A few major themes here:
- We remove short_name from UserProfile
and add the appropriate migration.
- We remove short_name from various
cache-related lists of fields.
- We allow import tools to continue to
write short_name to their export files,
and then we simply ignore the field
at import time.
- We change functions like do_create_user,
create_user_profile, etc.
- We keep short_name in the /json/bots
API. (It actually gets turned into
an email.)
- We don't modify our LDAP code much
here.
We generally want to avoid having two sibling test
suites depend on each other, unless there's a real
compelling reason to share code. (And if there is
code to share, we can usually promote it to either
test_helpers or ZulipTestCase, as I did here.)
This commit is also prep for the next commit, where
I try to simplify all of the helpers in EmojiReactionBase.
Especially now that we have f-strings, it is usually
better to just call api_post explicitly than to
obscure the mechanism with thin wrappers around
api_post. Our url schemes are pretty stable, so it's
unlikely that the helpers are actually gonna prevent
future busywork.
This issue isn't something a system administrator needs to take action
on -- it's a likely minor logic bug around organization
administrators moving topics between streams.
As a result, it shouldn't send error emails to administrators.
This is a hacky fix to avoid spoiler content leaking in emails. The
general idea here is to tell people to open Zulip to view the actual
message in full.
We create a mini-markdown parser here that strips away the fence content
that has the 'spoiler' tag for the text emails.
Our handling of html emails is much better in comparison where we can
use lxml to parse the spoiler blocks.
We include tests for the new implementation to avoid churning the
codebase too much so this can be easily reverted when we are able to
re-enable the feature.
We now do something sensible for spoilers in notifications. A message
like:
```spoiler Luke's father is
Vader. Don't tell anyone else.
```
would be rendered as:
Luke's father is (...)
If the push_notification for the UserMessage is already active,
we don't send any push notification to the user. This may
happen due to race conditions.
Added and fixed test cases affected by this.
This is similar to our behavior with image previews, and helps
reduce clutter in the final rendered html.
We add the string 'Tweet: ' to our existing tests so those tests
remain the same.
This commit makes our handling of twitter previews consistent with
how we handle our inline images so that tweets render next to the
paragraph that links to the tweet.
We decouple the logic of insertion rules for inline links from
image preview logic. Now, we can use this same logic for other
kinds of link previews as well.
We also remove the post_process_data option.
The sanity check is just overkill at this point,
since the mechanism to find streams is very
direct due to a recent commit.
Before this change we would only export streams
that had actual subscribers, which is usually
harmless, but it was mostly a relic of a one
time migration that we did when we were cleaning
up some dirty data in some of our very early
databases (circa 2016).
Now we work down the table hierarchy in a
more natural way:
- get Streams in Realm
- get Recipients matching above Streams
- get Subscriptions matching above Recipients
Note that for per-user exports, I kept the
same logic (users -> subscriptions -> recipients ->
streams) we had before.
One subtle detail here is that we make our
final Config blocks--which build the final
version of Recipient/Subscription--now hang
off of realm_config.
Fixes#15146.
This particular commit has been a long time coming. For reference,
!avatar(email) was an undocumented syntax that simply rendered an
inline 50px avatar for a user in a message, essentially allowing
you to create a user pill like:
`!avatar(alice@example.com) Alice: hey!`
---
Reimplementation
If we decide to reimplement this or a similar feature in the future,
we could use something like `<avatar:userid>` syntax which is more
in line with creating links in markdown. Even then, it would not be
a good idea to add this instead of supporting inline images directly.
Since any usecases of such a syntax are in automation, we do not need
to make it userfriendly and something like the following is a better
implementation that doesn't need a custom syntax:
` Alice: hey!`
---
History
We initially added this syntax back in 2012 and it was 'deprecated'
from the get go. Here's what the original commit had to say about
the new syntax:
> We'll use this internally for the commit bot. We might eventually
> disable it for external users.
We eventually did start using this for our github integrations in 2013
but since then, those integrations have been neglected in favor of
our GitHub webhooks which do not use this syntax.
When we copied `!gravatar` to add the `!avatar` syntax, we also noted
that we want to deprecate the `!gravatar` syntax entirely - in 2013!
Since then, we haven't advertised either of these syntaxes anywhere
in our docs, and the only two places where this syntax remains is
our game bots that could easily do without these, and the git commit
integration that we have deprecated anyway.
We do not have any evidence of someone asking about this syntax on
chat.zulip.org when developing an integration and rightfully so- only
the people who work on Zulip (and specifically, markdown) are likely
to stumble upon it and try it out.
This is also the only peice of code due to which we had to look up
emails -> userid mapping in our backend markdown. By removing this,
we entirely remove the backend markdown's dependency on user emails
to render messages.

Log RealmAuditLog in do_set_realm_property and do_remove_realm_domain.
Tests for the changes are written in test_events because it will save
duplicate code for test_change_realm_property.
Added new Event Type in AbstractRealmAuditLog STREAM_CREATED.
Since we finally create streams in create_stream_if_needed function
in zerver/lib/streams.py so logged realm_audit there.
Passed acting_user when create_stream_if_needed or ensure_stream
function is called.
Added tests in test_audit_log.
We had been using !time() syntax for timestamps so far. Since its
an unreleased feature, we can make changes without affecting many
people.
Fixes#15442.
Prior to this commit whenever convert was imported from zerver.lib.markdown
it was aliased as markdown_convert for readability.
This commit rename convert function to markdown_convert so that it can be
directly import it without aliasing and without compromising readability.
This fixes our triggering a RabbitMQ event to send a push notification
to remove the empty set of push notifications, resulting from not
using the correct data structure to determine which message IDs to look at.
This was causing a lot of visible exceptions when running
the `test_messages.py` test suite.
