It's fairly difficult to debug tests that use
EventsRegisterTest.do_test, and when they fail on
Travis, it's particularly challengning. Now we make
the main diff less noisy, and we also include
the events that were applied.
This reverts commit ba8dc62132.
As best I can tell, the old configuration was correct for what Django
wanted. Further testing is required, but this at least brings
.tx/config to match the actual filenames; I think our Chinese
translations have been broken until now.
This endpoint is part of the old tutorial, which we've removed, and
has some security downsides as well.
This includes a minor refactoring of the tests.
Sort of a hacky hammer, but
* The original design of the analytics system mistakenly attempted to play
nicely with non-UTC datetimes.
* Timezone errors are really hard to find and debug, and don't jump out that
easily when reading code.
I don't know of any outstanding errors, but putting a few "assert this
timezone is in UTC" around will hopefully reduce the chance that there are
any current or future timezone errors.
Note that none of these functions are called outside of the analytics code
(and tests). This commit also doesn't change any current behavior, assuming
a database where all datetimes have been being stored in UTC.
Previously, entering a non-UTC end time for a daily stat would give you
incorrect results. This is because:
* All daily stats are collected at and have end_times in the database in
midnight UTC.
* For daily stats, time_range returns a list of datetimes at midnight in the
timezone of its end argument. These datetimes are the only ones we look
for when looking for rows corresponding to the stat in the database.
* Previously, we passed on the end argument from the API to time_range,
without modification.
The logic to apply events to page_params['unread_msgs'] was
complicated due to the aggregated data structures that we pass
down to the client.
Now we defer the aggregation logic until after we apply the
events. This leads to some simplifications in that codepath,
as well as some performance enhancements.
The intermediate data structure has sets and dictionaries that
generally are keyed by message_id, so most message-related
updates are O(1) in nature.
Also, by waiting to compute the counts until the end, it's a
bit less messy to try to keep track of increments/decrements.
Instead, we just update the dictionaries and sets during the
event-apply phase.
This change also fixes some corner cases:
* We now respect mutes when updating counts.
* For message updates, instead of bluntly updating
the whole topic bucket, we update individual
message ids.
Unfortunately, this change doesn't seem to address the pesky
test that fails sporadically on Travis, related to mention
updates. It will change the symptom, slightly, though.
Instead of using `unified_reactions` mapping start using
`name_to_codepoint` mapping for converting emoji name to
codepoints. We were using `unified_reactions` mapping
because prior to emoji web PR `name_to_codepoint` mapping
was generated using emoji_map.json which contained old
codepoints but for reactions new codepoints were required
to display them using sprite sheets.
Create a new custom email backend which would automatically
logs the emails that are send in the dev environment as
well as print a friendly message in console to visit /emails
for accessing all the emails that are sent in dev environment.
Since django.core.mail.backends.console.EmailBackend is no longer
userd emails would not be printed to the console anymore.
We now do push notifications and missed message emails
for offline users who are subscribed to the stream for
a message that has been edited, but we short circuit
the offline-notification logic for any user who presumably
would have already received a notification on the original
message.
This effectively boils down to sending notifications to newly
mentioned users. The motivating use case here is that you
forget to mention somebody in a message, and then you edit
the message to mention the person. If they are offline, they
will now get pushed notifications and missed message emails,
with some minor caveats.
We try to mostly use the same techniques here as the
send-message code path, and we share common code with the
send-message path once we get to the Tornado layer and call
maybe_enqueue_notifications.
The major places where we differ are in a function called
maybe_enqueue_notifications_for_message_update, and the top
of that function short circuits a bunch of cases where we
can mostly assume that the original message had an offline
notification.
We can expect a couple changes in the future:
* Requirements may change here, and it might make sense
to send offline notifications on the update side even
in circumstances where the original message had a
notification.
* We may track more notifications in a DB model, which
may simplify our short-circuit logic.
In the view/action layer, we already had two separate codepaths
for send-message and update-message, but this mostly echoes
what the send-message path does in terms of collecting data
about recipients.
Postgres doesn't like them, we don't have an obvious way to escape
them, and they tend to be sent by buggy tools where it'd be better for
the user to get an error.
This fixes a 500 we were getting occasionally.
