We only use it in this one place, so a comment right here seems the
most discoverable place to put it. If we started using it more...
probably the section in docs/documentation/overview.md about the
dev/sysadmin docs system should split off into a new file, and this
info would become a subsection there.
This provides a better entrypoint for developers to learn about
internationalization in Zulip without cluttering the article for
translators.
I also took the opportunity to add a proper for-developers
introduction, including a link to the very nice EdX guide on the
topic.
The `AUTH_LDAP_ALWAYS_UPDATE_USER` is `True` by default, and this would sync the
attributes defined in the `AUTH_LDAP_USER_ATTR_MAP` to the user profile. But,
the default code in `django-auth-ldap` would work correctly only for `full_name`
field. This commit disables the setting by default, in favour of using the
`sync_ldap_user_data` script as a cron job.
Move docs/tutorials/documenting-api-endpoint.md to
docs/documentation/api.md.
This makes it easier to find when browsing the complete set of
materials on writing Zulip documentation.
This also means the default dev environment is now based on Ubuntu
18.04 (bionic), part of our overall effort to migrate off Ubuntu
Trusty.

This guide was originally written as part of the process of adding
i18n support to Zulip, so it had way too much focus on development
tooling details not relevant to translators.
There's probably a separate follow-up project we should do to move the
developers-only content to a separate article, since it's kinda lost
here for that audience.
Thanks to David Wood for asking a question that inspired me to do
this.
We now use a Proxy to wrap zjquery elements, so
that we can detect callers trying to invoke methods
(or access attributes) that do not exist. We try
to give useful error messages in those cases.
The main impact here is that we force lots of tests
to explicitly stub `length`.
Also, we can't do equality checks on zjquery
objects any more due to the proxy object, but the
easy workaround is to compare selectors. (This
is generally an unnecessary technique, anyway.)
The proxy wrapper is fairly straightforward, and
we just have a few special cases for things like
"inspect" that happen when you try to print out
objects.
The numbers are in parens to avoid the markdown processor interpreting them
as numbers -- I couldn't get the automatic numbering to work out with the
paragraph breaks and so on, and this is probably good enough for now.
This commit renames the `create_stream_permission` field in the
templates to `create_stream_policy`, matching the field used in the
database model. This matches what `invite_to_stream_policy` does and
will be clearer when the `waiting_period_threshold` is split into its
own field.
We need to disable "CREATE EXTENSION pgroonga" in zulip-puppet-apply
by creating /usr/share/postgresql/10/pgroonga_setup.sql.applied.
Because PostgreSQL 10 isn't running in this case. If PostgreSQL 10
isn't running, we can't run "CREATE EXTENSION pgroonga".
We can't use pg_upgrade with PGroonga. PGroonga's install SQL
https://github.com/pgroonga/pgroonga/blob/master/data/pgroonga.sql has
conditions to support multiple PostgreSQL versions. So it's not safe
to use pg_upgrade. pg_upgrade copies metadata for PostgreSQL 9.5 to
PostgreSQL 10. We need to use pg_dump and pg_restore to upgrade
PGroonga correctly for PostgreSQL 10.

It's not required on Ubuntu Xenial (having been replaced by systemd)
and causes problems when installing/upgrading other packages; this
change matches a similar block of code in our installer.
The comment explains this in more detail, but basically one previously
needed the `--from-git` option to `upgrade-zulip-stage-2` if one had
last installed/upgraded from Git, and not that option otherwise, which
would have forced us to make the OS upgrade documentation much more
complicated than it needed to be.
One longstanding gap in our production documentation is how to
properly do an upgrade to the operating system on which Zulip is
installed.
This adds that documentation.
Ideally, we'd get a few folks to test this procedure over the next few
days to make sure it's bulletproof.
Fixes#1705.
Fixes#10796.
There are two 'etc' words in the same line. This removes one of them.
Note from Tim: The old text was arguably correct, but removing it is definitely clearer.
Add references to TypeScript in documentation where appropriate, such
as in example bash commands and discussions of the file structure.
Add a new section to the Reading List with TypeScript resources.
Also update `.editorconfig` to support ".ts" files.
Fix part of #12000.
Two variables were declared and assigned the respective values of the
default settings for the system. If the keyword is used in the
~/.zulip-vagrant-config file, the value is assigned to the variable.
There is no straightforward way to customize the virtual machine's
number of cpus or memory, this commit addresses that fact.
This adds numerous manual testing methods and checks to the
`manual-testing.md` to verify the functioning of various hotkeys,
click handlers and appearance of the message box.
Sphinx/ReadTheDocs supports automatically translating links written as
to `.md` files to point to the corresponding `.html` files, so this
migration does not change the resulting HTML output in ReadTheDocs.
But it does fix apparent broken links on GitHub.
This doesn't prevent people from reading the documentation on GitHub
(so doesn't mitigate the fact that some rtd-specific syntax does not
render properly on GH), but it will prevent us from getting erroneous
issues reported about the hyperlinks not working.
Fixes: #11087.
The docs specify passing hostname with the --hostname flag, which
doesn't match the actual usage in scripts/setup/setup-certbot. This
change fixes the docs to match the actual usage.
This renames references to user avatars, bot avatars, or organization
icons to profile pictures. The string in the UI are updated,
in addition to the help files, comments, and documentation. Actual
variable/function names, changelog entries, routes, and s3 buckets are
left as-is in order to avoid introducing bugs.
Fixes#11824.
Add the recommendation in docs for not using GitHub Desktop client for
zulip code as it has a bug of keeping the symlinks disabled and ignoring
any configuration done to re-enable it resulting into failure to identify
the received symlinks leading to failing test cases in the zulip development
environment.
This documentation had a tendency to bitrot, and in any case now that
we have tooling for doing Fedora (etc.) from provision, it's likely
the case that adding other Linux/UNIX distros we care about to
provision would not be difficult and is a better path than maintaining
this manually-curated duplicate of `tools/provision`.
Further, even if this documentation was maintained, one would still
end up wanting to run `provision` after rebasing a branch, so it was
never particularly practical for extended development.
The history of this was that there was a period where half of Vagrant
releases were broken (for everyone, e.g. downloading a base container
didn't work). It seems Vagrant has cleaned up their act at this point.
We really just want 2.0.x, not a specific version, and the direct
links we had are now quite old.
Thanks to Jonathon Hinchley for reporting this.
Fixes#11836.
Visually, #zoom_help_text acts like
.organization-settings-parent div:first-of-type when the Zoom option
is selected, but isn't treated as such.
No visual change with the #google_hangouts_domain change; just there to make
the code more readable/defensible.
