The actual bug in #11791 was caused by code reverted in
3ed85f4cd7, so technically #11791 is
already fixed. However, it makes sense to add tests to ensure that it
doesn't regress in the future as part of closing out the issue.
Fixes#11791.
Some urls which end with image file extensions (eg .jpg) may link to
html pages. This adds handling for linx.li, wikipedia.org and
pasteboard.co. If it is possible, we redirect to the actual image url
otherwise we do not attempt to render it as an image.
Fixes#10438.
This reverts commit ff90c0101c but keeps
the test cases added for reference.
This was reverted because it was both not a clean solution and created
other realm filters bugs involving dashes (etc.).
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 allows us to have some features using bugdown rendering where
inline image previews will not be rendered (which would be problematic
for e.g. stream descriptions).
This change should help people discover to distinguish
silent mentions in text as a part of Zulip syntax while
differentiating them from regular mentions.
Earlier, our realm filters didn't render for languages that do not
use spaces (eg: Japanese) since we used to check for the presence
of an actual space character. This commit replaces that logic with
a complex scheme to detect word boundaries.
Also, we convert the RealmFilterPattern to subclass InlineProcessor
and make use of the new no-op feature in py-markdown 3.0.1 where we
can tell py-markdown that our pattern didn't find a match despite
the initial regex getting matched.
Fixes#9883.
On the backend, we extend the BlockQuoteProcessor's clean function that
just removes '>' from the start of each line to convert each mention to
have the silent mention syntax, before UserMentionPattern is invoked.
The frontend, however, has an edge case where if you are mentioned in
some message and you quote it while having mentioned yourself above
the quoted message, you wouldn't see the red highlight till we get the
final rendered message from the backend.
This is such a subtle glitch that it's likely not worth worrying about.
Fixes#8025.
These mentions look like regular mentions except they do not
trigger any notification for the person mentioned. These are
primarily to be used when you make a bot take an action and
the bot mentions you, or when you quote a message that mentions
you.
Fixes#11221.
This setting splits away part of responsibility from THUMBOR_URL.
Now on, this setting will be responsible for controlling whether
we thumbnail images or not by asking bugdown to render image links
to hit our /thumbnail endpoint. This is irrespective of what
THUMBOR_URL is set to though ideally THUMBOR_URL should be set
to point to a running thumbor instance.
This commit changes the return type of get_possible_mentions_info to a
list instead of a dict, thus disposing off the hacky logic of storing
users with duplicate full names with name|id keys that made the code
obfuscated.
The other functions continue to use the dicts as before, however, there
are minor variable changes where needed in accordance with the updated
definition of get_possible_mentions_info.
We now attach zulip_db_data to the markdown engines
for classes that need it. This was the last remaining
global we had, so we remove `arguments.py` here.
The Markdown processor makes it fairly simple for
the helper classes to access the `md` engine. We
now write `_md_engine.zulip_message` to avoid having
the current message in the global namespace.
Note that we do reuse engines for multiple messages,
but each engine is specific to a realm. And we therefore
avoid even the theoretical possibility of leaking message
data between realms.
We were building the same link regex every time
we build a Markdown engine, which happens twice
per realm. It's an expensive operation due to
the complexity of the regex and us reading a file.
This is a preparatory commit which will help us with removing camo.
In the upcoming commits we introduce a new endpoint which is based
out on the setting CAMO_URI. Since camo could have been hosted on
a different server as well from the main Zulip server, this change
will help us realise in tests how that scenerio might be dealt with.
We are basically adding a check for url's to be external (belonging
to some 3rd party web site hosting the image) or be one of the
user uploaded files. User uploaded files are served by a separate
endpoint which is /user_uploads/. Any other local url such as
/user_avatars/ or /static/ should never be sent to thumbor for
thumbnailing.
Not sending /user_avatars/ to thumbor for thumbnailing makes sense
because they are already properly thumbnailed and stored properly.
/static/ urls host very few images we use for demo and can be safely
be excluded from thumbnailing.
We start by stripping the ids in front of the name before the database
lookup. This has the advantage of not mentioning anyone if an incorrect
user id and full name combination is specified, as well as not having
the query the database twice, once by fullname and next by id.
Previously, we were storing only the most recent person with the same
full name as others; this commit adds new keys to the dict such that
simply looking by name would get you the newest user with this name,
and the get_user_by_id function can index the remaining users.
Various pieces of our thumbor-based thumbnailing system were already
merged; this adds the remaining pieces required for it to work:
* a THUMBOR_URL Django setting that controls whether thumbor is
enabled on the Zulip server (and if so, where thumbor is hosted).
* Replaces the overly complicated prototype cryptography logic
* Adds a /thumbnail endpoint (supported both on web and mobile) for
accessing thumbnails in messages, designed to support hosting both
external URLs as well as uploaded files (and applying Zulip's
security model for access to thumbnails of uploaded files).
* Modifies bugdown to, when THUMBOR_URL is set, render images with the
`src` attribute pointing /thumbnail (to provide a small thumbnail
for the image), along with adding a "data-original" attribute that
can be used to access the "original/full" size version of the image.
There are a few things that don't work quite yet:
* The S3 backend support is incomplete and doesn't work yet.
* The error pages for unauthorized access are ugly.
* We might want to rename data-original and /thumbnail?size=original
to use some other name, like "full", that better reflects the fact
that we're potentially not serving the original image URL.
This migrates Zulip to use a dramatically better set of names and
aliases for our emoji set, defined in emoji_names.py (which is in turn
manually generated from our hand-curated CSV file).
This should significantly improve the experience of using Zulip's
emoji picker and emoji typeahead for finding what one is looking for.
This has two advantages;
* We can split bugdown/__init__.py into several modules, and each
module can access these arguments by importing these
* We get rid of the super-ugly `global db_data` construct, replacing
it with a only slightly ugly monkey-ish patching of the
`zerver.lib.bugdown.arguments` module, which is at least
considerably more clear on reading as to what it's purpose is.
This commit increases the rendered_content limit from 2x to 10x of the
original message length.
Earlier, we had placed a limit of MAX_MESSAGE_LENGTH * 2 for the
rendered content (explained in commit
77addc5456). That limit was based on
the assumption that in most cases, the rendered content wouldn't cause
a large increase in message length. However, quite prominently in
syntax highlighted codeblocks, that wasn't true and this caused the
limit condition to be hit for long messages composed primarily of code
blocks.
Example: The following message would render close to 10x it's original size.
```py
if:
def:
print("x", var)
x = y
```
Because the syntax highlighted logic is extremely compressible, having
rendered_content reach up to 100KB doesn't create a network
performance problem.
Usually, to debug a small change, you have to remove some tests from JSON
because of lack of support for comments in JSON. This commit allows to
ignore some tests by setting `"ignore" : true` in the bugdown fixtures.
Also, since this is only for while developing, the complete test suite will
throw an error if we leave an 'ignored' test in a commit.
Also switches the default behaviour of the code to not translate the
emoticons. Earlier, the code was testing-aware, and used to translate
when there was no user profile data available(assuming that as a testing
environment).
In 18e43895ff we replaced
stream subscribe buttons with stream links. The new feature
has been well tested and well received for over a year now,
so it's safe to remove the older feature at this point.
Older sites will have super old messages that still have the
rendered markup; this commit does not attempt to address those
situations. Most likely, clicking on an old button in the old
message will either do nothing or look like a message reply.
