Travis enables different Python versions through virtual environments,
but it seems that there is a little caveat when we try to create Zulip's
virtual environment by referring Travis' virtual environment; Zulip's
virtual environment refers the system Python. We encountered this
behaviour when we tried to run our backend test suite under Python 3.5
in Travis. 'python3 --version' command before activating Zulip's
virtualenv showed 'Python 3.5.3' and after it showed 'Python 3.4.3'.
This happened when we created the virtual environment using
'virtualenv -p python3'.
The solution seems to be to explicitly give the path of the Python
interpreter in the Travis' virtual environment using 'which python3'.
This causes `upgrade-zulip-from-git`, as well as a no-option run of
`tools/build-release-tarball`, to produce a Zulip install running
Python 3, rather than Python 2. In particular this means that the
virtualenv we create, in which all application code runs, is Python 3.
One shebang line, on `zulip-ec2-configure-interfaces`, explicitly
keeps Python 2, and at least one external ops script, `wal-e`, also
still runs on Python 2. See discussion on the respective previous
commits that made those explicit. There may also be some other
third-party scripts we use, outside of this source tree and running
outside our virtualenv, that still run on Python 2.
From the line in tools/provision it should trickle to the rest of the
scripts. This works since almost all the python scripts have been linted
to be generic.
Proof that the setup is python3 only: with this commit, within the
vagrant container env, /srv/zulip-venv is no longer present and
`./tools/run-dev.py` runs just fine.

Updates `get_success_stamp()` function to use the `emoji-datasource`
package's version while calculating success stamp so that an emoji
cache rebuild gets triggered automatically if the version is changed.
This tool was used for downloading sprite sheets from iamcal's
repository. Since now we have moved to using `emoji-datasource`
npm package, this tool is no longer required.
This commit does the following things:
* Instead of using a manual tool for downloading sprite sheets, use
`emoji-datasource` npm package.
* Modify the `build_emoji` script to use sprite sheets from the npm
package.
Bumps PROVISION_VERSION.
Fixes: #4730.
Moves creating the emoji folder from the provisioning script to
the build_emoji script.
Fixes the fact that the emoji cache directory wasn't being created
when not using the provision.py script.
Due to differences between the codepoints of flag emojis in
`emoji_map.json` and iamcal's dataset, we need to patch the
css classes for the flag emojis temporarily until the migration
to iamcal's dataset is complete inorder to render them properly.
There is a difference between the images of flag emojis in our
old emoji farm and iamcal's spritesheets and since we have not
yet switched to using spritesheets for displaying emojis in
messages, there is a difference between the flag emojis as
rendered in messages and in emoji pickers.
Modify the spritesheet generation code to account for the differences
between emoji_map.json and iamcal's dataset. Due to the differences
between the two mappings, some emojis like 1️⃣, 2️⃣ etc were not
getting rendered properly in the two emoji pickers where we are using
the iamcal's spritesheets for rendering them. This was so because there
was no CSS class corresponding to the codepoints of these emojis(as
mapped using emoji_map.json) in our spritesheet CSS(generated using
iamcal's dataset).
Fixes: #4775.
This removes scaling from the emojis by changing the background size to
a lower value and then allowing for the widths and heights of the
emojis to be proportionally smaller.
The transform: scale property would cause many more repaints in Chrome
and other browsers than should have been necessary which would render
messages above and below the feed light grey boxes that would
momentarily flash as blank before filling with content.
Modified by tabbott to use a percentage in the background-size.
Fixes#4660.
Modified composebox_typeahead.js to recognize the triple backtick
and tilde for code blocks, and added appropriate typeahead functions
in that file and in typeahead_helper.js.
Additionally, a new file pygments_data.js contains a dictionary of
the supported languages, mapping to relative popularity
rankings. These rankings determine the order of sort of the
languages in the typeahead.
This JavaScript file is actually in static/generated/pygments_data.js, as it
is generated by a Python script, tools/build_pymgents_data.py. This is
so that if Pygments adds support for new languages, the JavaScript file
will be updated appropriately. This python script uses a set of popularity
rankings defined in lang.json.
Corresponding unit tests were also added.
Fixes#4111.
'$COMMIT' was originally printed in '$COMMIT_FILE_PATH' before all
respective files were downloaded, meaning that this step
wouldn't be repeated if one download failed. This commit prints
'$COMMIT' only after all downloads were successful.
Add code to download iamcal's sprite sheets and generate CSS files required
for displaying these sprite sheets using emoji's unicode codepoints rather
than their names.
Use `emoji.json` to create a emoji catalog and add it to
`emoji_code.js` file. This catalog contains the unicode
codepoints of all the emojis grouped according to their
category. Emojis are sorted according to the `sort_order`
defined in the iamcal's dataset.
Move zulip-emoji from its current location `images/emoji` to
`images/emoji/unicode` and add a symlink in `images/emoji`
to zulip.png in `images/emoji/unicode`.
This fixes an issue where provision would fail if the user's home
directory was setup in such a way that the postgres user couldn't
access it (and thus the `sudo` command here would throw errors about
having a non-readable current working directory).
Previously, if you searched for ':offi..' you would see both 🏢 and
:office_building: as possible completions, both of which are shortcodes for
the same unicode codepoint (and hence which have the same image). Also, we
sort the emoji in our emoji pickers alphabetically by shortcode, and so the
images for 🏢 and :office_building: show up next to each other, which
looks like a bug. This removes :office_building: as a shortcode, along with
several hundred other duplicates. It leaves some duplicates in that won't
give autocomplete or alphabetical ordering a problem, like (🚗,
:automobile:).
Replaces the hardcoded list of emoji_names and unicode_emoji_names in
static/js/emoji.js with a list generated from emoji_map.json, both to get
the list out of version control and so we can start modifying it for our
autocomplete. This does not change the contents of emoji_names. It sorts and
removes duplicates from unicode_emoji_names (causes no change in behavior,
since unicode_emoji_names is only used as if it were a set).
