The name `create_logger` suggests something much bigger than what this
function actually does -- the logger doesn't any more or less exist
after the function is called than before. Its one real function is to
send logs to a specific file.
So, pull out that logic to an appropriately-named function just for
it. We already use `logging.getLogger` in a number of places to
simply get a logger by name, and the old `create_logger` callsites can
do the same.
Because calls to `create_logger` generally run after settings are
configured, these would override what we have in `settings.LOGGING` --
which in particular defeated any attempt to set log levels in
`test_settings.py`. Move all of these settings to the same place in
`settings.py`, so they can be overridden in a uniform way.
In python3 base64.b64decode() can take an ASCII string, and any
legit data will be ASCII. If you pass in non-ASCII data, the
function will properly throw a ValueError (verified in python3 shell).
>>> s = '안녕하세요'
>>> import base64
>>> base64.b64decode(s)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/srv/zulip-py3-venv/lib/python3.4/base64.py", line 37, in _bytes_from_decode_data
return s.encode('ascii')
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode characters in position 0-4: ordinal not in range(128)

This gets used when we call `process_client`, which we generally do at
some kind of login; and in particular, we do in the shared auth
codepath `login_or_register_remote_user`. Add a decorator to make it
easy, and use it on the various views that wind up there.
In particular, this ensures that the `query` is some reasonable
constant corresponding to the view, as intended. When not set, we
fall back in `update_user_activity` on the URL path, but in particular
for `log_into_subdomain` that can now contain a bunch of
request-specific data, which makes it (a) not aggregate properly, and
(b) not even fit in the `CHARACTER VARYING(50)` database field we've
allotted it.
The only place this attribute is used is in `update_user_activity`,
called only in `process_client`, which won't happen if we end up
returning a redirect just below. If we don't, we go and call
`add_logging_data` just after, which takes care of this already.
This won't work for all call paths without deeper refactoring,
but for at least some paths we can make this more direct -- function
arguments, rather than mutating a request attribute -- so it's easier
to see how the data is flowing.
FuncT was unused in decorator.py, and only imported into profile.py.
The @profiled decorator is now more strongly typed on return-type.
Annotations were converted to python3 format.
Now that every call site of check_subdomain produces its second
argument in exactly the same way, push that shared bit of logic
into a new wrapper for check_subdomain.
Also give that new function a name that says more specifically what
it's checking -- which I think is easier to articulate for this
interface than for that of check_subdomain.
The refactor in b46af40bd3 didn't
correctly translate the code for managing request.user and
request._email, resulting in requests for the push notification
bouncer being rejected with this exception:
AttributeError: 'AnonymousUser' object has no attribute 'rate_limits'
Previously, Zulip's server logs would not show which user or client
was involved in login or user registration actions, which made
debugging more annoying than it needed to be.
This fixes the significant duplication of code between the
authenticate_log_and_execute_json code path and the `validate_api_key`
code path.
These's till a bit of duplication, in the form of `process_client` and
`request._email` interactions, but it is very minor at this point.
The old iOS app has been gone from the app store for 8 months, never
had a huge userbase, and its latest version didn't need this hack. So
this code is unlikely to do anything in the future; remove it to
declutter our authentication decorators codebase.
The check itself was correct, but the error message was in fact the
opposite of what this check is for. In other words, the only things
these users can do is post messages, and the error message when you
tried to do something else was to tell you that the user can't post
messages.
This technically changes the behavior in the case that
!settings.ZILENCER_ENABLED but is_remote_zulip_server(role).
Fortunately, that case is mostly irrelevant (in that remote zulip
servers is a Zilencer feature). The old behavior was also probably
slightly wrong, in that you'd get a zilencer-specific error message in
that case.
