We should omit these for mypy. For most class definitions,
mypy doesn't need `Any`, and it provides no real useful info.
For clever monkeypatches, you should provide a more specific
type than `Any`.
The `re.match` function in the Python stdlib is a trap for the unwary,
with surprising and asymmetrical semantics; we should probably add a
lint rule to ban it entirely. The docstring says:
> Try to apply the pattern at the start of the string, [...]
In other words, it effectively adds a `^` at the start (or `\A`, where
the distinction matters.) It's bad enough that this differs from what
grep, sed, perl, less, and every other tool I can think of do when
looking for matches to a regex; on top of that, it treats the
beginning of the string differently from the end, for no obvious
reason. The function that does what the rest of the world understands
by "match against this regex" is `re.search`.
In this case, it's unlikely that anyone intended for comments with
URLs, or `api_url` references, to miss out on their respective
exceptions to the long-line rule if they happen to start after the
first column. So fix those rules by just switching to `re.search`
with the same pattern.
I think Markdown URL references may have to start at the beginning of
the line, so I've left a `^` there to preserve -- but now make
explicit -- the `re.match` behavior.
Tweaked by tabbott to move changes from the next commit that are
required for this to pass tests into this commit.
Note that this exports a few items that were not previously exported.
This is part of our efforts to change our integrations/webhooks
docs to follow the same sort of numbered-list format as our /help
docs. In order to indicate that paragraphs separated by newlines
are part of the same numbered-list point, every paragraph must be
indented 4 spaces.
This both improves the comment to be more readable, and also uses the
new and improved exclude feature to limit the exclusion to just the
webhook fixtures (where it's needed).
Also fixes a mypy error.
The previous exclude rules only allowed excluding a directory (and
things in subdirectories would silently still be linted). Anyone
using this would expect it to exclude a directory tree, so we make it
do that.
The readthedocs theme overrides a few settings in their layout template.
We might want to change some settings back to their default values.
This commit copies the original readthedocs layout file from
https://github.com/rtfd/sphinx_rtd_theme/blob/master/sphinx_rtd_theme/layout.html
to _templates/layout.html, and excludes it from lint and template checks.
Addresses #7417.
This often can cause minor caching problems.
Obviously, it'd be better if we had access to the AST and thus could
do this rule for UserProfile objects in general.
This commit helps reduce clutter on the navigation sidebar.
Creates new directories and moves relevant files into them.
Modifies index.rst, symlinks, and image paths accordingly.
This commit also enables expandable/collapsible navigation items,
renames files in docs/development and docs/production,
modifies /tools/test-documentation so that it overrides a theme setting,
Also updates links to other docs, file paths in the codebase that point
to developer documents, and files that should be excluded from lint tests.
Note that this commit does not update direct links to
zulip.readthedocs.io in the codebase; those will be resolved in an
upcoming follow-up commit (it'll be easier to verify all the links
once this is merged and ReadTheDocs is updated).
Fixes#5265.
This commit allows for the /api-new/ page to rendered similarly to our
/help pages. It's based on the old content for /api, but we're not
replacing the old content yet, to give a bit of time to restructure
things reasonably.
Tweaked by eeshangarg and tabbott.
The "subdomain" label is redundant, to the extent it's even
accurate -- this is really just the URL we want to display,
which may or may not involve a subdomain. Similarly "external".
The former `external_api_path_subdomain` was never a path -- it's a
host, followed by a path, which together form a scheme-relative URL.
I'm not quite convinced that value is actually the right thing in
2 of the 3 places we use it, but fixing that can start by giving an
accurate name to the thing we have.
I'd much rather see something like
if (thing_is_permissible(user, thing)
or (user_possesses_hammer(user)
and glass_break_requested(thing))):
than
if (thing_is_permissible(user, thing) or
(user_possesses_hammer(user) and
glass_break_requested(thing))):
because the former makes the overall logic much easier to scan.
Similarly for a formula full of arithmetic rather than Boolean
operators. And the actual PEP 8 agrees (though until 2016 it
unfortunately had the opposite advice.)
The upstream linter still applies the backward rule, so disable that.
Except in:
- docs/writing-bots-guide.md, because bots are supposed to be Python 2
compatible
- puppet/zulip_ops/files/zulip-ec2-configure-interfaces, because this
script is still on python2.7
- tools/lint
- tools/linter_lib
- tools/lister.py
For the latter two, because they might be yanked away to a separate repo
for general use with other FLOSS projects.
This lint rule has bitten me a couple of times in working on logging.
These regex rules will inevitably be heuristic, but we can make it a bit more
specific so that the heuristic mainly means it could occasionally miss
something, rather than get in the way with an obviously wrong complaint.
