If an Android token has been used to connect a given device with
multiple Zulip servers, and then is expired, we would 500 in trying to
remove the Zulip-side registration for it, because the code assumed
there was only one such registration. If a token is no longer valid,
it's invalid for all servers, so the correct fix is to just remove them all.
When the answer is False, this will allow the mobile app to show a
warning that push notifications will not work and the server admin
should set them up.
Based partly on Kunal's PR #7810. Provides the necessary backend API
for zulip/zulip-mobile#1507.
I got distracted, came back later to a successful test run in my
terminal, and thought I remembered finishing the change and just
kicking off a final test run to check.
In fact, there was an `assert False` right in the normal case for
production, and I just hadn't finished a test for that path. (m.-)
Definitely the most grateful I've been for our coverage checks,
which highlighted this for me.
Remove the `assert False`, and also finish writing the test it was
there to help me write. Those lines are covered now.
Previously, these push notification events were being generated, but
then ignored in handle_push_notification because there was no
user_message object.
This removes the utterly unnecessary `triggers` dict (which always was
a dict with exactly one value True) in favor of a single field,
'trigger'.
Inspired by Kunal Gupta's work in #6659.
This function truncates the textual content at correct length.
(It will be updated later to handle corner cases of unicode
combining characters and tags when we start supporting them.)
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.
And it works!
A couple of things still to do:
* When a device token is no longer active, we'll get HTTP status 410.
We should then remove the token from the database so we don't keep
trying to push to it. This is fairly urgent.
* The library we're using has a nice asynchronous API, but this
version doesn't use it. This is OK now, but async will be
essential at scale.
This code empirically doesn't work. It's not entirely clear why, even
having done quite a bit of debugging; partly because the code is quite
convoluted, and because it shows the symptoms of people making changes
over time without really understanding how it was supposed to work.
Moreover, this code targets an old version of the APNs provider API.
Apple deprecated that in 2015, in favor of a shiny new one which uses
HTTP/2 to meet the same needs for concurrency and scale that the old
one had to do a bunch of ad-hoc protocol design for.
So, rip this code out. We'll build a pathway to the new API from
scratch; it's not that complicated.
We'd been getting errors from APNs that appeared to say that the
device tokens we were trying to send to were invalid. It turned out
that the device tokens didn't match the "topic" (i.e. app ID) we were
sending, which was because the topic was wrong, which was because we
were using the wrong SSL cert. But for a while we thought it might be
that we were somehow messing up the device tokens we put into the
database. This logging helped us work out that wasn't the issue, and
would have helped our debugging sooner.
