We got asked about this from a potential user, and they seemed fairly
excited and confused by it. In particular, it wasn't obvious that
deactivating a user was the feature they were looking for.
With the new portico work we've done, the help documentation does
sorta depend on the database if you're logged in. So it's best to
just require it for these tests.
This should get test-documentation and test-help-documentation passing
again after we moved everything around in the last commit.
There are a lot more absolute links (generally in code comments) to
update, but they are lower-priority and can be done in a follow-up
pass.
This commit helps reduce clutter on the navigation sidebar.
Creates new directories and moves relevant files into them.
Modifies index.rst, symlinks, and image paths accordingly.
This commit also enables expandable/collapsible navigation items,
renames files in docs/development and docs/production,
modifies /tools/test-documentation so that it overrides a theme setting,
Also updates links to other docs, file paths in the codebase that point
to developer documents, and files that should be excluded from lint tests.
Note that this commit does not update direct links to
zulip.readthedocs.io in the codebase; those will be resolved in an
upcoming follow-up commit (it'll be easier to verify all the links
once this is merged and ReadTheDocs is updated).
Fixes#5265.
While fixing an issue related to email gateway messages not getting
rendered properly, I unknowingly introduced a bug in the markdown
engine updation code. This commit fixes it. The issue was that for
a realm having email gateway setup, updation of realm filters would
lead to the updation of only one of the markdown engines not both.
The 'simple' realm was super broken and confusing for new users. We
should replace this with having an easy way to make a new realm in
development, done properly.
Fixes#6116.
In remove_members_from_group_backend, we are passing user group to
remove_members_from_user_group. In remove_members_from_user_group,
expect user_group_id.
The script already won't work without them; so if the user gets the
invocation wrong, give a halfway-reasonable error rather than just
crash into the ground.
This allows the installer to continue using this script for the
`standalone` method, while the no-argument form now uses the same
`webroot` method as the renewal cron job, suitable for running
by hand to adopt Certbot after initial install.
Certbot replaces the cert files under /etc/letsencrypt/live/,
which our nginx config refers to symlinks to; but it doesn't
tell nginx there's been an update, so nginx keeps serving the
old cert.
This is fine as long as nginx is restarted, or just told to
reload its config, at some point before the cert actually
expires about 30 days later. Which is probably the common
case, but of course we should make it just work. So, if we
actually renew a cert, tell nginx to reload its config now.
This causes the cron job to run only when a Zulip-managed certbot
install is actually set up.
Inside `install`, zulip.conf doesn't yet exist when we run
setup-certbot, so we write the setting later. But we also give
setup-certbot the ability to write the setting itself, so that we
can recommend it in instructions for adopting certbot in an
existing Zulip installation.
This helps make this script suitable to run on existing installations,
by mitigating any worry about clobbering existing certs with links to
the new ones, in case the admin changes their mind or was using the
certs for something else too.
If we were making an old-fashioned webroot where hand-written static
HTML files went, somewhere under `/srv` would be most appropriate.
Here, this webroot is really more of an implementation detail of the
certbot set up by the Zulip installer/packaging, containing transient
state. So someplace under `/var` is appropriate, and specifically
under `/var/lib/zulip` in order to properly namespace it.
For background on `/var/www` and friends, see the top couple of answers

This fixes a regression in ae5ba7f4fd,
where Zulip would 500 if the newly added system bots didn't exist on
the server.
This also fixes a moderate size performance problem where we'd fetch 5
users from memcached or the database in a loop.
