directly.
Since any usecases of such a syntax are in automation, we do not need
to make it userfriendly and something like the following is a better
implementation that doesn't need a custom syntax:
` Alice: hey!`
---
History
We initially added this syntax back in 2012 and it was 'deprecated'
from the get go. Here's what the original commit had to say about
the new syntax:
> We'll use this internally for the commit bot. We might eventually
> disable it for external users.
We eventually did start using this for our github integrations in 2013
but since then, those integrations have been neglected in favor of
our GitHub webhooks which do not use this syntax.
When we copied `!gravatar` to add the `!avatar` syntax, we also noted
that we want to deprecate the `!gravatar` syntax entirely - in 2013!
Since then, we haven't advertised either of these syntaxes anywhere
in our docs, and the only two places where this syntax remains is
our game bots that could easily do without these, and the git commit
integration that we have deprecated anyway.
We do not have any evidence of someone asking about this syntax on
chat.zulip.org when developing an integration and rightfully so- only
the people who work on Zulip (and specifically, markdown) are likely
to stumble upon it and try it out.
This is also the only peice of code due to which we had to look up
emails -> userid mapping in our backend markdown. By removing this,
we entirely remove the backend markdown's dependency on user emails
to render messages.

This commits adds the steps for configuring message retention policy
for an organization and for individual streams in message retention
policy docs.
Fixes#15495.
There is still some miscellaneous cleanup that
has to happen for things like analytics queries
and dead code in node tests, but this should
remove the main use of pointers in the backend.
(We will also still need to drop the DB field.)
We send user_id of the referrer instead of email in the invites dict.
Sending user_ids is more robust, as those are an immutable reference
to a user, rather than something that can change with time.
Updates to the webapp UI to display the inviters for more convenient
inspection will come in a future commit.
Change variable `name` to `date_sent` as `name` actually stores
the date sent. Also change the data types of `name` and `create_time`
to integer. As they actually have empty decimal value.
* Reordered the settings relevant without stream creation to the top.
* Removed useless/misleading defaults for optional parameters.
* Clarified description of the announce and authorization_errors_fatal settings.
* Clarified that `invite_only` only applies for stream creation.
(It's annoying to do so for its friends because they are including
common description content and OpenAPI doesn't have a way to have
extra content in a place you included something)
Fixes#14705.
After some discussion, everyone seems to agree that 3.0 is the more
appropriate version number for our next major release. This updates
our documentation to reflect that we'll be using 3.0 as our next major
release.
Also, `send_message` example is altered to send a message to the
stream 'social' to avoid getting a "first_message_id: null"
in the response for `get_subscriptions` example, that caused
`validate_against_openapi_schema` to throw an error.
With this implementation of the feature of the automatic theme
detection, we make the following changes in the backend, frontend and
documentation.
This replaces the previous night_mode boolean with an enum, with the
default value being to use the prefers-color-scheme feature of the
operating system to determine which theme to use.
Fixes: #14451.

We can now invite new users as realm owners. We restrict only
owners to invite new users as owners both for single invite
and multiuse invite link. Also, only owners can revoke or resend
owner invitations.
Two things were broken here:
* we were using name(s) instead of id(s)
* we were always sending lists that only
had one element
Now we just send "stream_id" instead of "subscriptions".
If anything, we should start sending a list of users
instead of a list of streams. For example, see
the code below:
if peer_user_ids:
for new_user_id in new_user_ids:
event = dict(type="subscription", op="peer_add",
stream_id=stream.id,
user_id=new_user_id)
send_event(realm, event, peer_user_ids)
Note that this only affects the webapp, as mobile/ZT
don't use this.
Currently, the OpenAPI extension for rendering description in docs
cannot parse {!api-admin-only.md!}. Edit order of markdown extensions
in app_filters.py so that rendering of OpenAPI elements takes place
before substitution of files using `include`.
Mostly, this is a change in ordering to make more sense, but we also
fix several names that were clearly confusing.
We restore the convention that each endpoint has the same title at the
top of the page as what we have in the sidebar menu, which appears to
have been violated in many recent updates to API documentation.
api docs filenames are basically the operationId of their endpoint
in zulip.yaml with `_` replaced by `-`. But some operationIds have
changed, so change the affected filenames. Make changes in other
files accordingly.
This adds a new client_capability that clients such as the mobile apps
can use to avoid unreasonable network bandwidth consumed sending
avatar URLs in organizations with 10,000s of users.
Clients don't strictly need this data, as they can always use the
/avatar/{user_id} endpoint to fetch the avatar if desired.
This will be more efficient especially for realms with
10,000+ users because the avatar URLs would increase the
payload size significantly and cost us more bandwidth.
Fixes#15287.
This commit adds backend support for setting message_retention_days
while creating streams and updating it for an existing stream. We only
allow organization owners to set/update it for a stream.
'message_retention_days' field for a stream existed previously also, but
there was no way to set it while creating streams or update it for an
exisiting streams using any endpoint.
The term `parameter` is a better word than `argument` for data passed
to an API endpoint; this is why OpenAPI uses in their terminology.
Replace `argument` with `parameter` in the API docs to improve their
readability.
Fixes#15435.
We fixed the main issue of this form in CVE-2020-9444, but the audit
done at that time only included links found in rendered_markdown; this
change completes our audit for links with target=_blank anywhere in
the codebase.
This fixes a bundle of issues where we were missing "" around
attributes coming from variables. In most cases, the variables were
integers or fixed constants from the Zulip codebase (E.g. the name of
an installed integration), but in at least one case it was
user-provided data that could potentially have security impact.
Google has removed the Google Hangouts brand, thus we are removing
them as video chat provider option.
This commit removes Google Hangouts integration and make a migration
that sets all realms that are using Hangouts as their video chat
provider to the default, jitsi.
With changes by tabbott to improve the overall video call documentation.
Fixes: #15298.
This adds support for a "spoiler" syntax in Zulip's markdown, which
can be used to hide content that one doesn't want to be immediately
visible without a click.
We use our own spoiler block syntax inspired by Zulip's existing quote
and math block markdown extensions, rather than requiring a token on
every line, as is present in some other markdown spoiler
implementations.
Fixes#5802.

This commit removes is_old_stream property from the stream objects
returned by the API. This property was unnecessary and is essentially
equivalent to 'stream_weekly_traffic != null'.
We compute sub.is_old_stream in stream_data.update_calculated_fields
in frontend code and it is used to check whether we have a non-null
stream_weekly_traffic or not.
Fixes#15181.
This is designed to have no user-facing change unless the client
declares bulk_message_deletion in its client_capabilities.
Clients that do so will receive a single bulk event for bulk deletions
of messages within a single conversation (topic or PM thread).
Backend implementation of #15285.
This commits adds restriction on admins to set message retention policy.
We now only allow only organization owners to set message retention
policy.
Dropdown for changing retention policy is disabled in UI for admins also.
The chevron sometime can be confused as an icon for expanding the
stream topics especially for the new users.
This commit replaces the confusing chevron icon from the stream-sidebar,
topic-list, user-presence-row, all-messages and starred-messages with
ellipsis-v icon(vertical three dots).
Fixes: #7115
This new endpoint returns a 'user' dictionary which, as of now,
contains a single key 'is_subscribed' with a boolean value that
represents whether the user with the given 'user_id' is subscribed
to the stream with the given 'stream_id'.
Fixes#14966.
The only clients that should use the typing
indicators endpoint are our internal clients,
and they should send a JSON-formatted list
of user_ids.
We now enforce this, which removes some
complexity surrounding legacy ways of sending
users, such as emails and comma-delimited
strings of user_ids.
There may be a very tiny number of mobile
clients that still use the old emails API.
This won't have any user-facing effect on
the mobile users themselves, but if you type
a message to your friend on an old mobile
app, the friend will no longer see typing
indicators.
Also, the mobile team may see some errors
in their Sentry logs from the server rejecting
posts from the old mobile clients.
The error messages we report here are a bit
more generic, since we now just use REQ
to do validation with this code:
validator=check_list(check_int)
This also allows us to remove a test hack
related to the API documentation. (We changed
the docs to reflect the modern API in an
earlier commit, but the tests couldn't be
fixed while we still had the more complex
semantics for the "to" parameter.)
* Show an empty overlay of recent topics.
* Register click event to open recent topics.
* Launch recent topics on "t" keypress.
This is based on the draft overlay.
For narrows where the `.all-messages-search-caution` or
`.history-limited-box` are visible the indicator is not
aligned with `top-messages-logo`.
Now the indicator is rendered in it's appropriate position
instead of overlapping with the text.
This implementation overrides some of PSA's internal backend
functions to handle `state` value with redis as the standard
way doesn't work because of apple sending required details
in the form of POST request.
Includes a mixin test class that'll be useful for testing
Native auth flow.
Thanks to Mateusz Mandera for the idea of using redis and
other important work on this.

This was previously hardcoded with agreement between the Zulip backend
and frontend as 86400 seconds (1 day). Now, it's still hardcoded in
the backend, but arranged in a way where we could add a setting
without any changes to the mobile and terminal apps to update logic.
Fixes#15278.
I don't believe it's actually been possible for this to be shown in
Zulip in several years; and we just made it more obviously so
(resulting in a linter error).
This was written by Rishi for a very brief purpose a few years ago,
and it doesn't serve much purpose now other than to be a place we
update in code sweeps.
We're migrating to using the cleaner zulip.com domain, which involves
changing all of our links from ReadTheDocs and other places to point
to the cleaner URL.
Since owners have the highest privilege level, it made little sense to
sandwich them between administrators and guests.

This commit removes short_name and client_id fields from the user
objects returned by get_profile_backend because neither of them
had a purpose.
* short_name hasn't been present anywhere else in the Zulip API for
several years, and isn't set through any coherent algorithm.
* client_id was a forgotten 2013-era predecessor to the queue_id field
returned by the register_event_queue process.
The combination of these changes gets us close to having `get_profile`
have the exact same format as other endpoints fetching a user object.
This commit changes get_profile_backend to be based on format_user_row
such that it's a superset of the fields for our other endpoints for
getting data on a user.
To be clear, this does not removes any of the exisiting fields, that
were returned by this endpoint.
This change adds some fields to the User object returned by the
endpoint. API docs are updated accordingly for the added fields.
Slack owners and primary owners will be mapped to zulip
realm owners on import.
Previously, we mapped the owner and primary owner roles of slack
to realm admins in zulip. As we have added ROLE_REALM_OWNER in
8bbc074, we now map slack owners and primary owners to owners in
zulip.
Tests are modified for checking all the 3 cases-
- Slack workspace primary owner
- Slack workspace owner
- Slack workspace admin
This commit also has docs changes in 'import-from-slack.md'.
Option to disable breadcrumb messages were given in both message edit
form and topic edit stream popover.
User now has the option to select which stream to send the notification
of stream edit of a topic via checkboxes in the UI.
OneLogin has removed the app that these instructions used to rely on.
This app choice should be more stable, as there are other providers
that rely on it in their instructions for setting them up with OneLogin.
Ideally, in the future, we'll get our own app added to OneLogin's app
catalogue, which will simplify the setup process for administrators.
This reimplements our Zoom video call integration to use an OAuth
application. In addition to providing a cleaner setup experience,
especially on zulipchat.com where the server administrators can have
done the app registration already, it also fixes the limitation of the
previous integration that it could only have one call active at a time
when set up with typical Zoom API keys.

This commit modifies the backend to accept user ids when subscribing
users to streams.
It also migrates all existing tests to use this API, aside from a
small set of tests for the legacy API.
There's no reason to send data beyond the user `id` of the uploader,
and reason not to, as the previous model was both awkward when
`author=None` and resulted in unecessary parsing complexity for
clients.
Modified by tabbott to add the frontend changes and API documentation.
Fixes#15115.
This commit changes the person dict in event sent by do_change_user_role
to send role instead of is_admin or is_guest.
This makes things much more straightforward for our upcoming primary
owners feature.
Currently response return values have to be written twice, once in
the docs and once in zulip.yaml. Create a markdown extension so
that the return values in api docs are rendered using content from
zulip.yaml
This commit changes the update user API endpoint to accept role
as parameter instead of the bool parameters is_guest and is_admin.
User role dropdown in user info modal is also modified to use
"dropdown_options_widget".
Modified by tabbott to document the API change.
We remove the "GROUP PMs" section that used
to be in the lower right sidebar.
Most of this is straightforward code removal.
A couple quick notes:
- The message fetching code now just
calls `huddle_data.process_loaded_messages`,
which we still need for search suggestions.
We removed `activity.process_loaded_messages`.
- The `huddle_data.process_loaded_messages`
function no longer needs to return `need_resize`.
- In `resize.js` we now just calculate
`res.buddy_list_wrapper_max_height` directly
from `usable_height`.
If a user receives more than one invite to join a
realm, after that user registers, all the remaining
invitations should be revoked, preventing them to be
listed in active invitations on admin panel.
To do this, we added a new prereg_user status,
STATUS_REVOKED.
We also added a confirmation_link_expired_error page
in case the user tries click on a revoked invitaion.
This page has a link to login page.

The previous styling was brittle and ended up breaking in very small
phone-size views with the text overflowing the boundaries of the page.
The right fix is to move those heading outside the portico-header
class, since the CSS for that isn't generally appropriate here.
The /apps page webapp link now takes the user to /accounts/go to find
their organization's login page, rather than failing to do anything.
Fixes#14977.
This fixes some issues with unclear terminology and visual styling in
the pages for the new free trial.
There's probably more we can and should usefully do in the future.
We already have a loading indicator for fetching older
messages. Thus it makes sense to implement the same
for displaying newer messages.
We set the display of `bottom-messages-logo` to none,
to prevent displaying two loading indicators during
the initial message load.
Fixes#15060.
`loading_more_messages_indicator` is renamed to
`loading_older_messages_indicator`.
This is a prep commit to introduce
`loading_newer_messages_indicator`.
This commit replaces fa-file-text-o with fa-file-code-o which is a
better signal for the "view source" action. It also deletes a single
line comment that had suggested the change once we moved into font
awesome 4, which Aditya Bansal <adi.bansal241996@gmail.com> helped
out in doing, first via
91962aa6ab and most recently via
75ae94e459 with several commits in
between.
The `email` field for identifying the user being modified in these
events was not used by either the webapp or other official Zulip
clients. Instead, it was legacy data from before we switched years
ago to sending user_id fields as the correct way to uniquely identify
a user.
When a user changes its avatar image, the user's avatar in popovers
wasn't being correctly updated, because of browser caching of the
avatar image. We added a version on the request to get the image in
the same format we use elsewhere, so the browser knows when to use the
cached image or to make a new request to the server.
Edited by Tim to preserve/fix sort orders in some tests, and update
zulip_feature_level.
Fixes: #14290
* This feature is currently only visible to admins.
* Locally echoed messages are also updated.
* Add UI for editing stream if user is admin.
* Show propagate mode selector if either stream or topic changed.
For the below payloads we want `owner_id` instead
of `owner`, which we should deprecate. (The
`owner` field is actually an email, which is
not a stable key.)
page_params.realm_bots
realm_bot/add
realm_bot/update
IMPORTANT NOTE: Some of the data served in
these payloads is cached with the key
`bot_dicts_in_realm_cache_key`.
For page_params, we get the new field
via `get_owned_bot_dicts`.
For realm_bot/add, we modified
`created_bot_event`.
For realm_bot/update, we modified
`do_change_bot_owner`.
On the JS side, we no longer
look up the bot's owner directly in
`server_events_dispatch` when we get
a realm_bot/update event. Instead, we
delegate that job to `bot_data.js`.
I modified the tests accordingly.
Popular email clients like Gmail will automatically linkify link-like
content present in an HTML email they receive, even if it doesn't have
links in it. This made it possible to include what in Gmail will be a
user-controlled link in invitation emails that Zulip sends, which a
spammer/phisher could try to take advantage of to send really bad spam
(the limitation of having the rest of the invitation email HTML there
makes it hard to do something compelling here).
We close this opportunity by structuring our emails to always show the
user's name inside an existing link, so that Gmail won't do new
linkification, and add a test to help ensure we don't remove this
structure in a future design change.

This completes the implementation of support for moving a topic to
another stream by adding a basic UI for it.
Fixes#6427, which was previously the most-upvoted issue request in
Zulip.
There are likely to be a bunch of follow-up UI improvements on top of
this change to fully flesh out the feature.
This page isn't polished properly and I'm not sure it's the best
decision tree here, but it's definitely better to have this page than
not, and we can always adjust forward.
Fixes#10033.
We've completed the production performance testing that had been
blocking us from advertising this feature, so we're declaring the
feature implemented by documenting it.
As of this commit, you need to edit fields using `manage.py shell` to
configure it and manually configure the cron job, but those should be
addressed in the next few days.
Fixes#106.
For privacy-minded folks who don't want to leak the
information of whether they're online, this adds an
option to disable sending presence updates to other
users.
The new settings lies in the "Other notification

page, under a "Presence" subheading.
Closes#14798.
This commit extends the template for "choose email" to mention for
users who have unverified emails that they need to verify them before
using them for Zulip authentication.
Also modified `social_auth_test_finish` to assert if all emails
are present in "choose email" screen as we need unverified emails
to be shown to user and verified emails to login/signup.
Fixes#12638 as this was the last task for that issue.
Member of the org can able see list of invitations sent by him/her.

This does not rely on the desktop app being able to register for the
zulip:// scheme (which is problematic with, for example, the AppImage
format).
It also is a better interface for managing changes to the system,
since the implementation exists almost entirely in the server/webapp
project.
This provides a smoother user experience, where the user doesn't need
to do the paste step, when combined with

This removes the weird edit-bot sidebar, replacing it with a modal,
matching our edit-user widget (and various similar ones).
Fixes#13644 by removing the buggy code.
I imagine this can be improved in various ways, but I've initialized
this with all the **Changes** entries recorded in either zulip.yaml or
the rest of the API documentation, and I expect we'll be able to
iterate on this effectively.
It'll also be useful as a record of changes that we should remember to
document the API documentation as we document more endpoints that
currently don't discuss these issues.
While working on this, I fixed various issues where feature levels
could be mentioned or endpoints didn't properly document changes.
We now prevent these variations:
* <hr/>
* <hr />
* <br/>
* <br />
We could enforce similar consistency for other void
tags, if we wished, but these two are particularly
prevalent.
Firstly, change endpoint descriptions in zulip.yaml so that they
match their counterpart in the api docs. Then edit the api docs
so that they use api description markdown extension for displaying
endpoint description.
Add function in openapi.py to access endpoint descriptions written
in zulip.yaml. Use this function for creating a markdown extension
for rendering endpoint descriptions written in zulip.yaml.
We use this extension for a single endpoint to get test coverage.
Previously, the message and event APIs represented the user differently
for the same reaction data. To make this more consistent, I added a
user_id field to the reaction dict for both messages and events. I
updated the front end to use the user_id field rather than the user
dict. Lastly, I updated front end and back end tests that used user
info.
I primarily tested this by running my local Zulip build and
adding/removing reactions from messages.
Fixes#12049.
Internet Explorer does not support `position: sticky` which improves
floating recipient bar behavior during scrolling which is one of the
issues blocking PR #9910.
IE also does not support some features that modern browsers support
hence may not super well.
This commit adds an error page that'll be displayed when a user logs
in from Internet Explorer. Also, a test is added.
Previously, the send_custom_email code path leaked files in paths that
were not `.gitignored`, under templates/zerver/emails.
This became problematic when we added automated tests for this code
path, as it meant we leaked these files every time `test-backend` ran.
Fix this by ensuring all the files we generate are in this special
subdirectory.
The purpose is to provide a way for (non-webapp) clients,
like the mobile and terminal apps, to tell whether the
server it's talking to is new enough to support a given
API feature -- in particular a way that
* is finer-grained than release numbers, so that for
features developed after e.g. 2.1.0 we can use them
immediately on servers deployed from master (like
chat.zulip.org and zulipchat.com) without waiting the
months until a 2.2 release;
* is reliable, unlike e.g. looking at the number of
commits since a release;
* doesn't lead to a growing bag of named feature flags
which the server has to go on sending forever.
Tweaked by tabbott to extend the documentation.
