This adds a few new helpful context variables that we can use to
compute URLs in all of our templates:
* external_uri_scheme: http(s)://
* server_uri: The base URL for the server's canonical name
* realm_uri: The base URL for the user's realm
This is preparatory work for making realm_uri != server_uri when we
add support for subdomains.
The message cache filling script actually used both database and
memcached queries as part of filling the cache (all used to compute
the needed display_recipient values). We would ideally fix this by
using bulk operations to fill the display_recipient cache, but until
we do so, this cache filler is counterproductive.
I believe this disabling fixes an issue where memcached would get
overloaded and stop handling requests during a server restart on busy
servers.
Now attachment data gets written to its own json file. We are
splitting this out so that will be easier for us to cross-check
attachments against messages without holding up writing a lot
of the other realm data. (message cross-checking is coming soon)
This commit doesn't change any behavior; it just moves fetching
attachments out of the Config scheme and into its own method.
This prepares us to start writing attachment data to its own
file and cross-checking against message ids (coming soon).
We now just have a single configuration get_realm_config() that
handles most of the top-down realm export tables. (It basically
does everything not related to messages or uploads/avatars.)
Unifying the configs allows us to be more strict in our
configuration about checking for anomalies. In the future
we may need to loosen up some of those restrictions again,
but for now we are picky and paranoid.
Fetch stream data only for stream recipients, instead of
getting streams via realm_id.
(This change is kind of moot for now, since our stream recipients
include all possible stream recipients in the realm, but this
sets us up for when we start restricting users that we export
within the realm.)
The previous model for these Nagios checks was kinda crazy -- every
minute, we'd run a full `rabbitmctl list_consumers` for each of the
dozen+ consumers that we have, and then do the exact same parsing
logic for each to determine whether the target queue has a running
consumer to write out a state file.
Because `rabbitmctl list_consumers` takes a small amount of resources,
on systems where CPU is very limited (e.g. t2 style AWS instances),
this minor CPU wastage could be problematic.
Now we just do that `rabbitmqctl list_consumers` once per minute, and
output all the state files from a single command.
Further TODO items on this front include removing the hardcoded list
of queues.
Previously, missed message emails with multiple senders would
incorrectly have a "," outside the quoted sender name part of the from
address string, resulting in confusing email output.
This commit introduces the ability to do custom fetches
and to essentially use temp tables for intermediate results.
(The temp table stuff deals with recipients/subscriptions
having three different flavors--user, stream, and huddle.)
Because rabbitmq doesn't support changing the nodename of a running
rabbitmq node, Zulip installations suffered a plague of issues where
e.g. a Zulip server would reboot, the hostname would change, and
suddenly the local rabbitmq instance being used by Zulip would stop
working.
We address this problem by using, by default, a fixed rabbitmq
nodename, but providing server administrators the option to set the
rabbitmq nodename used by Zulip however they choose.
To upgrade an existing server to use this new configuration, one will
need to add something like the following to /etc/zulip/zulip.conf:
[rabbitmq]
nodename = zulip@localhost
However, I don't believe we have the puppet code in place to make this
work correctly at initial installation without rabbitmq-server being
already installed (but off), as we can easily setup in Travis CI but I
haven't been willing to do for the installer. So for now, this just
fixes our Travis CI problems.
Fixes: #1579.
Travis CI seems to have changed the way the snakeoil SSL certs are
generated in their infrastructure, so we need to update our expected
"success" HTTP headers accordingly.
Most directly useful for the migration to zulipchat.com.
Creates a new field in UserProfile to store the tos_version, as well as two
new settings TOS_VERSION and FIRST_TIME_TOS_TEMPLATE. We check for a version
mismatch between what the user has signed and the current
settings.TOS_VERSION whenever the user hits the home page, and redirect them
if needed.
Note that accounts_accept_terms.html and
zerver.views.accounts_accept_terms were unused before this commit
(they date from c327446537)
Previously, we used a fixed memcached memory allocation of 512MB,
regardless of the size of the server. While that is a good allocation
for a server with 4GB of RAM, for servers with less, we should
decrease the allocation, and for a large server with much more RAM, we
should increase it. We still support the user overriding the
configuration setting, but this produces more sensible defaults.
