The original/legacy emoji reactions endpoints made use of HTTP PUT and
didn't have an API that could correctly handle situations where the
emoji names change over time. We stopped using the legacy endpoints
some time ago, so we can remove them now.
This requires straightforward updates to older tests that were still
written against the legacy API.
Fixes#12940.
This legacy endpoint was designed for the original native Zulip mobile
apps, which were deprecated years ago in favor of the React Native
app.
It was replaced by /server_settings for active use years ago, so it's
safe to remove it now.
Most of the failures were due to parameters that are not intended to
be used by third-party code, so the correct fix for those was the set
intentionally_undocumented=True.
Fixes#12969.
Even though required attribute of stream and stream_id params is marked
false in openapi specification, the API expects atleast one of the
params to be set. There is no way to specify relationships like this
openapi and they dont seem to have any plan to implement this in future.

This change adds the OpenAPI data needed to document the POST and
DELETE methods associated with this endpoint.
Descriptions edited slightly by tabbott.
This restructures the API endpoints that we currently have implemented
more or less for exclusive use by the mobile and desktop apps (things
like checking what authentication methods are supported) to use a
system that can be effectively parsed by our test_openapi
documentation.
This brings us close to being able to eliminate
`buggy_documentation_endpoints` as a persistently nonempty list.
This add some regular expression manipulation hacks to make it
possible for us to validate the documentation for the presence
endpoint with a slightly more complex regular expression capture
group.
Previously, our OpenAPI documentation validation was failing for some
endpoints because it didn't account for the `in: path` type of
parameter, resulting in a mismatch between what was declared via REQ
and what was declared in the OpenAPI docs.
We fix this by excluding the path type parameters in both places from
what's considered by documentation using the `path_only` flag.
I doubt this is the correct long-term fix; in particular, I don't
think we're actually running the validators for these path-only
parameters. The examples that exist today are all IDs with validators
for being non-negative numbers, but longer-term I think we'll want to
do something different (possibly at the REQ layer, see the TODO).
Our new curl example generation logic was broken, in that it hardcoded
localhost:9991 (without an HTTP method or anything) as the API URL.
It requires a bit of plumbing to make this possible.
Now that we can create cURL examples based on the OpenAPI
documentation. We can begin using simple one line tags in
the documentation instead of manually creating cURL examples.
Fixes part of #12878.
Now we can also include extra keyword arguments to specify
modifications in how the example code should be generated
in the generate_code_example template tag.
E.g. generate_code_example(curl, exclude=["param1", "param2"])
This commit extends api_code_examples.py to support automatically
generating cURL examples from the OpenAPI documentation. This way
work won't have to be repeated and we can also drastically reduce
the chance of introducing faulty cURL examples (via. an automated
test which can now be easily created).
This commit progress our efforts to reduce pending_endpoints
as well as to migrate away from templates/zerver/api/fixtures
and towards our OpenAPI documentation.
Similar to commit d62b75fc.
This commit add an pretty elaborate extension to the existing
openapi documentation validation test: test_openapi_arguments.
This does a metacode analysis, comparing the openapi documentation
with the appropriate function's declaration, default values etc.
While it has some limitations, it is able to catch various common
classes of mistakes in the types declared for our OpenAPI
documentation.
This is a prep commit for adding validation of the request variable
types since then we would need to actually analyze the code of the
actual function itself and we would need a variable storing the
function itself.
In commit 7c71e98, we added a special exception for the
/users/me/subscriptions endpoint in the automatic validation test.
By adding some extra documentation, we now remove this extra code,
as well as the endpoint from the list of pending endpoints.
In the validation test, we now use a different message for when there
is an endpoint in pending_endpoints with some documentation already.
This change is a bit hackish, but it's okay since we'll be removing it
once we've resolved all pending endpoints (which is bound to happen).
Extract some logical segments of test_openapi_arguments into
individual (helper) functions. E.g. extraction of the regex
to OpenAPI URL format conversion and testing.
The previous code for the validator test was fairly messy due to
checking for both formats of the openapi url, one with
<variable_name> and the other with {variable_name}. To eliminate
this, we have standardized the format and restricted it to
{variable_name} as per the official format at:
https://swagger.io/docs/specification/describing-parameters.
In addition to the test which checks to to see if each endpoint in
code (urls.py) is documented in the openapi documentation (and with
the right arugments). We now also have a test to see if every
endpoint in the openapi documentation is a legitimate endpoint
also existing in code.
We do this by piggy-backing on the work done be the former test and
using set operations. This method avoid the need for an extra loop
and it uses set operations for additional speed and ease of reading.
The main things targeted by the refactor are the usage of comments and
moving the top-level variables to the scope of the class.
The movement of variables was to facilitate allowing us to perform
a reverse mapping test from OpenAPI URLs -> Code defined URLs.
By importing a few view modules in the validation test itself we
can remove a few endpoints which were marked as buggy. What was
happening was that the view functions weren't imported and hence
the arguments map was not filled. Thus the test complained that
there was documentation for request parameters that seemed to be
missing in the code. Also, for the events register endpoint, we
have renamed one of the documented request parameters from
"stream" to "topic" (the API itself was not modified though).
We add a new "documentation_pending" attribute to req variables
so that any arguments not currently documented but should be
documented can be properly accounted for.
In each url of urls.py, if we want to mark an endpoint as being
intentionally undocumented, then in the kwargs instead of directly
mapping like 'METHOD': 'zerver.views.package.foo', we can provide
a tag called 'intentionally_undocumented' and map like:
'METHOD': ('zerver.views.package.foo', {'intentionally_undocumented'}).
If an endpoint is marked as intentionally undocumented, but we find
some OpenAPI documentation for it then we'll throw an error, in which
case either the 'intentionally_undocumented' tag should be removed or
the faulty documentation should be removed.
This will allow us to mark a REQ variable as intentionally
undocumented. With this, we can remove some of the endpoints marked
as "buggy" even though they're not actually buggy, we just needed to
specify certain parameters as intentionally undocumented (e.g. the
stream_id for the /users/me/subscriptions/muted_topics endpoint.)
Any REQ variable with intentionally_undocumentated set to True
will not be added to the arguments_map data structure.
For some of the other "buggy" endpoints, we would want to mark the
entire endpoint as being undocumented intentionally via. the urls.py
file.
This validation is incomplete, in large part because of the long list
of TODOs in this code. But this test should provide a ton of support
for us in avoiding regressions as we work towards having complete API
documentation.
See https://github.com/zulip/zulip/issues/12521 for a bunch of
follow-up improvements.
We found out in #9953 that, appparently, loading the OpenAPI file was
taking abut a 5% of the Zulip server startup time.
Since in many cases (especially in development) having the file loaded
won't be necessary at all, we read it on the first time data from the
OpenAPI spec is needed.
Tweaked by tabbott to add a test.
Automatically detect if the OpenAPI spec file has been modified since
the last time it was loaded into memory, and if it has, automatically
reload it to have the latest version.
This feature is designed with development environments in mind. The main
benefit is being able to see the changes made to the OpenAPI document
without needing to restart the development server, which is tedious and
slows the documentation workflow down.
