This commit serves as the first step in supporting "public export" as a
webapp feature. The refactoring was done as a means to allow calling
the export logic from elsewhere in the codebase.
This is important because upcoming features will include slightly more
complex logic in post_process_state that we'd ideally like to be
included in what this suite tests.
This requires a few related changes:
* A small change to post_process_state to sort the realm_users objects
by user_id to ensure those data structures are stable.
* Improvements to the logic for checking if the initial state has
changed to use match_states for better output.
Extend the list of users that have to be notified when a message is
changed, so that in addition to users who have a UserMessage row, any
users who subscribed later to a stream with history public to
subscribers will also get the update.
Fixes: #8750.
This adds experimental support in /register for sending key
statistical data on the last 1000 private messages that the user is a
participant in. Because it's experimental, we require developers to
request it explicitly in production (we don't use these data yet in
the webapp, and it likely carries some perf cost).
We expect this to be extremely helpful in initializing the mobile app
user experience for showing recent private message conversations.
See the code comments, but this has been heavily optimized to be very
efficient and do all the filtering work at the database layer so that
we minimize network transit with the database.
Fixes#11944.
This is in response to a support ticket where the user had a closed left
sidebar, had added an organization, and then couldn't figure out how to
switch organizations. They had googled and found "The desktop app makes it
easy to switch between different organizations" in our help docs, which was
not sufficiently helpful.
Previously, we could 500 if an organization administrator scanned
possible PreregistrationUser IDs looking for a valid invitation they
can interact with.
They couldn't do anything, so no security issue, but this fixes that
case to just be a 400 error as it should be.
With the previous commit, fixes#1836.
As specified in the issue above, we make
get_email_gateway_message_string_from_address raise an exception if
it doesn't recognise the email gateway address pattern. Then, we make
appropriate adjustments in the codepaths which call this function.
These functions don't really belong in actions.py, so we move them out,
into email_mirror_helpers.py. They can't go directly into
email_mirror.py or we'd get circular imports resulting in ImportError.
The hope is that by having a shorter list of initial streams, it'll
avoid some potential confusion confusion about the value of topics.
At the very least, having 5 streams each with 1 topic was not a good
way to introduce Zulip.
This commit minimizes changes to the message content in
`send_initial_realm_messages` to keep the diff readable. Future commits will
reshape the content.
There were several problems with the old format:
* The sender was not necessarily the sender; it was the person who did
the deletion (which could be an organization administrator)
* It didn't include the ID of the sender, just the email address.
* It didn't include the recipient ID, instead having a semi-malformed
recipient_type_id under the weird name recipient_user_ids.
Since nothing was relying on the old behavior, we can just fix the
event structure.
Closes#2420
We add rate limiting (max X emails withing Y seconds per realm) to the
email mirror. By creating RateLimitedRealmMirror class, inheriting from
RateLimitedObject, and rate_limit_mirror_by_realm function, following a
mechanism used by rate_limit_user, we're able to have this
implementation mostly rely on the already existing, and proven over
time, rate_limiter.py code. The rules are configurable in settings.py in
RATE_LIMITING_MIRROR_REALM_RULES, analogically to RATE_LIMITING_RULES.
Rate limit verification happens in the MirrorWorker in
queue_processors.py. We don't rate limit missed message emails, as due
to using one time addresses, they're not a spam threat.
test_mirror_worker is adapted to the altered MirrorWorker code and a new
test - test_mirror_worker_rate_limiting is added in test_queue_worker.py
to provide coverage for these changes.
Fixes#9840.
Old addresses caused bugs in some cases with non-latin characters in
stream names (see issue number above). We switch to using django's
slugify helper function to convert stream names to full ascii, while
also getting rid of problematic non-alphanumeric characters, in a
reasonable way. See Django's documentation for slugify to see more about
how this function works.
Tests extended by tabbott to cover cases where we do end up with ascii.
To prepare for changing how the stream name gets encoded into mirror
email addresses while making sure old addresses keep working, we ignore
the stream_name part when receiving emails into the mirror and we only
look at the email_token to identify into which stream to mirror the
email.
Previously, these cache keys looked like:
:1:9c26164d3a393e316e0f8210efe270e08710d45astream_by_realm_and_name:...
Now, they look like this:
:1:9c26164d3a393e316e0f8210efe270e08710d45a:stream_by_realm_and_name:...
See the comment, but this is a significant performance optimization
for all of our pages using common_context, because this code path is
called more than a dozen times (recursively) by common_context.
Follow up on 92dc363. This modifies the ScheduledEmail model
and send_future_email to properly support multiple recipients.
Tweaked by tabbott to add some useful explanatory comments and fix
issues with the migration.
When soft deactivation is run for in "auto" mode (no emails are
specified and all users inactive for specified number of days are
deactivated), catch-up is also run in the "auto" mode if
AUTO_CATCH_UP_SOFT_DEACTIVATED_USERS is True.
Automatically catching up soft-deactivated users periodically would
ensure a good user experience for returning users, but on some servers
we may want to turn off this option to save on some disk space.
Fixes#8858, at least for the default configuration, by eliminating
the situation where there are a very large number of messages to recover.
A user who has been soft deactivated for a long time might have 10Ks of message
history that was "soft deactivated". It might take a minute or more to add
UserMessage rows for all of these messages, causing timeouts. So, we paginate
the creation of these UserMessage rows.
This field is primarily intended to support avoiding displaying the
"more topics" feature in new organizations and streams, where we might
know that all messages in the stream are already available in the
browser.
Based on original work by Roman Godov, and significantly modified by
tabbott.
The second migration involved here could be expensive on Zulip Cloud,
but is unlikely to be an issue on other servers.
Apparently, our new validator for stream color having a valid format
incorrectly handled colors that had duplicate characters in them.
(This is caused in part by the spectrum.js logic automatically
converting #ffff00 to #ff0, which our validator rejected). Given that
we had old stream colors in the #ff0 format in our database anyway for
legacy, there's no benefit to banning these colors.
In the future, we could imagine standardizing the format, but doing so
will require also changing the frontend to submit colors only in the
6-character format.
