I think it makes sense to wrest the email sending from confirmation, now
that we have a clean email-sending interface in send_email. A few other
reasons:
* send_confirmation is get_link_for_object followed by send_email, but those
two functions have no arguments in common.
* Sending email through confirmation obfuscates the context dict, and is a
relatively complicated piece of the codebase anyone trying to deal with
the email system has to understand.
* The three emails previously being sent through confirmation don't have
that much in common, other than that they happen to have a confirmation
link in them.
The .split('/')[-1] in registration.py is a hack, but a hack used several
places in the codebase, so maybe one day get_link_for_object will also
return the confirmation_key.
We're about to make a change where we no longer deal with confirmation
objects in these email pathways.
The "if settings.DEVELOPMENT and realm_creation" is a bit of a hack, but no
worse a hack as was there before, I think. I think it's also less confusing
if the method signature matches what happens in production.
Server settings should just be added to the context in build_email, so that
the individual email pathways (and later, the email testing framework)
doesn't have to worry about it.
We now pre-populate the streams in DEFAULT_NEW_REALM_STREAMS
(social/general/zulip, unless somebody changes settings.py) with
welcome messages. This makes the streams appear to be active
right away, and it also gives the Zulip realm less of a
blank-slate feeling when you create it.
This change only affects the normal web-based create-realm flow.
It doesn't impact the management commands for creating realms
or setting default streams.
This commit replaces all uses of django.core.mail.send_mail with send_email,
other than in the password reset flow, since that code looks like it is just
a patch to Django's password reset code.
The send_email function is in a new file, since putting it in
zerver.lib.notifications would create an import loop with confirmation.models.
send_future_email will soon be moved into email.py as well.
If a user is trying to register for a mit zephyr mirroring realm, we send
them a specific registration email with a link to a few more instructions.
There is only one server that we know about that has such a realm, and that
server uses subdomains. This commit changes the logic to work in the
subdomains case, rather than in the non-subdomains case (though see next
para).
Note that the current check is deceptive, and is not actually correct in the
non-subdomains case. The prereg user has a realm only in the atypical case
of someone registering via the special URL for completely-open realms.
To do this correctly in the non-subdomains case, we would need to copy a
bunch of the logic from the beginning of accounts_register to figure out
which realm the user is signing up for, so that we can check if that realm
is a zephyr mirroring realm. Given how complicated the registration code is
already, I think it is probably not worth it at the moment. This commit also
removes the partial (deceptive) check, since I think it does more harm than
good.
Relies on the fact that all the email template names now follow the same
pattern.
Note that there was some template_prefix-like computation being done in
send_confirmation (conditioned on obj.realm.is_zephyr_mirror_realm); that
computation is now being done in the callers.
A previous commit changed a `get` (which can throw `DoesNotExist`) to use an
existing object, but kept the `try` / `except` block:

Removing this unused code path allows us to achieve 100% test coverage.
Django 1.10 has changed the implementation of this function to
match our custom implementation; in addition to this, we prefer
render().
Fixes#1914 via #4093.
This moves do_events_register, fetch_initial_state_data and friends to
a new file.
Modified significantly by tabbott for correctness and to remove unused
imports.
Fixes#3635.
