This simplifies the RDS installation process to avoid awkwardly
requiring running the installer twice, and also is significantly more
robust in handling issues around rerunning the installer.
Finally, the answer for whether dictionaries are missing is available
to Django for future use in warnings/etc. around full-text search not
being great with this configuration, should they be required.
This commit finishes adding end-to-end support for the install script
on Debian Buster (making it production ready). Some support for this
was already added in prior commits such as
99414e2d96.
We plan to revert the postgres hunks of this once we've built
tsearch_extras for our packagecloud archive.
Fixes#9828.
Now that we have the run_as_root helper function, we don't need to
install sudo to run Zulip in production
This reverts commit a7d7d181ea.
Fixes#10036.
On usage errors (except --help), write usage message to stderr and
exit with nonzero status.
Forbid setting the hostname and email to the example values. Those
are specifically checked for and would fail later.

Since yarn has a package.json conveniently available, we can parse
that with jq, saving the expensive operation of starting up yarn.
This saves ~300ms in a no-op provision.
This fixes an actual user-facing issue in our mobile push
notifications documentation (where we were incorrectly failing to
quote the argument to `./manage.py register_server` making it not
work), as well as preventing future similar issues from occurring
again via a linter rule.
This commit allows specifying Subject Alternative Names to issue certs
for multiple domains using certbot. The first name passed to certbot-auto
becomes the common name for the certificate; common name and the other
names are then added to the SAN field. All of these arguments are now
positional. Also read the following for the certbot syntax reference:

By far the dominant cause of errors when installing apt packages is
not having the Universe repository enabled in Ubuntu bionic (this
seems to have started happening a lot recently; I wonder if Ubuntu
changed the defaults for new server installs or something?).
In any case, providing that suggestion in the error output should help
reduce these a lot.

We use it to drop privileges from root to other users in the installer
process (which ideally, we would remove, but it will take some
annoying refactoring).
This should generally be safe to do, since the default sudo
permissions only allow root to use it anyway.
See https://github.com/zulip/zulip/issues/10036 for the follow-up
issue of removing the need to do this.
Previously, we were having issues installing on Debian Stretch with
non-English locales, because `locale-gen` actually doesn't take a
locale as an argument (and thus `locale-gen en_US.UTF-8` did nothing).
We should instead be calling localedef directly.
Thanks to Tom Daff for debugging this.
Fixes#10629.
For building Zulip in an environment where a custom CA certificate is
required to access the public Internet, one needs to be able to
specify that CA certificate for all network access done by the Zulip
installer/build process. This change allows configuring that via the
environment.
Apparently, perl at least expects LANG, LANGUAGE, and LC_ALL to be
consistent, and thus apt spits out a bunch of warnings if these are
different. So if we're forcing LC_ALL in these installer/upgrade
script blocks, we should force the rest too.
I believe this fixes the remaining locale part of #9946.
This commits adds the necessary puppet configuration and
installer/upgrade code for installing and managing the thumbor service
in production. This configuration is gated by the 'thumbor.pp'
manifest being enabled (which is not yet the default), and so this
commit should have no effect in a default Zulip production environment
(or in the long term, in any Zulip production server that isn't using
thumbor).
Credit for this effort is shared by @TigorC (who initiated the work on
this project), @joshland (who did a great deal of work on this and got
it working during PyCon 2017) and @adnrs96, who completed the work.
The docker installer configuration incorrectly had has_appserver set
to 0; this meant that (A) the docker-zulip code needed to copy the
block of code in the installer for the `has_appserver` case into the
Dockerfile (unnecessarily), and (B) one couldn't use `install` from a
Git ref (because the static asset compiler didn't end up in the right
place).
It appears that docker-zulip tried to set this flag in their `install`
command line, but the construction inside `install` meant that didn't
work.
It wasn't obvious reading this message that you can perfectly well
bring your own SSL/TLS certificate; unless you read quite a bit
between the lines where we say "could not find", or followed the link
to the detailed docs, the message sounded like you had to either use
--certbot or --self-signed-cert.
So, explicitly mention the BYO option. Because the "complete chain"
requirement is a bit tricky, don't try to give instructions for it
in this message; just refer the reader to the docs.
Also, drop the logic to identify which of the files is missing; it
certainly makes the code more complex, and I think even the error
message is actually clearer when it just gives the complete list of
required files -- it's much more likely that the reader doesn't know
what's required than that they do and have missed one, and even then
it's easy for them to look for themselves.
The installation isn't really complete here, and wasn't even when this
was the only success case; the instructions we're giving are for the
next step in the installation.
These instructions don't say what to do in an actual use case for this
option, but decent instructions there will require having a concrete
use case in front of us and designing the flow for it. At this stage,
just say where we are in the normal flow, and an admin who's chosen to
go off that flow can figure out how they want to vary it from there.
This flips the experimental `--express` option to be the default.
We retain the old behavior, where the script exits before
`initialize-database`, as an option `--no-init-db`; it might be useful
in e.g. a migration scenario (from a Zulip install elsewhere, or
another chat system) where the admin wants to set up the database
separately.
The install instructions are adjusted to match, getting shorter by two
steps and a bunch of words. I think this opens up opportunities to
refactor the text to simplify things further, too, but leaving that
for another commit.
Also tweak the "production" test suite to match.
Kind of unfortunate because the `sudo` interface for running a command
is objectively better -- a list of arguments, rather than a string to
be re-parsed by the shell. But some bare-bones machine images lack
`sudo`, so this makes things a bit more portable.
We'll make this the normal behavior soon, once we're satisfied with
our arrangements for sending the admin straight to realm creation and
using the app without configuring email. The instructions in the docs
will also have to change accordingly, of course.
