Since in travis we don't have root access so we used to add different
srv path. As now we shifted our production suites to Circle CI
we don't need that code so removed it.
Also we used a hacky code in commit-lint-message for travis which is
now of no use.
We no longer need to maintain duplicate code
related to where we set up the emoji
cache directory.
And we no longer need two extra steps for
people doing advanced (i.e. manual) setup.
There was no clear benefit to having provision
build the cache directory for `build_emoji`,
when it was easy to make `build_emoji` more
self-sufficient. The `build_emoji` tool
was already importing the library that has
`run_as_root`, and it was already responsible
for 99% of the create-directory kind of tasks.
(We always call `build_emoji` unconditionally from
`provision`, so there's no rationale in terms
of avoiding startup time or something.)
ASIDE:
Its not completely clear to me why we need
to put this directory in "/srv", instead of
somewhere more local (like we already do for
Travis), but maybe it's just to be like
its siblings in "/srv":
node_modules
yarn.lock
zulip-emoji-cache
zulip-npm-cache
zulip-py3-venv
zulip-thumbor-venv
zulip-venv-cache
zulip-yarn
I guess the caches that we keep in var are
dev-only, although I think some of what's under
`zulip-emoji-cache` is also dev-only in nature?
./var/webpack-cache
./var/mypy-cache
In `docs/subsystems/emoji.md` we say this:
```
The `build_emoji` tool generates the set of files under
`static/generated/emoji` (or really, it generates the
`/srv/zulip-emoji-cache/<sha1>/emoji` tree, and
`static/generated/emoji` is a symlink to that tree;we do this in
order to cache old versions to make provisioning and production
deployments super fast in the common case that we haven't changed the
emoji tooling). [...]
```
I don't really understand that rationale for the development
case, since `static/generated` is as much ignored by `git` as
'/srv' is, without the complications of needing `sudo` to create it.
And in production, I'm not sure how much time we're really saving,
as it takes me about 1.4s to fully rebuild the cache in dev, not to
mention we're taking on upgrade risk by sharing files between versions.
So, `source_emoji_dump` is not the greatest variable
name, but at least we now define it relative to its
parent instead of the `.success-stamp` file. (And
then `success_stamp` is just another join.)
This gives them cache-compatible URLs, and also avoids some extra
copies of the sprite sheet images.

This cleans up a few things:
- just yield values so we don't have to do
tedious max logic
- use values() instead of items() for
skin_variations loop
In the ideal world the emoji.json would reduce this
code to `get_square_size = lambda data: data['square_size']`,
but I don't think we can get the square size explicitly.
This commit changes the calculation of the
background-size parameter that we use to
render emojis from sprite sheets.
In particular, it now makes the parameter
match the sizes of our latest sprite
sheets from Twitter/Google.
This should fix the geometry aspect of #13959,
but we also need to fix some issues with the
cache being sticky.
There is also some minor cleanup:
- Remove obsolete -moz/-webkit CSS.
- Remove needless precision in percentages.
- Fix the transposed nrows/ncols names.
- Add extensive commenting.
Finally, we add a minor bump to the provision
number. This commit should be merged in the
same series as the other fix for this issue,
which will probably have a major bump, and we'll
need to rebase this appropriately.
webpack optimizes JSON modules using JSON.parse("{…}"), which is
faster than the normal JavaScript parser.
Update the backend to use emoji_codes.json too instead of the three
separate JSON files.

Instead of using a hardcoded value for spritesheet dimensions,
automatically calculate it using `emoji_data`. This will free
us from updating it only emoji datasource update as well as
allow us to add google blob emojiset.
This will help us in reducing the size of the release tarball
significantly. I have refrained from changing the `EMOJISETS`
constant in the `emoji_setup_utils.py` as that controls the
emojisets that we want to support. Since we want to re-enable
the feature of changing emojisets sometime again in the future
that variable should be kept as it is as it controls several
other things like emoji scripts that we use to generate emoji
names. Changing it might cause hard to catch bugs.
`emoji-datasource` package v4.0.4 introduced the concept of qualified
and non-qualified emoji codes. As chat programs don't need to use
emoji representation selector, so we used migrated our infrastructure
to use non-qualified emoji codes. But we missed the fact that the
emoji file names in emoji farm are based on emoji data's 'unified'
field and the value of this field has changed. Consequently the image
file names must also have been changed. We used `emoji_code` while
converting the span tags to img tags while processing notifications.
But since now `emoji_code` refers to non-qualified code while image
file names are based on qualified code, we need to rename images
to correctly do the conversion. This commit just fixes this.
This commit closes a long pending issue which involved moving the
`EMOTICON_CONVERSION` mapping to build_emoji infrastructure so
that there is only one source of truth. This was pending from the
time when this feature was implemented.
This commit updates the `emoji-datasource` packages to version 4.0.4.
This update brings following changes to emoji infra:
1: Fix for the bleeding sprite sheets.
2: The category of some emojis has been changed. Categorywise breakup of
net gain or loss is as follows:
Travel & Places: 58 (gain)
Symbols: 47 (loss)
Smileys & People: 52 (gain)
Objects: 11 (loss)
Food & Drink: 3 (gain)
Animals and Nature: 46 (gain)
Activities: 9 (loss)
3: There were some changes in the image farm of the package which were
breaking our old emoji farm. I fixed them by modifying the remapped
emoji map.
Fixes: #8235.
Google emojiset's octopus is really cute and whole Zulip community
loves it. So using a CSS hack, we hardcode octopus emoji to use image
from Google's emojiset only irrespective of the choosen emojiset.
This migrates Zulip to use a dramatically better set of names and
aliases for our emoji set, defined in emoji_names.py (which is in turn
manually generated from our hand-curated CSV file).
This should significantly improve the experience of using Zulip's
emoji picker and emoji typeahead for finding what one is looking for.
Credits to @rishig, Alice Lai, and @rntharu for naming all the emoji.
Names are inspired by iamcal, gemoji, and unicode names, sources like
emojipedia and iemoji, google search results for articles about emoji,
and emoji usage on twitter.
This commit switches our emoji infrastructure to use 256 color indexed
64px spritesheets. Earlier we were using non-indexed 32px spritesheets
which were blurry on high dpi displays. These indexed spritesheets not
only provide a crispier display but are also smaller in size.
This commit also removes the `emoji-datasource` package as a dependency
as all the data is now sourced from individual datasource packages.
Fixes: #7862.
This commit helps reduce clutter on the navigation sidebar.
Creates new directories and moves relevant files into them.
Modifies index.rst, symlinks, and image paths accordingly.
This commit also enables expandable/collapsible navigation items,
renames files in docs/development and docs/production,
modifies /tools/test-documentation so that it overrides a theme setting,
Also updates links to other docs, file paths in the codebase that point
to developer documents, and files that should be excluded from lint tests.
Note that this commit does not update direct links to
zulip.readthedocs.io in the codebase; those will be resolved in an
upcoming follow-up commit (it'll be easier to verify all the links
once this is merged and ReadTheDocs is updated).
Fixes#5265.
Emojis which are represented by a sequence of codepoints or emojis
with ZWJ are not included until we implement a mechanism for dealing
with their unicode versions.
Fixes: #6279.
Tweaked by tabbott to not remove it from lister.py, linter_lib, and
friends, since those are intended to support both Python 2 and 3
(we're planning to extract them from the repository).
This hack was used to fix the broken number emojis in the emoji picker.
It was broken because of the partial migration to the iamcal dataset.
See issue #4775 for more details.
This hack was used to fix the broken flag emojis in emoji-picker.
It was broken due to the incomplete migration to iamcal dataset.
See issue #4775 for more details.
This commit switches to use sprite sheets for rendering emojis
in all the remaining places, i.e., message bodies and composebox
typeahead. This commit also includes some changes to notifications.py
file so that the spans used for rendering emojis can be converted
to corresponding image tags so that we don't break the emoji rendering
in missed message emails since we can't use sprite sheets there.
As part of switching the bugdown system to use sprite sheets, we need
to switch the name_to_codepoint mappings to match the new sprite
sheets. This has the side effect of fixing a bunch of emoji like
numbers and flag emoji in the emoji pickers.
Fixes: #3895.
Fixes: #3972.
This function was used get a black and white glyph for an emoji if there
was no corresponding image file present in the `NotoColorEmoji.ttf` but
due to the new emoji farm setup code, we no longer need this.
This function was used to color transparent number emojis. We no
longer need to do this since now we have remapped number emojis
to the corresponding colored emojis in the new emoji farm.
We have symlinked the old emoji farm to the old emoji farm and hence
we don't use the images from the `NotoColorEmoji.ttf` file. This
function was used to generate a map from codepoint to filename by
parsing the ttx file passed to it. We no longer need this map.
This commit extracts out the `generate_map_files()` function from
the `dump_emojis()` function. This function generates various data
files like `emoji_codes.js`, `name_to_codepoint.json` etc which are
used by webapp, bugdown etc.
This commit removes the old emoji farm generation code in favor of
`setup_old_emoji_farm()`. Instead of having individual images in old
emoji farm we now symlink them to the images in the new emoji farm.
This commit adds `setup_old_emoji_farm()` function to the build_emoji
script. This will change the way of setting up the old emoji farm.
Earlier we used to extract the glyphs corresponding to each emoji from
the `NotoColorEmoji.ttf` file. But since now we already have individual
images in the new emoji farm(from iamcal's 'emoji-datasource-google' npm
package) we can just symlink old emoji files to the new image files. This
apart from helping us in cleaning up the `build_emoji` script will also
help in reducing the increased size of the release tarball due to the
addition of new emoji farm.
This enforces our use of a consistent style in how we access Python
modules; "from os.path import dirname" is a particularly popular
abbreviation inconsistent with our style, and so it deserves a lint
rule.
Commit message and error text tweaked by tabbott.
Fixes#6543.
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.
Updates `get_success_stamp()` function to use the `emoji-datasource`
package's version while calculating success stamp so that an emoji
cache rebuild gets triggered automatically if the version is changed.
This tool was used for downloading sprite sheets from iamcal's
repository. Since now we have moved to using `emoji-datasource`
npm package, this tool is no longer required.
This commit does the following things:
* Instead of using a manual tool for downloading sprite sheets, use
`emoji-datasource` npm package.
* Modify the `build_emoji` script to use sprite sheets from the npm
package.
Bumps PROVISION_VERSION.
Fixes: #4730.
Moves creating the emoji folder from the provisioning script to
the build_emoji script.
Fixes the fact that the emoji cache directory wasn't being created
when not using the provision.py script.
