This commit serves as the first step in supporting "public export" as a
webapp feature. The refactoring was done as a means to allow calling
the export logic from elsewhere in the codebase.
This is important because upcoming features will include slightly more
complex logic in post_process_state that we'd ideally like to be
included in what this suite tests.
This requires a few related changes:
* A small change to post_process_state to sort the realm_users objects
by user_id to ensure those data structures are stable.
* Improvements to the logic for checking if the initial state has
changed to use match_states for better output.
Extend the list of users that have to be notified when a message is
changed, so that in addition to users who have a UserMessage row, any
users who subscribed later to a stream with history public to
subscribers will also get the update.
Fixes: #8750.
This adds experimental support in /register for sending key
statistical data on the last 1000 private messages that the user is a
participant in. Because it's experimental, we require developers to
request it explicitly in production (we don't use these data yet in
the webapp, and it likely carries some perf cost).
We expect this to be extremely helpful in initializing the mobile app
user experience for showing recent private message conversations.
See the code comments, but this has been heavily optimized to be very
efficient and do all the filtering work at the database layer so that
we minimize network transit with the database.
Fixes#11944.
Certain payloads for account updates do not include the
previous_attributes that allow us to figure out what was actually
updated. So, we just ignore just payloads.
This is in response to a support ticket where the user had a closed left
sidebar, had added an organization, and then couldn't figure out how to
switch organizations. They had googled and found "The desktop app makes it
easy to switch between different organizations" in our help docs, which was
not sufficiently helpful.
Previously, we had some expensive-to-calculate keys in
zulip_default_context, especially around enabled authentication
backends, which in total were a significant contributor to the
performance of various logged-out pages. Now, these keys are only
computed for the login/registration pages where they are needed.
This is a moderate performance optimization for the loading time of
many logged-out pages.
Closes#11929.
Previously, we could 500 if an organization administrator scanned
possible PreregistrationUser IDs looking for a valid invitation they
can interact with.
They couldn't do anything, so no security issue, but this fixes that
case to just be a 400 error as it should be.
With the previous commit, fixes#1836.
As specified in the issue above, we make
get_email_gateway_message_string_from_address raise an exception if
it doesn't recognise the email gateway address pattern. Then, we make
appropriate adjustments in the codepaths which call this function.
These functions don't really belong in actions.py, so we move them out,
into email_mirror_helpers.py. They can't go directly into
email_mirror.py or we'd get circular imports resulting in ImportError.
The hope is that by having a shorter list of initial streams, it'll
avoid some potential confusion confusion about the value of topics.
At the very least, having 5 streams each with 1 topic was not a good
way to introduce Zulip.
This commit minimizes changes to the message content in
`send_initial_realm_messages` to keep the diff readable. Future commits will
reshape the content.
There were several problems with the old format:
* The sender was not necessarily the sender; it was the person who did
the deletion (which could be an organization administrator)
* It didn't include the ID of the sender, just the email address.
* It didn't include the recipient ID, instead having a semi-malformed
recipient_type_id under the weird name recipient_user_ids.
Since nothing was relying on the old behavior, we can just fix the
event structure.
