Priscilla 7c0431a60f docs: Correct the instructions for re-running provision.
We apparently missed this when renaming provision.py to simply
provision.

rht e0f7b6f8ef docs: Remove the yarn.lock stutter.
Maybe someday someone will spot this err. However, the documentation is
clear in conveying its content even with the extra yarn.lock.

Greg Price 7e8bbda171 docs/logging: Update for the revised log format.
This accumulates several changes in recent commits: decimal point
rather than comma, compact log level, and logger names, the latter
abbreviated `zr` in the case of `zulip.request`.

Alena Volkova bcb9c76457 docs: Clarify who can collaborate in area label teams.
Collaboration in area label teams is only available to members of the
Zulip organization on GitHub. For non-members the related links are
not working, which can be confusing.  Address this by explaining the
links won't work and also that anyone can join.

Greg Price 7b8f725707 APNs: Accept 1.6-format payloads in bouncer.
This is just enough of a quick fix to work with a stock Zulip 1.6
server.  We should really also make this robust to arbitrary input
from the remote Zulip server, even though it'll be a little tedious.

Tim Abbott a2243378ea settings: Set REALMS_HAVE_SUBDOMAINS by default.

Eeshan Garg 390a1fec92 zulip_bots: Generate static files during provisioning.
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.

Tim Abbott 3708f5708a upgrade: Include zulip::static_asset_compiler by default.
Since we've found that it's fairly frequent that we want to recommend

makes sense to include that by default.

Greg Price 78b41f375d py3: Revise and update shebang discussion in docs/shell-tips.
This keeps the examples in line with our actual codebase.

Also while I'm here revise it to explain the actual motivation for our
use of `env`, and to correct some subtle details -- it's actually the
kernel that interprets the shebang (as visible in e.g. a `strace` log),
not the shell, and when the program is executed as `./my_program.py`
the exact name including `./` is passed to the interpreter.
2017-08-16 17:54:43 -07:00
Greg Price a099e698e2 py3: Switch almost all shebang lines to use `python3`.
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.

Greg Price cd897b7a99 docs/prod*: Simplify core install instructions a bit by cutting /root/zulip .
This works fine in my testing -- I followed it on a fresh `trusty` VM,
after just getting SSL certs with our LetsEncrypt instructions, and
the install completed successfully.

And in the source tree, the only evidence I can find of a potential
remaining dependency on the `/root/zulip` path is the Nagios config in
`puppet/zulip_ops/`.  That's actually already broken, in that it
depends on `/root/zulip/api/`, so we'll have to sort that out;
and in any case, it doesn't matter to most people installing Zulip.

Add a mention that the install script will move the just-unpacked
directory out from under you.  While we're here, add a few words about
where the deployed code is laid out.

Text of those last words tweaked by tabbott.
2017-08-15 17:46:42 -07:00

Greg Price e469578a55 py3: Fix up (almost) all script invocations to rely on shebangs.
This follows up on 207cf6302 from last year to clean up cases that
have apparently popped up since then.  Invoking the scripts directly
makes a cleaner command line in any case, and moreover is essential
to how we control running a Zulip install as either Python 2 or 3
(soon, how we always ensure it runs as Python 3.)

One exception: we're currently forcing `provision` in dev to run
Python 3, while still running both Python 2 and Python 3 jobs in CI.
We use a non-shebang invocation to do the forcing of Python 3.

Greg Price 98cef0ab48 py3: Augment all mentions of system Python packages to include Python 3.
In some of these contexts, we may still be *using* the Python 2
version, but at least this should eliminate running into
`ImportError`s one by one in scripts that run outside a virtualenv,
as we update their shebangs to refer to Python 3.

Several Python libraries we use don't come in Python 3 versions on
trusty: gevent, boto, twisted, django, django-tagging, whisper.
The latter two don't come in Python 3 versions even on xenial.
So some work required before we can actually switch the code that
relies on those libraries to run as Python 3 -- probably the best
solution will be to backport them all in our apt repo.  (All but
`whisper` are packaged in zesty; `whisper` upstream just grew Python 3
support this year.)

Steve Howell 2f775c3e0b node tests: Extract zrequire helper.
We are phasing out the following in tests:

    add_dependencies - this is just kind of a clunky UI
    require - normal JS requires cause test leaks

In order to plug require leaks, we are effectively doing what
we always have done inside of add_dependencies, which is to
keep track of which modules we have done `require` on, and
these get cleared between tests.

Now we just use `zrequire` every time we want to pull in real
code to our global namespace.

Greg Price d3a69da829 py3: Fix or remove (almost) all references to Python 2 venv in docs.
I think soon we'll put the Python 3 venv at `/srv/zulip-venv` and
make `/srv/zulip-py3-venv` just an alias to that (then remove the
alias too), but for now the old name is helpful for spotting places
that need an update.

The `/srv/zulip-venv` name still appears in codepaths used by Travis
tests.

rht b0e4233d3f Dev environment setup: default to Python 3.
From the line in tools/provision it should trickle to the rest of the

to be generic.

Proof that the setup is python3 only: with this commit, within the
vagrant container env, /srv/zulip-venv is no longer present and
`./tools/run-dev.py` runs just fine.

Greg Price cc30226af0 deliver_email: When disabled, sleep forever rather than exit.
This makes supervisor see the service as cheerfully running

Because the crash/restart loop means repeatedly spending a
couple of seconds loading Django and the app, separated by
brief periods while supervisor notices the crash and acts
on it, it was actually consuming about 30-50% CPU on the
zulipchat.com staging server.

Jason Michalski 4f0110e081 Add unread_msgs to the initial state data.
We are adding a new list of unread message ids grouped by
conversation to the queue registration result. This will allow
clients to show accurate unread badges without needing to load an
unbound number of historic messages.

Jason started this commit, and then Steve Howell finished it.

We only identify conversations using stream_id/user_id info;
we may need a subsequent version that includes things like
stream names and user emails/names for API clients that don't
have data structures to map ids -> attributes.
2017-07-27 16:14:25 -07:00

Rishi Gupta aa845e7f60 models: Replace ScheduledJob with ScheduledEmail.
ScheduledJob was written for much more generality than it ended up being
used for. Currently it is used by send_future_email, and nothing
else. Tailoring the model to emails in particular will make it easier to do
things like selectively clear emails when people unsubscribe from particular
email types, or seamlessly handle using the same email on multiple realms.
2017-07-17 16:05:38 -07:00
Durga Akhil Mundroy 146dfa6f0b org-permissions: Add allow_edit_history organiztion setting.
This new setting controls whether or not users are allowed to see the
edit history in a Zulip organization.  It controls access through 2
key mechanisms:

* For long-ago edited messages, get_messages removes the edit history
  content from messages it sends to clients.

* For newly edited messages, clients are responsible for checking the
  setting and not saving the edit history data.  Since the webapp was
  the only client displaying it before this change, this just required
  some changes in message_events.js.

Significantly modified by tabbott to fix some logic bugs and add a
test.

  package.

Harshit Bansal 420327b558 provision: Install NPM packages in the beginning of provisioning process.
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.

Greg Price 8e82bf6532 docs: Write down some high-level thoughts on doing code reviews.
This started as a PSA in the form of a series of chat messages in

to make their value more durable.

Also rearrange this doc slightly so that it's not specific to
the server codebase, except in a few explicit spots.

The bit that's for authors should probably be somewhere else.
I think there isn't right now a great natural spot for it --
probably the top of docs/git-guide, some parts of docs/version-control,
and that paragraph here should all turn into a top-level "guide
to submitting code to Zulip" doc, which would link to the rest
of docs/git-guide and to some other resources.  Leaving that
for another day.

with a small grammar fix and removing another vestige of making the
distinction between Jinja2 and Django templates, and also rearranges
the logic slightly to reflect that backend and frontend templates
have separate sections.

Probably a bigger restructuring is in order to help the reader

Changed `wheelSpeed` in "static/js/scroll_bar.js" to 0.5, because when it
20, the scrollbar scrolls very fast.

Changed 'wheelSpeed' in "static/js/emoji_picker.js" from 25 to 0.68

This is a new file in /docs not yet included in the Read the Docs

on the Swagger UI integration and expand REST API doc coverage using it.

For more on Swagger UI and how Zulip uses it, see:

Tim Abbott d9b8da2483 docs: Fix emoji cache setup when not using provision.py.
There were 2 things wrong here:
(1) The new emoji cache directories weren't being created properly
(2) We weren't downloading the new emoji sprite sheets.

I think based on this experience, we should definitely invest in
moving more platforms to use provision.py.

Fixes #5160.
