The `notification_settings_null` field of the `client_capabilities`
parameter is, apparently unintentionally, required.
This is mostly harmless. However, if any _future_ fields are made
required, all existing clients using this parameter will break, and it
will be needlessly difficult for new clients to specify new
capabilities in a backwards-compatible way.
Attempt to stave that possibility off with warnings.
(No functional changes.)
This modifies get_cross_realm_dicts in zerver.lib.users to call
format_user_row. This is done to remove current and prevent future
inconsistencies between in the dictionary formats for get_raw_user_data
and get_cross_realm_dicts.
Implementation substantially rewritten by tabbott.
Fixes#13638.
This moves get_cross_realm_dicts (from zerver.lib.actions),
get_raw_user_data and get_custom_profile_field_values (from
zerver.lib.events) to zerver.lib.users.
Only the getter of the is_new_member property is added,
to the UserProfile class. This is done to deduplicate
action of checking whether a user is a new member or not.
This extracts the user_data inner function from get_raw_user_data as a
reusable function. We intend to reuse it for cross-realm user dicts.
A few changes were made while extracting it:
* Renaming the UserProfile argument to acting_user, so we can do loops
over a local user_profile variable.
* Moved it to zerver.lib.users, as that's a more appropriate home for
this function formatting data on users.
* Simplified the calling convention for passing custom profile fields
to reflect the fact that this function processes a single user (and
is expected to be called in a loop).
"Zulip Voyager" was a name invented during the Hack Week to open
source Zulip for what a single-system Zulip server might be called, as
a Star Trek pun on the code it was based on, "Zulip Enterprise".
At the time, we just needed a name quickly, but it was never a good
name, just a placeholder. This removes that placeholder name from
much of the codebase. A bit more work will be required to transition
the `zulip::voyager` Puppet class, as that has some migration work
involved.
These docstrings hadn't been properly updated in years, and bad an
awkward mix of a bad version of the user-facing documentation and
details that are no longer true (e.g. references to "Voyager").
(One important detail is that we have real documentation for this
system now).
Closes#13736.
zerver.lib.server_initialization.create_internal has precisely the same
code (you can copy-and-paste swap them, with one level of indentation
adjustment, without generating any diff) so they can be trivially
deduplicated.
zerver.lib.server_initialization.create_users has precisely the same
code (you can copy-and-paste swap them without generating any diff) so
they can be trivially deduplicated.
This doesn't change any behavior, the purpose of this is to make the
function identical to what we have in server_initialization.py so that
it can be deduplicated in follow-up commits.
In addition to making our schema check stricter, it also makes it
possible for us to extend check_events_dict to do additional
validation that's only expected for the full event object.
Now that we have the type situation of having anchor support passing a
string, this is a much more natural way to implement
use_first_unread_anchor.
We still support the old interface to avoid breaking compatibility
with legacy versions of the mobile apps.
A wart that has long been present inin Zulip's get_messages API is how
to request "the latest messages" in the API. Previously, the
recommendation was basically to pass anchor=10000000000000000 (for an
appropriately huge number). An accident of the server's implementation
meant that specific number of 0s was actually important to avoid a
buggy (or at least wasteful) value of found_newest=False if the query
had specified num_after=0 (since we didn't check).
This was the cause of the mobile issue
https://github.com/zulip/zulip-mobile/issues/3654.
The solution is to allow passing a special value of anchor='newest',
basically a special string-type value that the server can interpret as
meaning the user precisely just wants the most recent messages. We
also add an analogous anchor='oldest' or similar to avoid folks
needing to write a somewhat ugly anchor=0 for fetching the very first
messages.
We may want to also replace the use_first_unread_anchor argument to be
a "first_unread" value for the anchor parameter.
While it's not always ideal to make a value have a variable type like
this, in this case it seems like a really clean way to express the
idea of what the user is asking for in the API.
This fixes a bug where that clients using the legacy approach of a
"very large anchor" value with the intent to only get the most recent
messages would only get found_newest=True if they used the specific
value LARGER_THAN_MAX_MESSAGE_ID. Now any value at least that large
will work.
In upcoming commits, we plan to replace this with passing the string
"last", but it seems worth removing the buggy "special value" behavior
while we're touching this code.
This is required for the upcoming type behavior of the "anchor"
parameter.
This change is the minimal work required to have our OpenAPI code not
fail when checking a union-type value of this form. We'll likely want
to, in the future, do something nicer, but it'd require more extensive
infrastructure for parsing of OpenAPI data that it's worth with our
current approach (we may want to switch to using a library).
The proximal issue here is that in upcoming commits, we're going to
change the type of the `anchor` field in `get_messages_backend` to
support passing either an integer or a string.
Many of our tests using POSTRequestMock currently define a query
object that uses integer values for the integer fields we're going to
pass into it, e.g. {'num_after': 0}. That is the correct type for
that field in the Zulip API, before HTTP encoding turns it into a
string. However, because POSTRequestMock didn't use HTTP encoding at
all (which will convert the 0 into a '0'), it ended up passing an
integer to a function that can't possible receive one as an argument.
Ideally, we'd just get rid of POSTRequestMock, since it's a hack, and
just do real HTTP requests instead.
But since it's used in a lot of places making doing so somewhat
impractical, we can get past this issue by just making POSTRequestMock
convert integers to strings.
Using logging.info() rather than logger.info() meant that our
zulip.soft_deactivation logger configuration (which, in particular,
included not logging to the console) was not active on this log line,
resulting in the `manage.py soft_deactivate_users` cron job sending
emails every time it ran.
Fixes#13750.
In Django 2.0, request.user.is_authenticated stops supporting
`.is_authenticated()` and becomes just a property. In 1.11, it's a
CallableProperty (i.e. can be used either way), and we already use it
as a property in several other places, so we should just switch to
using it consistently now to get it off of our Django 2.x migration
checklist.
Previously, we didn't track opening and closing fences separately,
with led to bugs like not parsing a list that was immediately after
a quoted fence; we treated each ``` as a new fence.
This commit rewrites the function to maintain a stack of currently
open fences. If any of the parent fences is a code fence, we do not
insert a new line before a list.
We also add some test cases specifically to test this behavior with
complexly nested lists.
Fixes#13745.
Adding invited users to the notifications stream unconditionally isn't
a correct behaviour for guest users, where the previous behavior of
including the notifications stream no longer makes sense. Therefore,
while inviting a new user, the notifications stream is listed along
with other streams with a message "recieves notifications for new
streams" in order to distinguish it from other streams.
Fixes#13645.
The desktop otp flow (to be added in next commits) will want to generate
one-time tokens for the app that will allow it to obtain an
authenticated session. log_into_subdomain will be the endpoint to pass
the one-time token to. Currently it uses signed data as its input
"tokens", which is not compatible with the otp flow, which requires
simpler (and fixed-length) token. Thus the correct scheme to use is to
store the authenticated data in redis and return a token tied to the
data, which should be passed to the log_into_subdomain endpoint.
In this commit, we replace the "pass signed data around" scheme with the
redis scheme, because there's no point having both.
This extracts a function for computing show_invites and
show_add_streams, for better readability and testability.
This commit was substantially cleaned up by tabbott.
This legacy cross-realm bot hasn't been used in several years, as far
as I know. If we wanted to re-introduce it, I'd want to implement it
as an embedded bot using those common APIs, rather than the totally
custom hacky code used for it that involves unnecessary queue workers
and similar details.
Fixes#13533.
authenticate_remote_user already takes care of calling the authenticate
with the dummy backend. Also, return_data is not used and catching
DoesNotExist exception is not needed, as the dummy backend just returns
None if user isn't found.
In other places where we set request._email, we set it to the
delivery_email, as that's more informative in orgs with hidden email
settings, where user.email will be useless.
This updates our error handling of invalid Slack API tokens (and other
networking error handling) to mostly make sense:
* A token that doesn't start with `xoxp-` gives an extended error early.
* An AssertionError for the codebase is correctly declared as such.
* We check for token shape errors before querying the Slack API.
We could still do useful work to raise custom exception classes here.
Thanks to @stavrospat for raising this issue.
responses is an module analogous to httpretty for mocking external
URLs, with a very similar interface (potentially cleaner in that it
makes use of context managers).
The most important (in the moment) problem with httpretty is that it
breaks the ability to use redis in parts of code where httpretty is
enabled. From more research, the module in general has tendency to
have various troublesome bugs with breaking URLs that it shouldn't be
affecting, caused by it working at the socket interface layer. While
those issues could be fixed, responses seems to be less buggy (based
on both third-party reports like ckan/ckan#4755 and our own experience
in removing workarounds for bugs in httpretty) and is more actively
maintained.
If an email is sent with the .prefer-html option, but it has no html
body, it's better to fall back to plaintext content instead of treating
it as a user error.
Closes#13484.
These options tell zulip whether to prefer the plaintext or html version
of the email message. prefer-text is the default behavior, so including
the option doesn't change anything as of now, but we're adding it to
prepare to potentially change the default behavior in the future.
As we add more address options, which will have different behavior than
simply setting option_name=True, we need to migrate this subsystem to
something that better supports more complex logic and will allow
encapsulating it, instead of needing to be put all over the
decode_email_address function.
This essentially unused legacy variable was causing Zulip to query the
database at import time, which is generally not something we aim to
do.
Combined with the issue fixed in the previous commit, this variable
resulted in test-backend providing an unhelpful crash when provision
hadn't updated the unit testing database.
Since the intent of our testing code was clearly to clear this cache
for every test, there's no reason for it to be a module-level global.
This allows us to remove an unnecessary import from test_runner.py,
which in combination with DEFAULT_REALM's definition was causing us to
run models code before running migrations inside test-backend.
(That bug, in turn, caused test-backend's check for whether migrations
needs to be run to happen sadly after trying to access a Realm,
trigger a test-backend crash if the Realm model had changed since the
last provision).
Due to a known but unfixed bug in the Python standard library’s
urllib.parse module (CVE-2015-2104), a crafted URL could bypass the
validation in the previous patch and still achieve an open redirect.

It's theoretically possible to have configured a Zulip server where
the system bots live in the same realm as normal users (and may have
in fact been the default in early Zulip releases? Unclear.). We
should handle these without the migration intended to clean up naming
for the system bot realm crashing.
Fixes#13660.
Zulip has had a small use of WebSockets (specifically, for the code
path of sending messages, via the webapp only) since ~2013. We
originally added this use of WebSockets in the hope that the latency
benefits of doing so would allow us to avoid implementing a markdown
local echo; they were not. Further, HTTP/2 may have eliminated the
latency difference we hoped to exploit by using WebSockets in any
case.
While we’d originally imagined using WebSockets for other endpoints,
there was never a good justification for moving more components to the
WebSockets system.
This WebSockets code path had a lot of downsides/complexity,
including:
* The messy hack involving constructing an emulated request object to
hook into doing Django requests.
* The `message_senders` queue processor system, which increases RAM
needs and must be provisioned independently from the rest of the
server).
* A duplicate check_send_receive_time Nagios test specific to
WebSockets.
* The requirement for users to have their firewalls/NATs allow
WebSocket connections, and a setting to disable them for networks
where WebSockets don’t work.
* Dependencies on the SockJS family of libraries, which has at times
been poorly maintained, and periodically throws random JavaScript
exceptions in our production environments without a deep enough
traceback to effectively investigate.
* A total of about 1600 lines of our code related to the feature.
* Increased load on the Tornado system, especially around a Zulip
server restart, and especially for large installations like
zulipchat.com, resulting in extra delay before messages can be sent
again.
As detailed in
https://github.com/zulip/zulip/pull/12862#issuecomment-536152397, it
appears that removing WebSockets moderately increases the time it
takes for the `send_message` API query to return from the server, but
does not significantly change the time between when a message is sent
and when it is received by clients. We don’t understand the reason
for that change (suggesting the possibility of a measurement error),
and even if it is a real change, we consider that potential small
latency regression to be acceptable.
If we later want WebSockets, we’ll likely want to just use Django
Channels.

Fixes#13416
We used to search only one level in depth through the MIME structure,
and thus would miss attachments that were nested deeper (which can
happen with some email clients). We can take advantage of message.walk()
to iterate through each MIME part.
return in that loop was a bug, which would lead to the To: header not
being set even though data['recipient'] = str(message['To']) is being
run next, thus requiring the header. We can remove the return
statement and now the loop will overwrite all the potentially
troublesome headers.
This is a preparatory commit for using isort for sorting all of our
imports, merging changes to files where we can easily review the
changes as something we're happy with.
These are also files with relatively little active development, which
means we don't expect much merge conflict risk from these changes.
Previously, if you tried to invite a user whose account had been
deactivated, we didn't provide a clear path forward for reactivating
the users, which was confusing.
We fix this by plumbing through to the frontend the information that
there is an existing user account with that email address in this
organization, but that it's deactivated. For administrators, we
provide a link for how to reactivate the user.
Fixes#8144.
Our recent fixes to using the system's configured memcached settings
broke populate_db, because its hacky clear_database helper is called
with a hacked-up settings module.
We fix this by first moving this out-of-place code from models.py into
populate_db, and then saving the settings required to access memcached
so that we can use them in clear_database.
We also fix a mypy erorr in flush-memcached that matches the same
issue fixed in clear_database.
This experimental setting disables sending private messages in Zulip
in a crude way (i.e. users get an error when they try to send one).
It makes no effort to adjust the UI to avoid advertising the idea of
sending private messages.
Fixes#6617.
We should take adventage of the recipient field being denormalized into
the Stream model. We don't need to make queries to figure out a stream's
recipient id, so we take advantage of that to eliminate some of
those redundant queries and simplify StreamRecipientMap.
This removes zerver/webhooks/trello/view/exceptions.py, which
contained legacy Trello webhook exception related classes. We replace
them with UnexpectedWebhookEventType, which results in our standard
exception handling for unknown event types running (avoiding too-high
priority error logging).
Fixes#13467.
This improves the approach of creating multiple parallel processes by
using subprocess.Popen() instead of run_parallel() and
subprocess.call() while exporting an organization's message
history. This prevents forking twice for individual subprocess.
While this has some performance benefit, the main reason to fix this
is that it fixes an issue with the data export web UI introduced in
run_parallel forks exited).
Fixes#12904.
process_missed_message did nothing other than calling
send_to_missed_message_address with the same arguments, so there's no
reason to have these as separate functions.
Addresses point 1 of #13533.
MissedMessageEmailAddress objects get tied to the specific that was
missed by the user. A useful benefit of that is that email message sent
to that address will handle topic changes - if the message that was
missed gets its topic changed, the email response will get posted under
the new topic, while in the old model it would get posted under the
old topic, which could potentially be confusing.
Migrating redis data to this new model is a bit tricky, so the migration
code has comments explaining some of the compromises made there, and
test_migrations.py tests handling of the various possible cases that
could arise.
Preparatory commit for making the email mirror use the database instead
of redis for missed message addresses.
This model will represent missed message email addresses, which
currently have their data stored in redis.
The redis data will be converted and migrated into these models and
the email mirror will start using them in the main commit.
For cross realm bots, explicitly set bot_owner_id
to None. This makes it clear that the cross realm
bots have no owner, whereas before it could be
misdiagnosed as the server forgetting to set the
field.
Model classes fetched through apps.get_model don't get methods or class
attributes. It's not feasible to add them to all these objects in
use_db_models, but Recipient.PERSONAL etc. are worth setting, since
doing that increases the range of functions that can successfully be
imported and called in test_migrations.py.
These tests had a lot of very repetetive, identical mocking, in some
tests without even doing anything with the mocks. It's cleaner to put
the mock in the one relevant, common place for all the tests that need
it, and remove it from tests who had no use for the mocking.
Fixes#13504.
This commit is purely an improvement in error handling.
We used to not do any validation on keys before passing them to
memcached, which meant for invalid keys, memcached's own key
validation would throw an exception. Unfortunately, the resulting
error messages are super hard to read; the traceback structure doesn't
even show where the call into memcached happened.
In this commit we add validation to all the basic cache_* functions, and
appropriate handling in their callers.
We also add a lot of tests for the new behavior, which has the nice
effect of giving us decent coverage of all these core caching
functions which previously had been primarily tested manually.
If ldap sync is run while ldap is misconfigured, it can end up causing
troublesome deactivations due to not finding users in ldap -
deactivating all users, or deactivating all administrators of a realm,
which then will require manual intervention to reactivate at least one
admin in django shell.
This change prevents such potential troublesome situations which are
overwhelmingly likely to be unintentional. If intentional, --force
option can be used to remove the protection.
This change should prevent test flakes, plus
it's more deterministic behavior for clients,
who will generally comma-join the ids into
a key for their internal data structures.
I was able to verify test coverage on this
by making the sort reversed, which would
cause test_huddle_send_message_events to
fail.
This should be about 4 times faster, saving something like half a
millisecond on each stream of 10000 subscribers.

QueueProcessingWorker and LoopQueueProcessingWorker are abstract classes
meant to be subclassed by a class that will define its own consume()
or consume_batch() method. ABCs are suited for that and we can tag
consume/consume_batch with the @abstractmethod wrapper which will
prevent subclasses that don't define these methods properly to be
impossible to even instantiate (as opposed to only crashing once
consume() is called). It's also nicely detected by mypy, which will
throw errors such as this on invalid use:
error: Only concrete class can be given where "Type[TestWorker]" is
expected
error: Cannot instantiate abstract class 'TestWorker' with abstract
attribute 'consume'
Due to it being detected by mypy, we can remove the test
test_worker_noconsume which just tested the old version of this -
raising an exception when the unimplemented consume() gets called. Now
it can be handled already on the linter level.
LoopQueueProcessingWorker can handle exceptions inside consume_batch in
a similar manner to how QueueProcessingWorker handles exceptions inside
consume.
Our ldap integration is quite sensitive to misconfigurations, so more
logging is better than less to help debug those issues.
Despite the following docstring on ZulipLDAPException:
"Since this inherits from _LDAPUser.AuthenticationFailed, these will
be caught and logged at debug level inside django-auth-ldap's
authenticate()"
We weren't actually logging anything, because debug level messages were
ignored due to our general logging settings. It is however desirable to
log these errors, as they can prove useful in debugging configuration
problems. The django_auth_ldap logger can get fairly spammy on debug
level, so we delegate ldap logging to a separate file
/var/log/zulip/ldap.log to avoid spamming server.log too much.
A block of LDAP integration code related to data synchronization did
not correctly handle EMAIL_ADDRESS_VISIBILITY_ADMINS, as it was
accessing .email, not .delivery_email, both for logging and doing the
mapping between email addresses and LDAP users.
Fixes#13539.
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.
Fixes#13528.
The email_auth_enabled check caused all enabled backends to get
initialized, and thus if LDAP was enabled the check_ldap_config()
check would cause an error if LDAP was misconfigured
(for example missing the new settings).
In 3892a8afd8, we restructured the
system for managing uploaded files to a much cleaner model where we
just do parsing inside bugdown.
That new model had potentially buggy handling of cases around both
relative URLs and URLS starting with `realm.host`.
We address this by further rewriting the handling of attachments to
avoid regular expressions entirely, instead relying on urllib for
parsing, and having bugdown output `path_id` values, so that there's
no need for any conversions between formats outside bugdowm.
The check_attachment_reference_change function for processing message
updates is significantly simplified in the process.
The new check on the hostname has the side effect of requiring us to
fix some previously weird/buggy test data.

found by Graham Bleaney and Ibrahim Mohamed using Pysa.

This avoids risk of OOM issues on servers with relatively limited RAM
and millions of messages of history; apparently, fetching all messages
ordered by ID could be quite memory-intensive even with an iterator
usage model.
Fortunately, we have other migrations that already follow this pattern
of iterating over messages, so it's easy to borrow existing code to
make this migration run reasonably.
Our open graph parser logic sloppily mixed data obtained by parsing
open graph properties with trusted data set by our oembed parser.
We fix this by consistenly using our explicit whitelist of generic
properties (image, title, and description) in both places where we
interact with open graph properties. The fixes are redundant with
each other, but doing both helps in making the intent of the code
clearer.
This issue fixed here was originally reported as an XSS vulnerability
in the upcoming Inline URL Previews feature found by Graham Bleaney
and Ibrahim Mohamed using Pysa. The recent Oembed changes close that
vulnerability, but this change is still worth doing to make the
implementation do what it looks like it does.
This fixes a few minor issues with the migration:
* Skips messages with empty rendered_content, fixing an exception that
affected 4 messages on chat.zulip.org.
* Accesses messages in order.
* Provides some basic output on the progress made.
This should make life substantially better for any organizations that
run into trouble with this migration, either due to it taking a long
time to run or due to any new exceptions.
For new user onboarding, it's important for it to be easy to verify
that Zulip's mobile push notifications work without jumping through
hoops or potentially making mistakes. For that reason, it makes sense
to toggle the notification defaults for new users to the more
aggressive mode (ignoring whether the user is currently actively
online); they can set the more subtle mode if they find that the
notifications are annoying.
Previously, these accesses used e.g. .select_related("realm"), which
was the only foreign key on the Stream model. Since the intent in
these code paths is to attach the related models for efficient access,
we should just do that for all related models, including Recipient.
With the recipient field being denormalized into the UserProfile and
Streams models, all current uses of get_stream_recipients can be done
more efficiently, by simply checking the .recipient_id attribute on the
appropriate objects.
With the recipient field being denormalized into the UserProfile and
Streams models, all current uses of bulk_get_recipients can be done more
efficient, by simply checking the .recipient_id attribute on the
appropriate objects.
The flow in recipient_for_user_profiles previously worked by doing
validation on UserProfile objects (returning a list of IDs), and then
using that data to look up the appropriate Recipient objects.
For the case of sending a private message to another user, the new
UserProfile.recipient column lets us avoid the query to the Recipient
table if we move the step of reducing down to user IDs to only occur
in the Huddle code path.
Previously, if the user had interacted with the Zulip mobile app in
the last ~140 seconds, it's likely the mobile app had sent presence
data to the Zulip server, which in turns means that the Zulip server
might not send that user mobile push notifications (or email
notifications) about new messages for the next few minutes.
The email notifications behavior is potentially desirable, but the
push notifications behavior is definitely not -- a private message
reply to something you sent 2 minutes ago is definitely something you
want a push notification for.
This commit partially addresses that issue, by ignoring presence data
from the ZulipMobile client when determining whether the user is
currently engaging with a Zulip client (essentially, we're only
considering desktop activity as something that predicts the user is
likely to see a desktop notification or is otherwise "online").
This removes the last of the messy use of regular expressions outside
bugdown to make decisions on whether a message contains an attachment
or not. Centralizing questions about links to be decided entirely
within bugdown (rather than doing ad-hoc secondary parsing elsewhere)
makes the system cleaner and more robust.
This commit wraps up the work to remove basic regex based parsing
of messages to handle attachment claiming/unclaiming. We now use
the more dependable Bugdown processor to find potential links and
only operate upon those links instead of parsing the full message
content again.
Previously, we would naively set has_attachment just by searching
the whole messages for strings like `/user_uploads/...`. We now
prevent running do_claim_attachments for messages that obviously
do not have an attachment in them that we previously ran.
For example: attachments in codeblocks or
attachments that otherwise do not match our link syntax.
The new implementation runs that check on only the urls that
bugdown determines should be rendered. We also refactor some
Attachment tests in test_messages to test this change.
The new method is:
1. Create a list of potential_attachment_urls in Bugdown while rendering.
2. Loop over this list in do_claim_attachments for the actual claiming.
For saving:
3. If we claimed an attachment, set message.has_attachment to True.
For updating:
3. If claimed_attachment != message.has_attachment: update has_attachment.
We do not modify the logic for 'unclaiming' attachments when editing.
add_a, add_oembed_data and add_embed are only called by
InlineInterestingLinksProcessor and this commit allows
these methods to access self.markdown object.
We register ZulipRemoteUserBackend as an external_authentication_method
to make it show up in the corresponding field in the /server_settings
endpoint.
This also allows rendering its login button together with
Google/Github/etc. leading to us being able to get rid of some of the
code that was handling it as a special case - the js code for plumbing
the "next" value and the special {% if only_sso %} block in login.html.
An additional consequence of the login.html change is that now the
backend will have it button rendered even if it isn't the only backend
enabled on the server.
This commit builds a more complete concept of an "external
authentication method". Our social backends become a special case of an
external authentication method - but these changes don't change the
actual behavior of social backends, they allow having other backends
(that come from python-social-auth and don't use the social backend
pipeline) share useful code that so far only serviced social backends.
Most importantly, this allows having other backends show up in the
external_authentication_methods field of the /server_settings endpoint,
as well as rendering buttons through the same mechanism as we already
did for social backends.
This moves the creation of dictonaries describing the backend for the
API and button rendering code away into a method, that each backend in
this category is responsible for defining.
To register a backend as an external_authentication_method, it should
subclass ExternalAuthMethod and define its dict_representation
classmethod, and finally use the external_auth_method class decorator to
get added to the EXTERNAL_AUTH_METHODS list.
This commit has a side-effect that we also now allow mixed lists,
but they have different syntax from the commonmark implementation
and our marked output. For example, without the closing li tags:
Input Bugdown Marked
-------------------------------------
<ul>
- Hello <li>Hello <ul><li>Hello</ul>
+ World <li>World <ul><li>World
+ Again <li>Again <li>Again</ul>
* And <li>And <ul><li>And
* Again <li>Again <li>Again</ul>
</ul>
The bugdown render is in line with what a user in #13447 requests.
Fixes#13477.
Adds required API and front-end changes to modify and read the
wildcard_mentions_notify field in the Subscription model.
It includes front-end code to add the setting to the user's "manage
streams" page. This setting will be greyed out when a stream is muted.
The PR also includes back-end code to add the setting the initial state of
a subscription.
New automated tests were added for the API, events system and front-end.
In manual testing, we checked that modifying the setting in the front end
persisted the change in the Subscription model. We noticed the notifications
were not behaving exactly as expected in manual testing; see

Tweaked by tabbott to fix real-time synchronization issues.
