The is_private flag is intended to be set if recipient type is
'private'(1) or 'huddle'(3), otherwise i.e if it is 'stream'(2), it
should be unset.
This commit adds a database index for the is_private flag (which we'll
need to use it). That index is used to reset the flag if it was
already set. The already set flags were due to a previous removal of
is_me_message flag for which the values were not cleared out.
For now, the is_private flag is always 0 since the really hard part of
this migration is clearing the unspecified previous state; future
commits will fully implement it actually doing something.
History: Migration rewritten significantly by tabbott to ensure it
runs in only 3 minutes on chat.zulip.org. A key detail in making that
work was to ensure that we use the new index for the queries to find
rows to update (which currently requires the `order_by` and `limit`
clauses).
As part of our effort to change the data model away from each user
having a single API key, we're eliminating the couple requests that
were made from Django to Tornado (as part of a /register or home
request) where we used the user's API key grabbed from the database
for authentication.
Instead, we use the (already existing) internal_notify_view
authentication mechanism, which uses the SHARED_SECRET setting for
security, for these requests, and just fetch the user object using
get_user_profile_by_id directly.
Tweaked by Yago to include the new /api/v1/events/internal endpoint in
the exempt_patterns list in test_helpers, since it's an endpoint we call
through Tornado. Also added a couple missing return type annotations.
It appears Luke's Dropbox folder/shared link that used to host some
tsearch_extras binaries was removed. It wasn't very high-value
regardless, because most of the platforms involved are deprecated, the
ones that don't generally have a PPA, and building from source is
pretty easy. So, we just remove these options from the documentation.
While we're at it, make clear we only support direct installation on
Ubuntu LTS.
Fixes#9863.
This adds a new settings, SOCIAL_AUTH_SUBDOMAIN, which specifies which
domain should be used for GitHub auth and other python-social-auth
backends.
If one is running a single-realm Zulip server like chat.zulip.org, one
doesn't need to use this setting, but for multi-realm servers using
social auth, this fixes an annoying bug where the session cookie that
python-social-auth sets early in the auth process on the root domain
ends up masking the session cookie that would have been used to
determine a user is logged in. The end result was that logging in
with GitHub on one domain on a multi-realm server like zulipchat.com
would appear to log you out from all the others!
We fix this by moving python-social-auth to a separate subdomain.
Fixes: #9847.
As detailed in the documentation changes, this simplifies the
development workflow for doing UI work on the /stats pages.
The cost is a ~10% increase the time it takes to run `populate_db`,
which doesn't happen very often (and for most purposes manifests as a
1% increase in the time it takes to rebuild the database from scratch).
This saves about 400ms when running clean-unused-caches, basically by
calling its sub-rountines by import (rather than
`subprocess.check_call()`). The performance optimization seems well worth it.
Fixes#9766.
I don't think this is exactly the right place to document this, but
I'm not sure there's a better one without some restructuring this page
in general (which would probably have value).
Fixes#8769.
I only renamed references that I thought were absolutely necessary
and only if the resulting sentence structure wasn't awkward.
If the renaming resulted in awkward structure, I replaced the term
"webhook" with "integration" (but only in some very obvious cases).
Fixes#9500.
This moves the documentation for this feature out of
prod_settings_template.py, so that we can edit it more easily.
We also add a bucket policy, which is part of what one would want to
use this in production.
This addresses much, but not all, of #9361.
