Using puppet modules from the puppet forge judiciously will allow us
to simplify the configuration somewhat; this specifically pulls in the
stdlib module, which we were already using parts of.
The old name `push_notify_user_ids` was misleading, because
it does not contain user ids which should be notified for
the current message, but rather user ids who have the online
push notifications setting enabled.
When the Tornado server is restarted during an upgrade, if
server has old events with the `push_notify_user_ids` fields,
the server will throw error after this rename. Hence, we need
to explicitly handle such cases while processing the event.
Updated the install documentation to include the explanation of the
two new install options `--postgresql-database-name` and
`--postgresql-database-user`.
This makes it parallel with deliver_scheduled_messages, and clarifies
that it is not used for simply sending outgoing emails (e.g. the
`email_senders` queue).
This also renames the supervisor job to match.
Make it easier to locate docs for how to build an integration by adding

* Documents that Zulip Cloud runs master and how that works.
* Documents policies on how long client apps are expected to support

* Removes the 3-years-stale roadmap article.
* Provides a central place to talk about different versions in Zulip.
* Provides a better place to link to from our "you need to upgrade" nag.

This allows access to be more configurable than just setting one

This hits the unauthenticated Github API to get the list of tags,
which is rate-limited to 60 requests per hour. This means that the
tool can only be run 60 times per hour before it starts to exit with

The show password feature is a functionality to
toggle the visibility of the password fields in forms
so that one can check if they have entered the correct
password or not. We implement this using an eye icon
toggling which converts input field type from password
to text and vice-versa.
Fixes part of #17301.
Using `supervisorctl stop all` to stop the server is not terribly
discoverable, and may stop services which are not part of Zulip
proper.
Add an explicit tool which only stops the relevant services. It also
more carefully controls the order in which services are stopped to
minimize lost requests, and maximally quiesce the server.
Locations which may be stopping _older_ versions of Zulip (without
this script) are left with using `supervisorctl stop all`.
Fixes#14959.
I have made `tools/setup/optimize-svg` do the SVG optimization
automatically rather than just telling you the command to run if they
need optimizing. This included adding a `--check` parameter to use in
CI to only check as we previously did rather than actually running the
optimization.
I have also made `tools/setup/optimize-svg` execute
`tools/setup/generate_integration_bots_avatars.py` once it has run the
optimization to ensure it is always ran.
This makes it one less command to run when creating an integration,
but also means that we catch instances where a PNG has just been
copied into the `static/images/integrations/bot_avatars` folder as the
only instance where this won't be run is if `optimize-svg` has not
been run which would be caught in CI.

This change attempts to highlight WSL 2 as the default installation

I have updated the path for the svgo module in the integrations

PATH, so have updated to use `yarn run svgo` instead.
This was used by the old native Zulip Android app
(zulip/zulip-android). That app has been undeveloped for enough years
that we believe it no longer functions; as a result, there's no reason
to keep a prototype API endpoint for it (that we believe never worked).
This makes it much more clear that this feature does JSON encoding,
which previously was only indicated in the documentation.

The only downside of this is that it makes it harder to control the
order of these tests; which isn't that important. And the structure
of naming each with its test order fundamentally requires renaming
files when adding/deleting tests, so if we want to control the default
test order, we'd be better off doing that by just hardcoding a list in
the test runner code.
This likely still needs work on updating the list of highlights, as
well as an editing pass, but we shouldn't need to read the whole
`git log --stat` again.
I have updated the `Documenting an Integration` documentation to be more

This mainly extracts a new module called
browser_history. It has much fewer dependencies
than hashchange.js, so any modules that just
need the smaller API from browser_history now
have fewer transitive dependencies.
Here are some details:
* Move is_overlay_hash to hash_util.
* Rename hashchange.update_browser_history to
brower_history.update
* Move go_to_location verbatim.
* Remove unused argument for exit_overlay.
* Introduce helper functions:
* old_hash()
* set_hash_before_overlay()
* save_old_hash()
We now have 100% line coverage on the extracted
code.
This adds an option for restricting a ldap user

This is done by configuring an attribute mapping of "org_membership"

Timestamps are logged automatically by GitHub Actions and can be

GitHub Actions supports doing more than just CI,

Boto3 does not allow setting the endpoint url from

These are respected by `urllib`, and thus also `requests`. We set

There is only one PostgreSQL database; the "appdb" is irrelevant.

The "voyager" name is non-intuitive and not significant.
`zulip::voyager` and `zulip::dockervoyager` stubs are kept for

This moves the puppet configuration closer to the "roles and profiles

In this commit I attempt to make the docs for
writing `test_events` a little more oriented
toward telling the developer that they need to

explaining the innards.
So I now start with a concrete example.
Then much of the copy related to `verify_action`
is the same as before this commit, but I rework
it a bit to be a bit more step-by-step, and I refer
back to the concrete example.
Finally, I explain the schema checking step, which
is all new copy, although for that, I mostly
instruct the developer to read event_schema.py
itself.

The OS upgrade paths which go through 2.1 do not call
`upgrade-zulip-stage-2` with `--audit-fts-indexes` because that flag
was added in 3.0.
Add an explicit step to do this audit after the 3.0 upgrade. Stating
it as another command to run, rather than attempting to tell them
to add it to the `upgrade-zulip` call that we're linking to seems
easiest, since that does not dictate if they should upgrade to a
release or from the tip of git.
We do not include a step describing this for the Trusty -> Xenial
upgrade, because the last step already chains into Xenial -> Bionic,
which itself describes auditing the indexes.
Fixes#15877.
Only Zulip 3.0 and above support the `--audit-fts-indexes` option to
`upgrade-zulip-stage-2`; saying "same as Bionic to Focal" on other
other steps, which are for Zulip 2.1 or 2.0, will result in errors.
Provide the full text of the updated `upgrade-zulip-stage-2` call in
step 5 for all non-3.0 upgrades. For Trusty to Xenial and Stretch to
Buster, we do not say "Same as Xenial to Bionic" , because it is
likely that readers do not notice that step does not read "Same as
Bionic to Focal."

The apple developer webapp consistently refers this App ID. So,
this clears any confusion that can occur.

wal-g was used in `puppet/zulip` by env-wal-g, but only installed in
`puppet/zulip_ops`.
Merge all of the dependencies of doing backups using wal-g (wal-g
installation, the pg_backup_and_purge job, the nagios plugin that
verifies it happens) into a common base class in `puppet/zulip`, since
it is generally useful.
Running `pg-upgradecluster` runs the `CREATE TEXT SEARCH DICTIONARY`
and `CREATE TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION` from
`zerver/migrations/0001_initial.py` on the new PostgreSQL cluster;
this requires that the stopwords file and dictionary exist _prior_
to `pg_upgradecluster` being run.
This causes a minor dependency conflict -- we do not wish to duplicate
the functionality from `zulip::postgres_appdb_base` which configures
those files, but installing all of `zulip::postgres_appdb_tuned` will
attempt to restart PostgreSQL -- which has not configured the cluster
for the new version yet.
In order to split out configuration of the prerequisites for the
application database, and the steps required to run it, we need to be
able to apply only part of the puppet configuration. Use the
newly-added `--config` argument to provide a more limited `zulip.conf`
which only applies `zulip::postgres_appdb_base` to the new version of
Postgres, creating the required tsearch data files.
This also preserves the property that a failure at any point prior to
the `pg_upgradecluster` is easily recoverable, by re-running
`zulip-puppet-apply`.
Log RealmAuditLog in do_set_realm_property and do_remove_realm_domain.
Tests for the changes are written in test_events because it will save

As alluded to in the previous commit, only 3.0 can use the new tooling
-- indeed, it requires it, as the zulip.conf entry must be changed.
Clarify that in the upgrade steps for earlier distributions.

step. Only the Bionic -> Focal upgrade step need be updated, because
none of the other upgrade steps can be run starting from a Zulip 3.0

49a7a66004 and immediately previous commits began installing
PostgreSQL 12 from their apt repository. On machines which already
have the distribution-provided version of PostgreSQL installed,
however, this leads to failure to apply puppet when restarting
PostgreSQL 12, as both attempt to claim the same port.
During installation, if we will be installing PostgreSQL, look for
other versions than what we will install, and abort if they are
found. This is safer than attempting to automatically uninstall or
reconfigure existing databases.
The previous commit removed the only behavior difference between the
two flags; both of them skip user/database creation, and the tables
therein.
Of the two options `--no-init-db` is more explicit as to what it does,
as opposed to just one facet of when it might be used; remove
`--remote-postgres`.
In particular the Services ID and Bundle ID each have one of Apple's
random-looking 10-character identifiers, in addition to the Java-style
names the admin chooses. Best to be clear about what names are
supposed to be the chosen names and which are supposed to be the
random-looking assigned names.
(I don't know of any docs elsewhere making this clear -- but I guessed
it'd be this way, and empirically it works.)
Also mention you need to enable the backend. :-)
I believe the Bundle ID (aka App ID) and Services ID have meaning only
relative to a specific Team ID. In particular, in some places in the
developer.apple.com UI, they're displayed in a fully-qualified form
like "ABCDE12345.com.example.app", where "com.example.app" is the
App ID or Services ID and ABCDE12345 is the Team ID.

This adds a convenient way to review the upgrade notes for all Zulip
releases that one is upgrading across.
I thought about moving all the upgrade notes to a common section, but
in some cases the language is clearly explaining changes in the
release that are not duplicated elsewhere, and I think it reads better
having them inline alongisde related changes.
We only use this in a few places, but they're really important places
for understanding the types in the codebase, and so it's worth having
a bit of expository documentation explaining how we use it.
(And I expect we'll add more with time).

This is a prep commit for replacement of chevron

This commit will add ellipsis-v icon in svg format downloaded
from font-awesome 5. This has to be done because font-awesome 4.7
(the version we are using) does not have this icon with
circular dots.
And font-awesome 5 as a whole doesn't make sense to upgrade to because
it's intentionally semi-crippled as part of their business plan.

Previously, it was unnecessarily difficult to parse the sentence to
determine that "HTTP response" and "internal state of the server
following the request" are the coherent ideas. Even if length wasn't
an issue, e.g. "... and checking both the A and B are correct", the
sentence still feels a bit fragile without a "that".
Since the second phrase is indeed relatively long, and "internal state
of the server" is a reasonable guess for the second coherent idea, the
"the" helps to reset the reader's expectation about where the next
coherent idea starts, and ends.
Lastly, having "both" in front of the two phrases encourages an
assumption that they're shorter (which is especially problematic for
the second phrase), while having it at the end of the sentence helps
to anchor the end of the second phrase; this is especially true since
the absence of "both" before that point encourages an assumption that
you haven't finished reading yet, given that two things have been
mentioned.

We'll try to clean that up a bit soon.
We no longer need to maintain duplicate code
related to where we set up the emoji
cache directory.
And we no longer need two extra steps for
people doing advanced (i.e. manual) setup.
There was no clear benefit to having provision
build the cache directory for `build_emoji`,
when it was easy to make `build_emoji` more
self-sufficient. The `build_emoji` tool
was already importing the library that has
`run_as_root`, and it was already responsible
for 99% of the create-directory kind of tasks.
(We always call `build_emoji` unconditionally from
`provision`, so there's no rationale in terms
of avoiding startup time or something.)
ASIDE:
Its not completely clear to me why we need
to put this directory in "/srv", instead of
somewhere more local (like we already do for
Travis), but maybe it's just to be like
its siblings in "/srv":
node_modules
yarn.lock
zulip-emoji-cache
zulip-npm-cache
zulip-py3-venv
zulip-thumbor-venv
zulip-venv-cache
zulip-yarn
I guess the caches that we keep in var are
dev-only, although I think some of what's under
`zulip-emoji-cache` is also dev-only in nature?
./var/webpack-cache
./var/mypy-cache
In `docs/subsystems/emoji.md` we say this:
```
The `build_emoji` tool generates the set of files under
`static/generated/emoji` (or really, it generates the
`/srv/zulip-emoji-cache/<sha1>/emoji` tree, and
`static/generated/emoji` is a symlink to that tree;we do this in
order to cache old versions to make provisioning and production
deployments super fast in the common case that we haven't changed the
emoji tooling). [...]
```
I don't really understand that rationale for the development
case, since `static/generated` is as much ignored by `git` as
'/srv' is, without the complications of needing `sudo` to create it.
And in production, I'm not sure how much time we're really saving,
as it takes me about 1.4s to fully rebuild the cache in dev, not to
mention we're taking on upgrade risk by sharing files between versions.
Also make sure our documentation for upgrading is reasonable for
Stretch => Buster.
Our reasoning for deprecating support for these releases is as follows:
* Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial reached desktop EOL last year; and will reach
EOL on the server in about a year.
* Debian Stretch will each EOL in 2020 (the precise date is unclear in
Debian's documentation, but based on past precedent it's in the next
few months, perhaps July 2020).
https://wiki.debian.org/DebianReleases#Production_Releases
* Both Ubuntu 16.04 and Debian Stretch use Python 3.5 as the system
Python, which will reach EOL in September 2020 (and we're already
seeing various third-party dependencies that we use drop support for
them).
* While there is LTS support for these older releases, it's not clear it's
going to be worth the added engineering effort for us to maintain EOL
releases of the base OSes that we support.
* We (now) have clear upgrade instructions for moving to Debian Buster
and Ubuntu 18.04.

This returns us to a consistent logging format regardless of whether
the request is authenticated.
We also update some log examples in docs to be consistent with the new
style.
Those docs were outdated and no longer represantative of how things
work. upgrade-python-dependencies and unupgradable.json are no longer a
thing, so the entire paragraph about them should be removed.
Then the requirements/README.md file is refreshed a bit to be more
accurate.
For historical reasons we were creating Recipient
objects at some point in the typing-notifications
codepath. Now we just work with UserProfiles.
This removes some queries, as indicated by
the change to `len(queries)` in a couple of the
tests.
The one subtle thing that changes here is huddles.
If user 10 sends a typing notification that they
are talking to users 20 and 30, there might not
actually be a huddle for users 10/20/30, but
we were actually creating huddles on the fly!
There is no need to create huddles just for
typing notifications, since we don't even
share huddle ids with our clients. The clients
just infer the huddles.
Some of the code that gets killed off here as
somewhat "collateral damage" is some
defensive code related to formerly supporting streams
in typing indicators. The support for streams
was killed off almost as soon as we released
the feature, and the codepath is pretty clearly
user-centric at this point.
The only clients that should use the typing
indicators endpoint are our internal clients,
and they should send a JSON-formatted list
of user_ids.
Unfortunately, we still have some older versions
of mobile that still send emails.
In this commit we fix non-user-facing things
like docs and tests to promote the user_ids
interface that has existed since about version
2.0 of the server.
One annoyance is that we documented the
typing endpoint with emails, instead of the
more modern user_ids, which may have delayed
mobile converting to user_ids (and which
certainly caused confusion). It's trivial
to update the docs, but we need to short
circuit one assertion in the openapi tests.
We also clean up the test structure for the
typing tests:
TypingHappyPathTest.test_start_to_another_user
TypingHappyPathTest.test_start_to_multiple_recipients
TypingHappyPathTest.test_start_to_self
TypingHappyPathTest.test_start_to_single_recipient
TypingHappyPathTest.test_stop_to_another_user
TypingHappyPathTest.test_stop_to_self
TypingValidateOperatorTest.test_invalid_parameter
TypingValidateOperatorTest.test_missing_parameter
TypingValidateUsersTest.test_argument_to_is_not_valid_json
TypingValidateUsersTest.test_bogus_user_id
TypingValidateUsersTest.test_empty_array

TypingValidationHelpersTest.test_recipient_for_user_ids

Separate using.html into Server/Web/Mobile sections so that readers
will find what they're looking for more quickly. Server is at the top
because it contains information relevant to web and mobile developers,
e.g., that the `run-dev.py` console output will provide useful errors.
Fixes#13655.
Zulip has had a small use of WebSockets (specifically, for the code
path of sending messages, via the webapp only) since ~2013. We
originally added this use of WebSockets in the hope that the latency
benefits of doing so would allow us to avoid implementing a markdown
local echo; they were not. Further, HTTP/2 may have eliminated the
latency difference we hoped to exploit by using WebSockets in any
case.
While we’d originally imagined using WebSockets for other endpoints,
there was never a good justification for moving more components to the
WebSockets system.
This WebSockets code path had a lot of downsides/complexity,
including:
* The messy hack involving constructing an emulated request object to
hook into doing Django requests.
* The `message_senders` queue processor system, which increases RAM
needs and must be provisioned independently from the rest of the
server).
* A duplicate check_send_receive_time Nagios test specific to
WebSockets.
* The requirement for users to have their firewalls/NATs allow
WebSocket connections, and a setting to disable them for networks
where WebSockets don’t work.
* Dependencies on the SockJS family of libraries, which has at times
been poorly maintained, and periodically throws random JavaScript
exceptions in our production environments without a deep enough
traceback to effectively investigate.
* A total of about 1600 lines of our code related to the feature.
* Increased load on the Tornado system, especially around a Zulip
server restart, and especially for large installations like
zulipchat.com, resulting in extra delay before messages can be sent
again.
As detailed in
https://github.com/zulip/zulip/pull/12862#issuecomment-536152397, it
appears that removing WebSockets moderately increases the time it
takes for the `send_message` API query to return from the server, but
does not significantly change the time between when a message is sent
and when it is received by clients. We don’t understand the reason
for that change (suggesting the possibility of a measurement error),
and even if it is a real change, we consider that potential small
latency regression to be acceptable.
If we later want WebSockets, we’ll likely want to just use Django
Channels.

I added this tool a few years ago, and I did have
a vision for how it would improve our codebase, but
I can't remember exactly where I was going with it.
At this point the tool is just a little too noisy
to be helpful. An example of it creating confusion
was a recent PR where somebody was patching
user_circle_class in the PM list, and we already
had similar code in the buddy list, because they
use the same CSS. I mean, there was possibly a way
that the code could have been structured to remove
some of the duplication, but it probably would have
just moved the complexity around.
I just don't think it's worth maintaining the tool
at this point.
The well-known rowanj/gitx repository hasn't been updated since 2014.
Preferentially direct new contributors to gitx/gitx instead.
(We retain the rowanj repo as a fallback, since it has precompiled
releases available.)
This moves the mandatory configuration for options A/B/C into a single
bulleted list for each option, rather than split across two steps; I
think the result is significantly more readable.
It also fixes a bug where we suggested setting
AUTH_LDAP_REVERSE_EMAIL_SEARCH = AUTH_LDAP_USER_SEARCH in some cases,
whereas in fact it will never work because the parameters are
`%(email)s`, not `%(user)s`.
Also, now that one needs to set AUTH_LDAP_REVERSE_EMAIL_SEARCH, it
seems worth adding values for that to the Active Directory
instructions. Thanks to @alfonsrv for the suggestion.
This simplifies the RDS installation process to avoid awkwardly
requiring running the installer twice, and also is significantly more
robust in handling issues around rerunning the installer.
Finally, the answer for whether dictionaries are missing is available
to Django for future use in warnings/etc. around full-text search not
being great with this configuration, should they be required.
The previous documentation was essentially wrong, in that it
recommended copying certain settings that would cause significant

This fixes a collection of bugs surrounding LDAP configurations A and

The core problem was that our desired security model in that setting

Now admins can configure an LDAPSearch query that will find if there
are users in LDAP that have the email address and
email_belongs_to_ldap() will take advantage of that - no longer
returning True in response to all requests and thus blocking email
backend authentication.

users (and likely will make it so soon in the code) because the
failure modes for this not being configured are confusing.

- Updated 260+ links from ".html" to ".md" to reduce the number of issues
reported about hyperlinks not working when viewing docs on Github.
- Removed temporary workaround that suppressed all warnings reported
by sphinx build for every link ending in ".html".
Details:
The recent upgrade to recommonmark==0.5.0 supports auto-converting
".md" links to ".html" so that the resulting HTML output is correct.
Notice that links pointing to a heading i.e. "../filename.html#heading",
were not updated because recommonmark does not auto-convert them.
These links do not generate build warnings and do not cause any issues.
However, there are about ~100 such links that might still get misreported
as broken links. This will be a follow-up issue.

docs: Allow .md links between doc pages #11719Fixes#11087.
Previously, we were hardcoding the domain s3.amazonaws.com. Given
that we already have an interface for configuring the host in
/etc/zulip/boto.cfg (which in turn, automatically configures boto), we
just need to actually use the value configured in boto for what S3
hostname to use.
We don't have tests for this new use case, in part because they're
likely annoying to write with `moto` and there hasn't been a huge
amount of demand for it. Since this doesn't regress existing S3
backend support, it seems worth merging.
Add a specific command to restart Vagrant to adopt the new
configuration.
(When naïvely using only `vagrant halt` + `vagrant up --provision`,
external devices remained unable to connect; per `netstat -nltp`, the
host IP of forwarded ports remained `127.0.0.1`.)

- Removed unreleased tag in docs/conf.py that's no longer used
Useful ref: https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/templating.htmlFixes#13056.
This requires part 1 (which can take hours to run but generally
doesn't require downtime) to be completed first.
This portion of the migration will require the server to be completely
down for a brief period; for chat.zulip.org with 250M UserMessage
rows, it took about 60s to run; that time will vary depending on
hardware details like whether the server has an SSD, but fundamentally
shouldn't be long.
Our upgrade-zulip and upgrade-zulip-from-git tools can apply this
migration correctly; nothing special needs to be done.
Fixes#13040.
mypy in daemon mode takes some 400 MiB of memory, and cannot follow
imports of type-annotated third-party packages; meanwhile, non-daemon
mode is no longer nearly as slow as it once was.

Previously, Google might take you to /latest rather than /stable, and
you might get information about the next release, not the current one.
Fixes#13056.
Apparently, the ordering matters.
This command now matches what we use for installing single-purpose
installations; I should have checked this directly.
One needs to explicitly request zulip::base, it appears. Ideally,
we'd just have every ruleset depend on zulip::base, but I seem to
recall Puppet didn't like your including the same module from multiple
places. Worth testing as a follow-up investigation.
This was missed because we use the zulip_ops rules internally, which
include zulip::base via zulip_ops::base.
This commit finishes adding end-to-end support for the install script
on Debian Buster (making it production ready). Some support for this
was already added in prior commits such as
99414e2d96.
We plan to revert the postgres hunks of this once we've built
tsearch_extras for our packagecloud archive.
Fixes#9828.
This plugin automatically updates the VirtualBox Guest Additions in
the guest, which makes shared folders work more reliably.

In this section of the docs, two tools for testing openapi
documentation are mentioned. But for the second one, we
forgot to mention that the tool also resides in the tools/
folder (like the first one which explicitly mentions it).
This commit fixes that.
Delete trailing newlines from all files, except
tools/ci/success-http-headers.txt and tools/setup/dev-motd, where they
are significant, and static/third, where we want to stay close to
upstream.

As a result of dropping support for trusty, we can remove our old
pattern of putting `if False` before importing the typing module,
which was essential for Python 3.4 support, but not required and maybe
harmful on newer versions.

Outgoing email documentation should mention that the SMTP server needs
to allow emails originating from ZULIP_ADMINISTRATOR as well as the
noreply email addresses; previously, one would typically find this out
using the test tool, which was not ideal.
Substantially tweaked by tabbott for organization and content.
This replaces the two custom Google authentication backends originally
written in 2012 with using the shared python-social-auth codebase that
we already use for the GitHub authentication backend. These are:
* GoogleMobileOauth2Backend, the ancient code path for mobile
authentication last used by the EOL original Zulip Android app.
* The `finish_google_oauth2` code path in zerver/views/auth.py, which
was the webapp (and modern mobile app) Google authentication code
path.
This change doesn't fix any known bugs; its main benefit is that we
get to remove hundreds of lines of security-sensitive semi-duplicated
code, replacing it with a widely trusted, high quality third-party
library.
We had an organization with engineers for whom English was not their
native language think they needed to go through this laborious
process, which was definitely counterproductive for them.
Many Linux distros like Debian Buster, Fedora 29, etc. have a policy
where any services installed are disabled by default. So we should let
the developer know that they should explicitly enable and start the
Docker daemon.
Also, we should be verbose on how to do vagrant up using Docker as a
provider specifically (and similar for Virtualbox).
This was rewritten by tabbott to use markdown steps, avoid
distractions about things you don't need to change, and remove the
screenshots, which I felt were more clutter than value.
We had several patches to spectrum, but the only essential one
(0ea770fc18) had already been fixed upstream,
and another was just handling jQuery deprecation warnings for not yet removed features.
See #12749 for details.
