In 220c2a5ff3 I
introduced a query to find invites by delivery_email
but was still using email as the key.
For most realms `email` and `delivery_email` are
synonymous, so this temporary bug would not affect
them. For realms that restrict emails, the invite
would have probably failed for other reasons, but
the symptom would have been less clear.
We were using `code` to pass around messages.
The `code` field is designed to be a code, not
a human-readable message.
It's possible that we don't actually need two
flavors of messages for these type of validations,
but I didn't want to change that yet.
We **definitely** don't need to put two types of
message in the exception, so I fix that. Instead,
I just have the caller ask what level of detail
it needs.
I added a non-verbose message for the case of
system bots.
I removed the non-translated version of the message
for deactivated accounts, which didn't have test
coverage and is slightly more prone to leaking
email info that we don't want to leak.
The main purpose of this new function is to allow
us to validate emails in bulk, which we don't do
yet (still setting the stage for that).
This is still a speedup, though, since in our
caller we grab only three fields now.
And other than that, we're essentially doing
the same query for the single-email case, just
outside the loop.
This is a prep commit that will allow us
to more efficiently validate a bunch of
emails in the invite UI.
This commit does not yet change any
behavior or performance.
A secondary goal of this commit is to
prepare us to eliminate some hackiness
related to how we construct
`ValidationError` exceptions.
It preserves some quirks of the prior
implementation:
- the strings we decided to translate
here appear haphazard (and often
get ignored anyway)
- we use `msg` in most codepaths,
but use `code` for invites
Right now we never actually call this with
more than one email, but that will change
soon.
Note that part of the rationale for the inner
method here is to avoid a test coverage bug
with `continue` in loops.
This has two goals:
- sets up a future commit to bulk-validate
emails
- the extracted function is more simple,
since it just has errors, and no codes
or deactivated flags
This commit leaves us in a somewhat funny
intermediate state where we have
`action.validate_email` being a glorified
two-line function with strange parameters,
but subsequent commits will clean this up:
- we will eliminate validate_email
- we will move most of the guts of its
other callee to lib/email_validation.py
To be clear, the code is correct here, just
kinda in an ugly, temporarily-disorganized
intermediate state.
