This optimizes tools/provision by not running
`tools/update-authors-json --use-fixture` unless either the script
itself or its fixtures file (zerver/tests/fixtures/authors.json) was
changed.
Fixes#10991.
We were already correctly including libssl-dev in Zulip's dependencies
in development environment provisioning, but (at least now) it's
needed to build certain Python packages like pycurl when building a
Zulip virtualenv in production. I haven't investigated why we didn't
need this on Ubuntu, but one possible reason would be that some other
library in our dependencies list happens to depend on it on Ubuntu.
We fix this by moving the dependency over to the shared
VENV_DEPENDENCIES list.
Fixes part of #9946.
This results in a significant optimization in the performance of
re-provisioning Zulip if all that you're doing is rebasing onto a
newer version of master (which just adds new migrations).
The change carries some risk of generating unpleasant-to-debug
situations, because if we merge a buggy migration and then later fix
it, some clients may not have a properly migrated database (and also,
this changes how populate_db commutes with migrations). But it seems
worth it, given how much time is currently wasted by not having this.
Fixes: #9512.
In this commit we are essentially just refactoring the function
is_template_database_current to be called template_database_status
and adjusting the return values accordingly.
This is essentially a preparatory commit for the upcoming commits
which will essentially enable us to not throw away entire DB and
rebuild from scratch if only running migrations could do the job.
This improves the performance of these operations, by saving a ~50ms
Python process startup. While not a major performance improvement, it
seems worth it, given how often these commands get run.
Fixes#9571.
We essentially stop running create_realm_internal_bots during
every provisioing and move its operations to run from populate db.
In fact to speed things up a bit we actually make populate db call the
funcs which create_realm_internal_bots calls behind the scenes.
Fixes: #9467.
Now that we have tsearch_extras packages uploaded, this mostly works.
There's a few issues being debugged in #9460; they should be fixed
soon, and regardless, merging this will make it easier to develop.
Apparently, we were incorrectly appending each new hash onto the end
of the file, basically resulting in every run of provision being
treated as a miss for this cache.
Fixing this saves about 4s (over 1/3) of the no-op provision time.
This fixes a bug where provision was failing since our most recent
upgrade to yarn/nvm/node.
It turns out my original fix was the correct fix, but to the wrong
third-party tool: nvm, not yarn, was the offender.
For now, this does nothing in a production environment, but it should
simplify the process of doing testing on the Thumbor implementation,
by integrating a lot of dependency management logic.
This isn't really the right way to do this -- commit
dcd80e665 "travis/setup-backend: Remove the '--travis' flag"
took us in the wrong direction by introducing more magic, deeper in
the stack.
But it's the same way we do it for Travis. For now, just copy that.
[Thanks to hackerkid for cleaning up my original crude hack.]
At this point if we were accidentally using `/srv/zulip-venv` for
anything, we'd have run into it by now. So just drop the bit of
historical logic that we had to ensure that.
This prevents the caches in /srv from growing to fill up the disk --
e.g., on my laptop after 6 months of regular development the venv cache
was 12G and the NPM cache 5G, making them by far the largest disk hogs
on the machine.
It costs about 0.4s, apart from any time spent actually removing
things. This is a little annoyingly slow to be adding to every
provision, and seems like it could be optimized, but I think already
worth it as is.
This should mean that maintaining two Zulip development environments
using the same Git checkout no longer has caching problems keeping
track of the migration status.
This didn't work at all when one did a `vagrant destroy` and then
`vagrant up`, because the cache state would be preserved even though
the machine is gone.
Fixes#5981.
This commit implements support for copying over static files
for all bots in the zulip_bots package to
static/generated/bots/ during provisioning. This directory
isn't tracked by Git. This allows us to have access to files
stored in an arbitrary zulip_bots package directory somewhere
on the system. For now, logo.* and doc.md files are copied over.
This commit should act as a starting point for extending our
macro-based Markdown framework to our bots/API packages'
documentation and eventually rendering these static files
alongside our webhooks' documentation.
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.
We can't fully support it until we fix the tsearch_extras availability
issue, but for now, this is an improvement.
Tweaked by tabbott to cover the outstanding tsearch_extras issue.
Apparently, this was missing on Xenial, and we just never noticed
because the package was installed by default on Ubuntu.
It doesn't exist yet in Trusty.
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.
NPM packages should be installed at the beginning of the provisioning
process so that later in the provisioning process if a script requires
any NPM package it can use it. Earlier, we were installing NPM packages
in the last as the installation process can fail due to network issues
but since we now retry in case the installation fails, they can be
installed safely at the beginning of the process as well just like apt
packages.
This brings the total no-op provision time down to around 7.3s!
Tweaked by tabbott to clean up the code, close file descriptions, and
avoid issues with a somehow corrupted file.
Fixes#5185.
This reuses the work we did some time ago to avoid regenerating the
test database unnecessarily.
In addition to being a nice convenience for developers (since any
accomulated test data is still available), this also saves about half
the time consumed in a no-op provision.
Fixes#5182.
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.
Modified composebox_typeahead.js to recognize the triple backtick
and tilde for code blocks, and added appropriate typeahead functions
in that file and in typeahead_helper.js.
Additionally, a new file pygments_data.js contains a dictionary of
the supported languages, mapping to relative popularity
rankings. These rankings determine the order of sort of the
languages in the typeahead.
This JavaScript file is actually in static/generated/pygments_data.js, as it
is generated by a Python script, tools/build_pymgents_data.py. This is
so that if Pygments adds support for new languages, the JavaScript file
will be updated appropriately. This python script uses a set of popularity
rankings defined in lang.json.
Corresponding unit tests were also added.
Fixes#4111.
Before this commit, provisioning was done by executing provision.py,
which printed the log directly to stdout, making debugging harder.
This commit creates a wrapper bash script 'provision' in tools, which
calls 'zulip/scripts/tools/provision_vm.py' (the new location of
provision.py) and prints all the output to
'zulip/var/log/zulip/zulip_provision.log' via 'tee'.
Travis tests and docs have been modified accordingly.
