Add realm setting to set time limit for message deleitng.
Set default value of message_content_delete_limit_seconds
to 600 seconds(10 min).
Thanks to Shubham Dhama for rebasing and reworking this. Some final
edits also done by Tim Abbott.
Fixes#7344.
For certain queries where both include_history and
use_first_unread_anchor are set to True, we were excluding
historical rows. Now we only use the use_first_unread_anchor
flag to filter rows that we use to find the anchor, without
having it filter the actual search results.
The bug went unreported for a long time, because it only
affected mobile users who had newly subscribed to streams.
Note that we make a small change to the test called
test_use_first_unread_anchor_with_muted_topics, which has
a very scary comment about being "arcane" and "be
absolutely sure you know what you're doing." I think it's
fine.
Also, the new test code would fail before this fix, so it
should help prevent future regressions.
Fixes#8958
This is a bit more than a pure refactor, because we duplicate a
chunk of code to calculate a query inside of
find_first_unread_anchor(), so we're doing a bit more work
than before.
We need this refactoring to start decoupling find_first_unread_anchor
from get_messages_backend for the case where include_history is
True. This will happen in a subsequent commit.
The only test that changes here is a direct test on
find_first_unread_anchor(). All other tests pass without
modification, and we have decent coverage on get_messages_backend.
We use an array now to build up the list of search operands and
then consolidate the special search handling after the loop (which
means setting the flag, putting two more columns in the query, and
using ' '.join to build the string).
We have a debugging statement for some obscure errors we get
when narrows have search terms. We now show all the narrow
operators. This isn't really to improve debugging; it's more
to make it easier in the next commit to extract a function
that would make search_term have to be passed back in a tuple.
But it shouldn't hurt debugging either.
This is a pure refactoring and just pulls the function out
to the top level of the module. (The prior commit extracted
it inside a larger function to make a nicer diff.)
The new name can_access_stream_history_by_name gets to the point of
what this function actually does. And passing in a user object lets
us define what this does based on the user subscribed.
Applies the logic to allow community members to edit topics
of others' messages if this setting is True. Otherwise,
only administrators can update the topic of others' messages.
This logic includes a 24-hour time limit for community topic editing.
We now consistently set our query limits so that we get at
least `num_after` rows such that id > anchor. (Obviously, the
caveat is that if there aren't enough rows that fulfill the
query, we'll return the full set of rows, but that may be less
than `num_after`.) Likewise for `num_before`.
Before this change, we would sometimes return one too few rows
for narrow queries.
Now, we're still a bit broken, but in a more consistent way. If
we have a query that does not match the anchor row (which could
be true even for a non-narrow query), but which does match lots
of rows after the anchor, we'll return `num_after + 1` rows
on the right hand side, whether or not the query has narrow
parameters.
The off-by-one semantics here have probably been moot all along,
since our windows are approximate to begin with. If we set
num_after to 100, its just a rough performance optimization to
begin with, so it doesn't matter whether we return 99 or 101 rows,
as long as we set the anchor correctly on the subsequent query.
We will make the results more rigorous in a follow up commit.
This generic function isolates the before/after logic that really
is independent of Message and doesn't need to clutter up
`get_messages_backend`. Also, introducing a new namespace
reduces some shadowing/mutation with variables like `query`.
It's a pure code move, with some very minor renaming (e.g.
inner_msg_id_col -> id_col).
If anchor is 0, there is no sense doing a before_query.
Likewise, if anchor is `LARGER_THAN_MAX_MESSAGE_ID`, there is
no sense doing an after_query.
We introduce variables called `need_before_query` and
`need_after_query` to enforce those conditions.
This also adds some comments explaining the fallthrough case
where neither query makes sense.
If use_first_unread_anchor is set and we don't have any unread
messages, then our anchor is effectively "positive infinity" and
we can streamline queries.
In the past we'd have clauses like `message_id <= 999999999999999`
in the query that were harmless but crufty.
We want to say `if num_after > 0` when we expect num_after to be
a positive integer. We don't want any confusion that we will
execute the blocks for values of -7 or None.
This may be helpful for some API clients, since it avoids them needed
to do somewhat messy post-processing on the results (the data was
always available via scanning for the first unread message in the result).
Fixes#6244.
This is responsible for:
1.) Handling all the incoming requests at the
messages endpoint which have defer param set. This is similar to
send_message_backend apart from the fact that instead of really
sending a message it schedules one to be sent later on.
2.) Does some preliminary checks such as validating timestamp for
scheduling a message, prevent scheduling a message in past, ensure
correct format of message to be scheduled.
3.) Extracts time of scheduled delivery from message.
4.) Add tests for the newly introduced function.
5.) timezone: Add get_timezone() to obtain tz object from string.
This helps in obtaining a timezone (tz) object from a timezone
specified as a string. This string needs to be a pytz lib defined
timezone string which we use to specify local timezones of the
users.
This commit puts the guts of parse_usermessage_flags into
UserMessage.flags_list_for_flags, since it was slightly faster
than the old implementation and produced the same results.
(Both algorithms were super fast, actually.)
And then all callers use the model method now.
The logic to set search_fields was essentially the same for both
sides of the include_history conditional.
Now we have just one code block that sets search_fields, and we
can quickly short-circuit the loop when is_search is False.
