A user who was no longer subscribed to a private stream kept their
UserMessage row for a message sent while they were in it; this is
expected. However, they _also_ kept that row even if the message was
moved to a different private stream that they were also not subscribed
to. This violates the invariant that users without subscriptions
never have UserMessage rows.
This `if new_stream is not None` block was improperly indented,
causing it to only run if the propagation mode was not `change_one`.
Since the block controlled creation and deletion of UserMessage rows,
this led to messages being improperly still visible to members of the
old stream if they were being moved from public to private streams.
Clients also failed to receive `delete_message` events, so the
messages remained visible in their feeds until they reloaded the
application.
Rather than pass around a list of message objects in-memory, we
instead keep the same constructed QuerySet which includes the later
propagated messages (if any), and use that same query to pick out
affected Attachment objects, rather than limiting to the set of ids.
This is not necessarily a win -- the list of message-ids *may* be very
long, and thus the query may be more concise, easier to send to
PostgreSQL, and faster for PostgreSQL to parse. However, the list of
ids is almost certainly better-indexed.
After processing the move, the QuerySet must be re-defined as a search
of ids (and possibly a very long list of such), since there is no
other way which is guaranteed to correctly single out the moved
messages. At this point, it is mostly equivalent to the list of
Message objects, and certainly takes no less memory.
This applies access restrictions in SQL, so that individual messages
do not need to be walked one-by-one. It only functions for stream
messages.
Use of this method significantly speeds up checks if we moved "all
visible messages" in a topic, since we no longer need to walk every
remaining message in the old topic to determine that at least one was
visible to the user. Similarly, it significantly speeds up merging
into existing topics, since it no longer must walk every message in
the new topic to determine if the user could see at least one.
Finally, it unlocks the ability to bulk-update only messages the user
has access to, in a single query (see subsequent commit).
This is a preparatory commit that refactors the check_update_message
method to extract the checks containing whether a user can edit the
message or not into a separate method -validate_message_content_edit,
so that it can be re used later.
This is preparatory work towards adding a Topic model.
We plan to use the local variable name as 'topic' for
the Topic model objects.
Currently, we use *topic as the local variable name for
topic names.
We rename local variables of the form *topic to *topic_name
so that we don't need to think about type collisions in
individual code paths where we might want to talk about both
Topic objects and strings for the topic name.
Now, the topic wildcard mention follows the following
rules:
* If the topic has less than 15 participants , anyone
can use @ topic mentions.
* For more than 15, the org setting 'wildcard_mention_policy'
determines who can use @ topic mentions.
Earlier, topic wildcard mentions followed the same restriction
as stream wildcard mentions, which was incorrect.
Fixes part of #27700.
Rename the existing 'wildcard_mentioned' flag to
'stream_wildcard_mentioned'.
The 'wildcard_mentioned' flag is deprecated and exists for
backwards compatibility.
We have two separate flags for stream and topic wildcard mentions,
i.e., 'stream_wildcard_mentioned' and 'topic_wildcard_mentioned',
respectively.
* stream wildcard mentions: `@all`, `@everyone`, and `@stream`
* topic wildcard mentions: `@topic`
The `wildcard_mentioned` flag is included in the events and
API response if either `stream_wildcard_mentioned` or
`topic_wildcard_mentioned` is set.
Earlier, the 'wildcard_mentioned' flag was set for both the
stream and topic wildcard mentions.
Now, the 'topic_wildcard_mentioned' flag is set for topic
wildcard mentions, and the 'wildcard_mentioned' flag is set for
stream wildcard mentions.
We will rename the 'wildcard_mentioned' flag to
'stream_wildcard_mentioned' in a later commit.
Users who used to be subscribed to a private stream and have been
removed from it since retain the ability to edit messages/topics, and
delete messages that they used to have access to, if other relevant
organization permissions allow these actions. For example, a user may be
able to edit or delete their old messages they posted in such a private
stream. An administrator will be able to delete old messages (that they
had access to) from the private stream.
We fix this by fixing the logic in has_message_access (which lies at the
core of our message access checks - access_message() and
bulk_access_messages())
to not rely on only a UserMessage row for checking access but also
verify stream type and subscription status.
We do not want to access realm from "sender" field so that
we do not need to pass "sender__realm" argument to
select_related call when querying messages. We can instead
pass realm as argument to wildcard_mention_allowed.
We can directly get the realm object from Message object now
and there is no need to get the realm object from "sender"
field of Message object.
After this change, we would not need to fetch "sender__realm"
field using "select_related" and instead only passing "realm"
to select_related when querying Message objects would be enough.
This commit also updates a couple of cases to directly access
realm ID from message object and not message.sender. Although
we have fetched sender object already, so accessing realm_id
from message directly or from message.sender should not matter,
but we can be consistent to directly get realm from Message
object whenever possible.
Earlier, for topic wildcard mentions, the 'wildcard_mentioned'
flag was set for all the user-messages. (similar to stream wildcard
mention).
The flag should be set for the topic participants only.
The bug was introduced in 4c9d26c.
This commit renames the keyword 'pm' to 'dm' in the
'pm_mention_email_disabled_user_ids' and
'pm_mention_push_disabled_user_ids' attributes of the
'RecipientInfoResult' dataclass.
'pm' and 'dm' are the acronyms for 'private message' and
'direct message' respectively.
It includes 'TODO/compatibility' code to support the old format
fields in the tornado queues during the Zulip server upgrades.
Fundamentally, we should take a write lock on the message, check its
validity for a change, and then make and commit that change.
Previously, `check_update_message` did not operate in a transaction,
but `do_update_message` did -- which led to the ordering:
- `check_update_message` reads Message, not in a transaction
- `check_update_message` verifies properties of the Message
- `do_update_message` starts a transaction
- `do_update_message` takes a read lock on UserMessage
- `do_update_message` writes on UserMessage
- `do_update_message` writes Message
- `do_update_message` commits
This leads to race conditions, where the `check_update_message` may
have verified based on stale data, and `do_update_message` may
improperly overwrite it; as well as deadlocks, where
other (properly-written) codepaths take a write lock on Message
_before_ updating UserMessage, and thus deadlock with
`do_update_message`.
Change `check_update_message` to open a transaction, and take the
write lock when first accessing the Message row. We update the
comment above `do_update_message` to clarify this expectation.
The new ordering is thus:
- `check_update_message` starts a transaction
- `check_update_message` takes a write lock on Message
- `check_update_message` verifies properties of the Message
- `do_update_message` writes on UserMessage
- `do_update_message` writes Message
- `check_update_message` commits
This commit completes the notifications part of the @topic
wildcard mention feature.
Notifications are sent to the topic participants for the
@topic wildcard mention.
This commit adds the 'topic_wildcard_mention_user_ids' and
'topic_wildcard_mention_in_followed_topic_user_ids'
attributes to the 'RecipientInfoResult' dataclass.
Only topic participants are notified of @topic mentions.
Topic participants are anyone who sent a message to a topic
or reacted to a message on the topic.
'topic_wildcard_mention_in_followed_topic_user_ids' stores the
ids of the topic participants who follow the topic and have
enabled the wildcard mention notifications for followed topics.
'topic_wildcard_mention_user_ids' stores the ids of the topic
participants for whom 'user_allows_notifications_in_StreamTopic'
with setting 'wildcard_mentions_notify' returns True.
This prep commit replaces the 'wildcard' keyword in the codebase
with 'stream_wildcard' at some places for better readability, as
we plan to introduce 'topic_wildcards' as a part of the
'@topic mention' project.
Currently, 'wildcards = ["all", "everyone", "stream"]' which is an
alias to mention everyone in the stream, hence better renamed as
'stream_wildcards'.
Eventually, we will have:
'stream_wildcard' as an alias to mention everyone in the stream.
'topic_wildcard' as an alias to mention everyone in the topic.
'wildcard' refers to 'stream_wildcard' and 'topic_wildcard' as a whole.
This commit adds backend code to check whether a user is allowed
to mention a user group while editing a message as per
can_mention_group setting of that group.
Fixes a part of #25927.
This commit makes it possible for users to control the wildcard
mention notifications for messages sent to followed topics
via a global notification setting.
There is no support for configuring this setting
through the UI yet.
This commit makes it possible for users to control
the push notifications for messages sent to followed topics
via a global notification setting.
There is no support for configuring this setting
through the UI yet.
This commit makes it possible for users to control
the email notifications for messages sent to followed topics
via a global notification setting.
Although there is no support for configuring this setting
through the UI yet.
Add five new fields to the UserBaseSettings class for
the "followed topic notifications" feature, similar to
stream notifications. But this commit consists only of
the implementation of email notifications.
The code for updating visibility policy values on moving messages
had two bugs.
- There was a typo in elif condition where "user_profile" was being
used instead of "user_profile_with_policy".
This commit fixes the typo.
- It was assumed that there would be no UserTopic rows for target
topic if the target topic didn't exist. But there can be such case
where some messages were sent to that topic and the user muted
the topic. But then the messages in that topic was deleted. In
such case there can be UserTopic rows for a stream-topic pair
that does not exist.
This commit fixes the code to handle such case as well and set
the visibility policy of new topic to what was set for the original
topic. This change simplifies the condition to just check whether
new_visibility_policy is equal to target_topic_visibility_policy
and skip if so, and update the visibility policy otherwise.
Due to this change, we now do not try to mute the already muted
topic if the topic is moved to a topic which didn't exist
previously and thus we modify the existing test to not expect
any INFO logs.
Doing so causes the "username resolved this topic" or "this topic was
moved by username" notifications to be attributed to a random user who
had a visibility policy on the topic.
This was previously called delete_event_notify_user_ids, which seemed
to narrow its purpose in a way that was confusing given that it's also
used for other calculations.
Further, calculate it as soon as we know it, not when we're first
going to use it.
This commit updates the logic for migrating user_topic rows
during the move-messages operation when the target topic
already has messages.
Previously, the target_topic's visibility_policy was simply
set to the original_topic's visibility_policy,
and the original_topic's visibility_policy was set to INHERIT.
This commit updates the move-messages code path to determine
the new visibility_policy depending on the visibility policies
of the original and target topics.
The target_topic's visibility_policy is then updated.
The number of db queries has increased by two:
One query corresponds to determining if 'target_topic_has_messages'.
Another query corresponds to 'get_users_with_user_topic_visibility_policy'
to determine 'target_topic_user_profile_to_visibility_policy'.
This commit refactors the move user_topic records
code block in 'do_update_message', resulting in
clean code.
We directly iterate over the dictionary items
instead of looping over the keys and fetching
values if the key exists.
