tonynater a5e0d9cd5c docs: Reorder sections and add details to remote-dev docs. 
This reorders the sections such that setting up the development
environment and making sure it runs comes before editing the
code. Also added some clarifying sentences to give context to bullets.

Alex Dehnert c07298b8a3 docs: Don't include zulip.readthedocs.io in internal links 
Two reasons not to use such links:
- when making doc changes, if you follow links in your local build, they can
  cause you to silently end up no longer reading your local changes
- they can cause you to randomly switch between http:// and https://

Steve Howell 0bdc9fef5c Upgrade caspersjs to version 1.1.3. (w/acrefoot) 
(Most of this work was done by acrefoot in an earlier branch.
I took over the branch to fix casper tests that were broken during
the upgrade (which were fixed in a different commit).  I also
made most of the changes to run-casper.)

This also upgrades phantomjs to 2.1.7.

The huge structural change here is that we no longer vendor casperjs
or download phantomjs with our own script.  Instead, we just use
casperjs and phantomjs from npm, via package.json.

Another thing that we do now is run casperjs tests individually, so
that we don't get strange test flakes from test interactions.  (Tests
can still influence each other in terms of changing data, since we
don't yet have code to clear the test database in between tests.)

A lot of this diff is just removing files and obsolete configurations.

The main new piece is in package.json, which causes npm to install the
new version.

Also, run-casper now runs files individually, as mentioned above.

We had vendored casperjs in the past.  I didn't bring over any of our
changes.  Some of the changes were performance-related (primarily
5fd58cf249), so the upgraded version may
be slower in some instances.  (I didn't do much measurement of that,
since most of our slowness when running tests is about the setup
environment, not casper itself.)  Any bug fixes that we may have
implemented in the past were either magically fixed by changes to
casper itself or by improvements we have made in the tests themselves
over the years.

Tim tested the Casper suite on his machine and running the full Casper
test suite is faster than it was before this change (1m30 vs. 1m50),
so we're at least not regressing overall performance.

Rishi Gupta 777fcaa6a0 Add new organization type field to Realm objects. 
Adds a new field org_type to Realm.  Defaults for restricted_to_domain
and invite_required are now controlled by org_type at time of realm
creation (see zerver.lib.actions.do_create_realm), rather than at the
database level.  Note that the backend defaults are all
org_type=corporate, since that matches the current assumptions in the
codebase, whereas the frontend default is org_type=community, since if
a user isn't sure they probably want community.

Since we will likely in the future enable/disable various
administrative features based on whether an organization is corporate
or community, we discuss those issues in the realm creation form.
Before we actually implement any such features, we'll want to make
sure users understand what type of organization they are a member of.

Choice of org_type (via radio button) has been added to the realm
creation flow and the realm creation management command, and the
open-realm option removed.

The database defaults have not been changed, which allows our testing code
to work unchanged.

sonali0901 4869e1b0b2 test-backend: Add convenience arguments to run subsets of the tests.

umkay 798e6faa9e provision: Use NVM to install node and npm. 
NVM takes a specific node version and installs the node package and
a corresponding compatible npm package.

We use it in a somewhat hackish way to install node/npm globally with
a pinned version, since that's how we actually want to consume node in
our development environment.

Other details:
- Travis CI now is configured to use the version of node installed by
provision; the easiest way to do this was to sabotage the existing node
installation.
- jsdom is upgraded to a current version, which both requires recent
node and also is required for the tests to pass with recent node.
This fixes running the node tests on Xenial.

Fixes #1498.

the Virtualbox provider.

Kouhei Sutou 683f49aa99 Support full text search for all languages using pgroonga. 
This adds support for using PGroonga to back the Zulip full-text

support languages that don't put space between terms such as Japanese,
Chinese and so on. PGroonga supports all languages including Japanese
and Chinese.

Developers will need to re-provision when rebasing past this patch for
the tests to pass, since provision is what installs the PGroonga
package and extension.

PGroonga is enabled by default in development but not in production;
the hope is that after the PGroonga support is tested further, we can
enable it by default.

Fixes #615.

Currently (https://github.com/rtfd/recommonmark/issues/3)

doc is now a bulleted list instead of a set of tables.

Sumana Harihareswara e0bc57ddb1 Rearrange docs table of contents for coherence. 
The order and structure of the Read The Docs documentation
was fairly arbitrary; here's a suggestion for how to change
its information architecture so it's more useful to a new
contributor. This adds a short Zulip overview, and a table
of contents and code contribution intro for new contributors.

Fixes: #668.

Christie Koehler e06492ec3a Improve first-time contributor docs. 
Fixes #747. Fixes #748.

This updates README.dev.md to include clear, step-by-step instructions
for setting up the Zulip dev environment Windows 10, OS X El Capitan,
Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty, and Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial. It is aimed at first-time
contributors.

I tested these instructions multiple times on each of the target
systems.

Also added is a "trobleshooting and common errors" section which
documents the most common errors contributors are likely to encounter
during setup and how to fix them.

Improvements based on feedback from @timabbott.

- Fixes whitespace issues so linter will pass.
- Updates memory requirement.
- Re-orders so operating systems are listed alphabetically.
- Updates headings to be clearer.
- Updates and adds ToC entries for clarity.
- Adds screen shot of Zulip dev environment running in browser.
- Adds details about using dev environment, including about logging.
- Misc other minor changes for clarity.
- Adds a stub for docs/logging.md
- Adds details about configuring Cygwin for native symlinks.

[substantially modified by tabbott]
 2016-05-09 09:55:18 -07:00
Umair Khan 5359e6b0d4 Convert Zulip to use Jinja2 templates. 
This results in a substantial performance improvement for all of
Zulip's backend templates.

Changes in templates:
- Change `block.super` to `super()`.
- Remove `load` tag because Jinja2 doesn't support it.
- Use `minified_js()|safe` instead of `{% minified_js %}`.
- Use `compressed_css()|safe` instead of `{% compressed_css %}`.
- `forloop.first` -> `loop.first`.
- Use `{{ csrf_input }}` instead of `{% csrf_token %}`.
- Use `{# ... #}` instead of `{% comment %}`.
- Use `url()` instead of `{% url %}`.
- Use `_()` instead of `{% trans %}` because in Jinja `trans` is a block tag.
- Use `{% trans %}` instead of `{% blocktrans %}`.
- Use `{% raw %}` instead of `{% verbatim %}`.

Changes in tools:
- Check for `trans` block in `check-templates` instead of `blocktrans`

Changes in backend:
- Create custom `render_to_response` function which takes `request` objects
  instead of `RequestContext` object. There are two reasons to do this:
    1. `RequestContext` is not compatible with Jinja2
    2. `RequestContext` in `render_to_response` is deprecated.
- Add Jinja2 related support files in zproject/jinja2 directory. It
  includes a custom backend and a template renderer, compressors for js
  and css and Jinja2 environment handler.
- Enable `slugify` and `pluralize` filters in Jinja2 environment.

Fixes #620.
