webhook-errors.log file is cluttered with Stream.DoesNotExist
errors, which hides the errors that we actually need to see. So,
since check_message already sends the bot_owner a PM if the webhook
bot tries to send a message to a non-existent stream, we can ignore
such exceptions.
We filter out hidden comments out of Issue descriptions but this
breaks when description is null (which is unusual). So this commit
just checks to see if the description is None and if so, not to
filter anything out.
For a personal build, the teamcity webhook still sends a private
message using check_send_private_message since a personal build
should never trigger a public notification.
For a non-personal build, check_send_webhook_message is used,
which can either send a PM or a stream message based on whether
a stream is specified in the webhook URL or not.
We now only give users two options, to specify a stream and receive
public notifications for their goals, or to leave it out and receive
PMs and thus, keep their goals private. This simplifies the docs!
This fixes a regression in 93678e89cd
and a4979410f9, where the webhooks using
authenticated_rest_api_view were migrated to a new model that didn't
include setting a custom Client string for the webhook.
When restoring these webhooks' client strings, we also fix places
where the client string was not capitalized the same was as the
product's name.
This commit migrates all of our webhooks to use
check_send_webhook_message, except the following:
beeminder: Rishi wanted to wait on this one.
teamcity: This one is slightly more work.
yo: This one is PM-only. I am still trying to decide whether we
should have a force_private argument or something in
check_send_webhook_message.
facebook: No point in migrating this, will be removed as part of
#8433.
slack: Slightly more work too with the `channel_to_topics` feature.
Warrants a longer discussion.
These are the straightforward ones.
Note that there is a line in zerver.lib.test_classes.build_webhook_url
that lost test coverage. That's because most of our tests test using
stream messages so the webhook URLs being tested always have a query
parameter. So the line that accounts for there being no query
parameters never gets called, which is fine, but we should still
keep it.
This commit adds a generic function called check_send_webhook_message
that does the following:
* If a stream is specified in the webhook URL, it sends a stream
message, otherwise sends a PM to the owner of the bot.
* In the case of a stream message, if a custom topic is specified
in the webhook URL, it uses that topic as the subject of the
stream message.
Also, note that we need not test this anywhere except for the
helloworld webhook. Since helloworld is our default example for
webhooks, it is here to stay and it made sense that tests for a
generic function such as check_send_webhook_message be tested
with an actual generic webhook!
Fixes#8607.
Originally was going to centralize this in zerver/lib/request.pyi, but this
file is not visible at run-time, being only a stub. The matching request.py
file seemed inappropriate, as it doesn't actually use ViewFuncT.
Note that the "Save" button has no text in the Taiga webhook
setup UI. There is a small floppy disk symbol for saving which
is visible right beside the form fields. So I simply said,
"Save the form".
Rewritten in significant part by tabbott to actually be correct.
One particularly nasty thing the original webhook integration did is
do `current_time = time.time()` at the top of the `view.py` function
-- that means that code ran at import time, not runtime.
There's probably follow-up work to do here to eliminate these
completely, but this dramatically shrinks the ~1 minute race window
that was previously present between import and test function being
called.
This commit:
* Restructures the doc to use a numbered-step format.
Note that there are no screenshots. I signed up for a
Fabric/Crashlyics account but you have to link an Android/iOS app
to even get to the settings panel, which seemed like too much work
just to get a screenshot.
However, the way we can verify (somewhat) the correctness of the
last step is that it is a paraphrase of the first paragraph of
Fabric's Webhook docs, which can be found here:
https://docs.fabric.io/apple/crashlytics/custom-web-hooks.html
This commit modifies the text to:
1. Removes unnecessary screenshots.
2. Use the numbered-style format.
3. I also removed the instructions for generating an access token.
I took a look at Dropbox's docs and you shouldn't need that
for a webhook setup. The whole point behind a webhook is that
one can get by without using OAuth.
4. Rearranges the instructions to only contain 4 steps. For
uncomplicated instructions, that seems to be the ideal number.
