Based on an original version written by Rishi, but this has been
basically rewritten by tabbott.
We also clean up one confusing part of our Slack docs.
The Botserver uses section headers in the flaskbotrc to
determine which bot to run. Silently setting the section
headers to a bot's username is confusing and makes it
harder for Botserver users to figure out how to get the
Botserver to run the bots they want. This commit empties
all flaskbotrc section headers and thus makes the assignment
of bots explicit and mandatory.
Previously, the Botserver determined which bot to run for an
outgoing webhook by dispatching on a different URL endpoint
for each bot. Now, instead, the Botserver determines which bot
to run by the section header of the bot in the flaskbotrc.
This commit makes the frontend provide the new flaskbotrc
and updates the setup steps for the Botserver in the docs.
Fixes#9516.
Scrollbar appeared in the subdomain input box while registering an
org. This is a hacky solution to the problem and doesn't work for
long domain names. A proper fix for the same should be provided in
the future.
This should significantly improve the user experience for creating
additional accounts on zulipchat.com.
Currently, disabled in production pending some work on visual styling.
UnexpectedWebhookEventType is a generic exception that we may
now raise when we encounter a webhook event that is new or one
that we simply aren't aware of.
This adds a tour of Zulip to the bottom of the homepage.
In order to get the carousel nave, we use Bootstrap 2 from a CDN on
this page; this isn't ideal in the medium term, but upgrading
Bootstrap across the project is too much work for now.
Fixes#9433.
Extra bottom margin was observed when using `compose_error` which
was caused by paragraphs in bootstrap having a bottom margin of 10px.
The paragraph tag has been replaced by a span tag.
Fixes#9182. Adds a link to the keyboard shortcuts popup at the
bottom-right corner of the right sidebar. A tooltip saying
`Keyboard Shortcuts(?)` has been added to the icon. The icon is
positioned using `position: fixed`.
We were devoting too much space/text to documenting our Markdown
macro. It is much more concise to just have a description and a
link to an example doc for each major macro.
This fixes several super-confusing things in these docs. Bot services
aren't a user-facing concept, and also, you need the URL before
creating the bot users.
The Python bindings (which are used for bots, amongst other things) can
be configured either with a .zuliprc file or with environment variables
in the host machine.
This new page in the user docs explains how to set the bindings up using
both techniques, and is a good reference on the setup required by Zulip
bots.
