We now have a simple algorithm: First, look at the URL path
(e.g. /de/, which is intended to be an override). Second, look at the
language the user has specified in their settings.
We haven't seen significant traffic from the legacy desktop app in
over a year, and users using it get a warning to upgrade since last
summer, so it's probably OK to stop providing special fonts for it.
The handlebars error message is just for the manual development
environment; this prevents the state of compiling handlebars templates
from run-dev.py from potentially causing the unit tests to fail.
This should make it easier to find the templates that are actually
part of the core webapp, instead of having them all mixed together
with the portico pages.
This bot was basically a duplicate of NOTIFICATION_BOT for some
specific corner cases, and didn't add much value. It's better to just
eliminate it, which also removes some ugly corner cases around what
happens if the user account doesn't exist.
This commit adds a setting to limit creation of generic bots
to admins for realms that want that restriction. (Generic
bots, apart from being considered spammy on some realms,
have less locked down permissions than webhook bots).
Fixes#7066.
This commit allows clients to register client_gravatar=True, and
then we recognize that flag for message events. If the flag is
True, we will not calculate gravatar URLs and let the clients do
it themselves. (Clients can calculate gravatar URLs based on
emails with just a little bit of code.)
Do you call get_recipient(Recipient.STREAM, stream_id) or
get_recipient(stream_id, Recipient.STREAM)? I could never
remember, and it was not very type safe, since both parameters
are integers.
These are just instances that jumped out at me while working on the
subdomains code, mostly while grepping for get_subdomain call sites.
I haven't attempted a comprehensive search, and there are likely
still others left.
In the UI we use locale as the code for the language. Django expects
language code. For Simplified Chinese, 'zh_Hans' is the locale which
maps to a directaory under static/locale, and 'zh-hans' is the language
code, which is used in settings.LANGUAGES setting found in Django.
The original "quality score" was invented purely for populating
our password-strength progress bar, and isn't expressed in terms
that are particularly meaningful. For configuration and the core
accept/reject logic, it's better to use units that are readily
understood. Switch to those.
I considered using "bits of entropy", defined loosely as the log
of this number, but both the zxcvbn paper and the linked CACM
article (which I recommend!) are written in terms of the number
of guesses. And reading (most of) those two papers made me
less happy about referring to "entropy" in our terminology.
I already knew that notion was a little fuzzy if looked at
too closely, and I gained a better appreciation of how it's
contributed to confusion in discussing password policies and
to adoption of perverse policies that favor "Password1!" over
"derived unusual ravioli raft". So, "guesses" it is.
And although the log is handy for some analysis purposes
(certainly for a graph like those in the zxcvbn paper), it adds
a layer of abstraction, and I think makes it harder to think
clearly about attacks, especially in the online setting. So
just use the actual number, and if someone wants to set a
gigantic value, they will have the pleasure of seeing just
how many digits are involved.
(Thanks to @YJDave for a prototype that the code changes in this
commit are based on.)
This system hasn't been in active use for several years, and had some
problems with it's design. So it makes sense to just remove it to declutter
the codebase.
Fixes#5655.
The change password form http://localhost:9991/#settings/your-account
don't have data-min-length and data-min-quality attributes. The
account_settings.handlebar which has the change password form is
rendered client side. So we have to pass the value of min length
and quality in page params to set the data-min-length and
data-min-quality attributes.
This page describes software the user will get from upstream for
their own devices, independent of what's on the server they're
using. So it should live in a place maintained together with
that other software, rather than be distributed and versioned
with the server.
The use of ZILENCER_ENABLED to tell the difference is rather a hack
but is currently how we do this in the small handful of similar
spots; see #5245.
Fixes#5234.
This is probably not the right long-term solution to the cross-realm
bots problem (that solution is probably to eliminate cross-realm bots
and replace them with per-realm bots). But in the short term, this
will at least make it possible for mobile apps to interact with these
cross-realm bots using the `realm_user` data set.
