The previous steps for standing up a new host were somewhat manual.
This further scripts the process, by using the AWS CLI to start the
instance, and pass it a "user data" script to provision itself upon
boot. This results in a hands-off provisioning process which
completes in 5min.
Additional settings are required for `~/.zulip-install-server.conf`.
It is not suited for all roles, as it assumes one instance type and
security group value. Additionally, not all of the post-provision
process is currently automated -- Nagios SSH key verification, for
instance, is still a manual step. There are also additional steps for
database or frontend servers. Regardless, this is a move toward
automated provisioning.
As of commit 87e72ac8e2 (#15267), we
need to be an owner for some of the tested functionality, not just an
administrator.

Zulip converts :) to the 1F642 Unicode emoji and promotes the same emoji
in the popular section of the emoji picker.
Previously Zulip has labeled 1F642 as "slight smile". While that name
conforms to the Unicode standard (which describes the code point as
SLIGHTLY SMILING FACE), it didn't match our use case of the emoji.
If a user types :) or selects the first smile in the emoji picker they
probably mean to express a regular "smile" and not a "slight smile",
which raises the question why they are only smiling slightly.
This commit relabels 1F642 as 😄 and our previous 😄 263A as
:smiling_face:. Note that 263A looks different in our three supported
emoji sets, so it is not suited to be our "default smile".
This change does not require a migration since our emoji system stores
both unicode points and names and handles name changes transparently.
This adds support for a "spoiler" syntax in Zulip's markdown, which
can be used to hide content that one doesn't want to be immediately
visible without a click.
We use our own spoiler block syntax inspired by Zulip's existing quote
and math block markdown extensions, rather than requiring a token on
every line, as is present in some other markdown spoiler
implementations.
Fixes#5802.

Fixes#2665.
Regenerated by tabbott with `lint --fix` after a rebase and change in
parameters.
Note from tabbott: In a few cases, this converts technical debt in the
form of unsorted imports into different technical debt in the form of
our largest files having very long, ugly import sequences at the
start. I expect this change will increase pressure for us to split
those files, which isn't a bad thing.

The major PROVISION_VERSION bump would not be needed, but it was
missing in commit 5ab62a3514 (#14834),
so I’m doing it here.

We now just have two modes for setting up a dev/test
database. This makes it easy to see these things
side-by-side, when you're trying to understand how
the two different databases get built:
# dev:
USERNAME=zulip
DBNAME=zulip
STATUS_FILE_NAME=migration_status_dev
# test:
USERNAME=zulip_test
DBNAME=zulip_test
STATUS_FILE_NAME=migration_status_test
And then we make it more explicit the things that
are common between dev and test (which are
important things to understand when troubleshooting
provision-related glitches):
SEARCH_PATH=zulip,public
PASSWORD=$("$(dirname "$0")/../../scripts/get-django-setting" LOCAL_DATABASE_PASSWORD)
DBNAME_BASE=${DBNAME}_base
We lose some "generality" here, but passing in arbitrary
combinations of username/dbname/status_file to the script
would cause chaos for our digest checks, and all the different
template/base databases could cause confusion too.
Since in travis we don't have root access so we used to add different
srv path. As now we shifted our production suites to Circle CI
we don't need that code so removed it.
Also we used a hacky code in commit-lint-message for travis which is
now of no use.
Previously, we added support for 'none', 'plain' and 'noop' and a
function `lang = remap_language(lang)`. This also had the potential
to encourage adding more remappings- something that we deliberatly
want to keep to a minimum.
For context, Anders K doesn't want us to keep any remapping (only
keeping 'text' which is the default no-op lexer that pygments has)
and Tim wants to keep 'plain' and 'text'. We should only document
and advertise 'text'.
Avatar images for bots used by the tool to generate integration
documentation screenshots are pre-generated and committed to the repository.
The `generate-integration-docs-screenshot` tool now uses these images,
instead of trying to create these avatar images on the fly.
Also, deleted the unused `create_png_from_svg` function.
So `generate-fixtures` only ever did 9 lines of code (really
3 lines of actual code) in its normal mode of operation.
But it was cluttered with lots of stuff that really only
happened when you called it with the `-force` option, which
was only invoked by `rebuild-test-database`.
Now we inline most of the code into `rebuild-test-database`.
And now `generate-fixtures` is simple (and doesn't support
a `-force` flag.
Importing cairosvg in fails in production, because `libgtk-3-dev` is not
available. This commit moves the import for `cairosvg` into the function
where it is used. This code will soon be moved into a separate script that
will not be run on production.
We no longer need to maintain duplicate code
related to where we set up the emoji
cache directory.
And we no longer need two extra steps for
people doing advanced (i.e. manual) setup.
There was no clear benefit to having provision
build the cache directory for `build_emoji`,
when it was easy to make `build_emoji` more
self-sufficient. The `build_emoji` tool
was already importing the library that has
`run_as_root`, and it was already responsible
for 99% of the create-directory kind of tasks.
(We always call `build_emoji` unconditionally from
`provision`, so there's no rationale in terms
of avoiding startup time or something.)
ASIDE:
Its not completely clear to me why we need
to put this directory in "/srv", instead of
somewhere more local (like we already do for
Travis), but maybe it's just to be like
its siblings in "/srv":
node_modules
yarn.lock
zulip-emoji-cache
zulip-npm-cache
zulip-py3-venv
zulip-thumbor-venv
zulip-venv-cache
zulip-yarn
I guess the caches that we keep in var are
dev-only, although I think some of what's under
`zulip-emoji-cache` is also dev-only in nature?
./var/webpack-cache
./var/mypy-cache
In `docs/subsystems/emoji.md` we say this:
```
The `build_emoji` tool generates the set of files under
`static/generated/emoji` (or really, it generates the
`/srv/zulip-emoji-cache/<sha1>/emoji` tree, and
`static/generated/emoji` is a symlink to that tree;we do this in
order to cache old versions to make provisioning and production
deployments super fast in the common case that we haven't changed the
emoji tooling). [...]
```
I don't really understand that rationale for the development
case, since `static/generated` is as much ignored by `git` as
'/srv' is, without the complications of needing `sudo` to create it.
And in production, I'm not sure how much time we're really saving,
as it takes me about 1.4s to fully rebuild the cache in dev, not to
mention we're taking on upgrade risk by sharing files between versions.
So, `source_emoji_dump` is not the greatest variable
name, but at least we now define it relative to its
parent instead of the `.success-stamp` file. (And
then `success_stamp` is just another join.)
For upgrade-zulip-from-git to work, we need to be able to run
update-prod-static on production systems, which means provision code
like this cairosvg logic needs to be there for now.
When creating a webhook integration or creating a new one, it is a pain to
create or update the screenshots in the documentation. This commit adds a
tool that can trigger a sample notification for the webhook using a fixture,
that is likely already written for the tests.
Currently, the developer needs to take a screenshot manually, but this could
be automated using puppeteer or something like that.
Also, the tool does not support webhooks with basic auth, and only supports
webhooks that use json fixtures. These can be fixed in subsequent commits.
Add sgrep (sgrep.dev) to tooling and include simple rule as
proof of concept. Included rule detects use of old django render
function.
Also added a rule that looks for if-else statements where both
code paths are identical.
This gives them cache-compatible URLs, and also avoids some extra
copies of the sprite sheet images.
