Previously, we didn't pass customized HTTP_HOST headers when making
network requests. As we move towards a world where everything is on a
subdomain, we'll want to start doing that.
The vast majority of our test code is written to interact with the
default "zulip" realm, which has a subdomain of "zulip". While
probably longer-term, we'll wish this was the root domain, for now, we
need to make our HTTP requests match what is expected by the test
code.
This commit almost certainly introduces some weird bugs where code was
expecting a different subdomain but the tests doesn't fail yet. It's
not clear how to find all of these, but I've done some grepping.
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 should significantly improve the user experience for new users
signing up with GitHub/Google auth. It comes complete with tests for
the various cases. Further work may be needed for LDAP to not prompt
for a password, however.
Fixes#886.
This allows us to go to Registration form directly. This behaviour is
similar to what we follow in GitHub oAuth. Before this, in registration
flow if an account was not found, user was asked if they wanted to go to
registration flow. This confirmation behavior is followed for login
oauth path.
This error isn't saying that any kind of authentication or
authorization failed -- it's just a validation error like
any other validation error in the values the user is asking to
set. The thought of authentication comes into it only because
the setting happens to be *about* authentication.
Fix the error to look like the other validation errors around it,
rather than give a 403 HTTP status code and a "reason" field that
mimics the "reason" fields in `api_fetch_api_key`.
Currently we only pass headers in the first client_get call but
sometimes the effective request which reaches the view is through
a later call to the client_get in this function. Due to which
headers are not passed.
These handlers will kick into action when is_signup is False. In case
the account exists, the user will be logged in, otherwise, user will
be asked if they want to proceed to registration.
This fixes most cases where we were assigning a user to
the var email and then calling get_user_profile_by_email with
that var.
(This was fixed mostly with a script.)
The example_user() function is specifically designed for
AARON, hamlet, cordelia, and friends, and it allows a concise
way of using their built-in user profiles. Eventually, the
widespread use of example_user() should help us with refactorings
such as moving the tests users out of the "zulip.com" realm
and deprecating get_user_profile_by_email.
Specifically, this makes easily available to the desktop and mobile
apps data on the server's configuration, including important details
like the realm icon, name, and description.
It deprecates /api/v1/get_auth_backends.
This makes it possible for the Zulip mobile apps to use the normal web
authentication/Oauth flows, so that they can support GitHub, Google,
and other authentication methods we support on the backend, without
needing to write significant custom mobile-app-side code for each
authentication backend.
This PR only provides support for Google auth; a bit more refactoring
would be needed to support this for the GitHub/Social backends.
Modified by tabbott to use the mobile_auth_otp library to protect the
API key.
This completes a major redesign of the Zulip login and registration
pages, making them look much more slick and modern.
Major features include:
* Display of the realm name, description and icon on the login page
and registration pages in the subdomains case.
* Much slicker looking buttons and input fields.
* A new overall style for the exterior of these portico pages.
This commit makes sure that GitHubAuthBackend will only authenticate
using its own authenticate method. This is done by adding a new
Python Social Auth strategy which instead of calling authenticate
method of Django, calls the authenticate of the backend directly.
The problem this commit solves is that while authenticating through
GitHub backend, we were ending up getting authenticated through
ZulipDummyBackend. This might happen because the default strategy used
by Python Social Auth calls the authenticate method of Django which
iterates over all the backends and tries the authenticate methods
which match with the function arguments. The new strategy this commit
adds calls the authenticate method of GitHub backend directly which
makes sense because we already know that we want to authenticate with
GithHub.
The actual problem of why we are ending up on ZulipDummyBackend is
still a mystery because the function arguments passed to its
authenticate method are different. It shouldn't be called.
Show a user friendly message to the user if email is invalid.
Currently we show a generic message:
"Your username or password is incorrect."
The only backend which can accept a non-email username is LDAP.
So we check if it is enabled before showing the custom message.
Django uses arguments to differentiate between different authenticate
function so it is important to pass arguments in a predictable manner.
Keyword args will test the name of the argument as well.
zerver/lib/actions: removed do_set_realm_* functions and added
do_set_realm_property, which takes in a realm object and the name and
value of an attribute to update on that realm.
zerver/tests/test_events.py: refactored realm tests with
do_set_realm_property.
Kept the do_set_realm_authentication_methods and
do_set_realm_message_editing functions because their function
signatures are different.
Addresses part of issue #3854.
This fixes 2 related issues:
* We incorrectly would report authentication methods that are
supported by a server (but have been disabled for a given
realm/subdomain) as supported.
* We did not return an error with an invalid subdomain on a valid
Zulip server.
* We did not return an error when requesting auth backends for the
homepage if SUBDOMAINS_HOMEPAGE is set.
Comes with complete tests.
Change applies to both subdomains and non-subdomains case, though we use
just the EXTERNAL_HOST in the non-subdomains case if there is only 1 realm.
Fixes#3903.
This code was added as part of the Django 1.10 migration to make our
tests work with both Django 1.8 and 1.10. Now that we're on 1.10,
it's no longer required.
- Add server version to `fetch_initial_state_data`.
- Add server version to register event queue api endpoint.
- Add server version to `get_auth_backends` api endpoint.
- Change source for server version in `home` endpoint.
- Fix tests.
Fixes#3663
I believe this completes the project of ensuring that our recent work
on limiting what characters can appears in users' full names covers
the entire codebase.
In case realms have subdomains and the user hasn't been populated
yet in the Django User model, `ZulipLDAPAuthBackend` should not
rely on user's email domain to determine in which realm it should
be created in.
Fixes: #2227.
Finishes the refactoring started in c1bbd8d. The goal of the refactoring is
to change the argument to get_realm from a Realm.domain to a
Realm.string_id. The steps were
* Add a new function, get_realm_by_string_id.
* Change all calls to get_realm to use get_realm_by_string_id instead.
* Remove get_realm.
* (This commit) Rename get_realm_by_string_id to get_realm.
Part of a larger migration to remove the Realm.domain field entirely.
In Django 1.10, the get_token function returns a salted version of
csrf token which changes whenever get_token is called. This gives
us wrong result when we compare the state after returning from
Google authentication servers. The solution is to unsalt the token
and use that token to find the HMAC so that we get the same value
as long as t he token is same.
If the user comes in to HomepageForm with a set subdomain, use that to
determine the signup realm instead of the email address.
In the non-REALMS_HAVE_SUBDOMAINS case, still allow using the email address
if no subdomain is passed.
This makes it possible to configure only certain authentication
methods to be enabled on a per-realm basis.
Note that the authentication_methods_dict function (which checks what
backends are supported on the realm) requires an in function import
due to a circular dependency.
Does a database migration to rename Realm.subdomain to
Realm.string_id, and makes Realm.subdomain a property. Eventually,
Realm.string_id will replace Realm.domain as the handle by which we
retrieve Realm objects.
Previously, we used to create one Google OAuth callback url entry
per subdomain. This commit allows us to authenticate subdomain users
against a single Google OAuth callback url entry.
Apparently, in urllib.parse, one need to extract the query string from
the rest of the URL before parsing the query string, otherwise the
very first query parameter will have rest of the URL in its name.
This results in a nondeterministic failure that happens 1/N of the
time, where N is the number of fields marshalled from a dictionary
into the query string.
This makes us more consistent, since we have other wrappers
like client_patch, client_put, and client_delete.
Wrapping also will facilitate instrumentation of our posting code.
We would like to know which kind of authentication backends the server
supports.
This is information you can get from /login, but not in a way easily
parseable by API apps (e.g. the Zulip mobile apps).
Previously, api_fetch_api_key would not give clear error messages if
password auth was disabled or the user's realm had been deactivated;
additionally, the account disabled error stopped triggering when we
moved the active account check into the auth decorators.
