This no longer does the correct thing (in terms of onboarding emails,
default streams, etc), and is tempting for new server admins to use.
Once we remove it we'll also have the invariant that we can't have a realm
without a user, which will simplify accounts_register a bit.
This now breaks the process of cleaning up unread counts for
non-active streams into a three step process.
This allows us to use our unread message flags index, at least
in testing on dev. Here is the relevant excerpt from explain
analyze:
Bitmap Index Scan on zerver_usermessage_unread_message_id
This makes supervisor see the service as cheerfully running
and let it alone, rather than constantly retry starting it.
Because the crash/restart loop means repeatedly spending a
couple of seconds loading Django and the app, separated by
brief periods while supervisor notices the crash and acts
on it, it was actually consuming about 30-50% CPU on the
zulipchat.com staging server.
This is to be used for the case of container orchestration instead of
shell arg to prevent snooping by any user account on the server via `ps
-ef` or any superuser with read access to the user\'s bash history.
ScheduledJob was written for much more generality than it ended up being
used for. Currently it is used by send_future_email, and nothing
else. Tailoring the model to emails in particular will make it easier to do
things like selectively clear emails when people unsubscribe from particular
email types, or seamlessly handle using the same email on multiple realms.
Both the queue processor and ScheduledJob emails need to sometimes pass a
to_user_id and sometimes pass a to_email, and it's more convenient to just
have one function that they can call that can handle either.
Also removes the now redundant send_email_to_user.
The MitUser table was removed in df525ad.
confirm_mituser.html could have been accessed through the last few lines of
confirmation/views.py:
templates.insert(0, 'confirmation/confirm_%s.html'
% (obj._meta.model_name,))
The commit message on df525ad suggests there was another way
confirm_mituser.html could have been called, but I don't currently see
evidence for it in the code.
Usually we write translation expressions as `{{t ... }}`, but `{{ t ... }}`
is equally valid as far as Handlebars is concerned, and it matches how we
usually write simple variable substitutions, as `{{ ... }}`. So occasionally
someone writes `{{ t ... }}`; currently there are two examples of this
in the codebase, in `settings/bot-{settings,list-admin}.handlebars`.
Probably it'd be good to pick a style and enforce it uniformly, but
until we do, the other style shouldn't break translation.
- For threaded workers:
Django's autoreloader catches SIGQUIT(3) to reload the program. If
a process being watched by autoreloader exits with status code 3,
reloader will restart the process. To reload, we send SIGUSR1(10)
signal from consumers to a handler in process_queue which then
exits with status code 3.
- For single worker per process:
Catch the SIGUSR1 and quit; supervisorctl will restart the worker
automatically.
Fixes#5512
This system hasn't been in active use for several years, and had some
problems with it's design. So it makes sense to just remove it to declutter
the codebase.
Fixes#5655.
