This allows the frontend to fetch data on the subscribers list (etc.)
for streams where the user has never been subscribed, making it
possible to implement UI showing details like subscribe counts on the
subscriptions page.
This is likely a performance regression for very large teams with
large numbers of streams; we'll want to do some testing to determine
the impact (and thus whether we should make this feature only fully
enabled for larger realms).
There were a bunch of authorization and well-formedness checks in
zerver.lib.actions.do_update_message that I moved to
zerver.views.messages.update_message_backend.
Reason: by convention, functions in actions.py complete their actions;
error checking should be done outside the file when possible.
Fixes: #1150.
This is controlled through the admin tab and a new field in the Realms table.
Notes:
* The admin tab setting takes a value in minutes, whereas the backend stores it
in seconds.
* This setting is unused when allow_message_editing is false.
* There is some generosity in how the limit is enforced. For instance, if the
user sees the hovering edit button, we ensure they have at least 5 seconds to
click it, and if the user gets to the message edit form, we ensure they have
at least 10 seconds to make the edit, by relaxing the limit.
* This commit also includes a countdown timer in the message edit form.
Resolves#903.
Correctly encode and decode strings in convert_html_to_markdown.
It wasn't possible to use universal_newlines=True since
Popen.communicate doesn't encode/decode strings correctly on
python 2.
Add methods assert_equals_response and assert_in_response to
AuthedTestCase. These methods make it convenient to check if
a string equals the contents of an HttpResponse's body or if a
string is a substring of the contents of an HttpResponse's body.
response.content is binary data, but code usually assumes it to
be text. Fix this by decoding response.content where required.
Don't do this in tests yet.
This is controlled through the admin tab and a new field in the Realms
table. This mirrors the behavior of the old hardcoded setting
feature_flags.disable_message_editing. Partially resolves#903.
This reverts commit f1f48f305e.
The use of sklearn unfortunately caused a substantial slowdown to the
Zulip provisioning process, which didn't seem worth it for a
relatively minor feature.
Originally this cache was used to transmit data from Django to Tornado
(and also for general message caching purposes), but now nothing
actually reads from this cache, so we can eliminate it.
Apparently, the message cache we were filling was completely useless
and unused, and furthermore, the cache we were filling as part of
restarting the server was also totally useless, since it didn't have
the messages users would be requesting.
The functions truncate_content, truncate_body and truncate_topic
are only meant to be used on text strings. So change its
parameter types from AnyStr to text_type.
Many stubs in xml.etree.ElementTree use Union[str, bytes] as
return type. Mypy wants us to correctly handle each case. This
is correct, but not useful for us since we know that we'll always
get str. So force the return value to text_type, to supress mypy
errors.
Also encode/decode strings appropriately when using api_keys to generate
basic auth header.
Also fix clashing annotations in zerver/tests/test_external.py.
* Add Optional where required.
* Set type of req_redis_key as `(text_type) -> text_type` for consistency.
Almost all our cache keys and redis keys use this signature.
For a long time, rest_dispatch has had this hack where we have to
create a copy of it in each views file using it, in order to directly
access the globals list in that file. This removes that hack, instead
making rest_dispatch just use Django's import_string to access the
target method to use.
[tweaked and reorganized from acrefoot's original branch in various
ways by tabbott]
If a user's session cookie expired, the next REST API request their
browser did would go into the json_unauthorized code path. This
returned a response with a WWW-Authenticate tag for HTTP Basic Auth
(since that's what the REST API uses), even for /json requests which
should only be authenticated using session auth.
We fix this by explicitly passing the desired WWW-Authenticate state.
Fixes: #800.
After annotating rate_limiter.rules, mypy complained that rules does
not support cmp. So use key to customize sort instead of cmp.
Python docs also recommend using key over cmp.
zerver.lib.initial_password.initial_password is supposed to return an
Optional[text_type], but it returns an Optional[binary_type] instead.
Encode the return value to make sure it returns an Optional[text_type].
Add a class 'BaseHandler' and make it a base class of OuterHandler,
QuoteHandler and CodeHandler. This will help annotate some functions
and improve type checking.
get_display_recipient's annotation clashes with other wrong annotations.
Fix those wrong annotations.
Since get_display_recipient returns a Union, use isinstance checks and
casts to make mypy checks succeed.
generate_random_token used to return a value of type six.binary_type
and its return type was annotated as `str`. This commit fixes that
by making it return a value of type `six.text_type` and updating
the annotation accordingly.
Also fix clashing annnotations.
Change choices of UserProfile.avatar_sources and UserProfile.tutorial_status
from str literals to unicode literals. This is done because these fields
are CharFields, which are of type `six.text_type`. So the set of values
which they can take should also be of the type `six.text_type`.
Also fix clashing annotations.
Change `str` to `text_type` in annotations in zerver/models.py
related to realm emoji and realm filters.
Also fix clashing annotations in zerver/lib/bugdown/__init__.py.
Due to a cyclic dependency issue, functions having models as parameters
were annotated as Any.
That issue is fixed by importing models inside an `if False:` block,
so that mypy sees them but they are not imported at runtime.
In update_user_profile_caches, the return type in annotation was
marked as Any. Change that to None because, nothing is being returned
in that function.
This changes the type annotations for the cache keys in Zulip to be
consistently text_type, and updates the annotations for values that
are used as cache keys across the codebase.
str_utils.py has functions for converting strings from one type to
another. It also has a TypeVar called NonBinaryStr, which is like AnyStr
except that it doesn't allow bytes.
Previously, uploaded files were served:
* With S3UploadBackend, via get_uploaded_file (redirects to S3)
* With LocalUploadBackend in production, via nginx directly
* With LocalUploadBackend in development, via Django's static file server
This changes that last case to use get_uploaded_file in development,
which is a key step towards being able to do proper access control
authorization.
Does not affect production.
This has no functional changes; we just replace the old hacky
assignment of functions with assignment of the upload backend to a
variable.
I'm not totally happy with this, because we end up having to copy the
type annotations of the three methods 4 times each, but this should
make it a lot easier to test the (non-default-in-tests) S3 backend
using end-to-end tests, which would have caught
13bac1cc2a.
I expect we'll iterate on the interface over time; ideally, I'd like
all the code that checks LOCAL_UPLOADS_DIR to be inside upload.py, and
primarily in these classes.
Calling open() with mode 'w' or 'a' will create a file if it doesn't exist,
while mode 'r' will cause an exception. This can be easily tested with:
python -c 'open("test.tmp", "w")'
ls test.tmp
Also, fixed a a small type annotation in users.py because email must
be a string because emails don't support UTF-8 at this time (according
a comment in gravatar_hash in avatar.py).
Currently this uses a Union type for connection_id; we need to figure
out what actually sets that and what its type is and fix that later
(see https://github.com/zulip/zulip/issues/896).
Also, fixed up the annotations for tornadoviews to better align with
how narrows was defined as `Iterable[Sequence[str]]` rather than
`List[Tuple[str, str]]`.
Had to add some "type: ignore" because the pattern used in match
doesn't affect the type returned. A fix for this issue has been pushed
to typeshed - https://github.com/python/typeshed/pull/244
These ones don't fix any bugs, because the mutable arg is never passed
outside of the callable or mutated. But it's good practice to not use
them in case those invariants are changed in the future.
