Before this change, we populated two cache entries for each
message that we sent. The entries were largely redundant,
with the only difference being whether we sent the content
as raw markdown or as the rendered HTML.
This commit makes it so we only have one cache entry per
message, and it includes both content and rendered_content.
One legacy source on confusion here is that `content`
changes meaning when you're on the front end. Here is the
situation going forward:
database:
content = raw
rendered_contented = rendered
cache entry:
content = raw
rendered_contented = rendered
payload for the frontend:
content = raw (for apply_markdown=False)
content = rendered (for apply_markdown=True)
Now we use 'git ls-files' to get the list of locales that we actually
track. Previously we were using os.listdir to get the contents of the
static/locale directory. This could also return locales which were
present in the directory but are not supported by us, e.g. zh_CN.
We have been assigning locale to language code. Mostly code and locale
are same but for languages like zh-Hans, locale is zh_Hans and code is
zh-hans.
After this commit, compilemessages command should be run.
Previously we were using regexes to extract the language from our
locale files. Now we use LANG_INFO data structure provided by Django
to do the same and fallback to PO files only when language code is not
present in the Django data structure.
This should mean that maintaining two Zulip development environments
using the same Git checkout no longer has caching problems keeping
track of the migration status.
Previously we used to mark a key as unstranlated if its value was equal
to it in translations.json. This had an issue because it didn't allow
otherwise valid cases where key was equal to the value.
This commit solves the problem by disallowing an empty string as a valid
translation and then using the empty string as the value for all the
unstranslated keys.
Fixes#5261
compilemessages command now does all the heavy lifting by creating a
language_name_map.json file under locale directory. This file is used
by get_language_list to retrieve the require information.
Fixes: #6486
The commit() call in fix() breaks migrations and tests (unless you
mock) due to outer transactions.
We now explicitly call commit() from the management command.
This commit completely switches us over to using a
dedicated model called MutedTopic to track which topics
a user has muted.
This includes the necessary migrations to create the
table and populate it from legacy data in UserProfile.
A subsequent commit will actually remove the old field
in UserProfile.
The double forward slash (//) after the protocol in URLs was being
mistakenly considered the beginning of an inline JS comment, causing
internationalization strings being cut unexpectedly.
Now the check for inline JS comments is only run in .js files.
This code empirically doesn't work. It's not entirely clear why, even
having done quite a bit of debugging; partly because the code is quite
convoluted, and because it shows the symptoms of people making changes
over time without really understanding how it was supposed to work.
Moreover, this code targets an old version of the APNs provider API.
Apple deprecated that in 2015, in favor of a shiny new one which uses
HTTP/2 to meet the same needs for concurrency and scale that the old
one had to do a bunch of ad-hoc protocol design for.
So, rip this code out. We'll build a pathway to the new API from
scratch; it's not that complicated.
Most of the code in show_unreads is for diagnosising unread
counts issues, and we may not use that often.
We're creating a dedicated fix_unreads management command with
less clutter.
This causes `upgrade-zulip-from-git`, as well as a no-option run of
`tools/build-release-tarball`, to produce a Zulip install running
Python 3, rather than Python 2. In particular this means that the
virtualenv we create, in which all application code runs, is Python 3.
One shebang line, on `zulip-ec2-configure-interfaces`, explicitly
keeps Python 2, and at least one external ops script, `wal-e`, also
still runs on Python 2. See discussion on the respective previous
commits that made those explicit. There may also be some other
third-party scripts we use, outside of this source tree and running
outside our virtualenv, that still run on Python 2.
This management command creates the same indexes as migrations
82, 83, and 95, which are all indexes on the huge UserMessage
table. (*)
This command quickly no-ops with clear messaging when the
indexes already exist, so it's idempotent in that regard. (If
somebody somehow creates an index by the same name incorrectly,
they can always drop it in dbshell and re-run this command.)
If any of the migrations have not been run, which we detect simply
by the existence of the indexes, then we create them using a
`CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY` command. This functionality in
postgres allows you to create indexes against large tables
without disrupting queries against those tables. The tradeoff
here is that creating indexes concurrently takes significantly
longer than doing them non-concurrently.
Since most tables are small, we typically just use regular
Django migrations and run them during a brief interval while
the app is down.
For indexes on big tables, we will want to run this command
as part of the upgrade process, and we will want to run
it while the app is still up, otherwise it's pointless.
All the code in create_indexes() is literally copy/pasted
from the relevant migrations, and that scheme should work
going forward. (It uses a different implementation of
create_index_if_not_exist than the migrations use, but the
code is identical lexically in the function.)
If we ever do major restructuring of our large tables, such
as UserMessage, and we end up droppping some of these indexes,
then we will need to make this command migrations-aware. For
now it's safe to assume that indexes are generally additive in
nature, and the sooner we create them during the upgrade process,
the better.
(*) UserMessage is huge for large installations, of course.
This no longer does the correct thing (in terms of onboarding emails,
default streams, etc), and is tempting for new server admins to use.
Once we remove it we'll also have the invariant that we can't have a realm
without a user, which will simplify accounts_register a bit.
This now breaks the process of cleaning up unread counts for
non-active streams into a three step process.
This allows us to use our unread message flags index, at least
in testing on dev. Here is the relevant excerpt from explain
analyze:
Bitmap Index Scan on zerver_usermessage_unread_message_id
This makes supervisor see the service as cheerfully running
and let it alone, rather than constantly retry starting it.
Because the crash/restart loop means repeatedly spending a
couple of seconds loading Django and the app, separated by
brief periods while supervisor notices the crash and acts
on it, it was actually consuming about 30-50% CPU on the
zulipchat.com staging server.
This is to be used for the case of container orchestration instead of
shell arg to prevent snooping by any user account on the server via `ps
-ef` or any superuser with read access to the user\'s bash history.
ScheduledJob was written for much more generality than it ended up being
used for. Currently it is used by send_future_email, and nothing
else. Tailoring the model to emails in particular will make it easier to do
things like selectively clear emails when people unsubscribe from particular
email types, or seamlessly handle using the same email on multiple realms.
Both the queue processor and ScheduledJob emails need to sometimes pass a
to_user_id and sometimes pass a to_email, and it's more convenient to just
have one function that they can call that can handle either.
Also removes the now redundant send_email_to_user.
The MitUser table was removed in df525ad.
confirm_mituser.html could have been accessed through the last few lines of
confirmation/views.py:
templates.insert(0, 'confirmation/confirm_%s.html'
% (obj._meta.model_name,))
The commit message on df525ad suggests there was another way
confirm_mituser.html could have been called, but I don't currently see
evidence for it in the code.
Usually we write translation expressions as `{{t ... }}`, but `{{ t ... }}`
is equally valid as far as Handlebars is concerned, and it matches how we
usually write simple variable substitutions, as `{{ ... }}`. So occasionally
someone writes `{{ t ... }}`; currently there are two examples of this
in the codebase, in `settings/bot-{settings,list-admin}.handlebars`.
Probably it'd be good to pick a style and enforce it uniformly, but
until we do, the other style shouldn't break translation.
- For threaded workers:
Django's autoreloader catches SIGQUIT(3) to reload the program. If
a process being watched by autoreloader exits with status code 3,
reloader will restart the process. To reload, we send SIGUSR1(10)
signal from consumers to a handler in process_queue which then
exits with status code 3.
- For single worker per process:
Catch the SIGUSR1 and quit; supervisorctl will restart the worker
automatically.
Fixes#5512
This system hasn't been in active use for several years, and had some
problems with it's design. So it makes sense to just remove it to declutter
the codebase.
Fixes#5655.
This new library is intended to make it easy for management commands
to access a realm or a user in a realm without having to duplicate any
of the annoying parsing/extraction code.
