Mateusz Mandera 0d6b1cd08b docs: Tweak phrasing about OIDC supporting only a single provider.
Strictly speaking, this sentence is talking about the IdP configuration,
while the backend is just GenericOpenIdConnectBackend, so the new
phrasing is more correct.

Mateusz Mandera c54b48452d saml: Support syncing custom profile fields with SAML attributes.
Fixes #17277.

The main limitation of this implementation is that the sync happens if
the user authing already exists. This means that a new user going
through the sign up flow will not have their custom fields synced upon
finishing it. The fields will get synced on their consecutive log in via
SAML in the future. This can be addressed in the future by moving the
syncing code further down the codepaths to login_or_register_remote_user
and plumbing the data through to the user creation process.

We detail that limitation in the documentation.

Strifel 209c89be10 ldap: Add option to limit user access to certain realms.
This adds an option for restricting a ldap user
to only be allowed to login into certain realms.
This is done by configuring an attribute mapping of "org_membership"
to an ldap attribute that will contain the list of subdomains the ldap
user is allowed to access. This is analogous to how it's done in SAML.

Dinesh 4afce5d94d apple_auth: Change BUNDLE_ID setting to APP_ID everywhere.
The apple developer webapp consistently refers this App ID. So,
this clears any confusion that can occur.

Since python social auth only requires us to include App ID in
_AUDIENCE(a list), we do that in computed settings making it easier for
server admin and we make it much clear by having it set to
APP_ID instead of BUNDLE_ID.

Greg Price 71c995d50d docs: Explain a bit more explicitly how to configure Apple auth.
In particular the Services ID and Bundle ID each have one of Apple's
random-looking 10-character identifiers, in addition to the Java-style
names the admin chooses.  Best to be clear about what names are
supposed to be the chosen names and which are supposed to be the
random-looking assigned names.

(I don't know of any docs elsewhere making this clear -- but I guessed
it'd be this way, and empirically it works.)

Also mention you need to enable the backend. :-)

Greg Price 0021dfe8e7 auth settings: Put Apple "Team ID" before the things it namespaces.
I believe the Bundle ID (aka App ID) and Services ID have meaning only
relative to a specific Team ID.  In particular, in some places in the
developer.apple.com UI, they're displayed in a fully-qualified form
like "ABCDE12345.com.example.app", where "com.example.app" is the
App ID or Services ID and ABCDE12345 is the Team ID.

Tim Abbott e38c58e7c7 docs: Rewrite LDAP discussion of AUTH_LDAP_REVERSE_EMAIL_SEARCH.
This moves the mandatory configuration for options A/B/C into a single

think the result is significantly more readable.

It also fixes a bug where we suggested setting
AUTH_LDAP_REVERSE_EMAIL_SEARCH = AUTH_LDAP_USER_SEARCH in some cases,
whereas in fact it will never work because the parameters are
`%(email)s`, not `%(user)s`.

Also, now that one needs to set AUTH_LDAP_REVERSE_EMAIL_SEARCH, it
seems worth adding values for that to the Active Directory
instructions.  Thanks to @alfonsrv for the suggestion.

Mateusz Mandera fea4d0b2be ldap: Do a proper search for email in email_belongs_to_ldap.
This fixes a collection of bugs surrounding LDAP configurations A and
C (i.e. LDAP_APPEND_DOMAIN=None) with EmailAuthBackend also enabled.

The core problem was that our desired security model in that setting
of requiring LDAP authentication for accounts managed by LDAP was not
implementable without a way to

Now admins can configure an LDAPSearch query that will find if there
are users in LDAP that have the email address and
email_belongs_to_ldap() will take advantage of that - no longer
returning True in response to all requests and thus blocking email
backend authentication.

In the documentation, we describe this as mandatory configuration for
users (and likely will make it so soon in the code) because the
failure modes for this not being configured are confusing.

But making that change is pending work to improve the relevant error
messages.

Fixes #11715.

David Rosa bdbc384de5 docs: Reduce the number of apparently broken links on github.
- Updated 260+ links from ".html" to ".md" to reduce the number of issues
reported about hyperlinks not working when viewing docs on Github.
- Removed temporary workaround that suppressed all warnings reported
by sphinx build for every link ending in ".html".

Details:
The recent upgrade to recommonmark==0.5.0 supports auto-converting
".md" links to ".html" so that the resulting HTML output is correct.

Notice that links pointing to a heading i.e. "../filename.html#heading",
were not updated because recommonmark does not auto-convert them.
These links do not generate build warnings and do not cause any issues.
However, there are about ~100 such links that might still get misreported
as broken links.  This will be a follow-up issue.

Background:
docs: pip upgrade recommonmark and CommonMark #13013
docs: Allow .md links between doc pages #11719

Fixes #11087.

Harshit Bansal bf14a0af4d auth: Migrate google auth to python-social-auth.
This replaces the two custom Google authentication backends originally
written in 2012 with using the shared python-social-auth codebase that
we already use for the GitHub authentication backend.  These are:

* GoogleMobileOauth2Backend, the ancient code path for mobile
  authentication last used by the EOL original Zulip Android app.

* The `finish_google_oauth2` code path in zerver/views/auth.py, which
  was the webapp (and modern mobile app) Google authentication code
  path.

This change doesn't fix any known bugs; its main benefit is that we
get to remove hundreds of lines of security-sensitive semi-duplicated
code, replacing it with a widely trusted, high quality third-party
library.

Puneeth Chaganti 717d1e504d ldap: Turn off the AUTH_LDAP_ALWAYS_UPDATE_USER setting.
The `AUTH_LDAP_ALWAYS_UPDATE_USER` is `True` by default, and this would sync the

field. This commit disables the setting by default, in favour of using the

Samuel Searles-Bryant c87893feea docs: Update .html links to .md.
Sphinx/ReadTheDocs supports automatically translating links written as

migration does not change the resulting HTML output in ReadTheDocs.
But it does fix apparent broken links on GitHub.

This doesn't prevent people from reading the documentation on GitHub
(so doesn't mitigate the fact that some rtd-specific syntax does not
render properly on GH), but it will prevent us from getting erroneous
issues reported about the hyperlinks not working.

Greg Price a612049ac4 docs: Expand on LDAP config; try to clarify "username" concept.
The term "username" confusingly refers both to the Django concept of
"username" (meaning "the name the user types into the login form") and
a concept the admin presumably already has in their existing
environment; which may or may not be the same thing, and in fact this
is where we document the admin's choice of whether and how they should
correspond.  The Django concept in particular isn't obvious, and is
counterintuitive when it means something like an email address.

Explicitly explain the Django "username" concept, under the name of
"Zulip username" to take responsibility for our choice of how it's
exposed in the settings interface.  Then use an explicit qualifier,
like "LDAP username", whenever referring to some other notion of
username.  And make a pass over this whole side of the instructions,
in particular for consistent handling of these concepts.

natural to keep a browser open somewhere than a second terminal.
