api docs filenames are basically the operationId of their endpoint
in zulip.yaml with `_` replaced by `-`. But some operationIds have
changed, so change the affected filenames. Make changes in other
files accordingly.
This adds a new client_capability that clients such as the mobile apps
can use to avoid unreasonable network bandwidth consumed sending
avatar URLs in organizations with 10,000s of users.
Clients don't strictly need this data, as they can always use the
/avatar/{user_id} endpoint to fetch the avatar if desired.
This will be more efficient especially for realms with
10,000+ users because the avatar URLs would increase the
payload size significantly and cost us more bandwidth.
Fixes#15287.
This commit adds backend support for setting message_retention_days
while creating streams and updating it for an existing stream. We only
allow organization owners to set/update it for a stream.
'message_retention_days' field for a stream existed previously also, but
there was no way to set it while creating streams or update it for an
exisiting streams using any endpoint.
The term `parameter` is a better word than `argument` for data passed
to an API endpoint; this is why OpenAPI uses in their terminology.
Replace `argument` with `parameter` in the API docs to improve their
readability.
Fixes#15435.
This commit removes is_old_stream property from the stream objects
returned by the API. This property was unnecessary and is essentially
equivalent to 'stream_weekly_traffic != null'.
We compute sub.is_old_stream in stream_data.update_calculated_fields
in frontend code and it is used to check whether we have a non-null
stream_weekly_traffic or not.
Fixes#15181.
This is designed to have no user-facing change unless the client
declares bulk_message_deletion in its client_capabilities.
Clients that do so will receive a single bulk event for bulk deletions
of messages within a single conversation (topic or PM thread).
Backend implementation of #15285.
This new endpoint returns a 'user' dictionary which, as of now,
contains a single key 'is_subscribed' with a boolean value that
represents whether the user with the given 'user_id' is subscribed
to the stream with the given 'stream_id'.
Fixes#14966.
The only clients that should use the typing
indicators endpoint are our internal clients,
and they should send a JSON-formatted list
of user_ids.
We now enforce this, which removes some
complexity surrounding legacy ways of sending
users, such as emails and comma-delimited
strings of user_ids.
There may be a very tiny number of mobile
clients that still use the old emails API.
This won't have any user-facing effect on
the mobile users themselves, but if you type
a message to your friend on an old mobile
app, the friend will no longer see typing
indicators.
Also, the mobile team may see some errors
in their Sentry logs from the server rejecting
posts from the old mobile clients.
The error messages we report here are a bit
more generic, since we now just use REQ
to do validation with this code:
validator=check_list(check_int)
This also allows us to remove a test hack
related to the API documentation. (We changed
the docs to reflect the modern API in an
earlier commit, but the tests couldn't be
fixed while we still had the more complex
semantics for the "to" parameter.)
This was previously hardcoded with agreement between the Zulip backend
and frontend as 86400 seconds (1 day). Now, it's still hardcoded in
the backend, but arranged in a way where we could add a setting
without any changes to the mobile and terminal apps to update logic.
Fixes#15278.
We're migrating to using the cleaner zulip.com domain, which involves
changing all of our links from ReadTheDocs and other places to point
to the cleaner URL.
This commit removes short_name and client_id fields from the user
objects returned by get_profile_backend because neither of them
had a purpose.
* short_name hasn't been present anywhere else in the Zulip API for
several years, and isn't set through any coherent algorithm.
* client_id was a forgotten 2013-era predecessor to the queue_id field
returned by the register_event_queue process.
The combination of these changes gets us close to having `get_profile`
have the exact same format as other endpoints fetching a user object.
This commit changes get_profile_backend to be based on format_user_row
such that it's a superset of the fields for our other endpoints for
getting data on a user.
To be clear, this does not removes any of the exisiting fields, that
were returned by this endpoint.
This change adds some fields to the User object returned by the
endpoint. API docs are updated accordingly for the added fields.
Option to disable breadcrumb messages were given in both message edit
form and topic edit stream popover.
User now has the option to select which stream to send the notification
of stream edit of a topic via checkboxes in the UI.
This commit modifies the backend to accept user ids when subscribing
users to streams.
It also migrates all existing tests to use this API, aside from a
small set of tests for the legacy API.
There's no reason to send data beyond the user `id` of the uploader,
and reason not to, as the previous model was both awkward when
`author=None` and resulted in unecessary parsing complexity for
clients.
Modified by tabbott to add the frontend changes and API documentation.
Fixes#15115.
This commit changes the person dict in event sent by do_change_user_role
to send role instead of is_admin or is_guest.
This makes things much more straightforward for our upcoming primary
owners feature.
Currently response return values have to be written twice, once in
the docs and once in zulip.yaml. Create a markdown extension so
that the return values in api docs are rendered using content from
zulip.yaml
This commit changes the update user API endpoint to accept role
as parameter instead of the bool parameters is_guest and is_admin.
User role dropdown in user info modal is also modified to use
"dropdown_options_widget".
Modified by tabbott to document the API change.
The `email` field for identifying the user being modified in these
events was not used by either the webapp or other official Zulip
clients. Instead, it was legacy data from before we switched years
ago to sending user_id fields as the correct way to uniquely identify
a user.
When a user changes its avatar image, the user's avatar in popovers
wasn't being correctly updated, because of browser caching of the
avatar image. We added a version on the request to get the image in
the same format we use elsewhere, so the browser knows when to use the
cached image or to make a new request to the server.
Edited by Tim to preserve/fix sort orders in some tests, and update
zulip_feature_level.
Fixes: #14290
For the below payloads we want `owner_id` instead
of `owner`, which we should deprecate. (The
`owner` field is actually an email, which is
not a stable key.)
page_params.realm_bots
realm_bot/add
realm_bot/update
IMPORTANT NOTE: Some of the data served in
these payloads is cached with the key
`bot_dicts_in_realm_cache_key`.
For page_params, we get the new field
via `get_owned_bot_dicts`.
For realm_bot/add, we modified
`created_bot_event`.
For realm_bot/update, we modified
`do_change_bot_owner`.
On the JS side, we no longer
look up the bot's owner directly in
`server_events_dispatch` when we get
a realm_bot/update event. Instead, we
delegate that job to `bot_data.js`.
I modified the tests accordingly.
For privacy-minded folks who don't want to leak the
information of whether they're online, this adds an
option to disable sending presence updates to other
users.
The new settings lies in the "Other notification
settings" section of the "Notification settings"
page, under a "Presence" subheading.
Closes#14798.
I imagine this can be improved in various ways, but I've initialized
this with all the **Changes** entries recorded in either zulip.yaml or
the rest of the API documentation, and I expect we'll be able to
iterate on this effectively.
It'll also be useful as a record of changes that we should remember to
document the API documentation as we document more endpoints that
currently don't discuss these issues.
While working on this, I fixed various issues where feature levels
could be mentioned or endpoints didn't properly document changes.
Firstly, change endpoint descriptions in zulip.yaml so that they
match their counterpart in the api docs. Then edit the api docs
so that they use api description markdown extension for displaying
endpoint description.
Add function in openapi.py to access endpoint descriptions written
in zulip.yaml. Use this function for creating a markdown extension
for rendering endpoint descriptions written in zulip.yaml.
We use this extension for a single endpoint to get test coverage.
Previously, the message and event APIs represented the user differently
for the same reaction data. To make this more consistent, I added a
user_id field to the reaction dict for both messages and events. I
updated the front end to use the user_id field rather than the user
dict. Lastly, I updated front end and back end tests that used user
info.
I primarily tested this by running my local Zulip build and
adding/removing reactions from messages.
Fixes#12049.
The purpose is to provide a way for (non-webapp) clients,
like the mobile and terminal apps, to tell whether the
server it's talking to is new enough to support a given
API feature -- in particular a way that
* is finer-grained than release numbers, so that for
features developed after e.g. 2.1.0 we can use them
immediately on servers deployed from master (like
chat.zulip.org and zulipchat.com) without waiting the
months until a 2.2 release;
* is reliable, unlike e.g. looking at the number of
commits since a release;
* doesn't lead to a growing bag of named feature flags
which the server has to go on sending forever.
Tweaked by tabbott to extend the documentation.
Closes#14618.
Openapi had descriptive response codes for endpoints with multiple
responses for same response code. But this does not fall in line
with openapi specifications. So change descriptive response codes
like "400_auth" and "400_anauth" to "400_0" and "400_1" for all
such endpoints. Also make the necessary changes in openapi.py so
as to be able to read the schema in such cases and generate example
in such cases.
This commit reuses the existing infrastructure for moving a topic
within a stream to add support for moving topics from one stream to
another.
Split from the original full-feature commit so that we can merge just
the backend, which is finished, at this time.
This is a large part of #6427.
The feature is incomplete, in that we don't have real-time update of
the frontend to handle the event, documentation, etc., but this commit
is a good mergable checkpoint that we can do further work on top of.
We also still ideally would have a test_events test for the backend,
but I'm willing to leave that for follow-up work.
This appears to have switched to tabbott as the author during commit
squashing sometime ago, but this commit is certainly:

This commit migrates zulip outging webhook payload to
/zulip-outgoing-webhook:post in OpenAPI.
Since this migrates the last payloads from api/fixtures.json to
OpenAPI, this commit removes api/fixtures.json file and the functions
accessing the file.
Tweaked by tabbott to further remove an unnecessary conditional.
Migrate "call_on_each_event" from api/arguments.json to
/events:real-time in OpenAPI.
This is a bit of a hack, but it lets us eliminate this secondary
arguments.json file, which is probably worth it.
Tweaked by tabbott to fix various formatting issues in the original
documentation while I was looking at it.
Most part of "/message/{message_id}" is migrated to OpenAPI. This commit
migrated the remaning payload "update-message-edit-permission-error"
from "api/fixtures.json" to OpenAPI. This commit also fixes an error
schema in "zulip.yaml" for this payload.
I verified there are no other endpoints we've added since Zulip 2.1,
so at least this part of our documentation is accurate.
We added the `/realm/export` endpoints in Zulip 2.1, but those don't
have documentation yet, so we'll just need to remember to cover this
when they are added.
This refactors remove_reaction in python_examples.py to validate the
result with validate_against_openapi_schema. Minor changes and some
additions have been made to the OpenAPI format data for
/messages/{message_id}/reactions endpoint.
This refactors add_reaction in python_examples.py to use the
openapi_test_function decorator and validate result with
validate_against_openapi_schema. Minor changes have been made to the
OpenAPI format data for /messages/{message_id}/reactions endpoint.
This also adds add-emoji.md to templates/zerver/api and adds
add-emoji to rest-endpoints.md (templates/zerver/help/include).
This refactors get_members_backend to return user data of a single
user in the form of a dictionary (earlier being a list with a single
dictionary).
This also refactors it to return the data with an appropriate key
(inside a dictionary), "user" or "members", according to the type of
data being returned.
Tweaked by tabbott to use somewhat less opaque code and simple OpenAPI
descriptions.
This adds update_user to python_examples.py in zerver/openapi.
This also adds update-user.md to templates/zerver/api and adds
update-user to rest-endpoints.md (templates/zerver/help/include).
This adds deactivate_user to python_examples.py in zerver/openapi.
This also adds delete-user.md to templates/zerver/api and adds
delete-user to rest-endpoints.md (templates/zerver/help/include).
This adds get_single_user to python_examples.py in zerver/openapi.
This also adds get-single-user.md to templates/zerver/api and adds
get-single-user to rest-endpoints.md (templates/zerver/help/include).
This commit includes a new `stream_post_policy` setting,
by replacing the `is_announcement_only` field from the Stream model,
which is done by mirroring the structure of the existing
`create_stream_policy`.
It includes the necessary schema and database migrations to migrate
the is_announcement_only boolean field to stream_post_policy,
a smallPositiveInteger field similar to many other settings.
This change is done to allow organization administrators to restrict
new members from creating and posting to a stream. However, this does
not affect admins who are new members.
With many tweaks by tabbott to documentation under /help, etc.
Fixes#13616.
Lists API client bindings/libraries/wrappers and makes a distinction
between official core projects and community projects.
Tweaked by tabbott to sort the community and outdated libraries, and
restructure how we talk about other projects.
Fixes#2093.
Apparently, the refactor months ago that introduced finalize_payload
wasn't applied to the outgoing webhook code path, resulting in message
dicts with an unexpected format with no avatar_url and some extra
values that were intended to be internal details not relevant to
external clients.
Because this API is not widely used, we expect there to be little to
no impact of converting this back to matching the `get_messages`
interface, as it once was and has always been intended to be.
The one somewhat tricky detail is that we include both the `content`
and `rendered_content` fields, rather than asking the client to pick
which they want via the `apply_markdown` flag, because there is no
place for the client to configure that setting.
The main purpose of this is to make that name change happen in
/server_settings. external_authentication_methods is a much better, more
descriptive name than social_backends from API perspective.
These are returned through the API, at the /server_settings
endpoint. It's better to just return the list of dicts with a guarantee
of being sorted in the correct order, than to clutter things with the
sort_order field.
new_name and description params should be valid JSON
strings. The format of these params are marked as
json so that the curl example genenrator can convert
them into json strings.
These docs had a number of typos, and also didn't fully clarify how to
handle lists of integers for `pm-with`.
Also makes some tweaks to the user docs to make this clearer as well.
Fixes#13167.
Without disturbing the flow of the existing code for configuring
embedded bots too much, we now use the config_options feature to
allow incoming webhook type bot to be configured via. the "/bots"
endpoint of the API.
This was used as a helper to construct the final display_recipient when
fetching messages. With the new mechanism of constructing
display_recipient by fetching appropriate users/streams from the
database and cache, this shouldn't be needed anymore.
The `users/me/subscriptions` endpoint accidentally started returning
subscriber information for each stream. This is convenient, but
unnecessarily costly for those clients which either don't need it
(most API apps) or already acquire this information via /register
(including Zulip's apps).
This change removes that data set from the default response. Clients
which had come to rely on it, or would like to rely on it in future,
may still access it via an additional documented API parameter.
Fixes#12917.
Now that we can create cURL examples based on the OpenAPI
documentation. We can begin using simple one line tags in
the documentation instead of manually creating cURL examples.
Fixes part of #12878.
This commit progress our efforts to reduce pending_endpoints
as well as to migrate away from templates/zerver/api/fixtures
and towards our OpenAPI documentation.
Similar to commit d62b75fc.
The issue here was that the endpoint was documented as being
contactable by bots when in reality we have a require_member_or_admin
decorator on the endpoint. So bots and guests cannot contact it.
The issue with the previous example was that it sent the data as
POST variables. This corrected example appropriately encodes data
(with URL encoding) and sends it as GET variables.
In commit 7c71e98, we added a special exception for the
/users/me/subscriptions endpoint in the automatic validation test.
By adding some extra documentation, we now remove this extra code,
as well as the endpoint from the list of pending endpoints.
The previous code for the validator test was fairly messy due to
checking for both formats of the openapi url, one with
<variable_name> and the other with {variable_name}. To eliminate
this, we have standardized the format and restricted it to
{variable_name} as per the official format at:
https://swagger.io/docs/specification/describing-parameters.
For storing HTTP headers as a function of fixture name, previously
we required that the fixture_to_headers method should reside in a
separate module called headers.py.
However, as in many cases, this method will only take a few lines,
we decided to move this function into the view.py file of the
integration instead of requiring a whole new file called headers.py
This commit introduces the small change in the system architecture,
migrates the GitHub integration, and updates the docs accordingly.
In the GitHub integration we established that for many integrations,
we can directly map the fixture filename to the set of required
headers and by following a simple naming convention we can greatly
ease the logic involved in fixture_to_headers method required .
So to prevent the need for duplicating the logic used by the GitHub
integration, we created a method called `get_http_headers_from_filename`
which will take the name of the HTTP header (key) and then return a
corresponding method (in a decorator-like fashion) which could then be
equated to fixture_to_headers in headers.py.
The GitHub integration was modified to use this method and the docs
were updated to suggest using this when possible.
Using this system, we can now associate any fixture of any integration
with a particular set of HTTP headers. A helper method called
determine_http_headers was introduced, and the test suite was upgraded
to use determine_http_headers.
Comments and documentation significantly edited by tabbott.
We also document support for user IDs in the pm-with narrow operator.
Edited by tabbott to document on /api rather than in the /help page.
Fixes part of #9474.
This makes it a lot more useful for understanding how our flag update
endpoints work.
With significant edits by tabbott to explain what these are.
Fixes#12092.
This commit also adds a small functionality change where the results of
each webhook fixture message sent is now displayed to the user.
With a small tweak by tabbott to fix a styling bug.
Fixes#12122.
This commit introduces a simple field where the user can now specify custom
HTTP headers. This commit does not introduce an improved system for storing
HTTP headers as fixtures - such a change would modify both the existing unit
tests as well as this devtool.
This commit adds a new developer tool: The "integrations dev panel"
which will serve as a replacement for the send_webhook_fixture_message
management command as a way to test integrations with much greater ease.
When passing arguments with the `-d` syntax, which is convenient for
command-line examples, one needs to specify `-X GET` for curl to work
properly.
Fixes#12116
We still create a Python 2 virtualenv for thumbor but that’s
separate (/srv/zulip-thumbor-venv from
scripts/lib/create-thumbor-venv).
Signed-off-by: Anders Kaseorg <andersk@mit.edu>
Since the Zulip API runs on both developement and production
servers, it is misleading to mention "dev servers" when discussing
zuliprc files.
Also, note that it is better to manually edit all of our JS
examples than to implement macro-like functionality that we use
for our Python examples. For our current purposes, it would be
too much work to build a full-blown testing framework for our
JS code examples just so that we can fix a minor wording issue.
Fixes#10672.
This adds a new realm_logo field, which is a horizontal-format logo to
be displayed in the top-left corner of the webapp, and any other
places where we might want a wide-format branding of the organization.
Tweaked significantly by tabbott to rebase, fix styling, etc.
Fixing the styling of this feature's loading indicator caused me to
notice the loading indicator for the realm_icon feature was also ugly,
so I fixed that too.
Fixes#7995.
The testing section is more appropriate, since it's fundamentally part
of our CI system.
While we're at it, fix the fact that we were linking to GitHub, not
ReadTheDocs, in the run-mypy output.
For the PHP link, I just found an equivalent link that detailed
some well-known PHP security vulnerabilities.
As for the now defunct RequestBin, another instance is hosted
by another domain, so we can recommend using that for now.
I rewrote the section explaining what the
endpoint sends back to the server. This fixes
a few typos, emphasizes the normal case, and
starts to favor "content" as the key for
content.
Tweaked by tabbott to use a declared constant rather than just use
5000 in multiple places; this also means we can change the count
without updating translations.
Fixes#10446.
