Merges the "Upgrades" section from production/maintain-secure-upgrade.md
with production/modifying-zulip.md.
Contains significant textual changes by tabbott to read more clearly.
django_to_ldap_username is now able to find the correct ldap username in
every supported type of configuration, so we can remove these
conditionals and use django_to_ldap_username in a straight-forward
manner.
Having to account everywhere for both cases of having and not
having email search configured makes things needlessly complicated.
It's better to make the setting obligatory in configurations other than
LDAP_APPEND_DOMAIN.
This function is inherited by ZulipLDAPUserPopulator and overriden by
ZulipLDAPAuthBackend, so it's more clear to have it simply defined in
ZulipLDAPUserPopulator directly.
Previously, we were using user_profile.email rather than
user_profile.delivery_email in all calculations involving Gravatar
URLs, which meant that all organizations with the new
EMAIL_ADDRESS_VISIBILITY_ADMINS setting enabled had useless gravatars
not based on the `user15@host.domain` type fake email addresses we
generate for the API to refer to users.
The fix is to convert these calculations to use the user's
delivery_email. Some refactoring is required to ensure the data is
passed through to the parts of the codebase that do the check;
fortunately, our automated tests of schemas are effective in verifying
that the new `sender_delivery_email` field isn't visible to the API.
Fixes#13369.
Previously, we weren't properly passing through the value of the
client_gravatar flag from the caller, resulting in buggy results if
the caller passed client_gravatar=False to do_test().
We happened to not have any uses of this before, but we're about to
add one.
Apparently, the refactor months ago that introduced finalize_payload
wasn't applied to the outgoing webhook code path, resulting in message
dicts with an unexpected format with no avatar_url and some extra
values that were intended to be internal details not relevant to
external clients.
Because this API is not widely used, we expect there to be little to
no impact of converting this back to matching the `get_messages`
interface, as it once was and has always been intended to be.
The one somewhat tricky detail is that we include both the `content`
and `rendered_content` fields, rather than asking the client to pick
which they want via the `apply_markdown` flag, because there is no
place for the client to configure that setting.
Previously, we skipped setting the list of subscribers to the channel,
which could result in problems if any messages had been posted there
in the past (e.g. because the channel used to have members, but now
doesn't). It could be correct to skip importing dead channels
altogether, but probably simpler is to just set an empty subscriber list.
Previously, our logic to handle Mattermost's "replies" feature didn't
copy the right fields for private messages, where `channel_members` is
included on the message body rather than a `channel` name.
As discussed in the comment, ideally these checks should be added
completely automatically, rather than needing to be manually added
every time we add a new setting. But hopefully the example code for
all of the similar enums that this provides will at least provide some
help.
By adding some additional plumbing (through PreregistrationUser) of the
full_name and an additional full_name_validated option, we
pre-populate the Full Name field in the registration form when coming
through a social backend (google/github/saml/etc.) and potentially skip
the registration form (if the user would have nothing to do there other
than clicking the Confirm button) and just create the account and log
the user in.
The main purpose of this is to make that name change happen in
/server_settings. external_authentication_methods is a much better, more
descriptive name than social_backends from API perspective.
These are returned through the API, at the /server_settings
endpoint. It's better to just return the list of dicts with a guarantee
of being sorted in the correct order, than to clutter things with the
sort_order field.
This commit was originally automatically generated using `tools/lint
--only=eslint --fix`. It was then modified by tabbott to contain only
changes to a set of files that are unlikely to result in significant
merge conflicts with any open pull request, excluding about 20 files.
His plan is to merge the remaining changes with more precise care,
potentially involving merging parts of conflicting pull requests
before running the `eslint --fix` operation.

This small block of code was over-indented. It should be run in this
part of the function unconditionally, not inside an "else" block.
We obviously want it to run regardless of whether
request.POST.get('from_confirmation')
is True or not.
Needed so that the google entry in social_backends in /server_settings
shows the new url rather than the legacy accounts/login/google/ url as
the login url.
This legacy endpoint was designed for the original native Zulip mobile
apps, which were deprecated years ago in favor of the React Native
app.
It was replaced by /server_settings for active use years ago, so it's
safe to remove it now.
- Merges the "Backups" section from production/maintain-secure-upgrade.md
with existing "Backups" section in production/export-and-import.md.
- Cleans up and makes content more clear/explicit.
- Adds short missing section on how to use wal-e configuration.
- Removes a lot of previously duplicate text explaining the difference between
the tools.
- Various textual tweaks by tabbott.
Fixes#13184 and resolves#293.
