Adds nullable creator field, containing a reference to the user who
created the stream. When creating a stream, acting user is set as
the creator of the stream. Since API calls to create streams always
have an acting user, this field should always be set when streams
are created using the API.
Because streams can be created with no acting user, this field is
nullable. We try to backfill existing streams using RealmAuditLog table,
but not all streams are guaranteed to have a recorded create log. Thus
this new field is left null when it cannot be backfilled. We also set
this field to null when the creator user is deleted.
This commit adds an option to the advanced section of
Preferences settings, that would allow users to choose
whether to receive typing notifications from other
users.
Fixes#29642
In commit 32d5b4fe3e, the channel and channels operators were
documented in the API docs. This bumps the API version to match
those changes.
Also, cleans up one Changes note from the same commit noted above.
For endpoints with a type parameter to indicate whether a message is
a direct or stream message, adds support for passing "channel" as a
value for stream messages.
Part of stream to channel rename project.
Adds "channel" to the `stream_wildcards` frozenset for stream
wildcard notifications on the backend/server.
Updates frontend/web-app to handle "channel" as the other stream
wildcards are handled in the typeahead and composebox modules.
Updates the API version and documentation for the addition of
"channel" as a wildcard mention. But does not change any of the
functionailty of (or deprecate) the "stream" wildcard at this
point.
Part of project to rename "stream" to "channel".
Previously, users were allowed to signup or change their names to
those which already existed in the realm.
This commit adds an Organization Permission, that shall enforce
users to use unique names while signing up or changing their
names. If a same or normalized full name is found in realm,
then a validation error is thrown.
Fixes#7830.
Replace a separate call to subprocess, starting `node` from scratch,
with an optional standalone node Express service which performs the
rendering. In benchmarking, this reduces the overhead of a KaTeX call
from 120ms to 2.8ms. This is notable because enough calls to KaTeX in
a single message would previously time out the whole message
rendering.
The service is optional because he majority of deployments do not use
enough LaTeX to merit the additional memory usage (60Mb).
Fixes: #17425.
This commit adds a realm-level setting named
'zulip_update_announcements_stream' that configures the
stream to which zulip updates should be posted.
Fixes part of #28604.
This commit renames the realm-level setting 'notifications_stream'
to 'new_stream_announcements_stream'.
The new name reflects better what the setting does.
