This helps automatically detect a common issue where users try to use
the Vagrant development environment on windows without administrator
permissions, which results in errors trying to create symlinks.
This renames the old `emoji_dump.py` to `build_emoji`, removing the
old shell essentially empty shell script. `emoji_dump.py` was always
a weird name, and this makes it a bit easier to read the code for this
system.
(Most of this work was done by acrefoot in an earlier branch.
I took over the branch to fix casper tests that were broken during
the upgrade (which were fixed in a different commit). I also
made most of the changes to run-casper.)
This also upgrades phantomjs to 2.1.7.
The huge structural change here is that we no longer vendor casperjs
or download phantomjs with our own script. Instead, we just use
casperjs and phantomjs from npm, via package.json.
Another thing that we do now is run casperjs tests individually, so
that we don't get strange test flakes from test interactions. (Tests
can still influence each other in terms of changing data, since we
don't yet have code to clear the test database in between tests.)
A lot of this diff is just removing files and obsolete configurations.
The main new piece is in package.json, which causes npm to install the
new version.
Also, run-casper now runs files individually, as mentioned above.
We had vendored casperjs in the past. I didn't bring over any of our
changes. Some of the changes were performance-related (primarily
5fd58cf249), so the upgraded version may
be slower in some instances. (I didn't do much measurement of that,
since most of our slowness when running tests is about the setup
environment, not casper itself.) Any bug fixes that we may have
implemented in the past were either magically fixed by changes to
casper itself or by improvements we have made in the tests themselves
over the years.
Tim tested the Casper suite on his machine and running the full Casper
test suite is faster than it was before this change (1m30 vs. 1m50),
so we're at least not regressing overall performance.
When running tools/provision.py in python3 mode, we used to create
a python2 venv called zulip-py2-twisted-venv. This was needed because
Zulip couldn't run tools/run-dev.py in python3. So we switched to
this virtualenv when running tools/run-dev.py.
Now that Zulip can run tools/run-dev.py in python3, we don't need
to create this virtualenv anymore.
generate-secrets.py now requires --development for development environment
setup or --production for production environment setup (and one of these
options is mandatory).
This solves the problem that it was somewhat easy to accidentally run
generate-secrets.py without the `-d` option while doing manual development
environment setup.
Fixes: #1911.
A bug in the node_cache.py code resulted in the node_modules symlink
in Zulip development environments being incorrectly owned by root.
This causes that bug to be fixed the next time a user provisions.
NVM takes a specific node version and installs the node package and
a corresponding compatible npm package.
We use it in a somewhat hackish way to install node/npm globally with
a pinned version, since that's how we actually want to consume node in
our development environment.
Other details:
- Travis CI now is configured to use the version of node installed by
provision; the easiest way to do this was to sabotage the existing node
installation.
- jsdom is upgraded to a current version, which both requires recent
node and also is required for the tests to pass with recent node.
This fixes running the node tests on Xenial.
Fixes#1498.

This adds support for using VMWare Fusion as the Vagrant provider,
which has better performance than Virtualbox at the price of being
nonfree (in all senses of the term).
We haven't done solid benchmarking as to how much faster it is than
the Virtualbox provider.
test-js-with-node: Move istanbul test coverage to var/node-coverage.
This commit moves js test coverage generated through istanbul to
var/node-coverage.
This reverts commit 3f95e567c1.
Apparently `apt-add-repository` fails periodically in CI. I suspect
this is some sort of silly networking problem, but given that all
we're saving is a few lines of code, the old version was better if
this fails basically ever.
`npm install` fails nondeterministically occasionally, and this makes
such failures likely to be automatically resolved in most cases by
simple retrying.
Factor out the code in tools/provision.py which installs a python2
and python3 venv into a module (tools/setup/setup_venvs.py) which
can also be used as a script.
Twisted is not python 3 compatible. So for now create a python2
venv and install twisted in it when running provision.py in python3
mode and use twisted from the python2 venv.
tools/provision.py: Create directory var/uploads.
zproject/local_settings_template.py: Update Upload dir to var/uploads.
zproject/dev_settings.py: Update upload dir to var/uploads.
The purpose of this is to move a lot of the log and other generated
files used by the Zulip development environment into a consistent
hierarchy.
We also need to create this in tools/build-release-tarball as well,
since that runs a development environment out of a temporary
directory.
When provision.py is run using python 2, retain original behavior
of creating a python 2 venv using requirements/py2_dev.txt and
creating a python 3 venv using requirements/mypy.txt.
When provision.py is run using python 3, install a single python 3
venv with requirements/py3_dev.txt.
