This works around a nasty problem with Webpack that you can't run two
copies of the Webpack development server on the same project at the
same time (even if on different ports). The second copy doesn't fail,
it just hangs waiting for some lock, which is confusing; but even if
that were to be solved, we don't actually need the webpack development
server running to run the Casper tests; we just need bundle.js built.
So the easy solution is to just run webpack manually and be sure to
include bundle.js in the JS_SPECS entry.
As a follow-up to this change, we should clean up how test_settings.py
is implemented to not require duplicating code from settings.py.
Fixes#878.
Apparently, there are like 5 independently developed jquery-caret
plugins, none of which are great. The previous one we were using was
last modified in 2010. This new one comes from
https://github.com/acdvorak/jquery.caret and at least doesn't use
deprecated jQuery syntax and has a repository on GitHub.
This plugin is way larger than it needs to be for what it does, but we
can deal with that later.
This results in a substantial performance improvement for all of
Zulip's backend templates.
Changes in templates:
- Change `block.super` to `super()`.
- Remove `load` tag because Jinja2 doesn't support it.
- Use `minified_js()|safe` instead of `{% minified_js %}`.
- Use `compressed_css()|safe` instead of `{% compressed_css %}`.
- `forloop.first` -> `loop.first`.
- Use `{{ csrf_input }}` instead of `{% csrf_token %}`.
- Use `{# ... #}` instead of `{% comment %}`.
- Use `url()` instead of `{% url %}`.
- Use `_()` instead of `{% trans %}` because in Jinja `trans` is a block tag.
- Use `{% trans %}` instead of `{% blocktrans %}`.
- Use `{% raw %}` instead of `{% verbatim %}`.
Changes in tools:
- Check for `trans` block in `check-templates` instead of `blocktrans`
Changes in backend:
- Create custom `render_to_response` function which takes `request` objects
instead of `RequestContext` object. There are two reasons to do this:
1. `RequestContext` is not compatible with Jinja2
2. `RequestContext` in `render_to_response` is deprecated.
- Add Jinja2 related support files in zproject/jinja2 directory. It
includes a custom backend and a template renderer, compressors for js
and css and Jinja2 environment handler.
- Enable `slugify` and `pluralize` filters in Jinja2 environment.
Fixes#620.
In theory these should be the same, but in misconfigured environments
(such at Travis CI) where /etc/hosts has multiple entries for
"localhost", 127.0.0.1 is safer than "localhost".
Camo is a caching image proxy, used in Zulip to avoid mixed-content
warnings by proxying HTTP image content over HTTPS. We've been using
it in zulip.com production for years; this change makes it available
in standalone Zulip deployments.
In theory, tools like populate_db should probably be in zerver, not
zilencer, but until we migrate them out, we need to include these in
EXTRA_INSTALLED_APPS in development.
As documented in https://github.com/zulip/zulip/issues/441, Guardian
has quite poor performance, and in fact almost 50% of the time spent
running the Zulip backend test suite on my laptop was inside Guardian.
As part of this migration, we also clean up the old API_SUPER_USERS
variable used to mark EMAIL_GATEWAY_BOT as an API super user; now that
permission is managed entirely via the database.
When rebasing past this commit, developers will need to do a
`manage.py migrate` in order to apply the migration changes before the
server will run again.
We can't yet remove Guardian from INSTALLED_APPS, requirements.txt,
etc. in this release, because otherwise the reverse migration won't
work.
Fixes#441.
Move recenter_pointer_on_display, suppress_scroll_pointer_update,
fast_forward_pointer, furthest_read, and server_furthest_read to
a new pointer module in pointer.js.
Previously these were hardcoded in zproject/settings.py to be accessed
on localhost.

This is in some ways a regression, but because we don't have
python-postmonkey packaged right now, this is required to make the
Zulip production installation process work on Trusty.

This experiment has been disabled for everyone for a while: if we
bring something like this back, it is not likely to be exactly the same,
and will be different enough to require a different implementation.
As it is, the summarization code was making a few code paths (rendering
especially) more complex, and is worth removing for simplicity's sake.

Before we deploy this commit, we must migrate the data from the staging redis
server to the new, dedicated redis server. The steps for doing so are the
following:
* Remove the zulip::redis puppet class from staging's zulip.conf
* ssh once from staging to redis-staging.zulip.net so that the host key is known
* Create a tunnel from redis0.zulip.net to staging.zulip.net
* zulip@redis0:~$ ssh -N -L 127.0.0.1:6380:127.0.0.1:6379 -o ServerAliveInterval=30 -o ServerAliveCountMax=3 staging.zulip.net
* Set the redis instance on redis0.zulip.net to replicate the one on staging.zulip.net
* redis 127.0.0.1:6379> slaveof 127.0.0.1 6380
* Stop the app on staging
* Stop redis-server on staging
* Promote the redis server on redis0.zulip.net to a master
* redis 127.0.0.1:6379> slaveof no one
* Do a puppet apply at this commit on staging (this will bring up the tunnel to redis0)
* Deploy this commit to staging (start the app on staging)
* Kill the tunnel from redis0.zulip.net to staging.zulip.net
* Uninstall redis-server on staging
The steps for migrating prod will be the same modulo s/staging/prod0/.

Make our dev setup more similar to prod by using compiled.js,
instead of AJAX-ing templates on the fly and compiling them
with non-node code. This will make our dev environment more

be faster (fewer AJAX calls).
This change also means we don't have to keep two copies

Many deployments will not set AUTH_LDAP_BIND_DN , because they allow
anonymous binding. It is better for us to use AUTH_LDAP_SERVER_URI as a
signal for whether to use LDAP, since any deployment that uses LDAP will
set that local setting.

If authoritative data is available from say the LDAP database, we now
ignore the POSTed user name, and don't offer it as a form field.
We fall back to giving the user a text field if they aren't in LDAP.
If users do not have any form fields to fill out, we simply bring them
to the app without the registration page, logging them in using a dummy
backend.

The latter doesn't depend on the former; we can still fill in your full

This commit requires django_auth_ldap to be installed. On Debian

sudo apt-get install python-django-auth-ldap

pip install django_auth_ldap
django_auth_ldap depends on the "ldap" Python package, which should be
installed automatically on your system.

I figure we can start with 600s as a maximum age -- our threads do
many dozens of requests per minute, so I figure we'll get most of the
benefit of permanently persisting connections this way. I could also
be convinced to do just 60s, though the impact will likely to be less
visible on staging. 600s seems to be what Django originally had for
this parameter before they disabled it by default. See:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/django-developers/rH0QQP7tI6w/yBusiFTNBR4J
for discussion, which also suggests we might have issues with
runserver that we should watch out for.
