Tim Abbott 32ff28bf24 docs: Add an article explaining our testing philosophy. 2020-02-03 16:32:35 -08:00
Steve Howell 752d6dc6df tools: Remove find-add-class tool.
I added this tool a few years ago, and I did have
a vision for how it would improve our codebase, but
I can't remember exactly where I was going with it.

At this point the tool is just a little too noisy
to be helpful.  An example of it creating confusion
was a recent PR where somebody was patching
user_circle_class in the PM list, and we already
had similar code in the buddy list, because they
use the same CSS.  I mean, there was possibly a way
that the code could have been structured to remove
some of the duplication, but it probably would have
just moved the complexity around.

I just don't think it's worth maintaining the tool
at this point.

David Rosa bdbc384de5 docs: Reduce the number of apparently broken links on github.
- Updated 260+ links from ".html" to ".md" to reduce the number of issues
reported about hyperlinks not working when viewing docs on Github.
- Removed temporary workaround that suppressed all warnings reported
by sphinx build for every link ending in ".html".

Details:
The recent upgrade to recommonmark==0.5.0 supports auto-converting
".md" links to ".html" so that the resulting HTML output is correct.

Notice that links pointing to a heading i.e. "../filename.html#heading",
were not updated because recommonmark does not auto-convert them.
These links do not generate build warnings and do not cause any issues.
However, there are about ~100 such links that might still get misreported
as broken links.  This will be a follow-up issue.

Background:
docs: pip upgrade recommonmark and CommonMark #13013
docs: Allow .md links between doc pages #11719

Fixes #11087.

Anders Kaseorg 6701c4463c search: Remove now unnecessary tsearch_extra dependency.
Now that we're implemented tsearch_extras in pure postgres, we no
longer need a custom extension.  This should help us considerably, as
it means we no longer need to ship custom apt packages at all.

Fixes #467.

Wyatt Hoodes a109508e34 typing: Remove now-unnecessary conditional import.
As a result of dropping support for trusty, we can remove our old
pattern of putting `if False` before importing the typing module,
which was essential for Python 3.4 support, but not required and maybe
harmful on newer versions.

Tim Abbott 8a04284c62 docs: Rewrite translation guide to be much more user-facing.
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.

Steve Howell 6b39d6004e zjquery: Use Proxy to detect undefined stubs.
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.

Samuel Searles-Bryant c87893feea docs: Update .html links to .md.
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.

Steve Howell fca5cec2af node tests: Remove features to output HTML to files.
I don't think anybody ever really used this feature, which I
developed but don't even use myself.  It kind of runs counter
to the minimalist approach of the rest of node tests.

I would eventually like to re-think the template tests altogether.
They're slow, and we could solve that somewhat by replacing
jsdon/jquery with an HTML parser library to verify structural
things.

It's also possible that we can just rely on our template linters
to catch the biggest class of errors (malformed tags) and let
code review do the rest.

And it's also possible that we should make a second attempt to
ramp up tooling on making it easy to verify templates, but it
doesn't have to be part of the node tests.  If we did that, we
would also potentially use tooling for Python-side templates.

gooca 64dac1bb2e Docs: Added "connect the zulip upstream repo" to more places. 2018-03-18 23:02:09 -07:00
Rishi Gupta 191f8f1b39 left sidebar: Change Home to All messages.
We made this change because users often unnecessarily click "Home"
first in their use of Zulip, because it seems appealing.  While "All
messages" isn't quite precise (it doesn't include muted streams), it
does describe relatively simply the interleaved view that this
represents.

This commit leaves everything as "home" in the code, and only changes
user-visible strings and docs. Changing the code will be a big project;
there are hundreds of relevant occurrences in variable names, etc.

Further, we'll probably want to convert those various variable names
in different ways.

once this is merged and ReadTheDocs is updated).
