This should make life a lot more convenient for organizations that use
the LDAP integration and have their avatars in LDAP already.
This hasn't been end-to-end tested against LDAP yet, so there may be
some minor revisions, but fundamentally, it works, has automated
tests, and should be easy to maintain.
Fixes#286.
This commit works by vendoring the couple functions we still use from
puppetlabs stdlib (join and range), but removing the rest of the
puppetlabs codebase, and of course cleaning up our linter rules in the
process.
Fixes#7423.
Also, add a new notification sound, "ding". It comes from
https://freesound.org, where the original Zulip notification sound comes
from as well. In the future, new sounds can be added by adding audio
files to the `static/audio/notification_sounds` directory.
Tweaked significantly by tabbott:
* Avoided removing static/audio/zulip.ogg, because that file is
checked for by old versions of the desktop app.
* Added a views check for the sound being valid + tests.
* Added additional tests.
* Restructured the test_events test to be cleaner.
* Removed check_bool_or_string.
* Increased max length of notification_sound.
* Provide available_notification_sounds in events data set if global
notifications settings are requested.
Fixes#8051.
A bunch of details were out of date about the current state of Zulip
and thus what projects make sense; while this isn't likely to be our
final 2019 ideas list, this should help avoid confusion about what's
happening.
A key part of this is the new helper, get_user_by_delivery_email. Its
verbose name is important for clarity; it should help avoid blind
copy-pasting of get_user (which we'll also want to rename).
Unfortunately, it requires detailed understanding of the context to
figure out which one to use; each is used in about half of call sites.
Another important note is that this PR doesn't migrate get_user calls
in the tests except where not doing so would cause the tests to fail.
This probably deserves a follow-up refactor to avoid bugs here.
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 is required in some AWS regions.
The right long-term fix is to move to boto3 which doesn't have this
problem.
Allows us to downgrade the priority of #9376.
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:
https://community.letsencrypt.org/t/how-to-specify-subject-name-on-san/Fixes#10674.
Older versions of virtual box were giving installation error in new
MacOS Mojave. While originally we considered changing the docs to
point to the current version 5.2.20, it seems better to just not pin a
version.
Significantly tweaked by tabbott.
This is a preparator refactor for supporting hosting different Tornado
processes on different servers; to look up which Tornado server we
should be sending the event to, we'll need the realm object.
On OSX, the user id and group id don't match. So while the previous
code was always wrong, it produced incorrect output there. We can fix
this by replacing `whoami` with `id -g` for finding the current user's
group ID.
Tweaked by tabbott to move most of the content into the remote
development documentation, both for brevity in the main docs as well
as clarity.
Fixes#10694.
We drop support for usage of `icon-vector` as base class when
including icons from font awesome icons package.
Now on, only icons as specified in font awesome v4.7.0 can be used
in the code base.
Surprisingly hard to find a good base example of a user doc. This one should
at least give the basic pointer to sidebar_index.md and where the new file
goes.
In particular, this improves:
* The explanation of how data is mapped into Zulip
* The explanation of what is printed out by `manage.py query_ldap`
* Makes sure users create their first account with EmailAuthBackend.
The term "username" confusingly refers both to the Django concept of
"username" (meaning "the name the user types into the login form") and
a concept the admin presumably already has in their existing
environment; which may or may not be the same thing, and in fact this
is where we document the admin's choice of whether and how they should
correspond. The Django concept in particular isn't obvious, and is
counterintuitive when it means something like an email address.
Explicitly explain the Django "username" concept, under the name of
"Zulip username" to take responsibility for our choice of how it's
exposed in the settings interface. Then use an explicit qualifier,
like "LDAP username", whenever referring to some other notion of
username. And make a pass over this whole side of the instructions,
in particular for consistent handling of these concepts.
Expand on a few things that tend to confuse people (especially the
`%(user)s` thing); move the `LDAPSearchUnion` example out to docs;
adjust the instructions to fit a bit better in their new docs/ home.
This makes it easier to iterate on these, and to expand supplemental
information (like troubleshooting, or unusual configurations) without
further straining the already-dauntingly-long settings.py.
It also makes it easier to consult the instructions while editing the
secrets file, or testing things, etc. -- most admins will find it more
natural to keep a browser open somewhere than a second terminal.
Fixes part of #10297.
Use FAKE_LDAP_NUM_USERS which specifies the number of LDAP users
instead of FAKE_LDAP_EXTRA_USERS which specified the number of
extra users.
There are several situations in which we want to create a Customer and
stripe.Customer object before we really have a billing relationship with a
customer. The main one is giving non-profit or educational discounts.
Due to copyright issues with potentially displaying Apple emojisets on
non-apple devices, as well as iamcal dropping support for the emojione
emojiset (see https://github.com/iamcal/emoji-data/pull/142), we are
dropping (perhaps temporarily) support for allowing users to switch
emojisets in Zulip.
This commit just hides the feature from the user but leaves most of
the infrastructure in place so that in the future if we decide to
re-enable the support we will not need to redo the infrastructure work
(some JS-side code is deleted, mostly because we'll want to re-add the
feature using the do_settings_change infrastructure anyway).
The most likely emoji set to add is the legacy "blobs" Google emoji
set, since it seems popular with some users.
Tweaked by tabbott to remove some additional JS code and update the
changelog.
Now that we have nice documentation for our export/import tools, we've
been seeing a lot of users trying to use that as their primary backup
process. Let's correct this.
This flag is used to track which user/message pairs correspond to an
active mobile push notification, that should potentially be cleared
when the user reads the message.
This flag should never appear on a message that is also marked as
read; eventually we may want a cron job to check for that condition.
We include a partial index on UserMessage for this flag.
This renames Realm.restricted_to_domain field to
emails_restricted_to_domains, for greater clarity as to what it does
just from seeing the setting name, without having to look it up.
Fixes part of #10042.
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.
