Use this new variable to determine if the user already exists while
doing registration. While doing login through GitHub if we press
*Go back to login*, we pass email using email variable. As a result,
the login page starts showing the "User already exists error" if we
don't change the variable.
Previously, Zulip's server logs would not show which user or client
was involved in login or user registration actions, which made
debugging more annoying than it needed to be.
This allows us to go to Registration form directly. This behaviour is
similar to what we follow in GitHub oAuth. Before this, in registration
flow if an account was not found, user was asked if they wanted to go to
registration flow. This confirmation behavior is followed for login
oauth path.
These handlers will kick into action when is_signup is False. In case
the account exists, the user will be logged in, otherwise, user will
be asked if they want to proceed to registration.
Specifically, this makes easily available to the desktop and mobile
apps data on the server's configuration, including important details
like the realm icon, name, and description.
It deprecates /api/v1/get_auth_backends.
This makes it possible for the Zulip mobile apps to use the normal web
authentication/Oauth flows, so that they can support GitHub, Google,
and other authentication methods we support on the backend, without
needing to write significant custom mobile-app-side code for each
authentication backend.
This PR only provides support for Google auth; a bit more refactoring
would be needed to support this for the GitHub/Social backends.
Modified by tabbott to use the mobile_auth_otp library to protect the
API key.
Show a user friendly message to the user if email is invalid.
Currently we show a generic message:
"Your username or password is incorrect."
The only backend which can accept a non-email username is LDAP.
So we check if it is enabled before showing the custom message.
Django 1.10 has changed the implementation of this function to
match our custom implementation; in addition to this, we prefer
render().
Fixes#1914 via #4093.
This fixes 2 related issues:
* We incorrectly would report authentication methods that are
supported by a server (but have been disabled for a given
realm/subdomain) as supported.
* We did not return an error with an invalid subdomain on a valid
Zulip server.
* We did not return an error when requesting auth backends for the
homepage if SUBDOMAINS_HOMEPAGE is set.
Comes with complete tests.
- Add server version to `fetch_initial_state_data`.
- Add server version to register event queue api endpoint.
- Add server version to `get_auth_backends` api endpoint.
- Change source for server version in `home` endpoint.
- Fix tests.
