Although our POST /messages handler accepts the ‘to’ parameter with or
without JSON encoding, there are two problems with passing it as an
unencoded string.
Firstly, you’d fail to send a message to a stream named ‘true’ or
‘false’ or ‘null’ or ‘2022’, as the JSON interpretation is prioritized
over the plain string interpretation.
Secondly, and more importantly for our tests, it violates our OpenAPI
schema, which requires the parameter to be JSON-encoded. This is
because OpenAPI has no concept of a parameter that’s “optionally
JSON-encoded”, nor should it: such a parameter cannot be unambiguously
decoded for the reason above.
Our version of openapi-core doesn’t currently detect this schema
violation, but after the next upgrade it will.

Previously, one needed to specifying all the HTTP status
codes that we want to render along with the operation,
but the primary use case just needs the responses of
all the status codes, and not just one.
This commit modifies the Markdown extension to render
all the responses of all status codes of a specified
operation in a loop.
As a part of goal of moving towards a common template,
the hardcoded python tabs need to be removed to ensure
that endpoints which don't have python examples can be
covered by the common template as well.
This commit also modifies the markdown extension for python
examples to render empty string in case the examples don't
exist, which would allow it to be called whether the endpoint
has python examples or not.
This commit modifies the templates to
auto-generate general descriptions of
responses directly from the newly
added field of x-response-description
as a part of the goal of a common template.
This commit modifies the templates to
auto-generate general descriptions of
parameters directly from the newly

as a part of the goal of a common template.
The javascript tab in .md templates can be
generated along with the line that adds js
example.
Further, as a part of the effort of moving
towards a single template, the markdown extension
for javascrit examples is modified to return empty
string if javascript example doesn't exist for that
endpoint. This would make it possible to cover more
endpoints with a single template.
The js example tabs are now automatically generated
during generation of javascript code, and so need to
be removed. Also, the markdown function to render js
examples can be added in all templates, since it is
parses and returns an empty string if the examples
don't exist, and allows us to move towards a common
template.
The pages have been verified to be correct
by using diff between old and new pages' raw HTML.
The headings for return values were currently hardcoded
in cases where they occur, but they can be rendered directly
in the markdown extension if the return values exist.
Now, the descriptions and all subschemas
are directly returned just by
`generate_code_example`, and so, these individual
subschemas and descriptions can be removed from the
templates.
All API endpoints docs are exactly the same after the
change, except few where missing 400 responses got added
due to the modification
Commit 13c11ec5f3 (#16699) already fixed
the generated curl examples, but missed this, which is the only
hard-coded one.

This reverts commit 5275d49f05
(effectively), which created more problems than it solves. #8484 is
not a bug: a newline can be included literally with no escaping within
POSIX quotes. Meanwhile, $"" is a bashism, and not even the correct
bashism: it translates strings using the LC_MESSAGES catalog. If the
user wants to do something complicated, they can consult the
documentation for their shell.

The term `parameter` is a better word than `argument` for data passed
to an API endpoint; this is why OpenAPI uses in their terminology.
Replace `argument` with `parameter` in the API docs to improve their
readability.
Fixes#15435.
Currently response return values have to be written twice, once in
the docs and once in zulip.yaml. Create a markdown extension so
that the return values in api docs are rendered using content from
zulip.yaml
Firstly, change endpoint descriptions in zulip.yaml so that they
match their counterpart in the api docs. Then edit the api docs
so that they use api description markdown extension for displaying
endpoint description.
Openapi had descriptive response codes for endpoints with multiple
responses for same response code. But this does not fall in line
with openapi specifications. So change descriptive response codes
like "400_auth" and "400_anauth" to "400_0" and "400_1" for all
such endpoints. Also make the necessary changes in openapi.py so
as to be able to read the schema in such cases and generate example
in such cases.
Since the Zulip API runs on both developement and production
servers, it is misleading to mention "dev servers" when discussing
zuliprc files.
Also, note that it is better to manually edit all of our JS
examples than to implement macro-like functionality that we use
for our Python examples. For our current purposes, it would be
too much work to build a full-blown testing framework for our
JS code examples just so that we can fix a minor wording issue.
Fixes#10672.
