This commit adds "user_settings_object" field to
client_capabilities which will be used to determine
if the client needs 'update_display_settings' and
'update_global_notifications' event.
Return zulip_merge_base alongside zulip_version
in `/register`, `/event` and `/server_settings`
endpoint so that the value can be used by other
clients.
Previously, we checked for the `enable_offline_email_notifications` and
`enable_offline_push_notifications` settings (which determine whether the
user will receive notifications for PMs and mentions) just before sending
notifications. This has a few problem:
1. We do not have access to all the user settings in the notification
handlers (`handle_missedmessage_emails` and `handle_push_notifications`),
and therefore, we cannot correctly determine whether the notification should
be sent. Checks like the following which existed previously, will, for
example, incorrectly not send notifications even when stream email
notifications are enabled-
```
if not receives_offline_email_notifications(user_profile):
return
```
With this commit, we simply do not enqueue notifications if the "offline"
settings are disabled, which fixes that bug.
Additionally, this also fixes a bug with the "online push notifications"
feature, which was, if someone were to:
* turn off notifications for PMs and mentions (`enable_offline_push_notifications`)
* turn on stream push notifications (`enable_stream_push_notifications`)
* turn on "online push" (`enable_online_push_notifications`)
then, they would still receive notifications for PMs when online.
This isn't how the "online push enabled" feature is supposed to work;
it should only act as a wrapper around the other notification settings.
The buggy code was this in `handle_push_notifications`:
```
if not (
receives_offline_push_notifications(user_profile)
or receives_online_push_notifications(user_profile)
):
return
// send notifications
```
This commit removes that code, and extends our `notification_data.py` logic
to cover this case, along with tests.
2. The name for these settings is slightly misleading. They essentially
talk about "what to send notifications for" (PMs and mentions), and not
"when to send notifications" (offline). This commit improves this condition
by restricting the use of this term only to the database field, and using
clearer names everywhere else. This distinction will be important to have
non-confusing code when we implement multiple options for notifications
in the future as dropdown (never/when offline/when offline or online, etc).
3. We should ideally re-check all notification settings just before the
notifications are sent. This is especially important for email notifications,
which may be sent after a long time after the message was sent. We will
in the future add code to thoroughly re-check settings before sending
notifications in a clean manner, but temporarily not re-checking isn't
a terrible scenario either.
This is necessary to break the uncollectable reference cycle created
by our ‘request_notes.saved_response = json_response(…)’, Django’s
‘response._resource_closers.append(request.close)’, and Python’s

This concludes the HttpRequest migration to eliminate arbitrary
attributes (except private ones that are belong to django) attached
to the request object during runtime and migrated them to a
separate data structure dedicated for the purpose of adding
information (so called notes) to a HttpRequest.
This includes the migration of fields that require trivial changes
to be migrated to be stored with ZulipRequestNotes.
Specifically _requestor_for_logs, _set_language, _query, error_format,
placeholder_open_graph_description, saveed_response, which were all
previously set on the HttpRequest object at some point. This migration
allows them to be typed.
We will no longer use the HttpRequest to store the rate limit data.
Using ZulipRequestNotes, we can access rate_limit and ratelimits_applied
with type hints support. We also save the process of initializing
ratelimits_applied by giving it a default value.
We create a class called ZulipRequestNotes as a new home to all the
additional attributes that we add to the Django HttpRequest object.
This allows mypy to do the typecheck and also enforces type safety.
Most of the attributes are added in the middleware, and thus it is
generally safe to assert that they are not None in a code path that
goes through the middleware. The caller is obligated to do manual
the type check otherwise.
This also resolves some cyclic dependencies that zerver.lib.request
have with zerver.lib.rate_limiter and zerver.tornado.handlers.
* `stream_name`: This field is actually redundant. The email/push
notifications handlers don't use that field from the dict, and they
anyways query for the message, so we're safe in deleting this field,
even if in the future we end up needing the stream name.
* `timestamp`: This is totally unused by the email/push notification
handlers, and aren't sent to push clients either.
* `type` is used only for the push notifications handler, since only
push notifications can be revoked, so we move them to only run there.
We will later use this data to include text like:
`<sender> mentioned @<user_group>` instead of the current
`<sender> mentioned you` when someone mentions a user group
the current user is a part of in email/push notification.
Part of #13080.
JsonableError has two major benefits over json_error:
* It can be raised from anywhere in the codebase, rather than
being a return value, which is much more convenient for refactoring,
as one doesn't potentially need to change error handling style when
extracting a bit of view code to a function.
* It is guaranteed to contain the `code` property, which is helpful
for API consistency.
Various stragglers are not updated because JsonableError requires
subclassing in order to specify custom data or HTTP status codes.
This removes some complexity from the event_queue module.
To avoid code duplication, we reduce the `is_notifiable` methods to
internally just call the `trigger` methods and check their return value.
* Modify `maybe_enqueue_notifications` to take in an instance of the
dataclass introduced in 951b49c048.
* The `check_notify` tests tested the "when to notify" logic in a way
which involved `maybe_enqueue_notifications`. To simplify things, we've
earlier extracted this logic in 8182632d7e.
So, we just kill off the `check_notify` test, and keep only those parts
which verify the queueing and return value behavior of that funtion.
* We retain the the missedmessage_hook and message
message_edit_notifications since they are more integration-style.
* There's a slightly subtle change with the missedmessage_hook tests.
Before this commit, we short-circuited the hook if the sender was muted
(5a642cea11).
With this commit, we delegate the check to our dataclass methods.
So, `maybe_enqueue_notifications` will be called even if the sender was
muted, and the test needs to be updated.
* In our test helper `get_maybe_enqueue_notifications_parameters` which
generates default values for testing `maybe_enqueue_notifications` calls,
we keep `message_id`, `sender_id`, and `user_id` as required arguments,
so that the tests are super-clear and avoid accidental false positives.
* Because `do_update_embedded_data` also sends `update_message` events,
we deal with that case with some hacky code for now. See the comment
there.
This mostly completes the extraction of the "when to notify" logic into
our new `notification_data` module.
We already have this data in the `flags` for each user, so no need to
send this set/list in the event dictionary.
The `flags` in the event dict represent the after-message-update state,
so we can't avoid sending `prior_mention_user_ids`.
Since `flags` here could be iterated through multiple times
(to check for push/email notifiability), we use `Collection`.
Inspired by 871e73ab8f.
The other change here in the `event_queue` code is prep for using
the `UserMessageNotificationsData` class there.
Before this commit, we used to pre-calculate flags for user data and send
it to Tornado, like so:
```
{
"id": 10,
"flags": ["mentioned"],
"mentioned": true,
"online_push_enabled": false,
"stream_push_notify": false,
"stream_email_notify": false,
"wildcard_mention_notify": false,
"sender_is_muted": false,
}
```
This has the benefit of simplifying the logic in the event_queue code a bit.
However, because we sent such an object for each user receiving the event,
the string keys (like "stream_email_notify") get duplicated in the JSON
blob that is sent to Tornado.
For 1000 users, this data may take up upto ~190KB of space, which can
cause performance degradation in large organisations.
Hence, as an alternative, we send just the list of user_ids fitting
each notification criteria, and then calculate the flags in Tornado.
This brings down the space to ~60KB for 1000 users.
This commit reverts parts of following commits:
- 2179275
- 40cd6b5
We will in the future, add helpers to create `UserMessageNotificationsData`
objects from these lists, so as to avoid code duplication.
This is separate from the next commit for ease of testing.
To verify that the compatibility code works correctly, all message send
and event_queue tests from our test suite should pass on just this commit.
Unlike `receiver_is_off_zulip`, fetching from a dict is pretty cheap,
so we can calculate `online_push_enabled` along with the other
variables.
This is a prep change to start using the dataclass introduced in the
earlier commit in this code.
This gives us a single place where all user data for the message
send event is calculated, and is a prep change for introducing
a TypedDict or dataclass to keep this data toghether.
We have already calculated these values, so storing them should not cause
significant performance degradation.
This is a prep chenge for sending a few more flags through internal_data,
namely if `sender_is_muted`.
* In `event_queue.py`, only the sender and recipient users who have muted
the sender will have the "read" flag set.
* We already skip enqueueing notifications for users who've muted the sender
after 58da384da3.
* The queue consume functions for email and push notifications already
check filter messages which have been read before sending notifications.
* So, the "read" logic in `event_queue.py` is unnecessary, and the
processing power saved from not enqueueing notifications for a single
user should be insignificant, so we remove these checks all toghether.
Earlier, the notification-blocking for messages from muted senders
was a side-effect of we never sending notifications for messages
with the "read" flag.
This commit decouples these two things, as a prep for having new
settings which will allow users to **always** receive email
notifications, including when/if they read the message during the
time the notifications is in the queue.
We still mark muted-sender messages as "read" when they are sent,
because that's desirable anyways.
The old name `push_notify_user_ids` was misleading, because
it does not contain user ids which should be notified for
the current message, but rather user ids who have the online
push notifications setting enabled.
When the Tornado server is restarted during an upgrade, if
server has old events with the `push_notify_user_ids` fields,
the server will throw error after this rename. Hence, we need
to explicitly handle such cases while processing the event.
This ensures it is present for all requests; while that was already
essentially true via process_client being called from every standard
decorator, this allows middleware and other code to rely on this
having been set.
This help mobile and terminal clients understand whether a server
restart changed API feature levels or not, which in turn determines
whether they will need to resynchronize their data.
Also add tests and documentation for this previously undocumented
event type.
Fixes: #18205.
