The main limitation of this version is that it's controlled entirely
from settings, with nothing in the database and no web UI or even
management command to control it. That makes it a bit more of a
burden for the server admins than it'd ideally be, but that's fine
for now.
Relatedly, the web flow for realm creation still requires choosing a
subdomain even if the realm is destined to live at an alias domain.
Specific to the dev environment, there is an annoying quirk: the
special dev login flow doesn't work on a REALM_HOSTS realm. Also,
in this version the `add_new_realm` and `add_new_user` management
commands, which are intended for use in development environments only,
don't support this feature.
In manual testing, I've confirmed that a REALM_HOSTS realm works for
signup and login, with email/password, Google SSO, or GitHub SSO.
Most of that was in dev; I used zulipstaging.com to also test
* logging in with email and password;
* logging in with Google SSO... far enough to correctly determine
that my email address is associated with some other realm.
The original PR to allow generic bots to be mentioned had
some merge issues that we detected about a week after the
fact. This commit restores the logic from the original PR.
The reason we didn't detect this bug earlier is that the
merge issues didn't break any existing behavior. Instead,
they made it so that only UserMessage rows got written for
bots, but no events were being set. The part of the commit
that got lost is restored here, so now events get sent as
well.
Thanks to @derAnfaenger for reporting this and being patient
as we tracked it down.
Fixes#7140
This adds the data model and bugdown support for the new UserGroup
mention feature.
Before it'll be fully operational, we'll still need:
* A backend API for making these.
* A UI for interacting with that API.
* Typeahead on the frontend.
* CSS to make them look pretty and see who's in them.
tsearch_extras returns search offsets in bytes but our highlight
function treated them as character offsets. Added a check to subtract
extra bytes if the tsearch search backend is being used.
Fixes#4084.
Fixes#7021.
This commit allows for the /api-new/ page to rendered similarly to our
/help pages. It's based on the old content for /api, but we're not
replacing the old content yet, to give a bit of time to restructure
things reasonably.
Tweaked by eeshangarg and tabbott.
Because this is for tests, a heuristic like this that's right in most
situations is actually fine; we can override it in the few cases where
a test might set up a situation where it fails.
So just make it clear for the next reader that that's what's going on,
and also adjust the helper's interface slightly so that its callers
do have that flexibility.
The "subdomain" label is redundant, to the extent it's even
accurate -- this is really just the URL we want to display,
which may or may not involve a subdomain. Similarly "external".
The former `external_api_path_subdomain` was never a path -- it's a
host, followed by a path, which together form a scheme-relative URL.
I'm not quite convinced that value is actually the right thing in
2 of the 3 places we use it, but fixing that can start by giving an
accurate name to the thing we have.
This was part of the logic to handle EXTERNAL_API_PATH varying.
But also it was already no longer used -- it was only ever passed
into template contexts, as `external_api_uri`, and it'd been
overtaken there by `external_api_uri_subdomain`.
So, update our dev docs to reflect that, and eliminate the variable.
This setting isn't documented at all, and I believe nobody has used it
since the end of api.zulip.com in 2016. So we get to complete the
cleanup of this logic.
We extract get_bulk_stream_subscriber_info() from this
function to remove some of the complexity. Also, in that
new function we avoid a hop to the database by querying
on stream ids instead of recipient ids. The query that
gets changed here does require a join to the recipient
table (to get the stream id), so it's a little bit of a
tradeoff.
There's an implicit assumption in bulk_remove_subscriptions
that all users belong to the same realm. We use the realm
for things like comparing occupied streams before and
after our main operation of deactivating streams.
Before this change, we just used the user_profile variable
that leaked from some prior loop to look up the realm, which
was super brittle.
Now we're a bit more explicit.
We were using Google's diff-match-patch library to diff HTML. The
problem with that approach is that it is a text differ, not an HTML
differ and so it ends up messing up the HTML tags. `lxml` is a safer
option.
Fixes: #7219.
