The comments explain in some detail, but basically we were displaying
the types for booleans incorrectly, and the types for strings in a
somewhat confusing fashion. Fix this with comments explaining the logic.
Using JSON dumping also results in our showing strings inside
quotation marks in our examples, which seems net helpful.
Thanks to ArunSankarKs for finding where we needed to change the
codebase.
Fixes#18021.
This reverts commit 9c6d8d9d81 (#16916).
This feature has known bugs, and also wants some design changes to
make it customizable like linkifiers, so we’re retargeting this to
post-4.x.

Backend logic for handling user mention was cluttered
because it was handled at two stages first in
get_possible_mentions_info while fetching mention data
based on the messsage and then later in UserMentionPattern
which handles processing of text for mention.
Ideally UserMentionPattern should depend on
get_possible_mentions_info only for data but there was a
shared logic between these two that made it hard to debug
any possible bugs.
Updates in this commit make both of these functions
coherent in terms of logic and also add appropiate
comments to improve readability of these functions.
There was also a hidden bug that if a user A is
mentioned in with @**name|id** then @**invalid|id**
again mentioned A because of the way we handled mentions
earlier. It is solved as a result of this refactor and
appropiate test has been added for this.
This has been tested manually as well as by adding new
test to address missing case.
Extend our markdown system to support mentioning of users
by id also. Following these changes, it would be possible
to mention users with @**|user_id** and silently mention
using @_**|user_id**.
Main intention for extending the mention syntax is to make
it convenient for bots to mention a users using their ids. It
is to be noted that previous syntax are also supported.
Documentation tweaked by tabbott for better readability.
The changes were tested manually in development server, and also
by adding some new backend and frontend tests.
Fixes: #17487.
We add support to shorten links and test their shortening in
well-organized, clean manner that makes it trivial to extend the
GitHub approach for GitLab and perhaps other services.
We only shorten basic types of GitHub links (issue, PR, commit) that
fit a set of simple common patterns; the default behaviour of Autolink
is kept for everything else.
Logic added in frontend and backend Markdown Processor is identical.
This makes easy to extend the logic for other services like GitLab.
Fixes#11895.
Modifies `StreamPattern` and `StreamTopicPattern` to inherit
from InlineProcessor instead of Pattern. This change is done
because Pattern stopped checking for matching patterns as soon
as it found a match which was not a valid stream. Due to this
all the subsequent mention failed, even if they were valid.
This bug was only present in backend renderring due to
markdown.inlinepatterns.Pattern.
Due to above changes verbose_compile is no longer used for
precompiling STREAM_LINK_REGEX, STREAM_TOPIC_LINK_REGEX as
adds ^(.*?) and (.*?)$ which cause extra overhead of matching
pattern which is not required. With new InlineProcessor these
extra patterns at beggining and end are not required.
So, StreamPattern and StreamTopicPattern now define their own
__init__ method for precompiling the regex.
Fixes#17535.

Modifies `UserGroupMentionPattern` to inherit from InlineProcessor
instead of Pattern. This change is done because Pattern
stopped checking for matching patterns as soon as it found

valid. This bug was only present in backend renderring due to

Currently, the ID and Type fields didn't have a description,
and weren't being displayed. Added a schema component to add
descriptions, and display on the api page. Fixes part of #15967.
Added assertion to check that if a deprecated flag is in a field's
schema, then it should have deprecated mentioned in description
as well, and moved these checks to a separate function.
Fixes part of #15967.
The current logic doesn't display data types when the additionalProperties
variables are not object, but are array of strings, etc. Changed the if
condition to allow rendering in such cases.
Previously, the data type of responses wasn't displayed in the API
Documentation, even though that OpenAPI data is carefully validated
against the implementation. Here we add a recursive function to
render the data types visibly in API Documentation.
Fixes part of #15967.
Commit 434094e599 (#11321) changed this
from an Extension to a subclass of Markdown, so it no longer has any
reason to use a config dict structured like that of an Extension.

The changes are as follows:
• Fix one day offset in all western zones.
• Correct CST from -64800 to -21600 and CDT from -68400 to -18000.
• Disambiguate PST in favor of -28000 over +28000.
• Add GMT, UTC, WET, previously excluded for being at offset 0.
• Add ACDT, AEDT, AKST, MET, MSK, NST, NZDT, PKT, which the previous
code did not find.
• Remove numbered abbreviations -12, …, +14, which are unnecessary.
• Remove MSD and PKST, which are no longer used.
Hardcode the dict and verify it with a test, so that future
discrepancies won’t go silently unnoticed.

Previously, the data type of parameters wasn't displayed in the API
Documentation, even though that OpenAPI data is carefully validated
against the implementation. Here we add a recursive function to

This only covers the request parameters; we'll want to do something
similar for response parameters in a follow-up PR.

This reverts commit 564b199fe6, which
was part of #16308.
Escaping is either required or incorrect; it is never “defensive”.
This escaping is incorrect. lxml already escapes attributes during
serialization (any other behavior would be a serious bug), and
additional escaping just results in double escaping.

Initally, when writing two or more quotes, having
a blank line in between them, merges those quotes.
This created confusion especially in "quote and reply".
This commit fixes such issues. Now two or more quotes
having a blank line in between them, will not get merged.
This change is correct both for usability and for improving our
compatibility with CommonMark.
Fixes#14379.

Initially markdown titles were overridden by Youtube and Vimeo preview titles.
But now it will check if any markdown title is present to replace Youtube or
Vimeo preview titles, if preview of linked websites is enabled.

If multiple filters match the same string, we run into an infinite
loop of converting string into urls. To fix it, we mark the matched
string as atomic after first conversion.
