When calling some functions or assigning values to certain attributes,
the arguments/right operand do not match the exact type that the
functions/attributes expect, and thus we fix that by converting types
beforehand.
Cross realm bots will soon stop being a thing. This param is responsible
for displaying "System Bot" in the user info popover - so this rename is the
right way to handle the situation.
We will likely want to rename the `cross_realm_bots` section as well,
but that is a more involved API migration.
This fixes a batch of mypy errors of the following format:
'Item "None" of "Optional[Something]" has no attribute "abc"
Since we have already been recklessly using these attritbutes
in the tests, adding assertions beforehand is justified presuming
that they oughtn't to be None.
This prevents a memory leak caused by the `SimpleLazyObject` instance of
`UserProfile` that create a reference loop with the request object
via `ZulipRequestNotes`.
This prevents a memory leak arising from Python’s inability to collect
a reference cycle from a WeakKeyDictionary value to its key
(https://bugs.python.org/issue44680).

Sometime in the deep past, Zulip the GET /users/me/subscriptions
endpoint started returning subscribers. We noticed this and made it
optional via the include_subscribers parameter in
1af72a2745, however, we didn't notice
that they were being returned as emails rather than user IDs.
We migrated the core /register code paths to use subscriber IDs years
ago; this change completes that for the endpoints we forgot about.
The documentation allowed this error because we apparently had no
tests for this code path that used the actual API.
We add "ignored_parameters_unsupported" field to the response object
of 'PATCH /settings' endpoint. This will contain the parameters
passed to the endpoint which are not changed by the endpoint and are
ignored.
This will help in removing the other fields like "full_name" from
response which was essentially present to specify that only these
fields were updated by the endpoint and rest were ignored.
We will also change other endpoints to follow this in future.
Previously, non-admin emoji authors were allowed to
delete the emoji only if add_emoji_by_admins_only
was false. But, as add_emoji_by_admins_only setting
is for who can add emoji and not delete emojis, it
should not affect the behavior of deleting emojis
and users should always be allowed to delete the
emojis which. they added themselves
This commit adds moderators and full members options for
user_group_edit_policy by using COMMON_POLICY_TYPES.
Moderators do not require to be a member of user group in
order to edit or remove the user group if they are allowed
to do so according to user_group_edit_policy.
But full members need to be a member of user group to edit
or remove the user group.
There is no need to have a error message which specifies the
roles having permission to edit user-groups, we can simply
have error message as "Insufficient permission" as we already
show the roles having permission clearly in UI.
This concludes the HttpRequest migration to eliminate arbitrary
attributes (except private ones that are belong to django) attached
to the request object during runtime and migrated them to a
separate data structure dedicated for the purpose of adding
information (so called notes) to a HttpRequest.
This migrates some mocked Request class and mocked request achieved
with namedtuple in test_decorators and test_mirror_users to use the
refactored HostMockRequest.
Since weakref cannot be used with namedtuple, this old way of mocking a
request object should be migrated to using HostRequestMock. Only after
this change we can extract client from the request object and store it
via ZulipRequestNotes.
This includes the migration of fields that require trivial changes
to be migrated to be stored with ZulipRequestNotes.
Specifically _requestor_for_logs, _set_language, _query, error_format,
placeholder_open_graph_description, saveed_response, which were all
previously set on the HttpRequest object at some point. This migration
allows them to be typed.
We will no longer use the HttpRequest to store the rate limit data.
Using ZulipRequestNotes, we can access rate_limit and ratelimits_applied
with type hints support. We also save the process of initializing
ratelimits_applied by giving it a default value.
We create a class called ZulipRequestNotes as a new home to all the
additional attributes that we add to the Django HttpRequest object.
This allows mypy to do the typecheck and also enforces type safety.
Most of the attributes are added in the middleware, and thus it is
generally safe to assert that they are not None in a code path that
goes through the middleware. The caller is obligated to do manual
the type check otherwise.
This also resolves some cyclic dependencies that zerver.lib.request
have with zerver.lib.rate_limiter and zerver.tornado.handlers.
