This commit enables user to authenticate with any attribute set in
AUTH_LDAP_USER_SEARCH given that LDAP_EMAIL_ATTR is set to an email
attributes in the ldap server. Thus email and username can be
completely unrelated.
With some tweaks by tabbott to squash in the documentation and make it
work on older servers.
Previously, we didn't pass customized HTTP_HOST headers when making
network requests. As we move towards a world where everything is on a
subdomain, we'll want to start doing that.
The vast majority of our test code is written to interact with the
default "zulip" realm, which has a subdomain of "zulip". While
probably longer-term, we'll wish this was the root domain, for now, we
need to make our HTTP requests match what is expected by the test
code.
This commit almost certainly introduces some weird bugs where code was
expecting a different subdomain but the tests doesn't fail yet. It's
not clear how to find all of these, but I've done some grepping.
Previously, Zulip's server logs would not show which user or client
was involved in login or user registration actions, which made
debugging more annoying than it needed to be.
This should significantly improve the user experience for new users
signing up with GitHub/Google auth. It comes complete with tests for
the various cases. Further work may be needed for LDAP to not prompt
for a password, however.
Fixes#886.
This allows us to go to Registration form directly. This behaviour is
similar to what we follow in GitHub oAuth. Before this, in registration
flow if an account was not found, user was asked if they wanted to go to
registration flow. This confirmation behavior is followed for login
oauth path.
This error isn't saying that any kind of authentication or
authorization failed -- it's just a validation error like
any other validation error in the values the user is asking to
set. The thought of authentication comes into it only because
the setting happens to be *about* authentication.
Fix the error to look like the other validation errors around it,
rather than give a 403 HTTP status code and a "reason" field that
mimics the "reason" fields in `api_fetch_api_key`.
Currently we only pass headers in the first client_get call but
sometimes the effective request which reaches the view is through
a later call to the client_get in this function. Due to which
headers are not passed.
These handlers will kick into action when is_signup is False. In case
the account exists, the user will be logged in, otherwise, user will
be asked if they want to proceed to registration.
This fixes most cases where we were assigning a user to
the var email and then calling get_user_profile_by_email with
that var.
(This was fixed mostly with a script.)
The example_user() function is specifically designed for
AARON, hamlet, cordelia, and friends, and it allows a concise
way of using their built-in user profiles. Eventually, the
widespread use of example_user() should help us with refactorings
such as moving the tests users out of the "zulip.com" realm
and deprecating get_user_profile_by_email.
Specifically, this makes easily available to the desktop and mobile
apps data on the server's configuration, including important details
like the realm icon, name, and description.
It deprecates /api/v1/get_auth_backends.
This makes it possible for the Zulip mobile apps to use the normal web
authentication/Oauth flows, so that they can support GitHub, Google,
and other authentication methods we support on the backend, without
needing to write significant custom mobile-app-side code for each
authentication backend.
This PR only provides support for Google auth; a bit more refactoring
would be needed to support this for the GitHub/Social backends.
Modified by tabbott to use the mobile_auth_otp library to protect the
API key.
This completes a major redesign of the Zulip login and registration
pages, making them look much more slick and modern.
Major features include:
* Display of the realm name, description and icon on the login page
and registration pages in the subdomains case.
* Much slicker looking buttons and input fields.
* A new overall style for the exterior of these portico pages.
