This reorders the sections such that setting up the development
environment and making sure it runs comes before editing the
code. Also added some clarifying sentences to give context to bullets.
Two reasons not to use such links:
- when making doc changes, if you follow links in your local build, they can
cause you to silently end up no longer reading your local changes
- they can cause you to randomly switch between http:// and https://
(This is mostly an internal dev document for now. We should eventually
link it into our RTD system, perhaps after we think we are mostly
bug-free in terms of what the doc specifies.)
This renames the old `emoji_dump.py` to `build_emoji`, removing the
old shell essentially empty shell script. `emoji_dump.py` was always
a weird name, and this makes it a bit easier to read the code for this
system.
Added user and realm export guidance in production maintenance docs,
linked to conversion guide, and revamped the introduction and styled
the text that Steve wrote.
Also, de-emphasize the process for creating new test modules,
as this is an advanced task that we can further document later
and generally handle as part of code review.
The changes that required us to fork this extension had been merged
into upstream CodeHilite, so we can remove it and switch to using the
version that comes with python-markdown.
I think the old place where we had it broke up the flow.
Once this is about twice as long as it is currently, we should move it
to be its own document.
(Most of this work was done by acrefoot in an earlier branch.
I took over the branch to fix casper tests that were broken during
the upgrade (which were fixed in a different commit). I also
made most of the changes to run-casper.)
This also upgrades phantomjs to 2.1.7.
The huge structural change here is that we no longer vendor casperjs
or download phantomjs with our own script. Instead, we just use
casperjs and phantomjs from npm, via package.json.
Another thing that we do now is run casperjs tests individually, so
that we don't get strange test flakes from test interactions. (Tests
can still influence each other in terms of changing data, since we
don't yet have code to clear the test database in between tests.)
A lot of this diff is just removing files and obsolete configurations.
The main new piece is in package.json, which causes npm to install the
new version.
Also, run-casper now runs files individually, as mentioned above.
We had vendored casperjs in the past. I didn't bring over any of our
changes. Some of the changes were performance-related (primarily
5fd58cf249), so the upgraded version may
be slower in some instances. (I didn't do much measurement of that,
since most of our slowness when running tests is about the setup
environment, not casper itself.) Any bug fixes that we may have
implemented in the past were either magically fixed by changes to
casper itself or by improvements we have made in the tests themselves
over the years.
Tim tested the Casper suite on his machine and running the full Casper
test suite is faster than it was before this change (1m30 vs. 1m50),
so we're at least not regressing overall performance.
Adds a new field org_type to Realm. Defaults for restricted_to_domain
and invite_required are now controlled by org_type at time of realm
creation (see zerver.lib.actions.do_create_realm), rather than at the
database level. Note that the backend defaults are all
org_type=corporate, since that matches the current assumptions in the
codebase, whereas the frontend default is org_type=community, since if
a user isn't sure they probably want community.
Since we will likely in the future enable/disable various
administrative features based on whether an organization is corporate
or community, we discuss those issues in the realm creation form.
Before we actually implement any such features, we'll want to make
sure users understand what type of organization they are a member of.
Choice of org_type (via radio button) has been added to the realm
creation flow and the realm creation management command, and the
open-realm option removed.
The database defaults have not been changed, which allows our testing code
to work unchanged.
[includes some HTML/CSS work by Brock Whittaker to make it look nice]
This optimizes the process of running individual or small groups of
backend tests (./tools/test-backend
zerver.tests.test_bugdown.FencedBlockPreprocessorTest.test_simple_quoting)
to allow the following syntaxes:
./tools/test-backend zerver/tests/test_bugdown.py
./tools/test-backend zerver.tests.test_bugdown.py
./tools/test-backend zerver/tests/test_bugdown
./tools/test-backend zerver.tests.test_bugdown
./tools/test-backend test_bugdown.py
./tools/test-backend test_bugdown
./tools/test-backend FencedBlockPreprocessorTest
./tools/test-backend FencedBlockPreprocessorTest.test_simple_quoting
Fixes#1670.
This was the original way to send messages via the Zulip API in the
very early days of Zulip, but was replaced by the REST API back in
2013.
Fixes: #730.
NVM takes a specific node version and installs the node package and
a corresponding compatible npm package.
We use it in a somewhat hackish way to install node/npm globally with
a pinned version, since that's how we actually want to consume node in
our development environment.
Other details:
- Travis CI now is configured to use the version of node installed by
provision; the easiest way to do this was to sabotage the existing node
installation.
- jsdom is upgraded to a current version, which both requires recent
node and also is required for the tests to pass with recent node.
This fixes running the node tests on Xenial.
Fixes#1498.

This adds support for using VMWare Fusion as the Vagrant provider,
which has better performance than Virtualbox at the price of being
nonfree (in all senses of the term).
We haven't done solid benchmarking as to how much faster it is than
the Virtualbox provider.
This adds support for using PGroonga to back the Zulip full-text
search feature. Because built-in PostgreSQL full text search doesn't
support languages that don't put space between terms such as Japanese,
Chinese and so on. PGroonga supports all languages including Japanese
and Chinese.
Developers will need to re-provision when rebasing past this patch for
the tests to pass, since provision is what installs the PGroonga
package and extension.
PGroonga is enabled by default in development but not in production;
the hope is that after the PGroonga support is tested further, we can
enable it by default.
Fixes#615.
[docs and tests tweaked by tabbott]
- Adds heading and reorganizes sections for improved clarity. Sections
now ordered: Create user, grant admin access, default realm settings,
changing realm settings, other manage.py commands, if you can't login.
- Adds screen shots of Zulip web interface.
- Moves Let's Encrypt option for ssl certs above self-signed option.
Updates Let's Excrypt instructions to user Certbot (new recommended
method). Fixes#1426.
- Adds and updates headings for clarity.
- Adds new step 6 about configuring authentication (from
prod-auth-first-login.html).
- Adds emphasis on using `su zulip`, `sudo -u zulip -i`, and `sudo -i`
where appropriate. Fixes#1356.
Fixes#1245.
- Reformats bullets as regular paragraphs for improved readability.
- Adds headings to subsections to make them easier to read and linkable.
- Clarifies minor points throughout.
- Add headings for each of the six major sections: integrations, streams
and topics, notification settings, mobile and desktop apps, other
great features, and enjoy your Zulip installation.
- Add links to each of these sections to top of page, with first and
most important four formatted as a list.
- Adds headings for 'supervisorctl' and 'troubleshooting'.
- Rearranges to include most important info at top: that Supervisor is
used, a reminder to review components architecture, log location, link
to troubleshooting services section, and a request to report any
issues not already documented on this page.
Extract dispatch_normal_event() from the inner
function dispatch_event() in get_events_success()
in server_events.js. Also, alphabetize the cases in
the switch statement. This starts to address #1541,
but see the discussion on the ticket for how we can
continue to clean up our event dispatching.
Create `media.css` using media queries that had been at the bottom
of `zulip.css`, then update miscellaneous setttings/docs files.
I also add `.screen-medium-show` and `.screen-narrow-show` to
`media.css`, as they seem to be an important part of our
responsive design.
Fixes#1532.
Define Integration and WebhookIntegration classes.
Change webhook part of integration's guide.
Replace hardcoded webhook urls to generating
based on WEBHOOKS list.
