We create a path structure in the from:
`/var/<uuid>/test-backend/run_1234567/worker_N/`
A settings attribute, `TEST_WORKER_DIR`, was created as a worker's
directory for a given `test-backend` run's file storage. The
appropirate path is created in `setup_test_environment`, while each
workers subdirectory is created within `init_worker`.
This allows a test class to write to `settings.TEST_WORKER_DIR`,
populating the appropirate directory of a given worker. Also
providing the long-term approach to clean up filesystem access
in the backend unit tests.
We don’t need a hacked copy anymore. We run the installed version out
of node_modules in development, and a Webpack-bundled version of that
in production.

In each url of urls.py, if we want to mark an endpoint as being
intentionally undocumented, then in the kwargs instead of directly
mapping like 'METHOD': 'zerver.views.package.foo', we can provide
a tag called 'intentionally_undocumented' and map like:
'METHOD': ('zerver.views.package.foo', {'intentionally_undocumented'}).
If an endpoint is marked as intentionally undocumented, but we find
some OpenAPI documentation for it then we'll throw an error, in which
case either the 'intentionally_undocumented' tag should be removed or
the faulty documentation should be removed.
This will allow us to mark a REQ variable as intentionally
undocumented. With this, we can remove some of the endpoints marked
as "buggy" even though they're not actually buggy, we just needed to
specify certain parameters as intentionally undocumented (e.g. the
stream_id for the /users/me/subscriptions/muted_topics endpoint.)
Any REQ variable with intentionally_undocumentated set to True
will not be added to the arguments_map data structure.
For some of the other "buggy" endpoints, we would want to mark the
entire endpoint as being undocumented intentionally via. the urls.py
file.
As of commit cff40c557b (#9300), these
files are no longer served directly to the browser. Disentangle them
from the static asset pipeline so we can refactor it without worrying
about them.
This has the side effect of eliminating the accidental duplication of
translation data via hash-naming in our release tarballs.
This reverts commit b546391f0b (#1148).

It appears not to have been useful and makes it marginally harder to
reason about how module resolution works. Paths to static content in
node_modules should be resolved through Webpack instead.
(This node_modules symlink was originally created in the pre-webpack world
where all of our static asset paths were based in static/.)

It's common for a broken settings.py file to result in Django not
starting, thus never writing to `/var/log/zulip/errors.log`. Such
behavior can be discouraging when the server 500s without a traceback
to accompany it. To fix this, we simply catch any exceptions in
django.setup(), if raised, and log the exception appropriately.
Comments tweaked by tabbott.
Closes: #7032.
Previously, our Github authentication backend just used the user's
primary email address associated with GitHub, which was a reasonable
default, but quite annoying for users who have several email addresses
associated with their GitHub account.
We fix this, by adding a new screen where users can select which of
their (verified) GitHub email addresses to use for authentication.
This is implemented using the "partial" feature of the
python-social-auth pipeline system.
Each email is displayed as a button. Clicking on that button chooses
the email. The email value is stored in a hidden input above the
button. The `primary_email` is displayed on top followed by
`verified_non_primary_emails`. Backend name is also passed as
`backend` to the template, which in our case is GitHub.
Fixes#9876.
This fixes an issue that caused LDAP synchronization to fail for
avatars. The problem occurred due to the lack of a 'name' attribute
on the BytesIO object that we pass to the upload backend (which is
only used in the S3 backend for computing Content-Type).
Fixes#12411.
The `AUTH_LDAP_ALWAYS_UPDATE_USER` is `True` by default, and this would sync the
attributes defined in the `AUTH_LDAP_USER_ATTR_MAP` to the user profile. But,
the default code in `django-auth-ldap` would work correctly only for `full_name`
field. This commit disables the setting by default, in favour of using the
`sync_ldap_user_data` script as a cron job.
Since positional arguments are interpreted differently by different
backends in Django's authentication backend system, it’s safer to
disallow them.
This had been the motivation for previously declaring the parameters
with default values when we were on Python 2, but that was not super
effective because Python has no rule against positional default
arguments and that convention for our authentication backends was
solely enforced by code review.

This commit adds a new developer tool: The "integrations dev panel"
which will serve as a replacement for the send_webhook_fixture_message
management command as a way to test integrations with much greater ease.
Jitsi Meet is the correct name for the product we integrate with. There is
one other reference to Jitsi, but it's in the db and will require a
migration.
This makes the implementation of `get_realm` consistent with its
declared return type of `Realm` rather than `Optional[Realm]`.

Fixes#12132.
Realm setting to disable avatar changes is already present.
The `AVATAR_CHANGES_DISABLED` setting now follows the same
2-setting model as `NAME_CHANGES_DISABLED`.
The github-services model for how GitHub would send requests to this
legacy integration is no longer available since earlier in 2019.
Removing this integration also allows us to finally remove
authenticated_api_view, the legacy authentication model from 2013 that
had been used for this integration (and other features long since
upgraded).
A few functions that were used by the Beanstalk webhook are moved into
that webhook's implementation directly.
An endpoint was created in zerver/views. Basic rate-limiting was
implemented using RealmAuditLog. The idea here is to simply log each
export event as a realm_exported event. The number of events
occurring in the time delta is checked to ensure that the weekly
limit is not exceeded.
The event is published to the 'deferred_work' queue processor to
prevent the export process from being killed after 60s.
Upon completion of the export the realm admin(s) are notified.
The main point here is that you should use a symlink rather than
changing it, since it's more maintenance work to update our nginx
configuration to use an alternative path than to just create a
symbolic link.
Fixes#12157.
Previously, we had some expensive-to-calculate keys in
zulip_default_context, especially around enabled authentication
backends, which in total were a significant contributor to the
performance of various logged-out pages. Now, these keys are only
computed for the login/registration pages where they are needed.
This is a moderate performance optimization for the loading time of
many logged-out pages.
Closes#11929.
These previously lived in Optional settings, which generally caused
users to not read it.
(Also do a bit of reorganization of the "optional settings" area).
