Updates the main description of the `api/set-typing-status` endpoint
for the new fields in the register response for the typing start,
stop, expired time intervals. Previously these were hardcoded by
the client side code and not the server side code.
Also updates the developer documentation for typing indicators in
the subsystems docs. This refreshes a few parts of that doc that
were already out of date, as well as adds the information about
the new register response fields noted above.
The "followup_day2" email template name is not clear or descriptive
about the purpose of the email. Creates a duplicate of those email
template files with the template name "zulip_onboarding_topics".
Because any existing scheduled emails that use the "followup_day2"
templates will need to be updated before the current templates can
be removed, we don't do a simple file rename here.
We have historically cached two types of values
on a per-request basis inside of memory:
* linkifiers
* display recipients
Both of these caches were hand-written, and they
both actually cache values that are also in memcached,
so the per-request cache essentially only saves us
from a few memcached hits.
I think the linkifier per-request cache is a necessary
evil. It's an important part of message rendering, and
it's not super easy to structure the code to just get
a single value up front and pass it down the stack.
I'm not so sure we even need the display recipient
per-request cache any more, as we are generally pretty
smart now about hydrating recipient data in terms of
how the code is organized. But I haven't done thorough
research on that hypotheseis.
Fortunately, it's not rocket science to just write
a glorified memoize decorator and tie it into key
places in the code:
* middleware
* tests (e.g. asserting db counts)
* queue processors
That's what I did in this commit.
This commit definitely reduces the amount of code
to maintain. I think it also gets us closer to
possibly phasing out this whole technique, but that
effort is beyond the scope of this PR. We could
add some instrumentation to the decorator to see
how often we get a non-trivial number of saved
round trips to memcached.
Note that when we flush linkifiers, we just use
a big hammer and flush the entire per-request
cache for linkifiers, since there is only ever
one realm in the cache.
Restore the default django.utils.log.AdminEmailHandler when
ERROR_REPORTING is enabled. Those with more sophisticated needs can
turn it off and use Sentry or a Sentry-compatible system.

It’s unclear what was supposed to be “safe” about this wrapper. The
hashlib API is fine without it, and we don’t want to encourage further

- Updates instances of "private message", "PM", and "private_message",
excluding historical references in `overview/changelog.md`.
- Also excludes `/docs/translating` since we would need new
translations for "direct messages" and "DMs".
This better presents the CSS organization for readers, and also
removes a stale reference and link to Bootstrap.
Because postcss-nesting's spec-aligned syntax has tripped up some
contributors, the mention of PostCSS now includes a link to the
postcss-nesting README and the CSS Nesting spec from the W3C, which
PostCSS Nesting attempts to adhere to.
In #23380 we want to change all ocurrences of `uri` to `url`. This
commit changes the ocurrences of `uri` appeared in files related to
email, including templates (`.html`, `.txt`) and backend (`.py`)
codes.
In `email.md`, `base_images_uri` is changed to `images_base_url` -
the words `base` and `images` are swapped and plural form is added
for `image`. This is becasue the former is not found anywhere in
the codebase while the later appears a lot. To reduce confusion,
this doccumentation changed accordingly.
This removes the production reporting to `/json/report/error` upon
`blueslip.error`, and replaces it with reporting to Sentry, if
enabled. Sentry provides better reporting and grouping for exceptions
than the email- and `#errors`-reporting provided by the
`/json/report/error` endpoint.
The development behaviour of rendering `blueslip.error` messages and
stacktraces immediately, and stopping execution, is preserved.
To better chain exception information, the whole previous exception is
passed to `blueslip.error`, not just the stack, and the second
parameter is formalized to be an object to map to Sentry's "context"
concept.
Previously, we had an architecture where CSS inlining for emails was
done at provision time in inline_email_css.py. This was necessary
because the library we were using for this, Premailer, was extremely
slow, and doing the inlining for every outgoing email would have been
prohibitively expensive.
Now that we've migrated to a more modern library that inlines the
small amount of CSS we have into emails nearly instantly, we are able
to remove the complex architecture built to work around Premailer
being slow and just do the CSS inlining as the final step in sending
each individual email.
This has several significant benefits:
* Removes a fiddly provisioning step that made the edit/refresh cycle
for modifying email templates confusing; there's no longer a CSS
inlining step that, if you forget to do it, results in your testing a
stale variant of the email templates.
* Fixes internationalization problems related to translators working
with pre-CSS-inlined emails, and then Django trying to apply the
translators to the post-CSS-inlined version.
* Makes the send_custom_email pipeline simpler and easier to improve.

Primary goal of library replacement is improving execution speed.
This commit should not affect the functionality of the system
or make any changes to it.
Since we are migrating from JavaScript to TypeScript
some files in the documentation are still with their
old extension. This commit changes those file extensions.
Because `yarn.lock` includes transitive dependencies, it already pins
our dependencies more comprehensively than `package.json` would if we
followed this bad advice, which we don’t, as of commit

This lets us simplify the long-ish ‘../../static/js’ paths, and will

Ever since we started bundling the app with webpack, there’s been less
and less overlap between our ‘static’ directory (files belonging to
the frontend app) and Django’s interpretation of the ‘static’
directory (files served directly to the web).
Split the app out to its own ‘web’ directory outside of ‘static’, and
remove all the custom collectstatic --ignore rules. This makes it
much clearer what’s actually being served to the web, and what’s being
bundled by webpack. It also shrinks the release tarball by 3%.

Corepack manages multiple per-project version of Yarn and PNPM, which

switch away from Yarn 1 without making the system unusable for

Changes all the uses of the word "operators" to "filters" in
contributor docs, help center, and landing page to align with
the updated help center documentation.
Since this is being moved to admin-facing documentation, also adds a
paragraph about the main concern with enabling this on a server that's
not zulip.com.
Inspired by #23377. We document a convention maneuver to avoid adding

We should rearrange Zulip's developer docs to make it easier to
find the documentation that new contributors need.
Name changes
Rename "Code contribution guide" section -> "Contributing to Zulip".
Rename "Contributing to Zulip" page -> "Contributing guide".
Organizational changes to the newly-named "Contributing to Zulip":
Move up "Contributing to Zulip", as the third link in sidebar index.
Move up renamed "Contributing guide" page to the top of this section.
Move up "Zulip code of Conduct", as the second link of this section.
Move down "Licensing", as the last link of this section.
Move "Accessibility" just below "HTML and CSS" in Subsystems section.
Update all links according to the changes above.
Redirects should be added as needed.
Fixes: #22517.

This uses the myst_heading_anchors option to automatically generate
header anchors and make Sphinx aware of them. See
https://myst-parser.readthedocs.io/en/latest/syntax/optional.html#auto-generated-header-anchors.
Note: to be compatible with GitHub, MyST-Parser uses a slightly
different convention for .md fragment links than .html fragment links
when punctuation is involved. This does not affect the generated
fragment links in the HTML output.

We previously had a convention of redundantly including the directory
in relative links to reduce mistakes when moving content from one file

test-documentation, and after #21237, MyST-Parser will check relative
links (including fragments) when you run build-docs.

It seems like orange is the loudest possible color to
denote a quasi-neutral-idle state, so we hope to
replace it with another color.
This commit does not change any styling.
I removed the sentences in the doc, since they are
kind of too vague to be useful. If we want to say that
the idle state is correlated with the half-orange
circles in the buddy list, then we want to say that
more specifically.
Updates the tutorial for writing help center articles to encourage
contributors to add to or enhance the existing help center docs
before writing a new articles for new features.
Also, generally updates references to 'user documentation' to be
'help center documentation'.
Additionally, updates some headers within the tutorials for clarity
and consistency, and adds some linkifying throughout the section on
writing documentation.
As a consequence:
• Bump minimum supported Python version to 3.7.
• Move Vagrant environment to Debian 10, which has Python 3.7.
• Move CI frontend tests to Debian 10.
• Move production build test to Debian 10.

We recently changed /developer-community to /development-community.
Now that this change is in production, we can also migrate the
external links in our ReadTheDocs documentation.
This helps increase the probability that folks read the guidelines for how the
chat.zulip.org community works and what streams to use before arriving there.
Fixes#19827.
Previously, our docs had links to various versions of the Django docs,
eg https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.10/topics/migrations/ and
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.0/ref/signals/#post-save, opening
a link to a doc with an outdated Django version would show a warning
"This document is for an insecure version of Django that is no longer
supported. Please upgrade to a newer release!".
This commit uses a search with the regex
"docs.djangoproject.com/en/([0-9].[0-9]*)/" and replaces all matches
inside the /docs/ folder with "docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.2/".
All the new links in this commit have been generated by the above
replace and each link has then been manually checked to ensure that
(1) the page still exists and has not been moved to a new location
(and it has been found that no page has been moved like this), (2)
that the anchor that we're linking to has not been changed (and it has
been found that this happened once, for https://docs.djangoproject.com
/en/1.8/ref/django-admin/#runserver-port-or-address-port, where
/#runserver-port-or-address-port was changed to /#runserver).
Removes the `/day` and `/night` options from the typeahead menu while
still allowing the commands to be used. Typing `/day` and `/night`
will now suggest `/light` and `/dark`, respectively. Also changes the
`Dark mode` and `Light mode` popups that appear after using the
corresponding command.
